To the Right reuerend father in God To by Bishop of Duresme.

IF double cumber of the publike care, Of Paules and Peters sword and keyes may rest, I would intreat you some small time to spare, To view the face of your inuited gest: Of all men you haue cause to vse him best, Because you more then halfe the father are; To you therefore, I haue him first addrest, To haue his grace ere he proceed too farre: Your count'nance may his progresse mend or marre, Because (as of you first his life did grow) So must his course be guided by your starre, Which him first hope of heauenly light did show: Vouchsafe then to bestow, one reading more, To welcome him, or thrust him out of dore.
