To the Right Honourable, George, Lord Barkly, Baron of Barkly Castie
Great honour'd Peere, your worthines in sight
Ever doth breed the Muses great delight:
O then insue your wayes, in vertues path
Running, in which you make your allies laugh.
Greatly your greatness then by gifts advance,
In your true learning shew, that ignorance,
Vertues great Peere, cannot in you be found:
So Lurke by Gorgias learnedly profound.
By accurat wel-stiled declamations,
Accompani'd with learned grave Orations,
Rarely did Gorgias , the Philosopher,
Know how his learning wisely to prefer.
Lurke then by Gorgias , sith a noble man,
You best expresse the learned Muses can.
