To the worthy knight Sir Edward Dyer, Chauncellor of the most Honorable order of the Garter.

NOt last nor least, for common good desarts I you repute, though fortune point your place: Your loue to vertue winneth many harts, And vertues followers do your loue imbrace. I know my argument requires no grace; Because grace it doth send, it brings delight: For both all sue, all loue their pleasing face, Yet vainely world, for both of them doth fight. To make more plaine the way for euery wight, This princely moderator paines did take, Which (to your equals) men of learned sight, A full accord (if well iudg'd worke) will make: You then kind Courtier & sound scholler knowne, Accept, reade, and protect these as your owne.
