He is also mentioned, with more reverence implied, by George Daniel of Beswick; and we may well conclude this second part of our Appendix with the final verses from the Beswick MS. (1636-53); insomuch as many Poets are therein mentioned, to whom we return in Section Fourth:—
The noble Overburies Quill has left [verse 20]
A better Wife then he could ever find:
I will not search too deep, lest I should lift
Dust from the dead: Strange power, of womankind,
To raise and ruine; for all he will claime,
As from that sex; his Birth, his Death, his Fame.
But I spin out too long: let me draw up
My thred, to honour names, of my owne time
Without their Eulogies, for it may stop
