England that is pestered nowe choakt through want of grouÌ„d Shall finde a soile where roome inough and perfect doth abounde The Romains when the number of their people grewe so great As neither warres could waste nor Rome suffice them for a seate They led theÌ„ forth by swarming troupes to forraine lands amaine And founded diuers Colonies vnto the Romaine raigne Th'athenians vs'de the like deuise the Argiues thus haue doone And fierce A chilles Myrmidons when Troy was ouer runne But Rome nor Athens nor the rest were neuer pestered so As England where no roome remaines her dwellers to

The iorney is but easie to bee gonne The frozen Pole disioyned farre dooth lye VVe shape our course farre from the burning Zonne The soile is subiect to a milder skye And by proofe of many recordes tride The Paradise of all the world beside Then launch ye noble youthes into the maine No lurking perrils lye amidde the way Your trauell shall retourne you treble gaine and make your names renoumed another day For valiaunt mindes through twentie Seas will roome And fish for lucke while sluggardes lye at home Richard Bingham â§ Maister Captaine Frobisher in commendation of the voyage A Pleasaunt
