To the Right Honourable, William, Lord Powys Baron of Powys

With sparkling fervour, who the vertues see,
Innated (Sir) that doe remaine in thee,
Lively declaring your nobilitie,
Lustreth your vertues by your dignitie;
In which your vertues likewise act their part,
And luster forth your honour, honour'd heart,
Must needs confesse you Lim a Ruby right,

Having so pretious and true delight,
Ever on vertue the true Ruby rare,
Richly whereby your vertues dare compare,
Berokening a brave heart, that hath not mixed,
Extravagant vaine thoughts, but by death fixed.
Rubies , you know are precious, not a toy,
True Rubies Lim you then, such you enjoy.
