Social Commentaries
Of concord
From Two Bookes of Epigrammes, and Epitaphs (1639), Book II
Social Commentaries
God many of each sort of creatures made,
As of birds, beasts, and plants; but of mankind
His wisedomes depth the first foundation laid
Onely in two, and those as one combind;
That all, remembring how from one they came,
Might with the bent of love at union aime.
