TO THE Q.: AFTER HIS RETURNE OUTE OF ITALYE.

Not longe agoe, in Poland traveiling,
Changing my tongue, my nation and my weede,
Mayne wordes I heard from forreyne mouth proceed,
Theyre wonder and thy glorie witnessing;
How from thy wisdome did those conquests spring
Which ruin'd them thy ruine which decreed.
But such as envyed thee in this agreed:
Thy iland's seate did thee most succoure bring;
So, if the sea by miracle were drye,
Easie thy foes thy kingdome might invade.
Fooles, which knowe not the power of thyne eye!
Thine eye hath made a thousand eyes to weepe,
And every eye a thousand seas hath made,
And each sea shall thyne ile in safetie keepe.
