honor aboue Greatnes prise And so being full of what she did conceiue Desires to be dismist and takes her leaue 75 Here Mary Pembrooke by whose generous brow And noble graces I 〈◊〉 These shapes of others virtues could I showe In what a desperat and confus'd estate She left this disappointed King and how Loue and Ambition in their glory sate And tyranniz'd on his diuided hart Warring each other with a powrefull part 76 How first Loue vnderneath his Colours brought The strength of all her gracefull worthinesse And sets them in th' aduantage of his thought Vpon the side of Youth and Wantonnesse Then how Ambition that for glory wrought Comes with his State his Crowne and Powrfulnes And plants her on the side of prouidence To beat vnfit Affections off from thence 77 But I must ouer-goe these passages And hasten-on my way to ouer-take Mine endes in sad and grauer businesses Wherof I shall to you relation make And yet my zeale here forc't mee thus t' expresse Elizabeth forour

so much stird the humors in those parts As marr'd the whole complexion of their hearts 82 The French King scornes such an indignity VVarwick disdaines imployment in this case The Queene inrag'd with extreame vehemency Stormes at her sisters and her owne disgrace The Lady Bona takes most tenderly To be so mockt with hope of such a Place And all blame Warwick and his fraud condem Whil'st he himself deceiu'd suffers with them 83 And could not by all meanes might be deuiz'd Vntaste them of this violent disgust But that they still held something lay disguis'd Vnder this treaty So that now he must

inueigh Against distemp'red kings who often are Ill warrants for their owne affaires and waigh Their lusts more then their dignity by far And what a miserie they haue that sway Their great designes what danger and what care And often must be forc't be'ing at their becks To crack their reputation or their necks 85 How their high fauours like as fig-trees are That growe vpon the sides of rocks

That Lady with her great alliances And haue the King more 〈◊〉 to his desire By managing of both their bus'nesses He by this Match thus made without his mean Comes barr'd from al those tying int'rests cleane 87 For well he knew that all his seruice past Was past and would not be a future tye To hold him in vnlesse that he could cast To introduce some neerenecessity Of his imployment that were like to last And shut-out all other concurrency Without which nor his Greatnes nor his Wits Could ward him from the Kings vnconstant fits 88 Which more perplext him and in neerer sort Then what France might by his ambassage ghesse Or England deeme But being arriu'd at Cort He drawes a Trauerse 'twixt his greeuances Lookes like the time his eye made not report Of what he felt within nor was he lesse Then vsually he was in euery part Wore a cleere face vpon a clowdy hart 89 Congratulates the Queene commends the King For his rare choice protesting her to be Far beyond all the world beside could bring To fit his liking and that he did see The Lady Bona was a peeuish thing Sullayne and proud and would in no degree Haue pleas'd his humor or in any sort Haue satisfi'd the Ladies of this Cort. 90 And after hauing finisht all the rite Of complement and interuisiting He humbly craues 〈◊〉 that he might Retyre a while t' attend the managing And setting of his country-bus'nesse right Whereby the

which at Corte in vaine Mentoyle-for and yet neuer doo attaine 92 Which his religious Confessor who best Could cast with what a violent accesse This seuer of Ambition did molest His still-sick minde takes hold-on to addresse Vpon th' aduantage of this little rest Some lenitiues t' allay the firynesse Of this disease which as a maladie Seiz'd in the Spirits hath seldom remedy 93 And thus sets on him See my Lord how heere Th' eternall Prouidence of God hath brought You to the Shore of safetie out of feare From all the waues of misery that wrought To ouer-whelm you and hath set you cleare Where you would bee with hauing which you sought Through all these hazards of distresse a King Of your owne making and establishing 94 And now my Lord I trust you will sit downe And rest you after all this passed thrall And be your selfe a Prince within your owne Without aduent'ring any more at all Your state in others Bottomes hauing knowne
