TO THE RIGHT
Honorable, Chriſtopher Clethrowe,
Lord Maior of this Renowned
Metropolis, London.
Right Honourable,
IT is one of Eraſmus his undeniable
Apothegms, that there is no Citie
can bee ſo ſtrongly immur’d or De-
fenc’d but may bee either by Engins
defaced, by Enemies inuaded, or by
Treaſon ſurprized; but the Counſells and Decrees
of a wife Magiſtrate, are in-expugnable. Time, and
your Merit, have call’d you to this Office and Honor:
As all eyes are upon you, ſo all hearts are towards
you; never was any more freely voyc’t in his Election,
and therfore none more hopefull in expectation: your
Abilitie, what you can doe, is knowne; your purpoſe,
what you intend, you have amply delivered; onely
the Performance remaines: In which, there is no que-
ſtion, but that you will accommodate all your future
Proceedings to theſe three heads: Pro Rege, pro
Lege, pro Grege; for as you are a Magiſtrate, ſo
you are a Iudge: A calling, both of Truſt, and Trou

ture, are Perſons ordained by GOD, to examine
Cauſes diſcreetely; Heare both Parties Conſiderate-
ly, and Cenſure all matters unpartially: For Iuſtice
is the Badge of Vertue, the ſtaffe of Peace, and the
maintainance of Honor. Of Trouble; becauſe in
no part of your Time; during your regency, neither
in publicke, or private, forraine, or domeſtick things,
whether you meditate alone, or conuerſe with others,
you ſhall find the leaſt vacancie, which remembers me
of that which Dion witneſſeth of one Similis, who
living long in great Place and Authoritie under the
Emperour Adrian, after much intreaty, got leave to
retire himſelfe into the Countrey, where after ſeaven
contented yeeres expiring, hee cauſed this Epitaph to
be Inſculpt upon his tombe: Similis hic jacet, cujus
ætas multorum ſuit annorum. Septem tamen

cheth us, that it is moſt requiſite, in all ſuch as have
charge in Common Weale, under their Prince and
Governour, ſo to know the bownds of their Calling,
and underſtand the full effects of their dutie, that by
executing Iuſtice, they may be feared, and by ſherr-
ing Mercy, bee loved: I conclude all in this ſhort

I Shall not neede to borrow my In-
duction from the Antiquitie of this
Famous Metropolis, nor to enter in-
to a large diſcourſe, of the noble
Magiſtracy and government there-
of; being Arguments already gran-
ted, and therefore unneceſſary to be
diſputed: and yet I hold it not al-
together Impertinent to remember
ſome few things of remarke, which have happened in the
Prætorſhips of the Right Honourable, the Lord Maiors
of this Renowned Citie, who have beene Free of the Right
Worſhipfull Company of the Iron-mongers.

When all the reſt’s dull, that alone ſhines bright:

Of greater lustere made, to guide the leſſe:

To heighten theſe brave Triumphs of Renowne,
Seated in this mur’d Citadel, defenc’d

No Souldier, but his Poſture to the life,
Acting to’th Muſick of the Drum and Fyffe,
Some practiſing ſmall Bombards, ſome the great,

Could to a Campe, it ſelfe change in an houre:
Proceed in your brave Practiſe; whil’ſt I tell
Wherein your Iron and Steele doth moſt excell.
Without theſe Metalls, Nature could produce
Nothing that is conducefull to mans uſe:
The Plow, without the Coulter and the Share,
Could make no Furrowes, and thoſe Graines that are
Vpon them throwne, were loſt to them that ſowe them,
Without the Sickle, or the Sythe to mowe them:
The Gardeners Art, would ceaſe to be a trade,
If take from him the Matocke, and the Spade.
In Denns and Caves wee ſhould be forc’d to dwell,
Were there no Axes made, that Timber fell:
Nor on the Seas could wee have Shipps to ſayle,
Without the Sawe, the Hammer, and the Nayle:
Aske thoſe that take in Angling moſt delight,
Without baited Hooke no fiſh will bite.
The Iron Crowe turnes up the Indian mould,
Trenching the Earth untill they dig out Gold.
If with the Iron the Adamant ſhould contend,
There ſhould be no more Compaſſe, but an end

When the moſt curb’d, and playing with the bit,

There is no Art, Craft, Faculty, or Trade,
Without it, can ſubſiſt: our Sword is made
Of theſe mixt Metalls (Sir) Iuſtice would ceaſe,
