[11] To Sir WILLIAM YELVERTON of Ruffham.

Tis meete [a] Virgils Quill should write of thee,
Where such a concurrence of G[r]aces bee;
That were all Gentrie out of frame, we might
By thee take patterne, how to set it right.
Thy worth a brisker Muse then mine requires;
Then let them sing while mine alone admires.
