His predecessours praises to inherit:
Who for's great learning and his parts most rare
Was Regius Professour, Doct'r oth' Chair:
Of Exeter Colledge with approbation
Of all that knew him even to admiration:
I th'Schoolmen, and the Fathers so well seen
As if he had Seraphick Doctor been.
A pious and most painefull Preacher known
A faithfull zealous friend to Truth; and One
That heartily did hate idolatry,
Who as he liv'd, a precious Saint did dye.
