originall So that neither Hengist nor anye Qu. named Angla or deriuation ab Angulo is to be allowed before this sounde and sure authoritye Thus much briefely concerning the names of our Countrey now come wee to discourse the whole frame and body of our deuise in this solemne triumph of re-vnited Brytannia The Shippe called the Royall EXCHANGE Maister All hayle faire London to behold thy Towers After our voyage long and dangerous Is Seamens comfort thankes vnto those powers That in all perils haue preserued vs Our Royall Exchange hath made a rich returne Laden with Spices Silkes and Indico

in them we figure Poetically that as they then triumphed in their sonnes happy fortune so now they cannot chuse but do the like seeing what happy successe hath thereon ensued to renowne this Countrey

speak according to the nature of the present busines in hand without any imputation of grosnesse or error considering the lawes of Poesie grants such allowance and libertye Corineus and Goemagot appearing in the shape and proportion of huge Giants for the more grace beauty of the show we place as guides to Britaniaes mount and being fetterd vnto it in chaines of golde they seeme as it were to

to his sons and deuiding her who was one sole Monarchy into three seueral estates the hurt and inconuenience whereon ensuing each one of them modestly deliuered vnto him He staies their further progres in reproofe by his and their now present reuyued condition beeing raised againe by the powerfull vertue of Poesie after such length of time to behold Britaniaes former Felicity againe and that the same Albania where Humber slew his son Albanact had bred a second Brute by the blessed mariage of Margaret eldest daughter to king Henrie the seauenth to Iames the fourth king of Scotland of whom
