Traians death.

When twentie yeares had Traian rainde
in Romane Empire lo:

[136]

In Citie called Seleucia died,
from Persea comming fro.
Whose noble dayes and happy yeres,
while yet in Rome hee dwelt:
Both Rome and Romanes then reioycde,
no griefe in Rome was felt.
He rightly ruled Rome by lawe,
he Romane safegarde sought:
To punish vice and hate eche sinne,
Plutarchus him hath taught.
