To the Right Honourable, and his Most Noble Lady, ELIZABETH Countess of Arundel and Surrey.

The hope of this (Ma∣dam) induced this oblation,

which no wayes is proportiona∣ble to your Ladyships high qua∣lity, but rather as a monument erected to the memory, and re∣ligious sence I have, of your. Ladyships Noble favours to me And since no other motive en∣gag'd me in this Offering, what book could I have found, more agreeable, and more sutable to your Honours condition, where a Life so full of Piety, and so farr above the common pitch of others, is presented to your Lady∣ships view. As the Sun there∣fore (Madame) when it is at the highest, imparts the greatest benefit to the Earth, so your Ladyship, I hope (who is in so high and so eminent a sphere of

Nobility, and worth) will im∣part the rayes, and influence of a favourable Acceptance, to the low endeavours of
Madam,
Your Ladyships most devoted and most humble Servant John Burbury.
