Upon the Right Honourable Lady, the Lady, Mary Beauchamp of Edington, in the County of Wilts

Romana vivit clarior Iliâ.

A dwarfe may on a giant look; and I
May speak of her, whose merits are so high.
Count all the various flowers of May; declare,
Of stars what number by creation are.
This may be sooner done, than you can tell
What sacred vertues in this Temple dwell.
Would you find bounty? or do you desire
To see Religion in his best attire.
Would you know meeknesse, charity and love,
Which are the touchstones, that our faith doth prove
These vertues are included in her breast,
Like precious Jewels in a golden chest.
Her kinred, neighbors, tenants, and the poor,
Yea, strangers do frequent, and blesse her door.
Twixt her and Saints I do no difference know,
But this, they are above, and she below.
And if all had so pure a mind as she,
Heaven on earth, and earth would heaven be.
