Syrack. XXXII.

Yf God to rule, do thee elect
Pryde not thy selfe therin
As one of thyne, be in effect
Thy people so to wynne.
Let care for them, be thy repast
That wysedome be their choyse
And when thy dutye, done thou hast
Syt downe wyth them reioyce.
Of honour then, receyue the crowne
In wysedome to excell
For wisdom, wynneth great renowne
whych doth become thee well.
Hynder not Musyke.
