WIth whatsoeuer Honour we adorneYour Royall issue; we must gratulate yowImperiall Soueraigne. Who of you is borne,Is you; One Tree, make both the Bole, and Bow.If it be honour then to ioyne you bothTo such a powerfull worke, as shall defendBoth from foule Death, and Ages ougly Moth;This is an Honor, that shall neuer end.They know not vertue then, that know not whatThe vertue of defending vertue is:It comprehends the guard of all your State,And ioynes your Greatnesse to as great a Blisse.Shield vertue, and aduance her then, Great Queene;And make this Booke your Glasse, to make it seene.
Your Maiesties in all subiection most humbly consecrate,
