Iniurious fortune hast thou crost me thus Thus in the morning of my victories Thus in the prime of my felicitie To cut me off by such hard ouerthrow Hadst thou no time thy rancor to declare But in the spring of all my dignities Hadst thou no place to spit thy venome out But on the person of yoong Albanact I that ere while did scare mine enemies And droue them almost to a shamefull flight I that ere while full lion-like did fare Amongst the dangers of the thick throngd pikes Must now depart most lamentably slaine By Humbers trecheries and fortunes spights Curst be their charms damned be her cursed charms That doth delude the waiward harts of men Of men that trust vnto her fickle wheele Which neuer leaueth turning vpside downe O gods O heauens allot me but the place Where I may finde her hatefull mansion I le passe the Alpes to watry Merae Where fierie Phoebus in his charriot The wheels wherof are dect with Emeraldes Cast such a heate yea such a scorching heate And spoileth Flora of her checquered grasse I le ouerrun the mountaine Caucasus Where fell Chimaera in her triple shape Rolleth hot flames from out her monstrous panch Scaring the beasts with issue of her gorge I le passe the frozen Zone where ysie flakes Stopping the passage of the fleeting shippes Do lie like mountaines in the congeald sea Where if I finde that hatefull house of hers I le pull the fickle wheele from out her hands And tie her selfe in euerlasting bands But all in vaine I breath these threatnings The day is lost the Hunnes are conquerors Deoon is slaine my men are done to death The currents swift swimme violently with blood And last O that this last night so long last My selfe with woundes past all recouery Must leaue my crowne for Humber to possesse Strum.
