So soone as

v. power was giuen.
to further your honor
I omitted
nothing
in gracing of you,
which
lay
either
in putting dignities vpon you
v. in the reward of vertue
or
in speaking honora∣bly of you

perceiue

so much

by the Senats decree:
for so
it is recorded,
as
sentence
was delivered
by mee,
out of my writing,

howbeit

which
you sent
vnto mee,
that you tooke delight
rather
in the iudgement
of good men,
then in the badges
of glory:
yet
thought
that we were to con∣sider,

you required
nothing

indebted vnto you

You shall conferre
id est. you shall make the vpshot of: you shall make a full ende
the last
with the first.
For let him dispatch
the warre,
who
put Marke Antony to the worst.
v. oppressed
Therefore
Homer
termed
not Aiax,
nor Achilles,
but Vlisses,
the Citty-waster:
Fare you well.
