With Him they did suppress all lofty flights of Poetry.
All melting Airs, and rapt'ring Harmony,
But this Revenge, let Mankind take from me.
If any dare on  Death to Write,
Not to express their Grief, but shew their Wit,
I the ambitious Purpose will Reverse,
Deny my Aid,
And so shall each inspiring Maid.
Resolving ungrateful Man that could contemn
Such noble Excellence in Him.
Shall never more the Blessing know,
We'll ne'r again our Influence bestow.
Tho' 'tis pretended to adorn his Herse.
(Unless the generous  implore,
Then in him shall all our Glories shine as heretofore.)
But to express our own immortal Love,
We'll Solemnize Great  Obsequies above,
Our Grief such Emphasis shall bear,
As no Corporeal Organs can declare,
And one Eternal Sigh spread thro' the Extended Air.
