AN ANAGRAM OF THE NAME OF OVR DRAD PRINCE, MY MOST Gracious and sacred Moecaenas; HENRYE PRINCE OF VVALES OVR SVNN, HEYR, PEACE, LIFE.

BE to vs as thy great Name doth import, (Prince of the people;) nor suppose it vaine, That in this secret, and prophetique sort, Thy Name and Noblest Title doth containe So much right to vs; and as great a good. Nature doth nothing vainly; much lesse Art Perfecting Nature. No spirit in our blood, But in our soules discourses beares a part. What Nature giues at randon in the one, In th'other, orderd, our diuine part serues. Thou art not HEYR then, to our state alone; But SVNN, PEACE, LIFE. And what thy powre deserues Of vs, and our good, in thy vtmost strife; Shall make thee to thy selfe, HEYR, SVNN, PEACE, LIFE.
