To the most accomplisht Gentleman Master Michael Oulsworth.

NOr thinke that Thou in this my Booke art worst,
Because not plac't here with the midst, or first.
Since Fame that sides with these, or goes before
Those, that must live with Thee for evermore.
That Fame, and Fames rear'd Pillar, thou shalt see
In the next sheet Brave Man to follow Thee.
Fix on That Columne then, and never fall;
Held up by Fames eternall Pedestall.
