EMBLEME 4
VVhen Peace (suspecting he would warre inferre,)Tooke Henry hence, to liue aboue with her,
She bade Ioues Bird returne from's quicke convoy
Of his faire soule, left in Heav'ns lasting Ioy,
And mildly offer to your Princely hands,
This Embleme of soft Peace and Warlike bands:
Both vvhich (vs'd rightly) their large cares extend
To gaine o're others, and their owne defend.
Though all bright Honours did their Beauties shroud
In his Ecclipse, like Phœbus in a cloud:
Yet at your Rising, they more cleare againe
Peept-forth, like Sun-shine after clouds and raine.
And in your worth their worthinesse displayes
To worthiest Princes; as the Sun, his rayes.
