To the Right Honourable Henry Lord St. Char, Barond of Ravensheogh
Hy Saint in vertue and in admiration,
Ern still to be by vertuous inclination,
None that doe live but earnestly desire,
Right true nobility should so aspire.
You are a noble-man in Scotland true.
Such great reward though will to you insue,
Aiming at vertue, that your selfe shall be
Instald a Saint in truest dignity,
Nobler indeed you shall be then by farre,
Chosen then if you were an Emperour,
Then let the cry of all sorts you exhort,
Crying to you, you keep a holy port,
Let their loud acclamations to you crying,
Into heaven force you as you were in flying,
And so you earning an by Saint to be,
Rail'd shall be an by Saint triumphantly.
