Hath great or glorious in mortall eye,[520]

Adornes the person of her Maiestie;

That men beholding so great excellence,

And rare perfection in mortalitie,

Do her adore with sacred reuerence,

As th’Idole of her makers great magnificence.

To her I homage and my seruice owe, xlii

In number of the noblest knights on ground,

Mongst whom on me she deigned to bestowe
