The Life and Death of John Piscator, who dyed Anno Christi 1625.
[_]

The attribution of this poem is questionable.

This John Piscator born at Argentine,
For his rare parts in Arts did fairly shine
In Herborn, where Professor he became,
And exercis'd that place with so much fame,
That many Students out of Germany,
France, Poland, and from out of Hungary,
Came flocking thither for his grave direction,
Which he afforded them with sweet affection:
I'th Germane tongue the Bible he translated
And it with learn'd Analisis ornated;
And thus his dayes in pious pains being spent,
At fourscore years his soule to heaven he sent.
