I should in naming thee force publicke teares,
And bid their eyes pay ransome for their cares.
First, thy whole life was a short feast of witt,
And Death th’ attendant which did waite on it:
To both mankind doth owe devotion ample,
To that their first, to this their last example.
And though ’twere praise enough (with them whose fame
And vertue’s nothing but an ample name)
That thou wert highly borne, (which no man doubtes)
And so mightst swath base deedes in noble cloutes;
