Social Commentaries
To Gilbert Knyveton, Gentleman
From Two Bookes of Epigrammes, and Epitaphs (1639), Book I
Social Commentaries
YOu beare his Name that beare me much good-will,
And bound me with the golden tyes of Love
T'addresse my service to his Off-spring still:
Whose true devoire may it accepted prove,
So shall the wandring Starre of my desire
Be culminant, nor farther needs t'aspire.
