To the truely Generous and Noble Knight, Sir Iohn Millissent, Serjeant-Porter to the Kings most Excellent Majestie.
Right worthy Knight, when first this Book I writTo You, I boldly Dedicated it:
And having now enlarg'd both Prose and Rime,
To you I offer it the second time.
To whom should I these sorrowes recommend,
But unto You, the Cities Noble Friend?
I know you are much grieved with their griefe,
And would adventure Life for their reliefe:
To you therefore these Lines I Dedicate,
Wherein, their Sorrowes partly I relate,
I humbly crave acceptance at your hand:
And rest
Your Servant ever at command,
John Taylor.
