Epig. 23 Ad Robertum Dalton Armig.

Kindnes it selfe, and Vertues vicegerent,
Learnings maintainer, Pouerties releeuer,
Valours bright ensigne, Honors heire apparent,
Gentlemans behauiour, Governments vpholder,
These titls claim, these, more thē these thine own,
If more may be, or more in mā was known.
