[After a prose eulogy of Quaker preacher:]
  Salkeld, from silent sitting, slow would rise, 
  And seem as with himself he did advise, 
  His first words would be soft, but might be heard;
  He look'd resolv'd, yet spoke as if he feard.
  . . . [12 lines]
  And when he ceased still the musick rings, 
  And ev'ry breast its Hallelujah sings.
