not_o evil_a do_v make_v they_o more_o laudable_a and_o right_o so_o our_o vulgar_a rhyme_a poesy_n be_v by_o good_a wit_n bring_v to_o that_o perfection_n we_o see_v be_v worthy_o to_o be_v prefer_v before_o any_o other_o manner_n of_o utterance_n in_o prose_n for_o such_o use_n and_o to_o such_o purpose_n as_o it_o be_v ordain_v and_o shall_v hereafter_o be_v set_v down_o more_o particular_o chap._n x._o the_o subject_n or_o matter_n of_o poesy_n have_v sufficient_o say_v of_o the_o dignity_n of_o poet_n and_o poesy_n now_o it_o be_v time_n to_o speak_v of_o the_o matter_n or_o subject_n of_o poesy_n which_o to_o my_o intent_n be_v what_o soever_o witty_a and_o delicate_a conceit_n of_o man_n meet_v or_o worthy_a to_o be_v put_v in_o write_a verse_n for_o any_o necessary_a use_n of_o the_o present_a time_n or_o good_a instruction_n of_o the_o posterity_n but_o the_o chief_a and_o principal_n be_v the_o laud_n honour_n &_o glory_n of_o the_o immortal_a god_n i_o speak_v now_o in_o phrase_n of_o the_o gentile_n second_o the_o worthy_a gest_n of_o noble_a prince_n the_o memorial_n and_o registry_n of_o all_o great_a fortune_n the_o praise_n of_o virtue_n &_o reproof_n of_o vice_n

thereof_o he_o take_v a_o surname_n as_o to_o be_v call_v a_o poet_n heroick_n lyric_a elegiac_a epigrammatist_n or_o otherwise_o such_o therefore_o as_o give_v themselves_o to_o write_v long_a
