The love I dedicate to your lordship is without end: whereof this pamphlet, without beginning is but a superfluous moiety.The warrant Ihave of your honourable disposition, not the worth of my untutored lines, make it assured of acceptance.What I have done is yours;what I have to do is yours; being part in all I have, devoted yours.
Were my worth greater, my duty would show greater; meantime, as it is, it is bound to your lordship, to whom I wish long life still lengthened with all happiness.
Your lordship's in all duty, William Shakespeare
