A Fawning Flatterer Dan Taylor/Thou sea'st not what thou see'st, then doe not say/ That this is Hee: who calls a lump of clay/Without the Soul a Man? Thou seest no Mora,/ Nay but the shadow of that lump what store/Of guifts and graces what perfections rare/ Among 10 000 Persons scatter'd are/Gather in One; Imagine it to bee/His Shadowses sub- stance And then say 'tis hee/ A down-right Dealer I: Vicars/ I shame to sea, what (beer) I see, and say/That this is Hee, who fast and loose doth play/With Piety. A Soul full of Deceipt/Closd in a Lump of Clay the World to cheat/In whom the Scatter'd Boyles of Errors base/Of full 10 000 Sectarias take place/Gath'rad in One. And thus if thou wilt see/Heresies substance, in a shade tis Hee. Half-portrait between emblematic composition (with verbal decoration) looking left, Engraving. 12.0 x 14.0 cm. Plate-mark trimmed off.
