Book II, 72: On PLAVSVS

Plausus of late, hath rais'd an Hospitall,
Repay'rd a Church; Founded a Colledge Hall:
Plausus hath built a holy Temple; vow'd it
To God: Erects a Schoole, and has endow'd it:
Plausus hath given, through his abundant pity,
A Spittle to the blind, and lame o'th' Citty:
Plausus allowes a Table for the poore
O'th Parish; besides those, he seeds at doore:
Plausus relieves the Prisons; Mends the Wayes;
Maintaines a Lecture, on the Market dayes:
Plausus, in briefe, for bounty beares the Bell;
Plausus has don much Good; but nothing, Well.
