[Herald]I, son of honour, 'spenser of her joys,
Must quickly go to give the spears around;
With aventayle and borne I men employ,
Who without me would fall unto the ground.

So the nesh flow'r grows in the woodland shade.
The world by difference is in order found,
Without unlikeness nothing could be made;
As in the bowke naught only can be done,
So in the weal of kind all things are parts of one.
