To the Right Honorable and highly renowmed Lady the Countesse of Pembrooke, the Vertuous Lady, Lady Anne her daughter, and the Right Worthie and Worshipfull Phillipp Herbert Esquier her Sonne.

Thus must poore Debters pay their Creditors,
And share a little, where the due is more;
I owe my selfe to you, great Favorers,
And I am little; so are great Ones, poore:
I owe my selfe vnto my selfe; and so
Doe I to those whom as my selfe I loue;
I owe you more; the three in One belowe,
Which I haue honor'd most next That aboue:
If more, what more? sith that's more thē I haue
(for I am not so much mine owne, as yours;)
More by as much as what I else might crave
I wish it mine for you; for, in your powres
All that and more, (if more could be possest)
Should, while you held me yours, yours firmly rest.

I. D.
