To the Right Honourable, Edward, Earle of Dorset, Baron Buckhurst

Englands Heroick Peere, doe as you doe ,
Doubtlesse you so shall well rewarded go:
Within your selfe rewarded shall you be,
Attaining to spotlesse integrity.
Rarely rewarded with high dignities.
Doe your deserts amongst the Worthies rise,
Each seeing plainly you rewarded set .
Doe as you doe , and you rewarded bett
O noble Peere, when this life ends, shall be;
Rais'd to the joyes of Heavens eternity:
So you your selfe, men, and the Heavens likewise,
Each doe conspire, may you rewarded rise:
That you who follow in the path that's bett,
Thus doing good, may still rewarded sett .
