Another to him after his enlargement.

My Lord,

NO man can expound my doings more then your Lordship, which makes me need to say the less, only I humbly pray you to believe that I aspire to the conscience and commendation of Bonus Civis and Bonus Vir, and that I love some things better I confess then I love your Lordship; yet I love few persons better, both for gratitudes sake and for vertues, which cannot hurt but by accident. Of which my good af∣fection it may please your Lordship to assure your self of all the true effects and offices that I can yield: for as I was ever sorry your Lord∣ship should flie with many wings, doubting Icarus fortune; so for the growing up of your own feathers, be they Ostridges or other kind, no man shall be more glad; and this is the Axel-tree, whereupon I have turned and shall turn. Which having already signified unto you by some neer means, having so fit a Messenger for mine own Letter, I thought good to redouble also by writing. And so I commend you to Gods pro∣tection.

From Grayes Inne, &c.

FR. BACON.
