Social Commentaries
Of the blessed Trinity
From Two Bookes of Epigrammes, and Epitaphs (1639), Book II
Social Commentaries
Should I (as sometimes hath beene seene) behold
The King of Planets, with his beames of gold
Forming upon a Cloud, his Image bright,
And from those two, a third resulting light;
In such cleare objects should I seeme to see,
A shadow of th' all glorious Trinity.
