To the Right Honourable, William, Lord Graye, Baron of Warke

With wisdom warify you so proceed,
Insuing which, a wary one indeed,
Likely you are to lim forth wary age ,
Like a true wise man, wisely to presage
Insuing evill, e're it be at hand,
And talting wary wisely to withstand,
Making in health a preparation well.

Griefe of hearts-eating sicknes to expell:
Rightly in life fitting your self to have,
As one day sure you must a death, a grave;
You thus in life 'gainst all events prepared,
Ever lim forth a wary age well carried.
