When princes lawes
Of lawes.
When princes lawes, w[ith] reuerend right, do keep [the] co[m]mons vnderAs meek as la[m]bes, thei do their charge, & scatter not asunder.
But if they raise their heades aloft, and lawe her brydle slake:
Then, like a tyger fell, they fare, and lust for law they take.
Where water dothe preuail, and fire, no mercy they expresse:
But yet the rage of that rude rout is much more mercilesse.
