Regum Ar╌ca╌na cano Henricus Lawes Regiae Majestatis à sacra Musica TO HIS Most Sacred Majestie CHARLES BY THE GRACE OF GOD King of great Brittaine France and Ireland Defender of the Faith c. I Could not answer mine owne Conscience most Gracious Soveraigne should I dedicate these Compositions to any but Your Majestie they were born and nourish'd in Your Majesties service and long since design'd such as they are an Offering to Your Royall hand Many of them were compos'd by my Brother William Lawes whose life and endeavours were devoted to Your service whereof I who knew his heart am a surviving witnesse and therein he persisted to that last minute when he fell a willing Sacrifice for Your Majestie I were unworthy such a Brother should I tender ought that is his or mine to any but our Gracious Master from whose Royall Bounty both of us receiv'd all we injoy'd and such an Inscription would not only seem a Theft and Alienation of what is Your Majesties but which I most abhorre would make me taste of these ungratefull dayes Your Majestie knowes when the Regall Prophet first penn'd these Psalmes he gave them to the Musitians to be set to tunes and they humbly brought them to David the King Besides Mr. Sandys inscribes his Translation to Your Sacred Majestie so that this I offer is Your Majesties in all capacities and doth not so properly come as rebound back to Your Majestie I was easily drawn to this presumption by Your Majesties known particular affection to David's Psalmes both because the Psalter is held by all Divines one of the most excellent parts of holy Scripture as also in regard much of Your Majesties present condition is lively described by King David's pen. The King of Heaven and Earth restore Your Majestie according to Your own righteous heart which is the daily earnest prayer of Your Majesties most humble most loyally devoted Subject and Servant HENRY LAWES To the READER THese following Compositions of mine and my Brothers set at severall times and upon severall Occasions having been often heard and well approv'd of chiefly by such as desire to joyne Musick with Devotion I have been much importuned to send to the Presse and should not easily have been perswaded to it now especially in these dissonant times but to doe a Right or at least to shew my Love to the Memory of my Brother unfortunately lost in these unnaturall Warres yet lyes in the Bed of Honour and expir'd in the Service and Defence of the King his Master Living he was generally known and for his Parts much honoured by Persons of best quality and condition To give a further Character of him I shall forbeare because of my neer relation and rather referre that to those Elegies which many of his noble Friends have written in a peculiar Book But as to what he hath done in Musick I shall desire the present and the future Age that so much of his Works as are here published may be received as the least part of what he hath compos'd and but a small Testimony of his greater Compositions too voluminous for the Presse which I the rather now mention lest being as they are disperst into private hands they may chance be hereafter lost for besides his Fancies of the Three Foure Five and Six Parts to the Viols and Organ he hath made above thirty severall sorts of Musick for Voices and Instruments Neither was there any Instrument then in use but he compos'd to it so aptly as if he had only studied that As for that which is my part in this Composition I had not thought at all though much urg'd to publish but that as they had their birth at the same time with his and are of the same kinde so they might enter both into the light together and accompany one another being so neere allied Mine taking precedence of order only not of worth I may be thought too partiall in what I have spoke of a Brother but here are folowing many of our Friends and Fellowes
