To The Lord Chancellor.

The North and Southerne Poles, the two fix'd Starres
Of worth and dignitie, which all iust warres,
Should still maintaine, together: be here met
And in your selfe as in your Scutchion set:
The halfe Moone 'twixt, threatens as yet no change,
Or if she doe, she promises to range,
Till she againe recouer what she lost:
Your endlesse fame, (so) gaines your Bounties cost.
