Mowbray for aye ten yeares must Harford part Griefe galles the one and kills the others hart The gallant Courser in the listed race Dismounts the Ryder scornes his curbing raine Stamping with ioy his freedome doth embrace And doth his pristine seruitude disdaine Leauing his Ryder breathlesse on the plaine So raging Burdeux tumbles downe his kinne And runnes from sin to vice from vice to sinne In his Imperiall Pallace Pleasures Bowre Romes mightie Monster did himself repose Sacking Cytheress for t faire Venus Towre The raging multitude their wrath disclose For his Praetorian guard they did insclose Chaerea did split his hart oh happie thing T' was good he dide t was bad to kill a King So Honors spurre did pricke the Percies blood To tumble Richard from his bloudie Throne Wishing great Herford to transpasse the flood To come and sit on Iocobs sacred stone Where he might raigne as King and rule alone As Claudius rose so Herford came to raigne As Nero fell so Edwards sonne was slaine Now Gaunts great issue in his Throne is set Whose sacred Science this my Muse should tell For Margarets sake that sprang from Sommerset For her it should if Cambria did not tell For lawes vnheard this Monarch did excell Who gaue him wings to mount he threw to ground Claudius who ran so faire is Claudus found In Silence vault my Muse shall hide his fame Who dide the Grey goose wings with purple red Praise he deseru'd though he deserued blame Sertorius like his warlike troopes he led For by alluring hope they both were fed Had men and Fortune equaliz'd his minde His Conquests Seuernes neuer had confinde Victorious Hotspurre and his valiant sire The kings great Steward Wosters reuerent Lord With neuer daunted Dowglas doe conspire Whose endles praise our Annales doe record With these doe Glendowre ioyne and Wigmors Lord To pull the Scepter from the tyrantes hand And giue it him that should by right command Dowglas and Hotspurre peerlesse for their might Are ouermatcht by Henries matchlesse sonne Who like a lyon rows'd him in the fight Glendowre himselfe is by himselfe vndone Northumberland is sicke and cannot come Like to a Tyger in his eager chase Great Monmouthes praise doth run from place to place Tumults appeas'd and armor set aside The stately Cirty of the highest God Diuine Ierusalem Iehouas bride Being whipt with warre and famines pinching rod Implores the helpe of this all-conquering Lord His soule defilde with sinne by merits sought That to redeeme which Iesus blood had bought His royall Nauy like a sea of wood Attends his princely presence in the bay But see how meager death still enuying good With fatall stroake his enterprise doth stay The Caedar falles in time so Kings decay Why stay you shippes he treades the sacred path Ierusalem his soule and body hath Henry the fift his lyfe and death AVaunt proud Rome and bragge not of thy men Nor thy aetheriall Caesars warres declare Cease peerlesse Plutarch with thy sacred pen The worlds Archmonarches aptly to compare Reason doth vrge and this alledge I dare That Englands Homer portraid hath his warre Which doth excell the worthiest Caesars starre What telst thou me of famous Hasdruball Of Cannas chance and Varros ouerthrow Aemisius death and conquering Hanniball Of Syllas Legions and a Parthian bowe Of Titus valure Catos wrinckled browe Of Syracuse and strong Namantias wall Or Phillip Persia Iugurth Iubas fall Of Noble Drusus and proud Saturnine Of Scipios death and Gracchus infamy Of Marius trophies and sterne Cataline How Caesar vanquisht France and Germany And twise returnd as foild from Britany The world admir d their victories to see Yet none of these must be comparde with thee Let Athens praise the lawes which Solon gaue And Marathon extoll Miltiades Write Caria of Mansolus stately graue And let Cycilia wish Demosthenes But Salamina praise Themistocles Greece did admire their tryumphes for to see Yet all of these cannot comparewith thee Let Sparta now conceale Lycurgus fame And Lacedaemon hide Lysanders praise Cease Argos now to shew th'Olimpicke game Let silence cloud or maske those golden dayes When Epires Monarch acted Tragicke playes But what of him or what are these to thee For thou alone doest farre exceed those three Though Alexander wan Darius Crowne And forc't the Easterne Emperour leaue his tent Burning Persopolis that regall Towne Seeing thy valure freely giues consent That two bright sonnes should rule the Element With thee great Prince we aptly may compare Rich Europes Paragon and Phaenix rare Thou didst not want Parmenios aiding hand Nor valiant Perdicas aspiring minde Which might Alansons quarels fierce withstand As long as Langlies gallant issued minde Had faithfull Suffolkes loue to him combinde They wan they lost they liue though they are dead They liue in heauen and dide in Conquests bed France did ten yeares withstand the Romanes might Both parties oft with equall courage plaide Yet that before the Sun shewd twice his light Madst great Mompensier flye as all dismaide To see thy kingly Banner forth displaide Like to Crassinius Yorke the yaward led True valure is by hope of honor bred Henry two Diadames doth now combine Europes faire daughters eldest sisters twaine By marriage of a maide a Mimph diuine Whilst Lewis liues as Emperour he mustraigne Henry as heire apparant doth remayne When Katherin is betrothd his

shadowed her white vermilion face Like Vulcans chayne did Venus champion hold VVho triumphed erewhile now sues for grace Vndecent action for a Captaines place Thy eyes are now bewitcht with eyes diuine Thy heart consents to honor Katherine If I had Zeuxes at to paint thy lookes Did I enioy Maeonian Homers quill To pourtraiture thy praise in golden bookes Thy vertues rare would aequalize my skill Thy sacred paps sweete Nectar did distill Hadst not thou bene our eyes should neuer view Our present peace and pleasures to ensue Stay ranging Muse thy wandring course restraine When ioues all-seeing eyes did view this King He sent his Harauld to that spatious plaine Where the three fatall Sisters then did spinne To know when Henries life did first beginne And if his thred were not already spunne That Lachesis should make it quickly runne His wisest sonne did place his golden wings Holding a siluer rodde all-charming wand VVherewith he could inchant all mortal things VVith this attire he claue the aetheriall land Where loue and luno doth the Gods command When that he came vnto the appointed place He told his message with a comely grace Sisters quoth he for so they were
