TO THE MEMORY OF MR. W. SHAKESPEAR.

We wonder (Shakespear) that thou went'st so soon,
From the World's-Stage, to the Graves-Tyring-room.
We thought thee dead, but this thy Printed worth
Tells thy Spectators, that thou went'st but forth
To enter with applause. An Actors Art,

Can dye, and live, to act a second Part.

That's but an Exit of Mortality;

This, a Re entrance to a Plaudite.

J. M.
