THE GOLDEN Garland of Princely pleasures and delicate Delights Wherein is conteined the Histories of many of the Kings Queenes Princes Lords Ladies Knights and Gentlewomen of his Kingdome Being most pleasant Songs and Sonnets to sundry new Tunes now most in vse The third time Imprinted enlarged and corrected by Rich. Iohnson Deuided into two Parts Printed at London by A. M. for Thomas Langley are to be sold at his Shop ouer against the Sarazens Head without Newgate 1620. A Lamentable Song of the death of King LEARE and his three DAVGHTERS To the tune of When flying Fame KIng Leare once ruled in this Land with princely power and peace And had all things with hearts content that might his ioyes encrease Amongst those guifts that nature gaue three daughters faire had he So princely séeming beautifull as fayrer could not be So on a time it pleasd the King a question thus to mooue Which of his daughters to his grace could shew the dearest loue For to my age you bring content quoth he then let me heare Which of you thrée in plighted troth the kindest will appeare To whom the eldest thus began deare father mine quoth she Before your face to doe you good my blood shall tendred be And for your sake my bleeding heart shall heere be cut in twaine Ere that I see your reuerent age the smallest griefe sustaine And so will I the second said deare father for your sake The worst of all extremities I le gently vndertake And serue your highnesse night and day with diligence and loue That sweet content and quietnesse discomforts may remoue In doing so you glad my soule the aged King replyed But what sayst thou my yongest Girle How is thy loue allyed My loue quoth yong Cordela then which to your grace I owe Shall be the duty of a childe and that is all I le shew And wilt thou shew no more quoth he then doth thy duty binde I well perceiue thy loue is small when as no more I finde Hence forth I banish thee my Court thou art no child of mine Nor any part of this my Realme by fauour shall be thine Thy elder sisters loues are more then well I can demand To whome I equally bestow my kingdome and my land My pompall state and all my goods that louingly I may With these thy sisters be maintaind vntill my dying day Thus flattering speeches won renowne by these two sisters here The third had ●anselesse banishment yet was her loue more deare For poore Cordela patiently went wandring vp and downe Unhelpt vnpittied gentle maid through many an English towne Untill at last in famous France she gentler fortunes found Though poore and bare yet was she dee●d the fairest on the ground Where when the King her vertues heard and his faire Lady séene With full consent of all his Court he made his wife and Quéene Her father old King Leare this while with his two daughters stayed Forgetfull of their promisd loues full soone the same denaide And liuing in Quéene Ragans Court the elder of the twaine She tooke from him his chiefest meanes and most of all his traine For whereas twenty men were wont to waite with bended knee She gaue allowance but to ten and after scarce to thrée Nay one she thought too much for him so tooke she all away In hope that in her Court good King he would no longer stay Am I rewarded thus quoth he in giuing all I haue Unto my children and to beg for what I lately gaue I le goe vnto my Gonorell my second child I know Will be more kinde and pittifull and will relieue my woe Full fast he hies then to her Court where when she heard his moane Returnd him answer that she grieude that all his meanes were gone But no way could relieue his wants yet if that he would stay Within her Kitchin he should haue what Scullions gaue away When he had heard with bitter teares he made his answer then In what I did let me be made example to all men I will returne againe quoth he vnto my Ragans Court She will not vse me thus I hope but in a kinder sort Where when he came shee gaue command to driue him thence away When he was well within her Court she said he could not stay Then backe againe to Gonorell the wofull King did hie That in her kitching he might haue what Scullion boyes set by But there of that he was denied which she had promis'd late For one refusing he should not come after to her gate Thus twixt his daughters for reliefe he wandred vp and downe Being glad to feed on beggers food that lately wore a Crowne And calling to remembrance then his yongest daughters words That said the duty of a childe had all that loue affords But doubting to repaire to her whom he had banisht so Grew franticke mad for in his minde he bore the wounds of woe Which made him rend his milk while locks and tresses from his head And all with blood bestame his cheekes with age and honour spred To hils and woods and watry founts he made his hourely moane Till hils and woods and sencelesse things did seeme to sigh and groane Euen thus possest with discontents he passed ore to France In hope from faire Cordela there to find some gentler chance Most vertuous dame where whē she heard of this her fathers griefe As duty bound she quickly sent him comfort and reliefe And by a traine of noble Peeres in brane and gallant sort She gaue in charge he should be brought to Aganippus Court Her royall King whose noble minde so freely gaue consent To muster vp his knights at armes to fame and courage bent And so to England came with speed to repossesse King Leare And driue his daughters from their throne● by his Cordela deare Where she true hearted noble Queene was in the battell slaine Yet he good King in his old dayes possest his crowne againe But when he heard Cordela dead who dyed indeed for loue Of her deare father in whose cause she did this battell mooue Heswounding fell vpon her brest from whence he neuer parted But on her bosome left his life that was so truely hearted The Lords and Nobles when they saw the end of these euents The other Sisters vnto death they doomed by consents And being dead their crownes were left vnto the next of kin Thus haue you heard the fall of ●ride and disobedient sinne FINIS A new Song of the wooing of Queene Katherine by a gallant yong Gentleman of Wales named Owen Tudor lately translated out of Welch into our English phrase To the tune o● Light in le●● Ladies Owen Tudor I Salute thée swéet Princesse with titles of grace For Cupid commands me in heart to embrace Thy honours thy vertues thy fauour and beauty With all my true seruice my loue and my duty Queene Katherine Courteous kind gentleman let me request How comes it that Cupid hath wounded thy brest
