To His Peculiar Friend Sir Edward Fish, Knight Baronet
Since for thy full deserts (with all the rest
Of these chaste spirits, that are here possest
Of Life eternall) Time has made Thee one,
For growth in this my rich Plantation:
Live here: But know 'twas vertue, & not chance,
That gave Thee this so high inheritance.
Keepe it for ever; grounded with the good,
Who hold fast here an endlesse lively-hood.
