TO THE MOST ACCOMPLISHED GENTLEMAN,

MASTER EDWARD NORGATE, CLERK OF THE SIGNET

TO HIS MAJESTY.    EPIG.


by Robert Herrick

FOR one so rarely tun'd to fit all parts,
For one to whom espous'd are all the arts,
Long have I sought for, but could never see
Them all concentr'd in one man, but thee.
Thus, thou that man art whome the fates conspir'd
To make but one, and that's thyself, admir'd.
