Dread Souerayne Goddesse, that doest highest sitIn seate of iudgement, in th'Almighties stead,And with magnificke might and wondrous witDoest to thy people righteous doome aread,That furthest Nations filles with awfull dread,Pardon the boldnesse of thy basest thrall,That dare discourse of so diuine a read,As thy great iustice praysed ouer all:The instrument whereof loe here thy Artegall.

The seuenth now after death and buriall done,Had charge the tender Orphans of the deadAnd widowes ayd, least they should be vndone:In face of iudgement he their right would plead,Ne ought the powre of mighty men did dreadIn their defence, nor would for gold or feeBe wonne their rightfull causes downe to tread:And when they stood in most necessitee,He did supply their want, and gaue them euer free.
