The shevving of his good Hart.
The Gloue for gadge is rightly geuen, where thinges concluded bee,Wherefore I do accompte therof, more then of golde or fee,
Of whiche if I were storde, like Cresus in his time,
I vow to thee if thou so woulde, it should be wholy thine,
Where to if I with Salomon, in wisdome might compare,
And bewtie had like Absolon, whose matche is very rare,
Like eloquence to Cicero, in power Cæsars peare,
Yet would I be as now I stande, your faithfull seruant deare:
And thus I rest in Hauen hope, whose bosome doth imbrace
Your gloue as you till trackte of time, may purchase further grace.
Finis.
