le biass and over-sway Judgment. He also wrote a
Poem entituled _Madagascur_, also a _Farrago_ of his Juvenile, and
other Miscelaneous Pieces: But his Chiefest matter was what he wrote
for the _English_ Stage, of which was four Comedies, _viz._ _Love and
Honour_, _The Man is the Master_; _The Platonick Lovers_; and _The
Wits_. Three Tragedies; _Albovine_, _The Cruel Brother_, and _The
unfortunate Lovers_. Two Tragi-Comedies, the _Just Italian_; and the
_Lost Lady_. And Six Masques, _viz._ _Brittania Triumphans_; _The
Cruelty of the_ Spaniards _in_ Peru; _Drakes_ History First Part;
_Siege of Rhodes_ in two Parts, and _The temple of Love_; Besides his
Musical Drama's, when the usual Playes were not suffered to be Acted,
whereof he was the first Reviver and Improver by painted Scenes after
his Majesties Restoration; erecting a new Company of Actors, under the
Patronage of the Duke of _York_.

That he had got lately Travelling into _France_;
Modestly hoped the Handsomness of's Muse,
Might any Deformity about him excuse.

And

Surely the Company would have been content,
If they could have found any President;
But in all their Records either in Verse or Prose,
There was not one Laureat without a Nose.

His Works since his Death have been fairly Published in a large Volume;
to which I refer my Reader.

He was one was a good Souldier, Famous Mathematician, and an excellent
Poet; alwayes Loyal to his Prince: For whose Service he raised a Troop
of Horse at his own Charge, of which he became Captain himself; and
with much Gallantry and Resolution behaved himself. Nor was he less
serviceable to the Royal Cause with his Pen, of which he was a resolute
Assertor: Suffering very much by Imprisonment, even to the apparent
hazard of his Life. He having so Satyrically wounded them in his
_Elenctichus_, as left indelible Characters of Infamy upon their
Actions. His Excellent Works collected into one Volume, and Published
in the Year, 1683. By the Ingenious Mr. _Gadbury_, are a sufficient
