Cran.

Ah my good Lord of Winchester: I thanke you,

You are alwayes my good Friend, if your will passe,

I shall both finde your Lordship, Iudge and Iuror,

You are so mercifull. I see your end,

'Tis my vndoing. Loue and meekenesse, Lord

Become a Churchman, better then Ambition:

Win straying Soules with modesty againe,

Cast none away: That I shall cleere my selfe,

Lay all the weight ye can vpon my patience,

I make as little doubt as you doe conscience,

In doing dayly wrongs. I could say more,

But reuerence to your calling, makes me modest.
