Henry the se∣venth, and Elizabeth, eldest Daugh∣ter to Edward the fourth, borne at Greenewich the 17. of September, 1534.

If Royall Vertues ever crown'd a Crowne, If ever Mildnesse shin'd in Majesty, If ever Honour honour'd true Renowne, If ever Courage dwelt with Clemency, If ever Princesse put all Princes downe, For Temperance, prowesse, prudence, equity, This, this was she, that in despight of death, Lives still admir'd, ador'd, ELIZABETH.

As in a Booke.

They that trust in the Lord, shall bee as Mount Sion, which cannot be remo∣ved, but remaineth for ever.

Spaines Rod, Romes ruine, Netherlands reliefe, Heavens Iem, Earths joy, Worlds wonder, Naturos chiefe.

Vnder her.

Th'admired Princesse through the world applauded, For supreme Vertues rarest imitation; Whose Scepters rule, Fames loud voic'd Trump hath lauded, Vnto the eares of every forraigne Nation, Canopied under powerfull Angels wings, To her immortall praise sweet Science sings.
