To my beloued right well deseruing friend Mr. Iohn Speed.

Sith thou art Speed, and my good friend withall.
 With speed Ile tell thee thou art prodigall
Of thy good guifts; and giust them still for nought
But for meere fame, which comes where least it's sought
 But thou deseru'st a farre more worthie fee;
 In part of paiment then take these of mee.
