To the Right Honourable, John, Earle of Athole, Lord Read Gastle
In vertues path yon hurry on so well,
O honour'd Peere, that rarely you excell;
Hurried forward in zeales chariot still.
Now he that hurries with an ardent will,
Making direct steps unto vertue high,
Vertue will make him hurry presently;
Raysing him up in honour to transcend,
Rightly whose steps did so to vertue rend:
And you who hurried on in vertues way,
Yet higher still to honour hurry may .
O honour'd Peere, that rarely you excell;
Hurried forward in zeales chariot still.
Now he that hurries with an ardent will,
Making direct steps unto vertue high,
Vertue will make him hurry presently;
Raysing him up in honour to transcend,
Rightly whose steps did so to vertue rend:
And you who hurried on in vertues way,
Yet higher still to honour hurry may .
