O Virgin Queene, the rarest gem,

Thou mayst enioy thy place.

[Jn Countryes cause, I mount vpon the Seas]

[Zelauto.]
Jn Countryes cause, I mount vpon the Seas,
with shiuering shot to daunt my furious foe:
Jt dooth me good all strife for to appease,
to keepe my Land free from all forrain woe.
God saue my Prince, that keepes a Nauy huge:
Jn time of neede to stand for her refuge.
