Classic Poem

An able man, which al be led so well,
Rightly you must be, and in gifts excell;
Campe of rich able men who can command,
Having intelligence to understand:
In which we rightly do perceive you are
Bedecked well with understanding rare,
And government likewise you have at will,
Leading a Camp which might a Countrey fill;
Doubtles you are a Iusticer indeed,
Ever that govern as you see the need,

Correcting, and instructing as the cause,
And reason deemes according to the lawes,
Making the Countrey people so obey,
Plac't as if in a Camp they kept array,
Ensue the course you have begun so well,
Best Chronicles your fame aloud will tell,
Entring, that you be led a Camp al able ,
Lively (the after age will think a fable)
Like to a man, the worke pursue you on.
