To the Right Honourable, Sir Thomas Iarmine, Knight and Vice-Chamberlaine to His Majesties Most Honourable Privy Councell

Thou the Vice-chamberlaine, where ere the Court
Hath its aboding, thither must resort,
On execution of your place still tending,
Most what remaining and your selfe still bending,
As doth your place and honour best befit,
Swiftly with diligence performing it.

In the Kings presence you should most remaine ,
And so his gracious favour you retaine;
Rendring still most part a prompt willing eare
Much of his wisdome cheerefully to heare.
In which place of your great preheminence,
Now let the Muses begge without offence,
E're to respect your hand-maids diligence.
