In Authorem.
Inspired soules breath but the thoughts of blisse,
Whose humble hearts in heauē are onely placed
and while the worldlings run their course amisse,
In Graces eyes, are gratious spirits graced.
Whose humble hearts in heauē are onely placed
and while the worldlings run their course amisse,
In Graces eyes, are gratious spirits graced.
So may I say of that which heere I see,
Drawne from the fountaine of a heauenly spring:
Where those best humours alwaies nourisht be,
That make the soule of heau'nly comforts sing.

Continue therefore this good course of thine,
And God will blesse, and his blessed loue thee:
And such as know what comforts are deuine,
Will smile at them, that blindely wil reprooue thee.

And for my selfe, I finde thy labours such,
I cannot loue nor praise thy worke too much.
