To my friend M. A H.
BY this one lim, my Holland, we may seeWhat thou in time at thy full growth maist bee,Which wit, by her owne Symetrie can take,And thy proportion perfectly can makeAt thy Ascendant: that when thou shalt showThy selfe; who reads thee perfectly shall knowThose of the Muses by this little lightSaw before other where to take thy height.Proceed, let not Apollo's stocke decay,Poets and Kings are not borne euery day.
Michael Drayton.
