and affable nature and loving and courteous disposition Of his indefatigable diligence in his imployments and shunning yea hating of idlenesse I shall only adde one word more of his ingeniousnesse in and the usefulnesse of his recreations which were divers one while he exercised himself in the Art of Dialling another while he applied himself to Musick But I shall say no more of these because he attained not to any perfection in them that which he followed with most diligence and delight was the Art of Drawing Painting and Limning whereof he hath left many very good Pieces for so young a Practitioner and had he lived longer probably he would have attained to a great perfection therein He had also a Poëtical Vein whereof I shall give you a taste by and by His meditation upon the History of Christs Transfiguration Matth. 17. 1 c. Jesus Christ is so willing that we should have communion with him in this life that he takes us up into his most secret retirements Prayer is a divine ascention and whosoever would pray spiritually must have an holy elevation of spirit to meet God in that duty High Turrets of faith and mountains of graces are the real helps in prayer In prayer we are sure to enjoy Gods presence It 's a sure way to see God face to face and if I may so say in his natural complexion we may meet with God as Moses did in the Mount Sinai of Prayer It was in the Mount praying when the fashion of Christs countenance was altered It is in the mountain of prayer that Christs purity appeareth more and more to a believer Never more whitenesse do believers see in Christ then in their prayers to him In this life the Saints have a taste of the glistering and whitenesse of his out-side But in the life to come it is that they have immediate fruition of himself In this life we only see a sudden transfiguration to stay our stomacks as I may say till hereafter at what time we shall see him as he is and if this transfiguration appears white He began to write a Book in Verse which he calls Spuma Musarum which he purposed to dedicate to his Father and Mother I shall only give you an account of the first Verses in it that by them you may judge of the rest Rete venatur ventos To hunt the winds with a net Thou that do'st strive the windes with net to catch Unfruitful labours to thy self do'st hatch What! catch the wind If caught thou 'lt not enjoy Thy dear times worth to purchase such a toy And when y' have done look in your net you 'l find All that remains is folly yea and wind Many littles make a mickle 'T is Unity brings strength if then you 'ld have Strong Noble Vertues Vices to outbrave Unite your weak-limb'd forces and you 'l see Many a little will a mickle be T. B. FINIS Upon the death of that pious young Gentleman Mr. Thomas Bewlije Thomas Beulije Anagram O beati humiles If either Fate or Fortune had Made such a breach among us I should have call'd them blind or mad Or envious thus to wrong us I should have in my showers of tears exprest A weeping eye with furious anger drest That when in all the garden did But one choice flower appear It should be thus nipt in the bud Who can with patience bear But most in that in this one flower alone The sole hope of the Root is overthrown But stay it was a better hand More sacred and more wise Then Fate or Fortune can command Those Heathen-Deities The root 's not dead the flower is but transplanted With added beauty which before it wanted And happy they who humbly can submit To Him whose Wisdom hath transplanted it Thomas Beulye Anagram Thy Love-beams THY LOVE-BEAMS Lord so strongly shone on me That I impatient was of more delayes But needs must leave the Earth to go and see The sacred Fountain of those glorious rayes Thomas Beulie Anagram The Smile above * * The posie of the Ring given at the Funeral Set your affections on things above Not things of sence It was THE SMILE ABOVE loadstone of love That drew me hence Ad Parentes Thomas Beaulie Anagram Leave me as I both LEAVE ME AS I BOTH you 't is for our gain When you know how I do you 'l not complain Thomas Bewlie Anagram I 'me well as both I 'ME WEL AS BOTH you can be nay I am Better because triumphing with the Lamb Yet I 'me not gone for ever our parting is Till Death unlock for you this door of bliss J. C. A. M. On the Death of that Ingenious industrious and pious young Gentleman Mr. Thomas Bewlie Junior OH death of terrors King could nothing move Thee to suspend this stroak no not the love Nor cries of Parents Tutor Friends and all That knew his worth and now bemoan his fall Nor 's age but eighteen years nor that estate To which this onely Sonne was destinate Not's active soul and hand nor 's nimble head Nor 's skill in Common-Law could thee out-plead Nor 's tongues nor 's Logick nor 's Philosophy Nor 's drawing Limning nor his Poetry Not disposition sweet nor 's gracious heart Not's love to God! nor that he did impart To Saints not's pity great to poor and such As age and chance with want afflicted much No! Servant like thou but to passe didst bring The Counsel wise of God his Soveraign King Who at this time and thus hath cropt this Rose With 's hand of love and giv'n't a safe repose In heaven above where he doth clearly see What in his Mountain thoughts he spied to be Then cease you Parents Tutor Friends to waile He is with God your grief cannot avail Another VIew underneath this stone a fancy choice Invention good a Sed'lous hand to poise The greatest things a mind made wise by grace And Tongues with Arts not Scantlingly t' embrace His Parents joy now grief his kindreds losse O' th' Bewlies Phoenix here remains the drosse On the Death of his dear Friend and cousen Mr. Thomas Bewley Junior Gent. ARt fled dear Soul and is thy purer breath Become a Victime ah too rich for death Could not the Riv'lets from thy Parents eyes Prevail for once to drown the destinies Or 's death so envious that th' art onely shown Cropt like a bud before thou wer 't well blown Envious indeed in that he doth deny Us the enjoyment of thy company Which joyn'd with goodnesse and a candid mind Must few Aequators no Ascendent find But here methinks injustice taints my will In that while worth'less I would take my fill In Traffique sure Divine of which each part Throughout thy Soul might make a sev'ral Mart. I envy thee that perfect happy shore To which on earth 't was thy desire to soaere Injust perhaps it seems yet let me say That though I could have wish'd a longer stay So great 's thy gain in thy friends greatest losse That wee 'l conjoyn the harp unto the crosse To thee thy parents greatest love did run A fit Meridian for affections Sun And nature will have vent perhaps immerse Their eyes in tears attending on thy Herse Yet should but an Impartial Judge stand by He 'd think your tears from passions contrary Proceeded that that seeming dismal sound Did not through sorrow but through joy abound That 's love indeed if Parents don't complain At their own losse if 't be their childrens gain 'Twixt Joy and Sorrow T.
