22. To my right worthy friend, Mr. Michael Drayton, whose vnwearied old Muse still produceth new dainties.
When I was young, I did delight your lines,I haue admyr'd them since my iudging times:
Your younger muse plai'd many a dainty fit,
And your old muse doth hold out stoutly yet.
Though my old muse durst passe through frost and snow,
In warres your old muse dares her Colours shew.
