TOl^ C. Sl^^XTil. 



Since honour from the honourer proceeds, 

 How well do they deserve, that memorize 

 And leave in books for aU posterities 

 The names of worthies and their virtuous deeds ; 

 When all their glory else, like water-weeds 

 Without their element, presently dies, 

 And all their greatness quite forgotten lies. 

 And when and how they flourished no man heeds ! 



— Flokio.
