To the Right Honourable, the Lord Fraser of Muckoll

Lords fees are rare , for Lords fees rare should be
O noble Hero, for an Angels fee
Requires each petty Counceller, and then
Doubles a Lords fee these as much agen
Expressing the rare prowesse of the minde,

Farre from most Lawyers this fee we doe finde,
Raking now here, now there for fees they rooke,
Admitting onely thus, 'tis in my booke.
Sir, your Lords fees shews you most truely wise,
Endeavouring alwayes not to covetize:
Rather indeed most nobly you doe shew
Expected crop of grace, your field will flow.
