Classic Poem

Gorgeous indeed the same is which you sent ,
Evermore still in vertuous steps who went;
O you who alwayes walk in gorgeous trace,
Rightly i'th end do geta gorgeous race.
Greatly your vertues so you make excell,
In which respect Fame forth your fame will tell;
Vertue enjoynes that you who gorgeously
Shew vertue forth, should have your fame on hie.

Set forward still, and still sexd gorgeous raies,
Encouraging the Poets you to praise;
That so you who do live in vertues path,
On honour'd Trophies may live still and laugh:
Making the honour that to you is done,
Entred upon Fames Roule, when you are gone.
