You are come in good tyme, Instruction our treasure,

Take here of me before I take my leaue,
This glasse of Christal cleare which I you geaue
Accept it and reserue it for my sake most sure,
Much good to you in time it may procure,
Bedold your selfe therin, and view and prye,
Marke what defectes it wil discouer and discrye,
And so wyth iudgement rype, and curiouse eye,
What is a mysse indeuor to supplye,
Farewell.

Farewell to you, right honourable syr:
And commend me to my loue my hartes desyre,

And loke what order you shall prescribe as needefull,
To kepe the same you shall fynd me as heedefull:
Come,

Instruction.
Come,

VVill.
Goe.
