 | The Emperovr of the East |  |
EPILOGVE.
Wee haue reason to be doubtfull, whether heeOn whom (forc'd to it by necessitie)
The maker did conferre his Emperours part
Hath giuen you satisfaction, in his art
Of action and deliuerie; 'tis sure truth
The burden was too heauie for his youth
To vndergoe: but in his will wee know
Hee was not wanting, and shall euer owe
With, his, our seruice, if your fauours daine
To giue him strength, heereafter to sustaine
A greater waight. It is your grace that can
In your allowance of this write him man
Before his time, which if you please to doe
You make the Player, and the Poet too.
