AN ANAGRAM OF THE NAME OF OVR DRAD PRINCE, MY MOST Gracious and sacred Mœcænas;
HENRYE PRINCE OF VVALES OVR SVNN, HEYR, PEACE, LIFE.
Be to vs as thy great Name doth import,(Prince of the people;) nor suppose it vaine,
That in this secret, and prophetique sort,
Thy Name and Noblest Title doth containe
So much right to vs; and as great a good.
Nature doth nothing vainly; much lesse Art
Perfecting Nature. No spirit in our blood,
But in our soules discourses beares a part.
What Nature giues at randon in the one,
In th' other, orderd, our diuine part serues.
Thou art not Heyr then, to our state alone;
But Svnn, Peace, Life. And what thy powre deserues
Of vs, and our good, in thy vtmost strife;
Shall make thee to thy selfe, Heyr, Svnn, Peace, Life.
