ON

THE COVNSAILE

Chamber.

f Men; Sonnes are the Crownes, of Citties Towres:
Of Pastures, Horse, are the most bewtious Flowres:
Of Seas, ships are the Grace; and Money still
With Traines, and Titles, doth the Family fill.
But Royall Counsailors; in Counsaile set,
Are Ornaments past All, as clearely great;
As Houses are that shining fires enfolde,
Superior farr, to Houses nak't and colde.
