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 Our wines that for our absence long did mourne Now find release from all their former woe Mate Maister good newes our Owner as I heare Is this day sworne in Londons Maioralty Boy Maister t is true for see what troupes appeare Of Cittizens to beare him company Harke how the Drums and Trumpets cheerely sound To solemnize the triumph of this day Shall we do nothing but be idle found On such a generall mirthfull Holyday Maister Take of our Pepper of our Cloues and Mace And liberally bestow them round about T is our ships luggage and in such a case I know our Owner meanes to beare vs out Then in his honor And that company Whose loue and bounty this day doth declare Hurle Boy hurle Mate And Gunner see you ply Your Ordinance and of fireworkes make no spare To adde the very vttermost we may To make this vp a cheerefull Holi-day FINIS The Lyon and the Camell ON the Lyon and Camell we doe figuratiuely personate Neptune and his Queene Amphitrita who first seated their sonne Albion in this land And 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 from time to time And as times haue altred former harshe inciuilities bringing the state to more perfect shape of Maiestie so as occasion serues do they likewise laye their borrowed formes aside and 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 drawe the whole frame shewing much enuy and contention whoe shall exceed most in duty and seruice The Pageant ON a Mount triangular as the Island of Britayne it selfe is described to bee we seate in the Supreame place vnder the shape of a fayre and beautifull Nymph Britania hir selfe accosted with Brutes deuided kingdoms in the like female representations Loegria Cambria and Albania Brytania speaking to Brute her Conqueror who is seated somwhat lower in the habite of an aduenturous warlike Troyan tels him that she had still continued her name of Albion but for his conquest of her virgine honour which since it was by heauen so appointed she reckons it to be the very best of her fortunes Brute shewes her what height of happinesse she hath attained vnto by his victorie being before a vast Wildernes inhabited by Giantes and a meere den of Monsters Goemagot and his barbarous brood being quite subdued his ciuill followers first taught her modest manners and the meanes how to raigne as an Imperial lady building his Troya noua by the riuer Thamesis and beautifieng his land with other Citties beside But then the three Virgin kingdomes seeme to reproue him for his ouermuch fond loue 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 our second Brute Royall king Iames is truely and rightfully descended by whose happye comming to the Crowne England Wales Scotland by the first Brute seuered and diuided is in our second Brute re-united and made one happy Britania again Peace and quietnesse bringing that to passe which warre nor any other meanes could attaine vnto For ioy of which sacred Vnion and combination Locrine Camber and Albanact figured there also in their antique estates deliuer vp theyr Crownes and Scepters applauding the day of this long-wisht coniunction and Troya-noua now London incites fair Thamesis and the riuers that bounded the seuered kingdoms personated in faire and beautifull Nymphs to sing Paeans and songs of tryumph in honor of our second Brute Royall King Iames Thamesis as Queene of all Britaines riuers begins the triumphal course of solemne reioysing Next her Sauerne that took her name of Sabrina begotten by Locrine on faire Elstrid and both mother and daughter were drowned in that riuer by Guendolenaes command the wife to Locrine dooth the like Lastly Humber whose name was deriued from Humber king of the Scythians who being pursued by Locrine and Camber in reuenge of theyr Brothers death was inforced to leap into that Ryuer and there drowned himselfe of whom I finde these verses written Dum fugit obstat ei flumen submergitur illic Deque suo tribuit nomine aquae What further may be required to expresse Britaniaes triumph more perfectly to the life with al the other personages her seruants and attendantes is more at large let downe in the seuerall speeches which I haue hereto annexed as most meet conuenient The speeches deliuered by the seuerall children according to their degrees of seating in the PAGEANT Britannia I that sometime was termed Albion After the name of Neptunes valiant Sonne Albion the Gyant and so had still held on But that my conquest first by thee begun Hath in fames Chronicle such honor woon That thy first setting from Albania Crownd me

Gyants keeping company With sauage monsters thus was Albion then Till I first furnisht thee with ciuill men Goentagot and all his barbarous brood When he was foyld by Corineus hand Were quite subdued and not one withstood My quiet prograce ouer all thy land But as sole Conqueror I did commaund And then from Albion did I change thy name To Brutes Britania still to hold the same Then built I my New Troy in memorie Of whence I came by Thanesis faire side And nature giuing me posterity Three worthy sonnes not

long before I died My kingdome to them three I did deuide And as in three parts I had set it downe Each namde his seat and each did weare a Crowne LOEGRIA But she whom thou hadst made one Monarchy To be so seuerd to thy sonnes might shew Some signe of loue to her small courtesie When three possesse what one did solie owe It makes more waies to harme then many know And so proou'd that deuision of the land It brought in warie that hellish fierbrand CAMBRIA The king of Hunnes entred Albania Slew Albanact thy Sonne and there bare sway Till Locrine rose with valiant Cambria And to reuendge their Brothers death made way Which instantly they did without delay And made that Riuer beare the proud kings name That thus intruded drownd him in the same ALBANIA Faire Elstrid taken in that fatall fight

man On whose faire birth our elder wits did scan Which Prophet-like seuenth Henry did forsee Of whose faire childe comes Britaines vnitie And what fierce war by no meanes could effect To re-vnite those sundred lands in one The hand of heauen did peacefully elect By mildest grace to seat on Britaines throne This second Brute then whom there else was none Wales England Scotland seuerd first by me To knit againe in blessed vnity For this Britannia tides in triumph thus For this these Sister-kingdomes now shake hands Brutes Troy now London lookes most amorous And stands on tiptoe telling
