TO THE RIGHT HONOVRABLE SIR EDVVARD COKE, KNIGHT, Lord Chief-Iustice of his Maiesties Court of Common-Pleas, &c.

GReat Caesars haue lesse Poems grac't,
Lesse in Sublimitie this plac't,
(Vnworthie though your Deapth, I graunt,
Yet might Ours past great Patrons vaunt)
Wooes your Allowance, whom my Muse
Doth its select Mecaenas chuse.
If with the right-hand what I giue
Be taken with the left, should grieue
So much more lesse by how much more
This meant I orphanag'd before:
Which now to you, as destinate,
I, yours deuoted, dedicate:

Most humbly, William Warner.
