TO THE CVRTEOVS and wise yong Gentlemen vnited in Loue, Master N. H. Master Ro. W. Master I. H. Master L. K. Master H. A. and Master Tho. S. Henry Petowe wisheth increase of vertue and prosperous successe in all their affaires.
I Haue aduentured (curteous, vertuous, and wise) with the strong wrastlers of Olympia, though not to winne, yet to worke for the Garland, I meane the Laurell wreath of your gentle fauours. The iudgement of my labours relyeth on your seuerall censures, whereof if your opinions rel∣lish but one small taste of content, I presume vpon a generall liking of others; such is the sufficiencie I con∣ceaue of your discrete iudgements. Therefore touch and taste, taste and disgest but with such contentment that you may applaud the fruitfull operation. How it will prooue I know not, but I hope pleasant in disges∣ture: For howeuer the fruits of my toyle now rellish after the long gathering, I dare protest the tree from whence they were pluckt, came of a Royall stocke; make therefore your seuerall choyces of the best, and if you finde some more greene then others, impute it to their want of growth in that they are but yong,

But in hope they will all proue delicious according to your expectations, I present them in all loue to your kinde acceptances, pro∣mising as much in affection as any other can performe in perfection. Therefore looke and like of such as you finde, and I promise you (vnder your fauourable incou∣ragements) to imploy all my best designes and studies to your seuerall good likings.
Yours in all that he may, H. P.
