Io. Nordenivale, ad primam par∣tem sui SPECVLI BRITANNIAE.

VAde liber Speculi caput es, tua mēbra sequentur, ELISABETHA potens, arx{que} patrona tua est. Quid si in te domin úm{que} tuum ruet inuidus audax? Tu dominúsque tuus, tutus inermis eris. Ito foràs, valeásque liber, te forte sagaces Incultum voluant: caetera culta forent, Ibis in orbe gerens, quamuis tua fata libelle, Ardua principio, spes meliora canit. ELISABETHA valens, altissima, maxima, firma, Auxilium, quandò, sceua procella venit. Haec tibi conductum, non te pericula tangunt, Digna patrona illa est, spesque, salusque tua.
