CAllophisus
,
being
brought
by
the
greatest
perfection
in
an
other
to
the
smallest
liberty
in
himselfe
,
hauing
the
foundation
of
his
choice
so
firme
as
it
cannot
decaye
,
and
finding
the
place
of
his
imprisonment
so
stronge
as
he
cannot
escape
:
wil
be
at
the
Tilts
ende
vpon
the
two
and
twentie
day
of
Ianuarie
next
ensewing
,
at
one
of
the
Clocke
in
the
afternoone
,
there
to
defend
and
mainetayne
against
all
men
whosoeuer
,
for
sixe
courses
a
peece
,
the
whole
sixe
,
or
any
of
the
sixe
Articles
which
follow
,
whereunto
he
challengeth
all
,
that
either
Honnor
any
Lady
,
whom
they
may
bragge
of
for
any
woorth
:
or
serue
a
Mistresse
,
which
hath
reason
to
boast
of
her selfe
for
any
beautie
,
by
these
first
three
Articles
.
-
1
The
fyrst
,
that
his
Mistresse
is
for
Beautie
of
her
face
,
and
the
Grace
of
her
person
,
the
moste
perfect
creature
,
that
euer
either
the
eye
of
man
hath
beheld
,
the
Arte
of
Nature
hath
framed
,
or
the
compasse
of
the
earth
hath
enioyed
.
-
2
The
second
,
that
it
is
as
impossible
for
any
other
whosoeuer
,
to
abide
the
beames
of
his
Mistresse
looke
,
as
for
the
Clowdes
to
endure
the
shining
and
appearing
of
the
Sunne
,
and
that
the
one
dooth
not
sooner
vanish
at
the
shewing
of
the
Sunne
,
then
the
other
will
sodenly
fade
at
the
presence
of
his
Mistresse
,
-
3
The
thirde
,
that
the
perfections
of
his
Mistresse
,
are
in
number
so
infynite
,
in
quality
so
excellent
,
and
in
operation
so
effectuall
,
as
she
by
the
helpe
of
them
,
and
they
by
the
direction
of
her
,
doo
make
more
men
without
liberty
,
and
more
bodyes
without
harts
,
then
any
,
or
all
the
women
in
the
world
besides
.
And
because
Callophisus
douteth
that
the
taking
vppon
him
a
quarell
which
is
so
iust
on
his
syde
,
will
make
that
he
shall
haue
none
to
defend
the
contrary
against
him
,
and
that
the
woorthynesse
of
his
mistresse
will
steale
away
the
Seruaunts
of
other
Ladyes
,
he
will
with
one
onely
assistaunt
,
challenge
all
that
either
haue
opinion
in
the
constancy
of
theyr
looue
,
or
assuraunce
in
the
greatnes
of
their
affection
,
by
these
other
three
Articles
.
-
4
The
fyrst
,
that
Callophisus
for
his
faith
will
yeelde
to
none
,
and
for
his
loyalty
dooth
thinke
himselfe
abooue
all
,
and
in
these
two
respects
pronounceth
himselfe
moste
woorthy
to
be
accepted
into
fauor
with
his
Mistresse
▪
or
to
receiue
grace
at
the
hands
of
the
fayrest
.
-
5
The
second
,
that
the
good
will
and
affection
of
Callophisus
to
his
Mistresse
,
is
for
impression
so
deepe
,
for
continuaunce
so
lasting
,
and
for
passion
so
extreame
,
as
it
is
impossible
for
any
other
to
carry
so
perfect
looue
,
or
to
conceaue
the
like
affection
.
-
6
The
thyrde
,
that
those
aduentures
and
hazards
,
which
cannot
but
be
moste
sower
,
to
any
other
for
the
pleasing
of
any
Lady
(
whom
they
Honour
)
are
moste
sweete
vnto
him
,
for
the
contentment
of
the
Mistresse
whom
he
serueth
.
And
if
they
neither
will
contend
with
him
for
the
superioritie
of
his
Mistresse
in
woorthynesse
,
nor
for
the
prerogatiue
of
himselfe
in
affection
,
hauing
not
theyr
iudgement
vayled
with
so
perciall
an
humor
as
may
leade
them
to
resist
of
manifest
and
open
trueth
,
and
doubting
a
bad
successe
in
a
wrong
opinion
,
because
Veritas
vincet
omnia
,
then
will
he
,
&
his
sayd
assistant
,
with
all
such
,
runne
sixe
courses
,
to
ioyne
with
them
in
honouring
of
his
Mistresse
,
which
hath
no
equall
,
and
expressing
of
his
affection
which
cannot
be
matched
.
WHereas
this
challenge
of
Justes
,
was
signifyed
by
way
of
deuise
before
her
Maiestie
,
on
Twelfe
night
last
past
,
to
haue
been
performed
the
fifteenth
daye
of
Ianuarie
,
her
Maiesties
pleasure
is
for
diuers
considerations
,
that
it
be
deferred
vntill
the
two
and
twenty
of
the
same
moneth
,
and
then
to
be
held
at
Westminster
,

accustomed
place
.
Proclaimed
