So that your largesse be not to prodygall.

Sad Cyr. Lyberte to a lorde belongyth of ryght,

But wylfull waywardnesse muste walke out of the way;

Measure of your lustys must haue the ouersyght,

And not all the nygarde nor the chyncherde to play;

Let neuer negarshyp your noblenesse affray;

In your rewardys vse suche moderacyon

That nothynge be gyuen without consyderacyon. 2520

Per. To the increse of your honour then arme you with ryght,

And fumously adresse you with magnanymyte;
