To the Right Honorably Honored and Right Well-Beloved Yonge Earle of Essex, &c.
Deere offsprings of that all-belooued One ,
Deere vnto all to whom that one was deere;
The Orphane's God requites thy cause of mone
By Him , that doth to all like God appeere.
Al those that loue you (al-beloued Two )
Will blesse and loue him for it , blest of God
To comfort Innocents , and Orphanes too,
That ruin'd were by fell Disaster's Rod .
Liue like His Sonne that liv'd too like him selfe .
And dide like one , deere to Him without like;
He wrackt his fortunes on false Favor's shelfe,
Which are this world's , that smiles when it doth strike
And, that thou mai'st thy country glorifie
No lesse then hee, all pray; then needes must I.
