E corpore palch••o Gr••••ior•• TO THE RIGHT NOBLE, AND MOST TOWA••DLY YOVNG PRINCE, CHARLES DVKE OF YORKE.
[illustration]

SWEETE Duke,* 1.1 that bear'st thy Fathers Image right
Aswell in * 1.2 bodie, as thy towardly mind;
Within whose cheeke * 1.3 me thinkes in Red and white
Appeare the Roses yet againe conioind;
Where, howsoe're their warres appeased be,
Each, striues with each, for Soveraignitie.

Since Nature then in her faire-Angell mould,
Hath framd thy bodie, shew'd her best of art:
Oh let thy mind the * 1.4 fairest virtues hold,
Which are the beautie of thy better part:
And which, (braue CHARLES) shall make vs * 1.5 loue thee more,
Then all thy state we outwardly adore.
