Sonnet 10: To The Lady Margaret Ley

Daughter to that good Earl, once President
  Of Englands Counsel, and her Treasury,
  Who liv’d in both, unstain’d with gold or fee,
  And left them both, more in himself content,
Till the sad breaking of that Parlament
  Broke him, as that dishonest victory
  At Chaeronea, fatal to liberty
  Kil’d with report that Old man eloquent,
Though later born, then to have known the dayes
  Wherin your Father flourisht, yet by you                           
  Madam, me thinks I see him living yet;
So well your words his noble vertues praise,
  That all both judge you to relate them true,
  And to possess them, Honour’d Margaret.
