To the Right Honourable, Philip, Lord Herbert, Sonne and Heire of Philip Earle of Pembrooke and Mountgomery

Pembrok's most peerelesse sonne, a bi brite peer ,
Heroicke Lord, dayne me to call you heere,
I know the birth from which you are descended,
Lively proclames you by , this height attended,
Is with bright rayes of brightnesse which shine cleare,
Peerelike which sets you forth a high brite peer.

Hi though you be, yet daine you nerethelesse,
Even bowels of a true Peer to expresse,
Regarding of the poore and sending forth
Brightly on them, the brightnes of your worth,
Each one may say then very well,
Rightly doe Herberts by bright peeres excell.
That in your very name, help by bright peer ,
Expressing forth your bounty shining cleare.
