To my worthy friend Tho. Adams on his HERBAL.
To my worthy friend Tho. Adams on his HERBALL.
The Herbs which these dead leaves now bring, Thy living voice did sweetly sing. That thy transported Hearers thought A PARADISE before them brought. As if their inward eyes had seen Another EDEN fresh and green. How they will smell, or taste, thus sent, Will be perceived in the event. I stay no censures; for my part, May they grow green still in my hart.

As if their inward eyes had seene Another EDEN fresh and greene. How they will smell, or taste, thus sent, Will be perceiu'd in the euent. I stay no censures; for my part, May they grow greene still in my hart.
