To the Right Honourable, James, Earle of Louthian, Lord Newbotill
In meeknes raies of splendor do appeare,
And a meek nobleman he shines most cleare:
Meeknes the greatest on the earth doth grace,
Encouraging the poore with smiling face.
Since then meek raies you do possesse great Earle,
Keep still those pretious Iewels, that rare pearle,
Excell with meeknes , and let a meek mind,
Raies of true meeknes alwaies to it joyne;
Ever averre that Louthians Earle is kind.
