Upon the most Hospitable, and Courteous Gentleman, the Worshipful, Thomas Lewis, Esq; of Langorse.

As at a fountain every thirsty soul
May freely drink, and fill his empty bowl;
So doth his kindness, and his bounty flow,
Like some high tide, which doth no measure know;
As the pure air is from base mixture free,
Without all vapours, or malignity;
So his untainted heart disdains to be
A friend to Schism, or Disloyalty:
As on a Rock a house doth firmly stand,
And bravely scorn both wind and rains command;
So his most Noble resolution stood
Firm for the Church, the King, and Countreys good.
