TO the Right Honourable Philip Herbert Earl of Pembrook.

Vouchsafe great Lord, that art our Nations pride
In whose rare Vertues, they alone confide
To be the Patron, of my humble Muse
Who doth thee onely, her Mæcenas chuse:
This work displayes the times, therefore tis meet
I should present it, humbly at thy feet
Who art no server of the times, but thou
Will serve thy Nation, and thy help allow
For to maintain their Priviledges and be
A propogator, of Gods veritie.
To thee therefore great Lord, this work I give
That I and it, may in thy favour live.
