and all her bande Doth heere resigne vnto thy worthie will Their worldly wit and all their learned skill Thy due desert hath thee Minerua made A goddesse great with whom none can compare For hee of heauen hath set it downe and said The Britttain Queene shal be that Phoenix rare Whom death to touch with dart shall neuer dare Thou shalt on earth eternally remaine As I haue done though greater be thy gaine Beholde these gods all readie to resigne The giftes for which they were eternized Receiue thou them because they be all thine Receiue also vnto thy heauenly head This Corronet this garlande
