TO
THE QUEENES
MOST EXCELLENT
MAJESTIE.
Madame,
Nowing your Maiestie so much delighted with all the faire Flowers of a Garden,and furnished with them as farre beyond others, as you are eminent before them; this my Worke of a Garden, long before this intended to be published, and but now only finished, seemed as it were destined, to bee first offered into your Highnesse hands, as of right challenging the proprietie of Patronage from all others. Accept, I beseech your Maieftie, this speaking Garden, that may informe you in all the particulars of your store, as well as wants, when you cannot see any of them fresh upon the ground: and it shall further encourage him to accomplish the remainder; who, in praying that your Highnesse may enjoy the heavenly Paradise, after the many yeares fruition of this earthly, submitteth to be
| Your Majesties in all humble devotion, |
