To his sacred Maiestie.

Disdaine not mightie Monarch to give eare
To this poore Nymph, who humbly doth entreate
Thine ayde; and pardon for her Song, which feare
In such a lowelie straine to THEE so great,
Presumes vpon thy goodnesse to present,
And by a Souldiers hand is to THEE sins.

By your Majestie most humble subject, servant and Souldier, Lawder.
