About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: TO THE WORSHIPFUL M. RICHARD SACKVILE, EDWARD SACKVILE, CICILIA SACKVILE, AND 4NNE SACKFILE, The hopeful Issues of the Hon. Gentleman, Master Robert Sackvile, Esq. Most lines do not the best conceit contain; Few words, well couch'd, may comprehend much matter Then, as to use thejirst is counted vain, So is t praise-worthy to conceit the latter; The gravest wits that most grave works expect, The quality, not quantity respect. The smallest spark will cast a burning heat; Base cottages may harbour things of worth: Then though this volume be, nor gay, nor great, Which under your protection I set forth, Do not with coy disdainful oversight Deny to read this well-meant orphan's mite. And since his father in his infancy Provided patrons to protect his heir; But now by Death's none-sparing cruelty Is turnd an orphan to the open air; I, his unworthy foster-sire, have dar'd To make you patronizer of this ward. You glorying issues of that glorious dame, Whose life is made the subject of death's will, To you succeeding hopes of mother's fame, I dedicate this fruit of Southwell's quill: He, for your uncle's comfort, first it writ, I, for your consolation, print and send you it. Then deign in kindness to accept the workt Which he in kindness writ, I send to you, The which till now clouded, obscure did lurk: But now opposed to each reader's view, May yield commodious fruit to every wight, That feels his conscience prick'd by Parcand's spight. But if in aught I have presumptuous been, My pardon-craving pen implores your favour; If any fault in print be past unseen, To let it pass the printer is the craver: So shall he thank you; and I, by duty bound, Pray that in you may all good gifts abound. Your worships' humbly devoted, ...
