To the R. Honorable and Most Learned Lord, the Lord Henry Haward, &c.
What hope the noble , vertuous , and the learn'd
May haue, they having now so rare a King ,
In thee learn'd, vertuous, noble , Lord's discern'd,
In whom these flourisht without cherrishing .
Where vertue raignes, her subiects shal beare rule ,
The learn'd , and vertuous , shee wil haue to sway:
For vice wel-learned, is but arm'd Misrule ,
By whom the vertuous stil are made awaie
Honors doe alter manners in those men
That are to honor and good manner foes;
In thee that is not to be feared then,
For each with thee , from thy conception groes
And sith Apollo now doth water them
They wil grow great togither with the stemme
May haue, they having now so rare a King ,
In thee learn'd, vertuous, noble , Lord's discern'd,
In whom these flourisht without cherrishing .
Where vertue raignes, her subiects shal beare rule ,
The learn'd , and vertuous , shee wil haue to sway:
For vice wel-learned, is but arm'd Misrule ,
By whom the vertuous stil are made awaie
Honors doe alter manners in those men
That are to honor and good manner foes;
In thee that is not to be feared then,
For each with thee , from thy conception groes
And sith Apollo now doth water them
They wil grow great togither with the stemme
