Classic Poem

Rightly that you th' inrolled tombe may reach
On honour as a mountaine, you doe teach
Best acts how to persever, and them frame
Exactly so, to get a lasting name:
Recorded so a Chronicle shall be,
Tackt to your tombe as Epitaph for thee:

Chronicling so your deeds of worthy worth,
Heroickly which you did blazon forth,
On top of you recording how you did
Living with honour your remembrance spred,
Making yourselfe the poore mans Almnery,
Verting your eyes upon their misery:
Noting the valour, tho then parted,
Did rest within you, who are now strong hearted.
Let then your light in this your dignity
Exactly so be, that in memory
You rech inrolled tombe worth to discry.
