What careful Nurse can with more love and diligence suckle and bring up her nursling than Honour the Arts The dew doth not so fecundate the grasse nor Favonius so favour the flowers as Honour the Arts.

Allegoria The Arts grow under the drippings of Honour's tree The fountains and the springs do not so irrigate and moysten the earth that it may be fruitful as honour the Arts. The rain doth not so with timely showers ripen the Corn as Honour the Arts. The Sun by his cherishing-heat doth not so enliven and amplify all things as honour by her fructifying beams doth encrease and augment the Arts.
