TO THE VERY NOBLE, RELIGIOVS, AND MOST WORTHY, Master Nathaniel Bacon, ESQVIRE: and The Lady Iane Cornwalleys, his WIFE: Grace and Peace be multiplyed from God the Father, and from our Lord IESVS CHRIST.
SIR;
MAy it please you once a∣gain to giue me leaue to Grace my labours with your Noble name, which shall bee to them, as a Good Light to a Picture.
For thereby shall they appeare the more Specta∣ble; and bee the more fa∣uourably aspected of the Reader.

I wish that they could re∣flect, as much brightnesse vp∣on your Noblenesse, as they receiue splendor from it. But as a glasse more weakely re∣turneth the irradian Beames; so These.
I doe hereby (in what measure I am able) testifie my thankfulnesse for former Fauours, and beare witnes to your true Noblenesse; who haue, not onely the Pictures of the vertues and graces, (rarely done with your own hand) for the ornament of your house (though many in these daies virtutem ne pictam quidem viderunt) But themselues by a heauenly pen∣cill drawne in the table of your heart; which do ado••ne your life, and make mee to bee
Yours addicted, in all respectfull obseruance, ELNATHAN PARR.

MADAME;
AS is the boun∣tie of the Gi∣uer, so in Iu∣stice ought to bee the Ac∣knowledgment of the recei∣uer. Your Ladiship was the first aduancer of my studies, and estate; and so you haue continued; which is not the least Ornament of Honour.
Of Due therefore what∣soeuer I can performe is your Ladyships; then whom I

know none more truely Ho∣nourable, for (which is the Crowne of Ladyes and of all the daughters of Eue) Chasti∣ty; for meekenesse of Spirit (an Ornament of price for all the Daughters of Sara) for Charity &c.
For neither will your excel∣lent modesty suffer, nor this short Epistle suffice to the re∣lation of your deserued praises.
As we behold the maiesty of things sacred with venerable silence & admiration; see I your incomparable vertues.
I burne this Incense at their Altar: And I wish the world had more such Ladyes; the Church such ornaments; & painefull and peaceable Mi∣nisters such Patronesses, as your Ladiship hath beene to mee, who am
Yours addicted, in all respectfull obseruance, ELNATHAN PARR.
