To the Right Honourable, Collen, Earle of Seafort, Lord Kintaile
Charity now 'mongst men is grown so cold,
Of it to speak men many times are bold;
Lively, yet neretheles to Charactrize,
Love and to live thereby few men so wise;
Ensuing love and charity so well,
Nobly and perelike therein to excell.
Menn eccho zeale within their mouthes, but yet
A faire expression of it none can get,
Choise Peere, then I must praise you worthily:
Eternizing both zeale and charity,
Nobly expressed in your actions rife:
Zeale you do act unto the very life,
Expressing it by charity as chiefe.
