TO
THE
LOVERS
OF
HONOUR
&
POESIE
.
GENTLEMEN
,
YOu
whose
constitutions
are
even
and
equall
,
not
over-balanced
with
earthly
and
base
metall
,
love
Honour
and
Gallantry
in
any
man
,
&
virtus
in
hoste
probatur
.
You
who
know
God
made
all
things
by
his
owne
Rule
of
Proportion
,
(
in
weight
,
measure
and
number
:
)
you
who
are
friends
to
that
Divine
,
Noble
,
and
Royall
Art
of
Poesy
,
for
what
is
it
but
well
weighed
words
,
made
even
by
that
Lesbian
Rule
of
Proportion
?
you
can
best
judge
of
these
phancies
dedicated
to
you
,
as
they
are
meant
.
The
subject
of
my
Poetry
is
noble
,
and
the
noblest
of
Gods
creatures
,
Man
,
brave
men
,
loyal
men
,
who
have
dyed
like
Ionathan
and
his
brothers
,
either
with
the
King
,
or
in
his
Cause
,
(
most
of
them
)
the
other
were
worthy
a
better
Muse
as
well
as
they
.
This
way
of
service
to
the
memory
of
the
dead
wants
not
presidents
worthy
our
imitations
,
Kings
and
Prophets
,
and
the
greatest
Law-giver
,
whom
I
will
take
for
my
first
president
of
Poetry
,
even
Moses
,
who
from
Gods
owne
mouth
gave
the
Law
to
his
owne
people
:
he
composed
such
a
song
,
as
the
Lambe
and
Angels
make
use
of
it
,
(
Apoc.
15.
)
which
was
his
song
of
deliverance
he
left
composed
,
and
so
first
sanctified
Poetry
,
as
Christ
and
his
Apostles
in
the
New
Testament
by
the
allegation
of
the
Psalmes
and
Prophets
,
who
were
both
Poets
and
Vates
.
Also
S.
Paul
sanctified
the
Heathen
Poets
.
David
,
vir
secundùm
cor
Dei
,
that
pious
Prince
,
that
martiall
King
,
that
glorious
man
of
God
,
truly
deserved
that
glorious
Epithet
,
Princeps
Poetarum
.
Solomon
,
the
wisest
of
men
,
composed
his
Songs
and
Canticles
.
David
in
this
way
of
Poesy
made
an
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
for
Saul
and
Ionathan
.
And
Ieremy
made
the
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
for
good
Iosias
.
He
that
goes
up
to
the
mountaine
of
God
,
shall
meet
the
Prophets
with
musicall
raptures
.
The
Jewes
buryed
their
dead
with
great
ceremony
,
and
had
their
Praeficaes
,
women
singers
,
their
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
their
songs
of
mourning
and
lamentation
,
their
burning
of
Incense
and
sweet
odours
for
their
Kings
,
and
solemn
mournings
for
their
Princes
.
They
mourned
and
fasted
(
1
Sam.
31.
13.
and
2
Sam.
1.
12.
)
for
their
Kings
,
they
mourned
many
dayes
,
as
for
Moses
and
Ioshua
,
and
so
for
Iosias
;
for
whom
(
as
I
said
)
Ieremy
made
the
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
.
The
chief
mourner
at
every
resting
place
sung
the
usuall
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
or
as
we
call
it
,
the
burden
of
the
song
;
like
that
in
Ier.
9.
18.
that
our
eyes
may
run
downe
with
teares
,
and
our
eye-lids
gush
out
with
waters
.
And
this
they
did
in
hope
of
Resurrection
,
as
well
as
honour
of
the
dead
,
for
they
comforted
their
friends
with
places
of
Scripture
fullest
of
comfort
,
as
that
of
Esay
25.
8.
He
will
swallow
up
death
in
victory
,
and
wipe
away
all
teares
:
And
Psal.
72.
16.
They
shall
flourish
and
spring
againe
as
the
grasse
on
the
earth
.
And
they
called
the
Church-yard
,
or
burying
place
,
BETH
CHAIIM
,
Domus
viventium
,
the
house
of
the
living
.
The
Primitive
Church
used
such
Ceremonies
in
this
way
,
as
would
passe
for
Popery
amongst
us
now
adayes
▪
though
it
was
in
the
purest
times
of
the
Church
used
,
(
so
much
as
it
was
by
mistake
abused
)
and
turned
to
Idolatry
.
But
if
that
were
a
just
exception
against
lawfull
Ceremonies
,
it
may
stand
as
well
against
Doctrine
as
Discipline
,
for
both
have
beene
abused
,
the
one
by
Heretiques
,
the
other
by
Schismatiques
,
and
both
ought
to
be
observed
,
the
one
in
ordine
ad
esse
Ecclesiae
,
the
other
ad
bene
esse
.
So
this
kind
of
Poesie
hath
warrant
beyond
exception
,
and
this
ceremony
of
Buryall
:
He
who
wanted
it
amongst
the
Jewes
was
said
to
have
the
buryall
of
an
Asse
,
so
Ier.
22.
Ieconia
vvas
said
to
have
such
a
buryall
.
Thus
much
I
have
said
to
satisfie
the
curious
,
or
rather
ignorant
concerning
Poesy
,
and
the
honourable
mention
and
memory
of
the
dead
:
And
they
who
had
it
not
in
the
Primitive
Church
(
if
it
could
be
had
)
were
said
to
have
insepultam
sepulturam
.
As
for
my
Characters
and
Translations
,
they
are
fruits
of
Phansie
,
and
vvere
but
as
Salads
are
to
solid
dishes
,
to
sharpen
the
appetite
:
so
these
to
my
serious
studies
vvere
,
or
as
Davids
Harp
,
to
the
melancholy
thoughts
of
my
imprisonment
.
I
must
acknowledge
(
with
thanks
to
God
)
I
found
singular
comfort
in
this
way
,
and
this
sufferance
,
and
that
it
set
an
edge
upon
my
over-tyred
and
dulled
braine
,
and
these
Phancies
vvere
the
fire
vvarmed
them
.
My
vvish
is
,
they
may
be
accepted
of
such
as
know
how
to
judge
,
and
have
so
much
honour
not
to
misinterpret
good
meaning
,
and
my
zeale
to
the
Cause
vvherein
I
suffer
.
I
thanke
heaven
,
God
hath
supplyed
me
vvith
a
large
measure
of
patience
and
comfort
,
as
pledges
of
his
favour
,
and
so
much
charity
▪
I
wish
them
rather
a
right
understanding
,
then
any
ill
;
and
such
a
proportion
of
inward
comfort
as
may
make
them
as
happy
in
their
Liberty
as
I
am
in
prison
.
Let
them
therefore
with
Charity
reade
,
what
they
find
in
this
little
Volume
,
and
such
an
encouragement
may
produce
to
the
view
of
the
world
,
my
more
serious
Studies
,
to
which
these
were
but
a
preparative
,
and
as
I
said
before
,
a
salad
to
more
solid
dishes
,
which
I
will
promise
you
shall
be
served
up
,
if
this
please
;
if
not
,
I
have
not
lost
my
patience
,
much
lesse
the
comfort
of
my
phancie
,
(
which
none
can
take
from
me
)
and
I
can
content
my selfe
with
that
Greek
saying
,
which
suits
me
as
well
as
if
it
had
been
made
for
me
,
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}

CHARACT
.
I.
The
Character
of
His
Royall
Majestie
.
MY
Soveraigne
is
a
King
,
whose
Vertues
make
his
claim
as
good
to
a
Crown
,
as
his
blood
and
his
birth-right
doth
to
this
:
yet
no
King
in
Europe
can
derive
his
right
from
more
royall
,
vertuous
,
and
victorious
Predecessors
then
he
,
nor
better
prove
his
title
in
relation
to
all
three
,
then
my
Master
can
.
What
the
Brittains
lost
to
the
Saxons
,
they
to
the
Danes
,
and
the
Norman
got
from
both
,
is
his
birth-right
,
besides
the
Kingdomes
of
Scotland
and
Ireland
,
and
Principality
of
Wales
,
additions
to
the
Normans
Conquest
:
Had
he
begun
his
first
Quinquenium
,
as
he
hath
spent
these
last
,
and
drawne
that
blood
abroad
which
hath
been
spilt
at
home
;
had
he
been
as
quick
in
justice
,
as
he
hath
been
apt
to
mercie
;
had
he
brought
in
the
Scots
into
this
Kingdome
,
(
as
his
Father
did
;
)
had
they
not
been
called
in
,
my
Master
had
been
the
most
powerfull
and
the
most
happy
King
in
Christendome
,
but
he
was
born
to
raigne
when
the
Aspects
of
the
Planets
were
malignant
,
and
in
unhappy
conjunctions
or
oppositions
,
in
relation
to
his
Kingdomes
,
disposing
Subjects
to
innovation
in
Religion
,
and
immoderate
desires
of
libertie
,
(
as
that
great
Master
in
Astrologie
,
Tichobrahi
,
in
his
Observations
upon
that
fatall
Comet
preceded
the
Germane
war
,
foretold
.
)
T
is
true
,
Planets
may
dispose
,
but
cannot
necessitate
;
Imperant
astra
sensui
,
non
rationi
,
nil
voluntatem
impellunt
,
for
otherwise
they
should
be
guilty
of
our
sins
,
not
we
.
When
my
Master
is
upon
his
Throne
of
Justice
,
he
is
like
the
tongue
of
the
Ballance
,
and
makes
the
Scales
stand
right
and
equall
betwixt
the
extreames
,
Mercie
and
Judgement
:
but
God
cast
into
the
scale
of
Mercie
some
grains
of
his
favour
,
which
turn'd
the
scale
,
and
made
him
the
most
mild
,
pious
,
and
best
beloved
Prince
of
Christendome
:
yet
who
can
say
that
ever
he
feared
to
doe
justice
,
or
spared
it
,
if
not
over-intreated
by
such
as
made
too
great
an
advantage
of
his
goodnesse
?
It
was
a
saying
of
Seneca's
,
that
Parcere
omnibus
&
nullis
est
aequa
crudelitas
,
but
it
is
greater
cruelty
to
the
good
to
spare
all
,
then
to
the
bad
to
spare
none
.
Seneca
sayes
,
Clementia
tutum
Regem
in
aperto
ostendit
,
for
that
,
he
said
,
begot
the
love
of
the
people
,
and
I
say
it
should
make
him
raigne
in
the
hearts
and
affections
of
his
Subjects
;
but
never
good
King
was
worse
understood
,
nor
more
unhappily
mistaken
.
All
I
can
or
will
say
,
is
,
the
faults
which
were
laid
to
his
charge
in
the
beginning
of
his
troubles
,
(
but
whispered
)
are
now
thwarted
so
,
that
they
become
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
contradictory
one
to
the
other
,
and
one
of
them
must
fall
.
At
first
he
was
weak
,
now
he
is
thought
too
politique
;
at
first
easie
,
now
too
stiffe
;
at
first
too
peacefull
,
now
too
martiall
:
In
a
word
,
I
need
not
write
his
Character
,
if
his
History
be
not
wronged
;
I
cannot
make
so
good
an
one
,
as
that
will
prove
him
:
To
which
I
leave
him
,
but
with
hopes
to
see
him
break
through
this
cloud
,
(
which
over-shadowes
him
)
and
shine
as
bright
and
gloriously
as
ever
,
or
more
,
(
improved
by
these
sad
tryalls
)
which
shall
be
my
Prayer
for
my
Master
,
and
ought
to
be
of
every
loving
Subject
for
his
Soveraigne
.
II.
The
Character
of
the
Queenes
Majestie
.
THe
Queene
is
a
Lady
of
Illustrious
blood
and
birth
,
as
any
of
Europe
,
(
except
her
own
daughters
)
whose
Father
casts
the
scale
,
and
gives
it
them
,
derived
from
him
,
who
is
really
one
of
the
best
borne
Princes
of
Christendome
,
except
his
owne
Son
.
She
was
daughter
to
that
Mars
of
France
,
Henry
the
Great
,
(
truly
the
greatest
France
ever
had
)
as
well
for
Royall
blood
,
Heroick
vertues
,
as
power
and
dominion
.
At
home
few
Princes
were
so
beloved
,
abroad
none
more
feared
,
for
his
Sword
was
as
glorious
as
his
Wisdom
.
Her
mother
was
a
Lady
of
great
blood
and
wisdome
,
as
appeared
by
her
Government
of
France
,
(
a
people
uncapable
of
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
the
government
of
Woman
)
that
must
,
and
wil
confesse
it self
more
happy
in
her
regiment
,
then
it
hath
been
ever
since
(
although
victorious
)
under
the
service
or
command
of
her
two
great
States
men
the
Cardinals
,
she
commanding
that
in
love
and
obedience
,
which
reason
of
State
hath
since
conquered
in
France
.
The
beauty
of
our
Queene
was
as
royall
and
soveraigne
as
her
bloud
and
vertues
,
and
true
parallels
,
yet
concur
in
the
centre
.
Wisdome
and
Constancie
are
her
portion
in
this
world
,
and
her
Piety
bids
faire
for
the
next
.
Her
Wisdome
appeares
to
all
admiration
,
for
she
hath
out-done
all
agents
of
her
sexe
,
much
more
of
her
quality
,
in
her
negotiations
,
her
love
adding
wings
to
her
spirit
,
and
that
strength
to
her
body
,
to
expedite
what
the
most
active
here
or
abroad
thought
improbable
,
nay
impossible
to
be
effected
.
For
her
Constancie
,
I
wonder
at
that
,
more
then
this
,
that
for
a
Crowne
she
dare
not
change
her
Religion
,
having
such
a
President
as
her
glorious
Father
,
(
in
all
but
that
)
and
yet
admire
it
more
,
considering
her
love
to
the
King
,
and
the
advantage
her
wisdome
assures
the
change
would
bring
to
their
designes
,
the
perfection
of
the
presidents
,
the
one
in
constancie
,
the
other
in
change
,
Ladies
being
more
apt
to
follow
the
old
French
,
then
the
new
English
fashion
.
If
I
knew
her
not
wise
,
as
royall
and
pious
as
either
,
I
could
most
admire
her
favours
to
those
of
our
Nation
in
France
,
considering
her
sufferance
,
and
her
Husbands
here
;
yet
she
is
still
a
Sanctuary
to
her
Husbands
friends
,
(
a
rare
president
of
Charitie
)
and
in
all
this
so
cheerfull
,
she
rather
encourageth
others
,
then
seemes
to
sinke
under
such
a
weight
of
afflictions
,
and
in
this
exceeds
her selfe
as
much
as
her
sexe
in
the
other
.
Though
I
would
not
have
her
mutable
,
yet
from
my
soule
I
wish
her
conformable
to
the
King
in
her
Religion
,
which
must
be
the
work
of
heaven
;
In
the
meane
time
I
wish
that
we
were
as
really
charitable
,
as
she
is
truly
pious
,
that
she
could
see
our
faith
by
our
good
works
,
that
they
might
as
much
convince
her
conscience
to
change
,
as
reason
of
State
might
and
does
move
her
reason
to
that
conformitie
,
and
truly
binds
her
to
it
.
In
a
word
,
were
she
thus
,
I
know
no
Nation
under
heaven
so
happy
as
we
must
then
confesse
our selves
,
who
have
now
made
our selves
Ludibrium
mundi
,
the
scorne
of
the
world
,
as
much
despised
abroad
,
as
we
lately
were
glorious
:
who
like
Esops
dog
,
have
forsaken
the
substance
,
and
snatched
at
shadowes
,
and
our
losse
is
really
as
irreparable
,
as
his
is
fained
,
if
heaven
help
not
.
III.
The
hopefull
Prince
.
AS
the
sea
is
the
Centre
of
the
Element
of
water
,
to
which
all
rivers
tend
,
and
in
which
they
emptie
their
fulnesse
:
So
is
my
Prince
the
Sea
of
Royall
vertues
,
the
Centre
of
Princely
blood
,
from
which
we
hope
springs
of
vertues
,
and
honor
,
nay
rivers
will
break
forth
and
inrich
the
world
in
future
;
As
all
Rayes
have
a
point
where
they
begin
,
and
a
Centre
or
point
of
concourse
either
directly
or
by
reflex
where
they
meet
or
terminate
,
so
there
is
no
line
or
ray
of
vertue
,
that
meets
not
in
this
point
of
concourse
,
no
point
of
pietie
of
honor
which
we
may
not
petere
principia
from
his
Royall
Progenitors
,
and
terminate
it
in
him
.
Fashions
follow
the
humours
of
the
people
,
and
they
the
dispositions
of
mens
mindes
,
dispositions
are
much
governed
(
in
respect
of
the
remote
cause
)
by
the
influence
and
aspects
of
the
Stars
,
and
that
by
the
supreame
cause
of
causes
:
If
we
looke
with
the
eyes
of
nature
,
we
may
wonder
at
the
times
;
if
of
grace
;
wee
have
deserved
the
worst
wee
suffer
,
by
abusing
the
best
blessings
wee
injoyed
.
If
this
hinder
not
,
I
know
no
reason
,
but
wee
may
looke
for
happy
times
,
and
derive
them
from
these
lesser
wheeles
,
moved
by
the
greater
.
Looke
on
my
Prince
,
if
you
(
Martiall
spirits
)
expect
action
,
and
derive
him
from
that
Boanerges
,
the
sonne
of
Thunder
,
Henry
of
France
,
the
greatest
of
that
name
,
nay
of
her
Kings
:
If
for
peacefull
and
politique
government
,
looke
northward
upon
King
James
the
Solomon
of
his
time
,
the
Prince
of
peace
on
earth
:
If
you
looke
to
be
glorious
in
forraigne
conquests
,
derive
him
from
William
the
Conqueror
(
who
began
younger
then
he
)
and
with
happy
successe
subdued
his
Rebels
,
joyned
with
the
power
of
France
,
and
made
both
Henry
of
France
and
Philip
his
Sonne
know
,
that
he
meant
to
be
a
Conqueror
:
If
you
looke
for
glorious
action
further
from
home
,
derive
him
from
the
First
Richard
,
or
the
First
Edward
,
whose
names
were
as
terrible
to
Infidells
,
as
William
to
the
Saxons
,
&
as
much
renowned
amongst
all
Christian
Princes
:
If
nearer
home
,
draw
his
line
from
the
Victorious
Edwards
,
the
glorious
Henries
:
If
you
would
have
him
subtilly
politicke
,
with
lesse
respect
to
Soveraign
honour
,
fetch
him
from
the
Eleventh
Lewis
of
France
:
If
more
wise
and
truly
valiant
,
and
better
skill'd
to
govern
the
English
,
either
in
the
Martiall
or
Civill
way
,
or
Politicke
,
derive
him
from
him
,
from
whom
he
derives
his
right
to
the
Crowne
,
the
Seaventh
Henrie
:
If
you
would
have
him
pious
and
patient
,
and
struggle
with
his
Stars
with
prudent
magnanimitie
:
joyned
with
these
vertues
,
looke
upon
his
Royall
Parents
,
and
pray
that
like
our
third
Henrie
,
they
after
these
stormes
may
be
as
happy
in
my
Prince
their
Sonne
,
our
hopes
,
as
he
and
his
Queene
were
in
our
First
Edward
,
in
relation
to
both
Kingdomes
:
that
after
as
long
a
raigne
of
his
Royall
Parents
,
he
may
(
as
he
did
)
give
law
to
both
Kingdomes
,
and
settle
the
three
Kingdomes
,
and
leave
them
in
as
much
glorie
,
as
he
did
this
.
IV.
A
true
Character
of
the
Illustrious
James
Duke
of
York
.
THe
Duke
of
Yorke
is
a
Prince
for
his
birth
may
compare
with
any
of
Europe
,
(
being
my
Master
,
his
Brothers
parallel
)
and
I
dare
say
cannot
suffer
in
the
comparison
.
He
ownes
his
Royall
Father
,
and
is
as
like
him
as
Nature
could
cast
him
in
so
Princely
a
mould
:
so
like
he
is
,
we
may
invert
that
Royall
Epithet
was
given
his
Father
,
Jacobissimus
Carolus
,
to
Carolissimus
Jacobus
:
and
he
makes
it
good
.
Those
who
know
him
,
know
I
flatter
him
not
,
if
I
say
his
disposition
ownes
his
Illustrious
blood
,
and
his
Gallantry
speaks
the
languages
of
his
birth
.
I
dare
promise
his
Princely
Brother
a
gallant
second
,
and
as
faithfull
as
he
can
hope
him
.
As
valiant
Clarence
was
to
our
glorious
5.
Henry
,
so
shall
James
be
to
his
victorious
Brother
.
Had
Frances
Mars
her
glorious
4.
Henry
seene
these
blossomes
springing
from
his
Flower-de-luce
,
he
would
have
rejoyced
as
much
as
so
great
a
King
could
,
to
see
his
dearest
daughter
,
and
his
so
lively
Character
their
mother
so
happy
in
this
blessing
,
as
it
repayres
or
counterballances
the
sad
condition
of
her
present
fortune
:
And
he
would
have
righted
his
interest
in
them
,
and
have
made
England
know
he
was
their
Grandfather
,
(
which
the
world
shall
see
by
their
glorious
actions
.
)
It
is
not
novelty
,
out
of
our
Histories
to
produce
examples
,
that
our
wisest
and
most
victorious
Kings
and
Princes
have
by
a
supreme
power
been
raised
out
of
the
dust
,
and
have
erected
stately
monuments
and
glorious
Tropheys
upon
such
sad
foundations
as
ours
must
build
on
;
So
William
triumphed
over
his
Rebellious
Normans
,
in
spite
of
the
power
of
France
,
and
after
over
the
English
:
so
our
second
Henry
,
our
third
,
our
fourth
,
and
seventh
,
(
to
omit
others
)
made
themselves
glorious
in
spite
of
suppression
and
sad
tryals
,
and
were
(
like
gold
refined
in
the
fornace
)
made
more
glorious
,
happy
,
and
wise
by
their
afflictions
,
for
the
sweetnesse
of
changes
appeares
best
in
oppositions
.
He
knowes
not
true
happinesse
,
who
hath
not
felt
some
adversity
.
Sharp
Schools
make
the
best
Scholars
.
Who
knowes
not
the
sad
effects
of
Warre
,
cannot
value
Peace
.
And
no
Prince
manages
Peace
so
happily
,
as
he
who
knowes
the
evil
of
War
,
yet
knowes
how
to
put
on
his
Armes
,
as
well
as
to
lay
them
aside
.
In
a
word
,
this
hardship
our
hopes
have
suffered
,
hath
much
improved
them
,
and
I
dare
promise
to
the
world
happinesse
from
it
,
and
I
hope
a
share
in
his
,
whose
title
entitles
my
hope
and
interest
in
him
,
as
well
as
my
Princely
Master
.
V.
The
Character
of
a
Noble
Generall
.
A
Noble
Generall
is
a
man
who
hath
peace
with
heaven
,
and
forgets
not
he
is
to
make
his
accompt
to
God
,
as
well
as
man
,
and
therefore
dares
not
doe
that
he
knowes
not
how
to
answer
to
God
,
in
respect
of
his
conscience
,
nor
man
in
regard
of
his
honour
:
he
knowes
he
is
not
fit
for
command
of
others
,
is
not
master
of
himselfe
,
and
therefore
studyes
that
first
;
yet
is
not
such
selfe-lover
that
he
forgets
his
duty
to
either
God
or
his
Prince
,
it
being
no
question
,
whether
a
Generall
should
obey
God
,
or
man
,
he
first
examines
the
quarrell
before
he
accepts
his
Commission
,
and
that
satisfyed
dares
dye
in
it
,
and
that
is
his
rule
by
which
he
directs
his
service
.
And
as
the
Seaman
by
his
compasse
stears
his
course
by
that
Card
,
yet
varies
his
course
as
he
does
in
his
voyage
,
applying
his
experience
to
Occasions
,
yet
still
with
an
eye
upon
his
Card
,
he
often
turnes
his
eyes
inward
,
and
there
findes
his
Character
of
his
owne
charge
:
An
Army
of
as
different
humours
,
and
dispositions
,
as
Hannibals
Army
was
,
and
desires
to
governe
his
way
:
never
one
Nation
was
more
intire
in
obedience
,
never
Generall
more
absolute
in
command
,
never
Generall
studyed
his
Commission
more
,
never
Army
executed
it
better
.
Had
Carthage
beene
as
good
a
master
,
as
he
a
servant
,
he
had
mastred
Rome
.
He
cannot
be
happy
in
command
,
that
knows
not
to
obey
,
and
by
that
learnt
to
command
.
That
Prince
or
State
puts
an
Army
into
a
young
Souldiers
charge
,
its
probable
may
pay
as
dear
for
his
Learning
,
as
he
that
trusts
his
fortune
in
a
Ship
without
a
Pilot
:
If
he
speede
well
he
is
more
beholden
to
chance
,
then
discretion
;
this
disadvantage
is
too
great
for
a
wise
man
to
adventure
the
trust
,
and
an
honest
man
the
charge
:
Passions
and
sensualities
are
not
more
obnoxious
to
the
soule
in
the
naturall
Body
,
then
these
are
to
a
Generall
in
relation
to
the
body
Politique
,
good
servants
they
are
,
but
dangerous
masters
:
As
the
senses
present
objects
to
the
Phancie
,
and
that
to
the
intellect
,
yet
still
the
Will
commands
:
so
he
is
not
in
this
without
his
well-chosen
and
well-rewarded
intelligence
and
correspondency
,
nor
without
his
owne
Jugdement
,
and
his
choice
Councells
,
yet
keepes
still
the
prerogative
of
his
command
,
not
so
premptory
,
as
absolute
.
And
as
the
soule
loves
every
member
,
yet
makes
use
of
it
,
and
communicates
liberally
to
its
occasions
,
as
it
relates
to
the
body
,
so
he
commands
not
but
with
as
much
love
,
yet
indulges
not
so
any
member
of
his
body
,
nor
sense
,
or
faculty
of
his
soul
,
but
he
prefers
the
body
to
any
member
,
and
the
soul
to
any
sense
,
and
will
rather
curbe
,
and
suppresse
an
insolency
or
presumption
in
either
,
then
indanger
the
whole
,
and
knows
that
is
lesse
cruelty
to
the
good
to
spare
all
,
then
to
the
bad
to
save
none
.
He
looks
upon
his
Officers
as
his
senses
,
and
his
Souldiers
as
his
members
,
yet
had
rather
cut
off
a
finger
then
be
deaf
,
or
lose
a
hand
then
his
eies
.
And
this
care
of
his
is
happily
requited
with
a
dutiful
regard
and
affection
unto
his
Souldiers
.
And
yet
he
in
respect
to
his
Officers
accompts
himself
singulis
major
,
and
to
his
Army
,
universis
minor
.
In
a
word
,
as
God
trusts
the
soule
with
the
charge
and
command
of
the
body
,
so
is
he
trusted
with
his
Army
,
and
is
as
loath
to
hazard
that
,
but
feares
not
:
Much
lesse
denies
to
deliver
up
his
commission
,
or
make
his
accompt
,
when
called
for
,
by
the
supream
power
,
and
hath
alwayes
his
accompt
ready
in
respect
to
that
supreame
Commission
of
Gods
,
or
that
inferiour
of
Mans
,
and
therefore
feares
no
more
to
hazard
or
leave
it
(
when
a
just
occasion
commands
it
)
then
a
well
satisfyed
Christian
to
dye
in
God
and
his
Princes
just
cause
,
whose
faith
hath
already
Crowned
his
head
with
glorious
Martyrdom
,
and
such
a
Generall
deserves
as
well
the
glory
of
a
Rom●
Triumph
,
as
the
Martyr
his
Aureola
.
VI
.
A
true
English
Protestant
IS
one
who
professeth
the
Doctrine
and
Discipline
of
the
Church
of
England
,
established
first
by
General
Councels
and
Synods
,
and
after
confirmed
by
the
knowne
Lawes
of
the
Kingdome
,
and
professeth
against
the
contrary
.
He
sticks
to
the
Protestation
of
Ausburge
,
whence
he
had
his
name
;
he
loves
the
unity
of
the
Church
so
,
that
he
endeavours
next
her
verity
in
faith
,
her
unity
and
conformity
in
Discipline
with
that
Church
,
not
daring
to
broach
new
opinions
,
nor
preach
them
to
disturbe
the
peace
of
his
aged
Mother
.
Private
interpretations
of
Scripture
he
approves
not
,
but
submits
his
owne
,
and
maintaines
none
against
the
received
and
approved
Doctrine
of
the
Church
,
whereof
he
is
a
member
:
He
thinks
that
Evangelicall
counsel
is
to
be
observed
,
that
all
things
must
be
done
in
order
and
decencie
:
He
conceives
the
King
to
be
the
Head
of
the
Church
,
as
it
is
personall
,
not
spirituall
,
and
hath
sworne
him
Gods
Deputy
in
Government
,
and
trusted
with
the
sword
,
which
he
must
not
beare
in
vaine
:
He
dares
not
question
his
Authority
,
who
is
onely
answerable
to
God
,
but
in
his
heart
honours
him
as
his
Vice-gerent
,
and
knowes
that
to
resist
his
power
,
is
to
resist
him
that
gave
it
;
and
though
the
penalty
be
damnation
,
yet
he
feares
not
that
so
much
as
the
offence
given
to
God
,
who
gave
the
power
:
He
confesses
an
obligation
to
Gods
Morall
Lawes
,
and
Mans
Judiciall
,
and
that
there
must
be
as
well
obedience
active
as
passive
,
to
the
one
,
as
the
other
:
He
knowes
Christs
spirituall
Kingdome
opposeth
not
the
temporall
claime
and
power
of
Kings
,
but
Cesar
must
have
his
tribute
(
the
badge
of
Conquest
)
as
God
must
have
his
in
the
acknowledgment
of
his
protection
.
He
dares
call
his
Soveraigne
the
Anointed
of
God
,
since
God
called
Cyrus
a
Heathen
so
,
not
for
the
holinesse
of
externall
unction
,
but
the
internall
character
of
supreame
power
,
and
Saul
a
demoniack
,
a
persecutor
,
a
murtherer
:
so
he
can
make
a
difference
between
types
and
metaphors
,
the
one
being
in
persons
,
the
other
in
words
.
He
conceives
passive
obedience
alwayes
due
to
the
power
of
the
King
,
where
active
cannot
be
performed
with
a
good
conscience
.
He
beleeves
faith
alone
cannot
,
nor
doth
justifie
without
works
,
but
both
together
,
the
first
before
God
,
the
second
before
men
.
He
beleeves
God
rewards
above
merit
,
yet
that
there
is
difference
in
glory
,
and
reward
,
though
all
have
fulnesse
.
Traditions
and
Ceremonies
he
reverences
,
as
they
are
in
Antiquity
,
and
streame
from
the
springs
of
originall
purity
,
not
to
the
necessity
of
Doctrine
,
but
Discipline
.
He
detests
Parity
in
Church
or
in
Common-wealth
,
as
tending
to
Anarchy
,
and
destroy
those
it
will
follow
.
He
thinkes
it
not
fit
to
pull
downe
the
Cantrells
of
an
Arche
till
the
key-stone
be
settled
,
and
then
the
greater
the
weight
is
,
the
stronger
it
will
be
;
he
likes
the
fabrick
of
the
old
so
well
,
he
thinks
the
change
may
be
dangerous
.
He
dares
not
sweare
against
his
conscience
,
nor
vow
implicite
obedience
to
occasionall
ordinances
.
He
thinks
no
authority
but
the
same
,
or
a
greater
then
that
to
whom
he
hath
made
a
Judicial
vow
,
can
disanull
it
.
He
is
loyall
for
Conscience
sake
to
his
Soveraigne
,
charitable
for
Gods
sake
to
his
Neighbour
,
and
dares
not
doe
that
unto
another
,
he
cannot
be
content
should
be
done
to
himselfe
;
much
lesse
rob
his
Soveraigne
of
his
birth-right
,
or
deface
Gods
character
;
he
thinks
Dixi
vos
dii
estis
belongs
supremely
to
his
Soveraign
,
ministerially
to
his
subjects
:
he
dares
not
distinguish
betwixt
the
King
and
his
Person
,
and
thinke
the
one
at
Westminster
,
the
other
in
his
Armie
;
and
hazard
that
in
the
feild
to
save
that
at
Westminster
,
he
likes
not
that
nice
distinction
forged
in
the
Scoole
of
the
Jesuits
,
derived
from
the
Devills
Logicke
:
His
heart
thinks
no
disloyall
thought
,
much
lesse
dares
he
speake
a
word
to
lessen
the
reverence
due
to
Majestie
,
not
for
feare
of
punishment
,
but
the
sinne
;
who
dares
not
forsake
his
Soveraigne
in
his
adversity
,
lest
God
deny
him
in
his
necessity
;
who
in
a
dungeon
can
finde
more
comfort
,
then
they
who
commanded
him
thither
.
He
with
Joseph
finds
his
Keepers
wrought
by
a
supreme
power
to
mercy
,
if
not
trust
,
whose
cheerfulnesse
is
a
comfort
to
his
fellow-Prisoners
,
and
no
lesse
advantage
to
himselfe
,
God
making
him
the
instrument
of
their
happinesse
in
their
adversities
,
and
him
happy
in
his
gallant
cheerfulnesse
,
and
magnanimous
patience
.
In
a
word
,
he
dares
in
his
Princes
just
quarrell
meet
death
with
as
much
courage
,
as
David
met
Goliah
,
as
Daniel
went
into
the
Lions
Den
,
or
the
three
Children
into
the
fiery
fornace
,
and
in
the
midst
of
his
tortures
,
can
with
as
much
cheerfulnesse
sing
his
Nunc
dimitte
,
as
Simeon
did
with
his
Christ
in
his
armes
.
This
is
your
true
Cavallier
.
VII
.
An
Antinomian
,
or
Anabaptisticall
Independent
IS
one
who
wonders
that
S.
Paul
would
refer
himselfe
(
though
for
conformities
sake
)
to
a
Councell
,
he
having
an
equall
share
with
Peter
in
the
division
of
the
Circumcision
,
and
the
uncircumcision
:
he
cannot
endure
to
heare
of
Councells
or
Synods
,
and
is
much
troubled
that
he
approves
of
the
Altar
,
and
yet
well
pleased
that
he
refers
the
Minister
for
his
livelihood
to
it
,
though
he
tythes
not
mint
nor
anise
(
as
not
approving
tythes
)
yet
he
neglects
the
waightiest
matters
of
the
Law
,
and
in
this
agrees
with
the
Pharisee
.
You
shall
find
him
pointed
in
the
New
Testament
(
with
a
Vae
vobis
)
who
love
the
chiefe
seats
at
feasts
,
and
make
long
prayers
in
Widdowes
houses
,
and
lead
silly
women
captive
;
He
approves
not
that
Evangelicall
councell
,
to
worke
out
salvation
with
feare
and
trembling
,
for
this
toucheth
too
much
upon
our
obligation
to
the
Law
;
Besides
,
feare
is
opposite
to
faith
,
and
trembling
to
boldnesse
;
he
is
as
bold
as
blind
Byard
,
and
scarce
will
be
beholding
to
Christ
for
his
securitie
;
He
thinks
himself
of
a
higher
form
in
the
school
of
Gods
Church
,
then
to
submit
to
the
pedagogie
of
the
Law
Morall
,
Iudiciall
,
or
Ceremoniall
;
he
hath
found
a
shorter
cut
to
heaven
then
the
Catholicke
Church
ever
heard
of
,
and
a
cheaper
,
(
faith
without
workes
)
he
thinks
Canonicall
obedience
a
badge
of
the
beast
,
and
subordination
to
temporall
or
ecclesiasticall
powers
,
of
a
forfeiture
of
the
freedome
of
faith
;
An
oath
he
avoides
as
a
snare
for
his
Conscience
,
and
is
so
tender
in
this
kinde
,
he
wisely
refuseth
the
Nationall
Covenant
;
if
he
hath
taken
the
oath
of
Supremacie
,
or
that
of
Allegiance
,
he
hath
repented
it
with
more
sorrow
and
detestation
then
any
of
his
sinnes
;
he
is
confident
the
spirituall
power
of
Christs
Kingdome
here
,
disingages
him
of
all
temporall
obligation
;
The
Hornet
is
not
a
worse
Neighbour
to
the
Bee
,
then
he
is
to
the
Presbyterian
,
and
robs
his
Hive
as
oft
both
of
his
Honie
and
Bees
;
he
talkes
much
of
a
new
began
Kingdome
of
Christ
,
set
up
in
the
hearts
and
soules
of
the
Saints
,
which
dischargeth
him
of
all
Secular
duty
.
He
is
confident
,
that
this
is
that
Kingdome
of
Glory
here
,
which
shall
last
a
thousand
yeeres
,
and
expects
no
other
.
He
hath
heard
the
last
Trumpe
,
which
like
the
voyce
of
an
Angel
is
not
heard
,
but
of
those
to
whom
it
was
sent
.
He
is
confident
Christ
hath
already
divided
the
world
into
two
parts
,
the
Goats
and
the
Sheep
,
and
they
are
severed
.
He
thrusts
the
Presbyterian
out
of
the
flock
,
as
Linsey
Wolsey
was
out
of
the
Jewish
Temple
.
He
will
not
allow
a
Bishop
and
Presbyter
to
differ
in
power
,
but
Roman-like
takes
that
himselfe
as
his
due
,
which
they
could
not
agree
on
,
and
would
make
a
Congregationall
Hierarchie
as
absolute
,
as
the
Presbyter
a
Classicall
,
or
the
Bishop
an
Episcopall
.
In
a
word
,
he
hath
spun
his
Religion
to
so
fine
a
thred
,
that
it
may
more
fitly
be
termed
a
Mysterie
then
a
Profession
:
his
Charitie
is
as
invisible
as
his
Faith
,
and
his
Hope
as
his
Charitie
:
he
is
in
this
indeed
to
be
praised
,
he
is
of
so
publike
a
spirit
,
that
he
would
have
a
community
of
all
things
:
he
can
endure
no
prerogative
but
that
of
theirs
,
(
that
of
Faith
)
which
gives
him
a
title
to
all
ours
:
and
of
so
harmlesse
an
humility
he
is
,
he
avoweth
that
we
need
no
fig-leaves
to
cover
nakednesse
,
Crescite
&
multiplicamini
is
the
first
command
,
and
all
he
sticks
to
,
he
would
have
none
baptized
but
such
as
can
give
an
account
of
their
faith
,
but
thinks
it
needlesse
to
give
any
either
to
God
or
man
of
their
works
:
he
thinks
that
Faith
is
the
forme
that
gives
the
esse
to
the
Sacraments
,
but
not
good
works
the
bene
esse
to
Faith
,
and
so
either
he
will
goe
to
heaven
without
them
,
or
else
he
thinks
that
God
doth
his
Faith
wrong
,
and
his
owne
promise
more
.
VIII
.
A
Jesuite
IS
to
the
moderate
Papist
,
as
the
Puritan
to
the
Protestant
;
For
his
originall
he
is
descended
from
Ignatius
,
and
begotten
in
spirituall
adultery
upon
the
Popes
Spouse
:
he
was
nurst
with
much
care
,
and
educated
with
as
much
in
the
Popes
Schoole
,
at
the
Austrian
charge
,
better
read
in
the
Politicks
then
Divinity
,
though
in
both
learned
beyond
the
common
reach
.
The
Anabaptist
and
hee
looke
severall
wayes
,
yet
they
are
like
Sampsons
Foxes
tyed
together
by
the
tails
with
fire-brands
,
and
commonly
endanger
the
Country
that
harbours
them
.
The
Esseni
were
not
more
austere
in
the
Jewish
Church
,
then
he
in
the
Christian
.
They
agree
in
this
both
alike
,
enemies
to
Cesar
.
He
is
to
the
Pope
,
as
the
Pharisee
was
to
the
High-Priest
,
alwayes
of
his
councell
,
commonly
of
the
Quorum
:
he
will
compasse
as
much
ground
as
either
to
gaine
a
Proselyte
:
his
endeavour
is
thankfulnesse
to
the
Pope
for
care
of
his
education
,
and
to
the
Austrian
for
his
charges
:
he
requites
them
both
,
and
becomes
an
usefull
instrument
to
advance
the
Hierarchie
of
the
one
,
and
the
Tyrannie
of
the
other
.
The
Pharisee
was
not
a
greater
observer
of
Traditions
then
he
,
nor
prouder
of
his
Philacteree
,
then
he
of
his
Order
;
he
is
so
well
vers'd
in
Questions
,
that
the
Pharisee
did
not
trouble
our
Saviour
more
with
Dilemmaes
,
then
he
with
dangerous
Problems
doth
the
Catholique
Church
;
none
improves
an
Order
more
then
hee
,
nor
is
a
greater
husband
of
the
common
stock
,
which
is
so
great
an
one
,
that
with
his
golden
key
,
and
his
pick-lock
,
or
his
scrue
of
Confession
,
he
rules
the
Councels
of
most
Princes
,
and
crooks
them
to
his
owne
ends
.
Though
he
seemes
to
deny
the
world
,
no
man
hath
a
greater
share
in
it
;
No
man
pretends
greater
piety
to
God
,
purity
and
humility
in
himselfe
,
nor
charitable
equity
to
Man
,
then
he
.
He
dares
challenge
God
to
account
,
and
thinks
him
so
great
a
debtor
,
that
he
is
able
to
leave
a
huge
treasure
of
Supererogation
to
the
Church
,
and
quit
scores
with
him
;
yet
in
conclusion
proves
a
Bankrupt
,
and
owes
more
then
he
can
ever
hope
to
pay
;
and
yet
so
proud
,
he
scornes
to
compound
with
his
Redeemer
,
or
make
use
of
his
Surety
.
He
thinkes
Christ
did
himselfe
and
his
Master
the
Pope
wrong
with
his
humility
,
and
blames
him
he
made
no
more
use
of
his
Legions
of
Angels
to
establish
a
Temporall
Monarchy
.
There
is
no
Text
troubles
him
more
then
Peters
paying
tribute
to
Cesar
,
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
&
ter
negabis
,
are
farre
more
easie
of
digestion
,
and
trouble
him
lesse
to
answer
.
Pro
te
&
me
he
conceives
are
words
of
dangerous
consequence
,
and
had
he
been
of
Christs
councell
,
should
have
beene
spared
.
In
a
word
,
he
hath
gotten
more
for
his
Master
and
himselfe
,
then
Christ
ever
challenged
,
or
meant
to
Saint
Peter
,
or
his
Successor
,
either
in
that
Hierarchie
hee
claimes
,
or
the
Temporall
power
he
usurpes
,
which
he
pretends
is
propter
bonum
Ecclesiae
,
with
which
clause
or
caution
,
he
can
absolve
any
Judiciall
Oath
,
though
sealed
with
the
Sacrament
,
and
signed
by
a
Legion
of
Cardinalls
,
as
Pope
Paschall
did
his
with
Henry
the
Emperour
;
so
he
prefers
the
Churches
Liberties
in
Temporall
things
before
his
owne
salvation
,
and
the
royall
signature
of
the
Sacrament
.
IX
.
The
true
Character
of
a
Northerne
Lady
,
as
she
is
Wife
,
Mother
,
and
Sister
,
IS
the
Wife
to
a
Husband
as
intollerably
hard
as
harsh
;
yet
like
the
Bee
,
she
sucks
honey
out
of
this
Hemlock
,
and
gaines
a
good
stock
of
honour
and
happiness
out
of
this
misfortune
,
and
lets
the
world
see
it
is
more
his
then
hers
.
She
manages
her
little
deduction
out
of
his
fortune
so
,
that
by
her
discreet
disbursements
he
may
see
the
true
use
of
wealth
,
which
he
thinkes
is
rather
in
possession
then
use
;
so
he
hath
no
more
comfort
of
his
wealth
then
the
Indian
mole
in
the
golden
mines
,
if
he
cast
up
any
it
may
cost
him
deare
,
yet
he
gaineth
not
by
it
,
it
is
for
others
use
,
not
his
owne
;
not
with
any
intention
to
inrich
others
,
but
by
chance
.
That
the
Masculine
is
more
worthy
then
the
Feminine
Gender
,
is
a
rule
we
take
up
in
our
childhood
,
and
lay
downe
with
our
lives
;
but
she
gives
Lilly
the
lye
,
she
proves
that
the
Theologicall
,
and
Cardinall
vertues
are
of
the
female
gender
,
and
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
and
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
{non-Roman}
,
potestas
and
potentia
,
power
and
ability
too
;
and
concludes
(
like
a
Mathematician
)
demonstratively
.
As
a
chaste
wife
and
happy
mother
she
brought
her
husband
a
son
,
in
whose
education
she
shewes
her selfe
more
like
a
father
in
her
discreet
management
of
his
youth
in
travell
,
then
a
tender
mother
in
distrust
of
Gods
providence
abroad
,
and
doth
in
this
like
the
wise
Merchant
,
who
trusts
the
Sea
with
his
bullion
and
stock
,
and
transacts
it
where
exchange
runnes
highest
,
and
so
ballances
his
trading
by
the
probability
,
not
certainty
of
advantage
in
the
returne
;
whereas
her
husband
would
wrap
his
talent
in
a
napkin
,
or
hide
it
in
a
dung-hill
,
and
breed
his
sonne
no
better
then
himselfe
,
were
not
she
the
better
Merchant
;
yet
hers
is
but
a
mothers
interest
,
his
a
fathers
;
hers
in
blood
,
his
in
perpetuity
.
As
for
the
sisters
part
,
she
hath
out-done
all
presidents
in
that
more
then
both
the
other
,
it
being
hard
to
finde
a
sister
can
be
so
tender
a
mother
to
her
Brothers
Orphane
,
that
the
childe
(
were
he
come
to
her
owne
sonnes
age
)
could
scarcely
misse
his
mother
,
such
is
her
care
of
it
.
And
that
which
most
commends
her
,
is
,
she
in
her
Noble
Brothers
imprisonment
,
hath
managed
his
misfortunes
with
as
much
or
more
advantage
then
her
owne
,
wasting
her
weak
body
in
those
noble
services
,
nay
over-witting
those
engins
imployed
to
ruine
her
Brother
.
Like
Moses
shee
stood
in
the
gap
betwixt
her
Brother
and
the
Parliaments
displeasure
,
nor
would
give
over
untill
(
like
him
)
she
by
her
intercession
had
set
him
free
,
and
delivered
him
from
the
judgements
which
hung
like
a
cloud
over
his
head
.
She
lost
not
the
least
advantage
in
relation
to
her
Brothers
honour
,
fortune
or
happiness
.
In
a
word
,
she
is
to
her
husband
a
loyall
wife
,
to
her
sonne
a
discreetly
indulgent
mother
,
to
her
Brother
such
a
Sister
,
as
the
wisest
man
would
wish
his
owne
,
and
I
mine
.
Mothers
,
Wives
,
Sisters
,
you
who
would
not
erre
,
Steere
all
your
courses
by
this
Character
.
This
is
no
faigned
Character
,
but
true

The
politique
Neuter
IS
an
Hermaphrodite
partaking
of
two
sexes
,
and
as
unfruitfull
to
his
Prince
or
country
;
a
man
that
dares
not
professe
the
Religion
he
was
baptized
to
,
nor
protest
against
an
Innovation
,
and
so
no
Protestant
:
he
reserves
his
choice
for
the
prevailing
partie
,
and
for
the
present
professeth
that
which
they
doe
:
wonders
at
the
distractions
in
the
Church
,
and
Common-wealth
,
and
in
the
mean
time
is
more
distracted
in
himselfe
:
he
dares
not
owne
his
conscience
now
,
and
therefore
that
will
change
Masters
,
and
turne
witnes
against
him
,
when
he
stands
most
need
of
it
:
he
would
fain
serve
two
Masters
at
once
,
and
please
both
,
but
finding
our
Saviours
words
true
,
that
he
must
hate
the
one
,
and
love
the
other
,
he
resolves
to
hate
him
he
fears
most
,
and
to
love
neither
,
not
firme
to
either
:
he
loses
the
good
opinion
of
both
,
and
so
fals
betwixt
two
stools
:
God
calls
on
him
in
the
Old
Testament
with
a
quere
how
long
he
will
halt
betwixt
two
opinions
,
and
Christ
in
the
New
promises
him
the
Laodiceans
reward
:
he
is
so
far
from
trusting
Gods
mercie
in
Martyrdome
,
that
he
dares
not
trust
his
providence
in
wants
;
he
is
as
much
troubled
as
David
at
the
prosperitie
of
the
wicked
,
but
hath
not
the
patience
to
goe
to
Gods
House
with
him
to
enquire
of
their
ends
;
he
will
not
beleeve
Davids
experience
concerning
the
Children
of
the
righteous
,
whom
he
never
saw
begging
their
bread
;
he
had
rather
leane
upon
the
rotten
reeds
of
his
owne
policie
,
then
trust
the
firme
rock
of
Gods
providence
:
if
he
ever
professed
to
be
for
the
King
,
when
his
cause
prospered
,
he
presently
repented
it
,
and
purchased
the
Parliaments
pardon
and
protection
,
and
paid
at
least
two
yeares
purchase
for
it
;
if
he
be
a
Prisoner
,
it
is
with
accommodation
,
and
by
it
he
saves
the
charges
of
hospitalitie
;
yet
hopes
that
moneys
thus
disburst
makes
him
a
Martyr
,
and
may
be
pleaded
as
well
in
bar
of
further
assistance
to
the
King
,
as
a
Privie
seale
,
though
it
be
disburst
for
the
Parliaments
use
;
if
for
the
Parliament
,
you
shall
never
find
him
without
a
Royall
protection
,
and
purchased
friendship
at
Oxford
,
and
that
sometimes
is
mistaken
,
and
shewn
to
the
wrong
partie
,
and
then
he
payes
for
it
;
if
either
partie
prevaile
,
he
is
in
Misericordia
;
if
an
Accommodation
(
for
which
he
prays
more
heartily
then
the
forgivenesse
of
his
sins
)
help
not
,
he
hath
so
long
endeavoured
to
get
a
dexterous
use
of
his
left
hand
,
that
he
hath
almost
lost
the
perfect
use
of
his
right
,
and
is
become
an
imperfect
perfect
Ambodexter
,
or
at
best
so
cunning
at
leger-demaine
,
that
he
gets
the
repute
of
a
notable
Jugler
;
In
a
word
,
he
dares
not
seeme
what
he
is
,
nor
be
what
he
seemes
,
but
like
luke-warme
water
having
neither
heat
enough
to
warme
the
Stomacke
,
nor
being
cold
enough
to
coole
it
,
is
rejected
of
both
,
and
spued
out
as
friend
to
neither
.

The
Citie
Paragon
IS
a
woman
whose
birth
was
greater
then
her
portion
,
but
her
vertues
greater
then
her
birth
;
who
was
marryed
to
a
husband
whose
fortune
exceeded
his
wisdome
,
yet
his
fortune
in
her
was
greater
then
his
wealth
,
who
manages
his
fortune
so
,
that
she
improves
his
conscience
as
much
as
his
wealth
,
and
her
wit
makes
him
eminent
in
the
City
.
She
loves
not
(
with
the
Pharisees
)
the
highest
places
at
Feasts
,
nor
salutations
in
Assemblies
,
knowing
Envy
attends
the
first
,
and
Pride
the
other
.
Her
dresse
is
more
comely
then
costly
,
modest
then
garish
;
her
visits
,
like
Sabboth
dayes
labours
,
not
frequent
,
and
never
without
charity
,
or
necessity
undertaken
:
her
entertainment
to
her
husbands
friends
,
or
her
owne
,
suits
both
their
conditions
;
more
neat
it
is
then
curious
;
and
is
more
reall
and
solid
then
ceremonious
.
She
desires
her
children
may
be
so
bred
,
that
they
may
be
seasoned
in
their
childhood
with
those
vertues
which
may
make
them
happy
in
their
age
.
And
knowing
Examples
prevaile
more
then
Precepts
,
she
gives
them
none
,
but
such
as
she
would
have
them
follow
.
Those
troubles
incident
to
rich
men
(
which
they
call
misfortunes
)
she
makes
blessings
by
her
right
use
of
them
,
knowing
it
is
not
the
fruition
,
but
right
use
,
that
makes
us
truly
rich
,
nor
the
losse
of
wealth
can
make
any
so
miserable
as
the
abuse
of
it
.
If
she
heare
any
ill
of
her
neighbour
,
she
had
rather
suppresse
it
,
then
report
it
;
if
any
good
,
she
will
rather
improve
it
,
then
enviously
diminish
it
.
If
any
uncertaine
evill
be
reported
of
any
good
man
or
woman
,
shee
breaks
it
in
the
egge
,
and
will
not
give
it
the
reputation
of
credit
,
much
lesse
of
report
:
if
any
uncertain
good
,
she
had
rather
beleeve
it
then
question
it
;
so
she
makes
her
worst
neighbours
better
,
and
her
good
she
improves
.
In
bargaines
for
her
husband
,
she
rather
makes
a
wise
bargaine
then
a
crafty
;
she
had
rather
save
then
circumvent
;
the
loves
not
to
hide
leven
in
the
lump
of
her
husbands
fortune
,
nor
dares
trust
her
stock
with
laying
up
what
Oppression
must
make
good
againe
.
She
likes
not
gilded
pills
,
she
knowes
they
may
prove
too
Cathartick
.
In
a
word
,
the
State
suffers
what
her
husband
gaines
,
that
she
wanted
the
power
of
a
greater
man
,
to
doe
more
good
,
since
her
will
is
answerable
to
the
best
,
and
her
wisdome
not
inferiour
to
her
will
.
You
City-dames
who
imitate
Court-Ladies
in
their
greatest
state
,
Learne
but
the
dresse
which
here
you
have
,
You
may
much
cost
and
labour
save
:
And
be
esteemed
better
far
,
Nay
honoured
more
then
Ladies
are
.
Then
thank
my
Country
which
hath
lent
Your
City
such
a
president
.

A
sharking
Committee-man
Is
one
trusted
with
more
then
he
is
worth
:
he
is
like
Ezechiels
lesser
wheele
,
moved
by
the
greater
▪
if
he
doe
discharge
his
trust
,
yet
there
may
be
Treason
in
it
;
if
not
,
there
must
be
knavery
.
He
reads
the
Turkish
History
with
passion
,
when
he
considers
the
great
Turks
policy
to
imploy
greedy
slaves
,
and
the
cunningest
,
in
the
places
of
greatest
profit
,
that
he
may
satisfie
his
people
with
his
justice
,
and
get
all
that
by
escheat
,
which
hee
had
heaped
by
oppression
.
Hee
feares
not
God
so
much
as
the
people
doe
him
,
who
sacrifice
to
him
(
as
the
Indians
to
the
Devill
)
ne
noceat
.
He
hath
still
in
his
bosome
the
horror
of
two
dayes
of
Judgement
,
the
one
at
Westminster
,
which
he
fears
more
then
the
last
when
ever
it
come
.
The
faces
of
the
Committee
for
Examinations
are
more
dreadfull
to
his
sense
,
then
the
thought
of
the
last
day
to
his
●eared
conscience
.
His
Antidote
is
a
Paramount
friend
of
the
Quorum
,
and
if
he
faile
him
,
he
is
a
lost
man
.
No
Sheriffe
was
ever
quicker
with
his
Elegit
,
then
he
with
his
Capias
for
Body
,
Goods
and
Lands
,
which
they
call
a
Sequestration
,
though
the
party
may
justly
plead
the
Statute
of
this
Parliament
in
barre
of
his
oppression
,
if
the
priviledge
of
person
,
or
propriety
of
goods
were
as
really
intended
as
pretended
,
yet
he
fears
no
futura
contingentia
but
his
Paramounts
favour
,
in
which
he
hath
no
more
terme
then
Villains
have
in
Villanage
,
(
during
pleasure
)
that
is
,
Dum
bene
se
gesserit
in
omnibus
.
He
heaps
wealth
to
purchase
favour
,
and
gets
that
to
purchase
wealth
,
with
which
he
buyes
his
Heire
a
Command
,
and
in
conclusion
gets
a
Garrison
of
ease
,
where
he
and
his
Cub
may
kennell
,
and
like
the
Fox
retreats
to
his
hole
when
he
is
hunted
,
this
will
make
his
peace
(
if
well
managed
)
with
either
party
.
In
a
word
,
if
ever
he
come
to
a
Jury
,
his
countenance
will
cast
him
,
for
that
is
as
full
of
guilt
,
as
his
conscience
of
horror
.
He
who
hath
the
least
skill
in
Phisiognomie
,
shall
finde
furcam
in
fronte
,
or
crucem
in
facie
;
and
if
any
cast
his
nativity
,
and
will
be
at
the
charge
of
a
Scheame
,
you
shall
finde
Saturne
and
Mars
in
conjunction
in
the
house
of
Mercurie
,
all
malignant
:
yet
he
a
sincere
Professor

XIII
.
Britanicus
his
pedigree
.
A
fatall
prediction
of
his
end
.
I
Dare
affirme
him
a
Jew
by
descent
,
and
of
the
Tribe
of
Benjamin
,
lineally
descended
from
the
first
King
of
the
Jewes
,
even
Saul
,
or
at
best
he
ownes
him
and
his
Tribe
,
in
most
we
reade
of
them
.
First
,
of
our
English
Tribes
,
I
conceive
his
Fathers
the
lowest
,
and
the
meanest
of
that
Tribe
,
Stocke
,
or
generation
,
and
the
worst
how
bad
soever
they
be
:
melancholly
he
is
,
as
appeares
by
his
sullen
and
dogged
wit
;
malicious
as
Saul
to
David
,
as
is
evident
in
his
writings
;
he
wants
but
Sauls
javelin
to
cast
at
him
;
he
as
little
spares
the
Kings
Friends
with
his
pen
,
as
Saul
did
Jonathan
his
Sonne
in
his
reproach
;
and
would
be
as
free
of
his
javelin
as
his
pen
,
were
his
power
sutable
to
his
will
as
Ziba
did
to
Mephibosheth
,
so
does
he
by
the
King
,
he
belies
him
as
much
to
the
world
,
as
he
his
Master
to
David
,
and
in
the
day
of
adversitie
is
as
free
of
his
tongue
,
as
Shimei
was
to
his
Soveraigne
,
and
would
be
as
humble
as
he
,
and
as
forward
to
meet
the
King
,
as
he
was
David
,
should
the
King
returne
in
peace
.
Abishaes
there
cannot
want
to
cut
off
the
Dogs
head
,
but
David
is
more
mercifull
then
Shimei
can
be
wicked
;
may
he
first
consult
with
the
witch
of
Endor
,
but
not
worthy
of
so
noble
a
death
as
his
owne
sword
,
die
the
death
of
Achitophel
for
feare
of
David
,
then
may
he
be
hangd
up
as
the
Sonnes
of
Saul
were
against
the
Sunne
,
or
rather
as
the
Amalekites
who
slew
Isb●sheth
,
and
brought
tidings
and
the
tokens
of
the
treason
to
David
;
may
his
hands
and
his
feet
be
as
sacrifices
cut
off
,
and
hung
up
,
and
so
pay
for
the
Treasons
of
his
pen
and
tongue
;
May
all
heads
that
plot
Treasons
,
all
tongues
that
speake
them
,
all
pens
that
write
them
,
be
so
punisht
.
If
Sheba
paid
his
head
for
his
tongues
fault
,
what
deserves
Britanicus
to
pay
for
his
pen
and
trumpet
?
Is
there
never
a
wise
woman
in
London
?
we
have
Abishaes

The
Phaenix
of
the
Court
IS
a
Ladie
whose
birth
and
beautie
called
her
to
the
Court
,
as
fit
to
attend
Majestie
;
yet
her
vertues
and
discretion
fixt
more
honour
upon
her
then
either
,
though
admired
for
the
one
,
as
much
honoured
for
the
other
.
Though
her
beautie
like
Hellens
might
beget
a
war
in
competition
,
yet
these
command
a
reverence
,
as
much
as
those
inforce
affection
:
her
words
hold
waight
as
well
as
her
actions
,
she
waighes
them
before
she
utters
them
,
much
more
her
actions
which
are
twice
waighed
,
and
give
authoritie
to
others
,
and
are
rather
admired
then
imitated
,
yet
ought
as
well
to
be
imitated
as
admired
:
for
her
companie
it
is
(
if
voluntarie
)
such
as
she
would
be
thought
to
be
:
her
reall
devotion
is
canonicall
in
relation
to
order
,
if
occasion
fail
not
,
and
to
her self
,
yet
none
more
duly
observes
the
assigned
houres
for
Gods
Worship
:
her
frequent
attendance
on
Gods
service
is
not
enjoyned
as
a
penance
,
but
spontaneous
;
not
with
hope
of
merit
,
for
that
spoils
and
prejudices
even
charitie
,
which
is
the
seasoning
of
our
workes
,
but
lookes
upon
mercie
with
humilitie
,
rather
then
merit
with
confidence
,
for
she
workes
her
salvation
out
of
the
fire
with
feare
and
trembling
,
yet
she
wants
not
a
graine
of
lively
faith
,
nor
charitie
,
the
one
assuring
her
Soule
,
the
other
the
world
of
that
happinesse
,
which
neither
the
subtiltie
nor
malice
of
the
wicked
,
or
their
master
can
rob
her
of
,
nor
the
world
take
from
her
:
As
for
her
dresse
,
she
had
rather
owne
any
infirmitie
,
either
in
colour
,
shape
,
or
feature
,
then
cover
them
with
an
undecent
,
much
lesse
an
immodest
attire
,
though
her
judgement
even
in
this
be
like
the
royall
stamp
to
bullion
,
which
gives
it
reputation
and
denomination
,
and
makes
it
currant
,
so
doth
her
approbation
any
fashion
;
In
a
word
,
she
is
honoured
of
those
she
reverences
,
and
reverenc'd
by
those
she
loves
;
she
had
rather
know
her self
truly
wise
,
then
be
thought
so
,
yet
would
not
onely
be
vertuous
,
but
be
esteemed
so
;
she
knows
there
may
be
envie
in
the
first
without
cause
,
and
dishonour
in
the
other
without
reason
.

AN

Honourable
The
Earle
of
LINDSEY

1.
GReat
Lindsey's
falne
,
yet
did
not
fall
by
chance
,
For
Sparrowes
fall
not
but
by
Providence
.
What
are
our
sinnes
when
such
as
Lindsey
fall
?
One
who
so
often
had
been
Generall
.
One
nere
deceiv'd
our
hopes
by
Sea
or
Land
,
And
had
been
now
as
glorious
in
Command
,
Had
our
Reserve
of
Horse
as
bravely
stood
To
their
great
Charge
,
as
Lindsey
made
it
good
.
But
they
pursue
the
chase
,
therefore
we
may
(
And
justly
too
)
say
they
lost
us
the

.
Sure
their
Commission
was
not
left
so
large
,
That
a
Reserve
without
Command
should
Charge
.
For
a
Reserve
for
safe
Retreat
should
stand
,
And
should
not
stir
without
expresse
Command
.
Their
Zeale
to
honour
,
and
the

just
Cause
,
Might
make
brave
men
forget
strict
Martiall
Lawes

So
Lindsey
fell
,
as
when
the
Phenix
lyes
In
her
rich
Urne
,
another
doth
arise
Even
from
her
ashes
:
So
from
Lindsey's
grave
,
Another
Phenix
(
we
)
or
Lindsey
have
.
A
gallant
man
,
and
of
most
noble
parts
,
As
great
a
Master
of
his

,
as
hearts
;
But
the
old
Phenix
(
in
his
Martiall
heat
)
Did
great
Gustavus
,
past
his
Cannon
beat
:
With
reverence
yet
old
Christian
speaks
his
name
,
Then
boasts
from
Danish
blood
the
English
came
;
Wee
must
acknowledge
and
confesse
t
is
true
,
The
Normans
their
discent
from
Rollo
drew
.
And
Rollo
was
a
Dane
by
birth
,
yet
wee
Thought
Lindsey
(
mongst
the
Danes
)
as
brave
as
he
:
And
we
beleeve
that
our
young
Lindsey
rather
Improves
his
stocke
,
then
borrowes
from
his
Father
.

An

the
Earle
of

.
I
Must
acknowledge
,
now
I
love
thee
more
,
(
When
thou
art
not
)
then
ere
I
did
before
.
The
love
wherewith
I
living
loved
thee
,
Is
changd
to
honour
of
thy
memory
:
As
rarifi'd
ayre
turns
to
the
purest
fire
,
So
what
I
lately
lov'd
,
I
now
admire
.
Many
professe
,
they
for
the
King
would
die
;
Thou
for
his
sake
,
didst
offered
life
deny
;
Thou
wouldst
not
beg
,
but
Martyrdom
command
,
They
offered
what
thou
wouldst
not
understand
;
There
's
not
a
hayre
,
which
from
thy
head
was
torn
,
And
in
despite
to
Loyalty
was
worn
In
Triumph
;
not
a
wound
to
thee
was
given
,
But
they
are
in
the
black
Records
of
Heaven
:
And
when
the
Grand
Inquest
for
blood
shall
come
,
They
must
strike
Tallies
for
thy
Martyrdom
.
How
many
Scotch
Bawbies
,
cast
in
account
,
Would
to
the
Talents

amount

For
if
wee
reckon
,
wee
cannot
go
lesse
Then
this
proportion
,
this
they
must
confesse
;
They
noble
loyall
blood
,
I
dare
be
bold
,
Compar'd
with
theirs
,
will
this
proportion
hold
:
What

hath
our

,
since

Become

loosers

An
Elegy
upon
the
right
Honourable
the
Earle
of
Kingston
.
KIngston
,
thy
losse
was
Epidemicall
;
It
was
indeed
a
generall
losse
to
all
.
I
will
not
name
thy
Ladies
interest
,
Childrens
,
nor
servants
,
theirs
were
farre
the
least
;
Though
I
dare
say
thus
much
,
for
all
the
three
,
Th
'ave
lost
as
much
as
in
a
friend
could
be
;
No
better
husband
liv'd
,
nor
kinder
father
,
Nor
nobler
master
,
joyning
these
together
.
I
speak
the
losse
but
as
it
did
relate
,
To
God
his
Church
,
the
King
,
and
to
the
State
:
For
his
Religion
it
was
pure
and
sound
,
And
no
man
better
understood
his
ground
:
A
Protestant
he
liv'd
,
a
Martyr
dy'd
,
Professing
truth
,
his
truth
by
death
was
try'd
:
This
I
dare
say
,
the
King
had
none
more
able
Nor
really
loyall
at
his
Councell
Table
:
Of
brave
resolves
,
and
of
a
publick
spirit
,
Who
knew
him
best
,
knew
he
conceald
his
merit
;
Discreet
he
was
,
and
providently
wise
;
Kinde
to
his
friends
,
and
faithfull
in
advise
.
No
man
his
Countrey
better
understood
,
Nor
was
more
apt
to
do
it
reall
good
.
Though
he
was
rich
,
I
dare
pronounce
him
just
,
No
man
was
more
religious
in
his
trust
;
Nor
better
understood
this
kingdomes
Lawes
;
Yet
he
with
noble
blood
durst
seal
the
Cause
;
Nor
would
great
Kingston
in
the
Cause
have
dyed
,
Had
he
not
been
in
Conscience
satisfyed
As
well
as
Law
.
These
two
hee
durst
not
sever
,
Since
God
in

joynd
them
both
together

Stuarts

of

more
because
they

I
dare

their

as
loyall
As
was

,
and

Royall
.

not

it

shall
unto

Nay

this
very

informe

When
all

shall
be
calcin'd
,
And
in

generall
urne
refin'd
:
Nay
which
is
more
,
they
shall
appeare
,
More
glorious
then
they
ever
were
:
If
Chymists
by
their
art
can
show
,
What
vegetives
from
salt
may
grow
;
And
make
them
in
a
glasse
appeare
,
In
specie
,
as
they
growing
were
.
If
salt
of
flowers
,
their
formes
can
keep
,
Till
fire
shall
cause
them
from
their
sleep
;
How
much
more
when
that
Trump
shall
sound
,
Shall
fire
,
and
ayre
,
the
sea
,
and

,
Their
treasures
to

restore

More
glorious
then
they
were
before

If
Martyrs

Can

I
dare

these

lie

Deserve

They
seal'd

He●ne

Marcham
,
and
Beeton
fell
.
(
Men
whom

could
not
paralell

)
There
Candish
fell
,
a
man
whose
very
name
,
Like
Ziscus
drumme
,
struck
terror
where
it
came
.
A
man
whose
vertues
justified
his
blood
,
And
prov'd
his
own
of
Cavendish's
as
good
,
As
that
of
Bruces
,
both
did
run
in
's
veines
,
And
in
his
actions
,
men
might
read
both
streynes
.
Who
knew
him
,
knew
there
never
lived
a
creature
Of
a
more
noble
sweet
engaging
nature
;
Yet
to
his
daring
nothing
was
a
task
,
Should
he
his
courage
,
not
his
reason
ask
:
His
errour
was
still
where
he
had
command
,
In
action
he
would
have
too
deep
a
hand
.
So
by
his
own
example
,
thought
to
make
The
too
reserv'd
,
their
cautious
feares
forsake
:
And
so
too
farre
engag'd
brave
Candish
fell
,
A
man
whom
both
the
Nations
lov'd
so
well
:
As
t'
was
with
Homer
in
the
Grecian
Story
,
Both
Nations
claime
an
interest
in
his
glory
;
Where
ere
the
Sun
is
by
his
journeys
known
,
As
his
companion
,
there
we
Candish
own
.
Hence
we
derive
and
prove
his
title
good
,
The
Scots
derive
him
from
great
Bruces
blood
.
Although
the
Scots
in
competition
are
With
us
for
Bruces
blood
,
we
have
our
share
In
him
,
as
well
as
they
:
from
subjects
we
,
They
from
their
Kings
derive
his
pedigree
.
But
as
for
Candish
we
derive
a
claime
,
As
just
as
their
's
both
in
his
blood
and
name
.

BRave
Stanhops
you
have
really
made
it
good
,
You
are
discended
from
true
Royall
blood
:
Few
Fathers
have
in
this
kinde
been
more
crost
,
But
fewer
could
so
gallant
sonnes
have
lost
.
But
th'
are
not
lost
,
who
suffer
in
this
cause
,
If
we
respect
,
or
God's
,
or
humane
Lawes
:
Did
Christ
to
Caesar
tribute
money
pay
(
The
badge
of
Conquest
?
)
what
can
subjects
say
?
Would
he
submit
himselfe
to
Caesars
Law
,
Who
was
a
King
?
must
not
his
subjects
draw
?
You
paid
your
Caesars
tribute
,
in
such
blood
,
That
I
dare
say
,
few
subjects
have
so
good
:
You
drew
your
sword
for
Caesar
,
and
you
tri'd
Your
Fathers
right
(
which
cannot
be
deni'd
.
)
Who
is
't
hath
done
the
cause
more
right
,
then
they
?
And
none
could
die
more
nobly
for
the
way
:
There
are
but
few
to
whom
the
King
owes
more
,
(
Except
the
Duke
)
look
through
the
Royall
score
,
Then
unto
you
;
he
hath
lost
more
then
you
,
Three
of
the
Royall
blood
,
and
you
but
two
.
Your
sonnes

Upon
the
truly
noble
and
valiant
Sir
Bevell
Greenfield
Knight
.
I
Lov'd
thee
dearly
Brother
I
confesse
;
And
shall
I
now
begin
to
love
thee
lesse
?
Thy
death
was
truly
noble
,
as
thy
blood
;
Had
not
this
beene
so
,
that
had
made
it
good
.
Thy
Grandsire
had
a
Noble
Spanish
grave
,
And
to
thy
name
,
a
stock
of
Honour
gave
.
Were
our
Chronology
lost
,
Spaine
for
her
glory
,
Will
in
her
Annals
write
thy
Grandsires
story
:
We
must
confesse
,
a
Gallant
man
we
lost
,
But
let
Spaine
speak
,
how
deare
the
victory
cost
.
I'
have
heard
the
Donnes
themselves
confesse
it
here
,
They
scarce
would
buy
a
Navie
now
so
deare
.
Neptunes
in
's
bounds
▪
near
saw
a
bloodier
fight
,
He
never
fear'd
so
much
,
to
loose
his
right
.
The
Proverb
was
made
true
,
the
Sea
then
burn'd
,
And
all
the
Elements
,
to
fire
were
turn'd
;
The
fearefull
fishes
,
fled
into
the
deep
;
The
unweeldy
Whale
then
an
even
course
could
keep
▪
With
the
swift
Dolphin
;
they
could
not
endure
That
horid
fight
,
nor
think
themselves
secure
;
Neptunes
Sea-mantle
,
was
turn'd
Scarlet
then
,
Stain'd
with
the
precious
blood
of
dying
men
.
This
was
thy
Gransire
;
yet
we
understand
,
Thy
Noble
death
as
glorious
was
by
land
.
For
thou
hast
added
to
thy
Grandsires
blood
,
And
made
that
better
which
before
was
good
.

An
Elegy
upon
the
Honourable
his
noble
friend
and
Countreyman
Sir
William
Evers
.
BRave
Evers
,
men
were
borne
to
die
we
know
;
How
happy
wert
thou
then
,
who
couldst
die
so
,
That
when
thou
didst
this
troublesome
life
lay
down
,
Thou
could'st
exchange
thy
Helmet
for
a
Crown
;
And
with
the
'
xchange
,
couldst
so
enrich
thy
blood
,
To
make
that
better
,
was
before
so
good
?
Thy
blood
was
noble
,
that
we
knew
before
;
But
all
men
must
confesse
that
now
't
is
more
:
Thy
loyall
death
being
added
makes
it
mount
,
As
figures
enrich
cyphers
in
accompt
.
If
heavenly
souls
knew
ought
of
earthly
blisse
,
Thy
happy
soule
would
then
rejoyce
in
this
.
Few
who
are
now
with
thee
in
heaven
above
,
Have
left
behind
a
greater
stock
of
Iove
:
Yet
you
in
stock
of
loyall
honour
were
Thought
to
be
richer
then
in
that
by
farre
:
What
would
a
soule
have
more
then
he'vens
joyes
there
▪
And
such
a
stock
of
love
and
honour
here
?
When
such
a
life
shall
such
a
death
precede
,
We
need
no
prayers
;
nor
offerings
for
the
dead
.

who
were

SInce
you
two
durst
so
bravely
die
together
,
My
Muse
dares
not
presume
such
friends
to
sever
.
I
am
no
stranger
to
the
noble
blood
Ranne
in
your
vaines
;
I
know
few
have
so
good
:
Yet
you
have
gone
the
Chymists
subtile
way
,
And
have
by
death
improv'd
your
blood
wee
say
.
Chymists
the
noblest
vegetives
destroy
,
Before
they
can
their
quintessence
enjoy
.
Your
bloods
you
two
have
quintessenced
now
,
We
to
your
memories
reverence
must
allow
:
You
have
with
honour
both
your
lives
laid
down
,
And
shall
be
stiled
Martyrs
for
the
Crown
;
And
in
your
Graves
you
shall
that
honour
have
,
Which
glorious
Martyrs
merit
in
the
grave
.
An
Elegy
upon
the
truly
noble
and
valiant
Sir
John
Smith
.
HEe
who
a
Romane
Citizen
could
save
From
being
made
prisoner
,
was
by
Law
to
have
A
Civick
Crown
,
which
he
might
justly
beare
,
As
a
distinction
,
and
at
Triumphs
weare
.
So
thankfull
was
wise
Rome
in
her
reward
,
And
to
her
Citizens
had
such
regard
:
What
Honour
then
,
what
value
,
and
esteeme
,
Was
due
to
him
,
the
Eagles
could
redeeme
.
Our
Royall
Standard
at
Edgehill
was
lost
,
At
least
engag'd
,
so
that
much
blood
it
cost
.
Yet
this
brave
man
,
made
him
who
got
it
know
,
What
duty
Subjects
to
that
Standard
owe
.
Have
you
e're
seen
a
chafed
Lyon
stand
,
With
Hunters
vext
,
and
gall'd
on
every
hand
:
Whilst
all
the
Hunters
various
wayes
contrive
,
To
take
this
Lyon
if
they
can
alive
:
So
gall'd
,
so
vext
,
our
noble
Champion
stood
,
The
English
earth
dy'd
with
rebellious
blood
.
Whilst
none
within
the
Lists
presumes
to
enter
,
Least
he
should
pay
too
deare
for
his
adventure
.
At
last
resolv'd
,
he
cuts
himselfe
a
way
,
Not
through
meane
Troops
,
but
Regiments
they
say
:
Then
straight
he
doth
this
welcome
present
bring
,
This
new
redeemed
Prisoner
,
to
the
King
;
The
King
doth
both
himselfe
,
and
service
right
,
He
with
that
sword
had
serv'd
him
,
made
him
Knight
.
Would
this
were
written
in
the
hearts
of
Kings
,
Both
Peace
and
Warre
,
are
manag'd
by
two
things
;
'T
is
Punishment
,
and
just
Rewards
that
are
The
Weights
and
Ballance
,
both
of
Peace
and
Warre
.
From
Noble
Houses
he
,
and
Loyall
came
,
Marcham
he
was
by
blood
,
and
Smith
by
Name
.
But
he
made
better
,
what
before
was
good
,
I
meane
his
Loyall
name
,
and
Noble
blood
.

Knight

VVHilst
thou
yet

I
honoured
thee
,
I
reverence
now
thy
sacred

;
Ther
's
none
I

written
heretofore
,
Who
hath
oblig'd
this
Church
,
and

more
.
Thou
hast
deriv'd
,
nay
prov'd
our
Church
as
high
,
As
Rome
can
boast
,
and
giv'n
her
pride
the
lie
.
Thou
hast
the
series
of
her
story
shown
,
So
hast
o're
us
her
Hirarchy
o'rethrown
.
I
read
thy
books
,
and
I
admire
thy
soule
,
Thy
daring
soule
that
durst
proud
Rome
controule
:
Thou
with
their
own
Authorities
,
dost
prove
That
which
they
would
,
but
never
shall
remove
:
Thou
prov'dst
that
Gregories
Monke
found
Bishops
here
Durst
check
his
pride
,
who
after
Martyrs
were
:
Who
held
the
rites
and
customes
of
the
Fast
,
Which
Polycarpus
durst
approve
the
best
.
Who
twice
to
Rome
as
an
Officiall
came
,
To
fix
that
feast
,
which
now
we
must
not
name
:
Thou'st
prov'd
our
Church
as
glorious
as
Romes
,
For
Doctrine
,
Discipline
,
and
Martyrdomes
.
Thou'st
prov'd
to
us
the
mighty
power
of
Kings
,
In
calling
councells
even
in
spirituall
things
;
And
temporall
rights
the

,
Her
frequent

As

Which

may
stile

Brittaines

,
The
Brittish
Church
,
our
Kings
owe
this
to
thee
;
Shall
we
not
reverence
then
thy
memory
?
Had'st
thou
been
Rome's
,
thy
supererogation
,
Had
rais'd
a
stock
of
merits
for
our
Nation

But

Brave

As

None

For

But
covetous
of
as
brave

as

He
crowned

with

Of

More

An
Elegy
for
my
dear
Godson
and
Nephew
Henry
Morton
,
Sonne
to
my
good
brother
Sir
George
Morton
Baronet
.
HAve
you
observ'd
a
Cedar
wonderous
straight
?
Admired
for
its
freshnesse
,
youth
and
heigth
;
Cut
down
before
it
came
to
its
full
growth
,
Such
the
proportions
were
of
this
sweet
youth
:
And
such
his
fortune
,
loyall
to
the
Crowne
,
Scarce
writing
man
(
though
man
enough
)
cut
down
.
I
must
confesse
(
brave
youth
)
thou
hast
made
good
My
share
both
in
thy
name
,
and
loyall
blood
;
The
first
I
gave
thee
(
that
's
thy
name
)
the
other
Thy
blood
,
my
sister
was
thy
vertuous
Mother
:
A
Mother
worthy
of
so
brave
a
Sonne
;
If
heavenly
soules
know
what
on
earth
is
done
,
Her
's
would
rejoyce
,
that
thou
could'st
so
improve
So
small
a
stock
of
time
to
purchasse
love
:
And
die
so
rich
in
that
and
reputation
,
Thou
wert
an
honour
to
thy
blood
and
Nation
.
All
this
in
noble
Morton
was
;
lies
here
A
name
will
force
from
every
eye
a
teare
,
Nay
,
from
the
souldiers
heart
knowes
not
to
weep
.
Yet
know
he
is
not
dead
,
he
doth
but
sleep
.
As
souldiers
being
alarum'd
rub
their
eyes
,
So
when
the
trump
shall
blow
,
Morton
must
rise
,
Not
to
a
battell
(
there
no
more
shall
be
;
)
But
to
triumphant
glorious
victory
.
The
crown
of
glory
(
such
as
Martyrs

Are
crowned

shall

weare

An
Elegy
upon
my
honoured
friends
and
Countreymen
the
valiant
Collonels
Howard
,
Heron
,
Fenwick
,
Lumpton
,
Claverin
,
and
Carnaby
.
FIrst
high
born
Howard
to
Heron
led
the
way
,
Fenwick
and
Lampton
,
both
fell
on
one
day
:
Brave
Claverin's
heart
was
burst
with
griefe
that
he
,
Without
revenge
should
their
survivor
be
:
The
next
to
these
stout
Carnaby
he
fell
,
To
make
the
number
a
just
paralell
.
Six
braver
men
then
these
the
fruitfull
North
,
Of
Martiall
spirits
,
in
one
age
near
brought
forth
:
If
we
may
nature
check
without
offence
,
Shee
was
too
prodigall
in
her
expence
:
Six
such
brave
men
to
be
borne
in
one
age
And
fall
so
soone
must
some
sad
fate
presage
.
Had
these
six
liv'd
,
the
King
had
had
no
need
T'
have
rais'd
the
South-parts
,
to
make
good
the
Tweede
.
These
six
I
dare
say
had
secur'd
it
more
,
Then
Rome
did
with
her
Legions
heretofore
.
Had
Claverin
liv'd
t'have
been
their
generall
,
H'had
more
secur'd
the
North-parts
then
that
wall
Severus
rais'd
so
high
,
had
it
still
stood
,
The
presence
of
these
six
had
been
as
good
:
But
those
same
sinnes
which
cut
of
these
,
I
feare
Will
make
the
passes
over
Trent
as
cleare
:
Our
sinnes
have
brought
in
strangers
heretofore
,
(
As
friends
proud
conquerours
)
and
may
do
once
more
.
An
Elegy
upon
the
right
honourable
the
Countesse
of
Dorset
.
DOrset
is
dead
,
even
she
who
could
support
Unenvied
power
;
and

in

Court
:
Who
by
a
wise
King
was
plac'd
there
to
be
,
The
Tutresse
of
his
Royall
Progeny
.
Shee
for
the
Mirrour
of
the
Court
might
passe
,
Who
ever
lookt
vertue
reflected
was
.
This
Glasse
was
wrought
and
polisht
with
that
skill
,
That
would
reflect
still
truth
,
but
nothing
ill
;
She
by
sweet
Gravity
reproved
youth
,
As
God
does
lying

by
his
stedfast
Truth
;
High
Close
Committee

should

advance
That
powerfull
Engine
cald
their
Ordinance
,
And
rayse
a
Battery

I
dare
undertake
,
It
scarcely
would
the
least
impression
make
Into

Honour

for
her

Above
the

me thinks
I
heare
.
Thy
powerfull
Muse
hath
so
strong
influence
,
Vpon
my
troubled
Soule
,
and
every
Sense
:
For
when
thou
Solomons
mystick
strayns
dost
sing
,
Thy
Muse
then
speaks
the
language
of
that
King
.
And
when
thou
undertakst
the
Kings
just
Cause
,
Thy
strength
is
such
;
thy
Reasons
binde
like
Lawes
.
This
doth
thy
reason
and
thy
loyalty
prayse
,
That
crowns
thy
Statues
with
eternall
bayes
:
Thy
muse
hath
raisd
,
a
Monument
for
thee
,
Thy
prose
a
Pyramid
of
loyalty
.
Thy
memory
shall
be
precious
here
below
,
Whilst
men
the
use
of
sacred
learning
know
.
Thy
soule
is
with
thy
deare
beloved
Kings
,
And
there
with
them
new
Halelujahs
sings
.
Upon
a
true
contented
Prisoner
.
VVHat
's
liberty
it
should
be
so
desir'd
;
'T
is
only
when
deni'd
to
men
,
admir'd
:
W'
are
more
displeased
with
the
least
negative
,
Than
pleas'd
with
all
that
God
to
man
can
give
.
We
are
scarcely
pleasd
with
Gods
great'st
blessings
,
health
And
liberty
,
unlesse
God
give
us
wealth
.
A
little
tooth-ach
,
a
fit
of
the
stone
,
Or
gowt
,
destroys
them
;
and
all
these
are
gone
:
We
are
imprisoned
in
our
beds
and
then
,
We
wish
the
use
of
these
good
things
agen
.
Yet
whilst
we
had
them
,
we
scarce
knew
their
good
,
They
were
heav'ns
blessings
,
but
scarce
understood
.
The
wretched
slave
is
chaind
unto
his
Oare
,
Now
prizes
that
,
he
valued
not
before
,
His
liberty
;
yet
may
be
in
that
State
,
He
is
more
happy
then
he
was
of
late
In
all
these
blessings
free
men
could
enjoy
;
For
their
abuse
,
doth
all
their
use
destroy
:
If
want
of
these
a
thankfulnesse
produce
For
blessings
,
which
we
had
not
in
their
use
:
Are
we
not
then
more
happy
in
their
losse
,
(
Had
we
all
that
Lucullus
did
engrosse
?
)
'T
is
then
the
use
,
makes
happy
men
,
not
having
Of
that
we
use
not
well
,
or
still
are
craving
More
then
we
have
;
be
it
or
more
or
lesse
,
A
thankfull
state
is
mans
true
happinesse
.
Imprisonment
,
admit
it
neere
so
close
,
Is
to
a
wise
man
but
his
soules
repose
;
And
the
lesse
roome
he
hath
,
his
soul
's
more
free
Then
when
she
had
her
wanton
liberty
.
Weak
eyes
cannot
endure
the
glaring
light
,
Of
the
bright
Sunne
;
nor
things
which
are
too
white
.
These
doe
disperse
the
Radii
of
the
eyes
,
We
better
can
endure
the
cloudy
skies
;
Were
I
immur'd
so
I
could
see
no
Sunne
,
My
soule
her
wing'd
horses
could
out-runne
:
I
could
with
heaven
a
correspondence
keep
,
As
Ionas
did
close
prisoner
in
the
deep
.
The
Prophet
in
the
Dungeon
was
in
heaven
,
Iohn
in
the
Isle
had
all
his
visions
given
:
Men
in
the
deepest
pits
,
see
best
by
farre
The
Sunnes
Eclipses
;
and
finde
every
starre
,
When
sight
's
contracted
and
is
more
intent
;
(
So
is
mens
soules
in
close
imprisonment
,
)
We
then
can
upwards
look
on
things
above
,
Worthy
our
contemplation
and
our
love
:
We
are
not
Sunne
▪
blin'd
with
reflections
then
,
Of
dazling
glory
,
nor
depend
on
men
;
These
mediums
cannot
then
the
soule
deceive
,
It
s
in
a
dungeon
can
more
cleere
perceive
:
And
lights
most
welcome
;
then
the
least
is
more
,
When
thus
contracted
,
then
the
Sunne
before
.
Are
we
not
happyest
when
we
least
desire
,
And
nothing
that
's
below
the
sunne
admire
?
When
w'
are
united
to
our
God
above
(
As
wives
to
absent
▪
husbands
whom
they
love
)
By
our
souls
union
,
when
our
souls
on
fire
Inwardly
burning
with
zeale
melt
in
desire
.
A
Nunc
dimittis
,
with
old
Simeon
sing
,
And
wish
each
bell
we
heare
,
his
knell
should
ring
:
And
yet
not
weary
of
our
lives
,
for
then
Imprisonment
is
a
hell
on
earth
to
men
.
I
have
sometimes
seene
an
indulgent
father
Make
his
deare
child
,
rods
for
himselfe
to
gather
,
And
then
his
wanton
liberty
restraine
,
Nay
make
him
fetters
of
a
slender
twine
,
Sharply
correct
him
,
make
him
kisse
the
rod
,
Tries
his
obedience
:
And
just
thus
does
God
With
his
deare
children
,
(
if
well
understood
)
Wise
parents
know
t
is
for
their
childrens
good
.
And
know
we
not
,
God
is
more
wise
by
far
,
And
more
indulgent
then
our
parents
are
?
Art
thou
injur'd
?
yet
take
thus
much
from
me
,
Who
sent
thee
thither
,
knowes
what
's
best
for
thee
.
Remember
Job
was
for
a
tryall
lent
To
Satan
;
how
he
bore
his
punishment
:
God
crown'd
his
patience
,
for
he
gave
him
more
(
Besides
the
honour
)
then
he
had
before
.
Yet
if
in
this
thou
lovest
thy
reward
,
God
will
not
then
thy
patience
regard
.
Nor
paines
nor
patience
the
true
Martyr
makes
,
It
is
the
Cause
the
Martyr
undertakes
.
Martyrs
are
witnesses
of
truth
to
death
;
This
is
but
duty
,
so
falls
far
beneath
The
weight
of
the
reward
:
we
dare
not
say
That
Saints
can
merit
an
Aureola
.
For
we
say
when
man
does
,
what
he
is
able
,
Come
to
Gods
Scale
,
he
is
unprofitable
,
Our
haires
are
numbred
by
our
God
we
know
,
He
sets
them
highest
,
whom
he
finds
placed
low
.
He
in
the
Lyons
den
,
did
Daniel
owne
,
And
set
upon
his
head
the
Favourites
Crown
.
Art
thou
imprison'd
?
looke
up
thou
shalt
find
,
Thou
hast
a
strange
enlargment
in
thy
mind
.
Th'
are
more
ingaged
far
,
Imprisoned
thee
;
And
shall
come
to
accompt
,
when
thou
art
free

A
Paraphrase
upon
the
Verses
which
Famianus
Strada
made
of
the
Lutanist
and
Philomell
in
contestation
,
Pag.
399.
Jam
Sol
,
&c.
WHen
past
the
middle
Orbe
the
parching
Sun
Had
downward
nearer
our
Horizon
run
,
A
Lutenist
neare
Tibers
streames
had
found
Where
the
Eccho
did
resound
.
Under
a
holme
a
shady
bower
he
made
To
ease
his
cares
,
his
severall
Phancies
playd
,
The
Philomell
no
sooner
did
the
Musicke
hear
,
But
straight
wayes
she
drew
neare
.
The
harmlesse
Syren
musicke
of
the
wood
Hid
in
a
leavy
bush
,
she
hearking
stood
,
She
ruminates
upon
the
Ayers
he
plaid
,
And
to
him
answers
made
.
With
her
shirl
voyce
doth
all
his
paines
requi●●
.
Lost
not
one
note
;
but
to
his
play
sung
right
,
Well
pleased
to
heare
her
skil
,
and
envy
,
he
Tryes
his
Variety
.
And
dares
her
with
his
severall
notes
,
runs
throw
Even
all
the
strains
his
skill
could
reach
unto
:
A
thousand
wayes
he
tryes
,
she
answers
all
,
And
for
new
straynes
dares
call
.
He
could
not
touch
a
string
in
such
a
straine
,
To
which
she
warble
and
not
sung
it
plaine
;
His
fingers
could
not
reach
to
greater
choice
,
Then
she
did
with
her
voyce
.
The
Lutenist
admir'd
her
narrow
throat
Could
reach
so
high
,
or
fall
to
any
note
:
But
that
which
he
did
thinke
in
her
most
strange
,
She
instantly
could
change
.
Or
sharpe
,
or
●lat
,
or
meane
,
or
quicke
,
or
slow
,
Whar
ere
he
plaid
,
she
the
like
skill
would
show
:
And
if
he
inward
did
his
notes
recall
,
She
answer
made
to
all
.
Th'inraged
Lutenist
he
blusht
for
shame
,
That
he
could
not
this
weake
corrivall
tame
,
If
thou
canst
answer
this
I
'le
breake
my
Lute
,
And
yeild
in
the
Dispute
.
He
said
no
more
but
aimes
at
such
a
height
Of
skill
he
thought
she
could
not
imitate
:
He
shows
the
utmost
cunning
of
his
hand
And
all
he
could
command
.
He
tryes
his
strength
,
his
active
fingers
flye
To
every
string
,
and
stop
,
now
low
,
now
high
,
And
higher
yet
he
multiplyes
his
skill
,
Then
doth
his
Chorus
fill
.
Then
he
expecting
stands
to
try
if
she
His
envy
late
would
yeeld
the
victory
,
She
would
not
yeeld
,
but
summons
all
her
force
Though
tyred
out
and
hoarse
.
She
strives
with
various
strings
the
Lutes
bast
chest
,
The
spirit
of
man
,
one
narrow
throat
and
Chest
:
Unequal
matches
,
yet
she
's
pleasd
that
she
Concludes
Victoriously
.
Her
spirit
was
such
,
she
would
not
live
to
heare
The
Lutenist
bestow
on
her
a
jeere
,
But
broken
hearted
fell
upon
the
Tombe
She
choose
the
sweet
Lutes
wombe
.
The
warbling
Lutes
doe
yet
their
Triumphs
tell
,
(
With
mournfull
accents
)
of
the
Philomell
,
And
have
usurpt
the
title
ever
since
Of
harmony
the
Prince
.
The
Morall
this
,
by
emulation
wee
May
much
improve
both
art
,
and
industry
;
Though
she
deserve
the
name
of
Philomell
,
Yet
men
must
her
excell
.
Comparison
.
COblers
are
call'd
Translators
,
so
are
we
,
(
And
may
be
well
call'd
so
)
we
so
agree
:
They
rip
the
Soale
first
from
the
upper
leather
,
Then
steepe
,
then
stretch
,
then
patch
up
all
together
.
We
rip
,
we
steep
,
we
stretch
,
and
take
great
paines
,
They
with
their
fingers
worke
,
we
with
our
Braines
.
They
trade
in
old
shooes
,
as
we
doe
in
feet
,
To
make
the
fancy
,
and
the
Language
meete
.
We
make
all
smooth
(
as
they
doe
)
and
take
care
,
What
is
too
short
,
to
patch
:
too
large
,
to
pare
:
When
they
have
done
,
then
to
the
Club
they
goe
,
And
spend
their
gettings
,
doe
not
we
doe
so
?
Coblers
are
often
poore
,
yet
merrie
blades
,
Translators
rarely
rich
,
yet
cheerefull
lads
.
Who
thinkes
he
wants
,
he
is
in
plentie
poore
,
Give
me
the
Coblers
wealth
,
I
le
aske
no
more
.
