To Thomas Pegge Gentleman
From Two Bookes of Epigrammes, and Epitaphs (1639), Book I
Social Commentaries
Me thinkes I may to Sugar and to Wine
Our loves compare, which kind discourses mixt:
Since when, that heart that totally was mine,
Hath in your bosomes Paradise beene fixt.
What wonder then my Friendships force doth last
Firme to your goodnesse? you have pegg'd it fast.
