Right honour'd Peere, of Caries honour'd Stem,
Oby your vertues seek to honour them:
Bet is the honour that true vertue brings,
Ever then birth, though destini'd for Kings:
Rare is the wealth, and more enduring suer,
That vertue brings; that alwaies will endure.

Carry then vertues ore , a treasure Bee
Ah then the ore that is untryed yet!
Rightly this, though it hath in fire been tri'de,
In which a treasure true it did abide,
Ev'n Carry this bet ore , what e're betide.
