TO THE RIGHT WORSHIPFVLL , AND MY MVCH respected good friend , Sir WILLIAM OWEN , Knight , &c. SIR :

ALL the Arts and Sciences which we know , and vse at this day , are come to the ripenesse and flourishing in which they are , by the encouragement that Noble Spirits haue from time to time afforded vnto such , as haue by nature or education been inclined to the speciall study and profession of them ; It cannot be denied , but there be too few ( of rancke and qualitie ) which are pleased to cast a louing , and a gracious eye vpon Arts , and Artists , and loue Arts for the Arts themselues ; yet the world , neither in this Kingdome , nor abroad , is as yet so farre degenerated , but it daily yeeldes some supply of such worthy persons as are delighted in some liberall Science , or other ; And whilst they please themselues , grace , and confirme the good endeauours of others . In which number your selfe ( especially of your place and quality ) are one of the chiefe , that euer I knew , both for skill , and loue of this poore , though diuine Science , whereof I am a Professour . Indeede this , and all other Arts haue no enemies , but such as know them not ; such as know them , can no more choose but loue them , then their owne eyes , or the light . But for your selfe , it is hard for me to say , whether your skill in this Art , among many other , hath made you loue it so much , or your loue of it made you so skilfull in it : Onely this I am sure of , that when I began to bethinke with my selfe to whom to Dedicate these Songs , I could finde none , to whom they might come more welcome then your selfe ; none who was like to entertaine them more willingly , could vnderstand them better , or make more true vse of them . Yours therefore they shall be hereafter , they shall call you Patron , and vnder your protection come abroad , if you will be pleas'd ( whereof I assure my selfe ) to doe him so much honour to accept of them , which so much honours you , and will alwayes rest at your command
