Classic Poem

Hi noble Stafford , who from Buckingham ,
Eternally deserving nobly came,
No flattering lynes the Muses you afford,
Respecting truly whose worth honour'd Lord,
You well deserve more then can well be said.

Soe then, Right noble Lord, afford your aid,
That your high sterne may rightly placed be,
As is your true deserved dignity:
Firme then will say, Stafford did honour carne,
Freely when hee Afforded an high Stern ,
O may your honour with your age increase,
Resplending forth your truest noblenesse.
Doe then, High Stern , afford true happinesse.
