Elegie on D. D. 1635-69: it follows Walton's elegy.
On Dr John Donne, late Deane of S. Paules, London.
LONG since this taske of teares from you was due,
Long since, ô Poëts, he did die to you,
Or left you dead, when wit and he tooke flight
On divine wings, and soard out of your sight.
5Preachers, 'tis you must weep; The wit he taught
You doe enjoy; the Rebels which he brought
