To the Right Honourable, Patrick, Earle of Tillsbarne, Lord Murray

Parks area certain fenced part of ground,
A noble man for game with pales doth bound:
True Parks your hart, the which is bounded in,
Rightly by Gods law, which immures from sinne;
In Parks the beasts which in by pales are pent,
Choyce severall graces in you represent,
Kept close within your noble honour'd heart.

May (Deare Right noble Lord) this Park impart,
Vertues due honour nobly unto you,
Rightly, who do such heavenly game pursue,
Rightly indeed may those who see you hie,
According to your worth my tru Parkery ,
Your vertues each may joy in joyfully.
