Ueritas inuicta.
To my vncle Geffrey Cartwrighte.
Thovghe Sathan striue, with all his maine, and mighte,
To hide the truthe, and dimme the lawe deuine:
Yet to his worde, the Lorde doth giue such lighte,
That to the East, and West, the same doth shine:
And those, that are so happie for to looke,
Saluation finde, within that blessed booke.
