Iohn.

If that the Dolphin there thy Princely sonne,

Can in this booke of beautie read, I loue:

Her Dowrie shall weigh equall with a Queene:

For Angiers, and faire Toraine Maine, Poyctiers,

And all that we vpon this side the Sea,

(Except this Cittie now by vs besiedg'd)

Finde liable to our Crowne and Dignitie,

Shall gild her bridall bed and make her rich

In titles, honors, and promotions,

As she in beautie, education, blood,

Holdes hand with any Princesse of the world.
