To his worthy Captaine the Author.
THat which wee call the subiect of all Storie,
Is Truth, which in this Worke of thine giues glorie
To all that thou hast done. Then, scorne the spight
Of Enuie; which doth no mans merits right.
My sword may helpe the rest: my Pen no more
Can doe, but this; I’aue said enough before.
