To the Right Honourable, Robert, Earle of London Derry

Rose , a bet wary guide , your worthinesse,
O better well you doe your selfe expresse,
Better than ancient times, because you shew
Exactly, vertues pourtray to the view.
Rose a bet guider ; guide himselfe who can,
Truely he's fit to guide another man:
Vertue hath taught you so the raines to beare,
Shewing what passions most we ought to feare.

Rose a bett wary guider , when you rose ,
In whom true warinesse you well disclose,
Declaring that you, as a guider rare,
Guiding still warily , your selfe declare:
Evermore wary guider still more bett ,
With rashnesse never any thing we get,
Ah then insue you grace, which wary maketh,
Yeelding forth vertue, who so not forsaketh,
E'ne a bet wary guide the world him taketh.
