The Life and Death of Hieronimus Zanchius.

That light from others that did still abide
Within his breast, his soul was alwayes free
T'advance the works of reall piety;
Uertue, and gravity were both combin'd
Within the ceture of his breast, and shin'd
With equall luster; all that heard his voyce
Were fil'd with raptures, and would much rejoyce
At his discourse, for what his tongue exprest
Alwayes proceeded from a reall breast.
Let his examples teach us how to stand
Firmely obedient to our Gods command:
That at the last we may rejoyce, and sing
Praises with Zanchy to heav'ns glorious King.
