This doth embalme our Dead beyonde the art,
Proud Ægypt used of old, his head and Heart,
Prudence and Pietie enriched, his Hand,
Justice and Charity, did still command;
He was the Churches and Poore Man's Friend,
Wealth got by Law, the Gospel taught to spend.
From hence he learn't that what is sent before,
Of our Estates, doth make us rich farr more,
Than what we leave, and therefore did he send,
Great Portions wekely, thus he did commend,
His Faith by Workes, in Heaven did Treasure lay,
Which to possess his Soule is called away;
Here only is reserved his precious Dust,
Until the Resurrection of the just."
