Sexta Pars Edgari.
[Ayder of the poore/and punyssher of trespasse]
Ayder of the poore/and punyssher of trespasseThe gyuer of worshyp/kyng Edgar is now gone
To ye kyngdom of heuē/which lyke to prayse was
As Salamon/that for wysdom/aboue all shone
A fader in peas/A lyon̄ to his foone
Founder of Temples/of monkz stronge patrone
Oppresser of all wronge/& of Iustyce guardone.
[Thou that syttest/in this Iudiciall place]
Thou that syttest/in this Iudiciall placeSytte vp ryght/and holde thyne handes from mede
Thyne erys from prayer/and fauoure from the chace
Let lawe be thy gyde/kepe Iustyce in thy rede
Thy Faders skynne/whiche doth thy chayer sprede
Haue in thy mynde/fall nat to lyke offence
Leste for thy faute/thou make lyke recompence.
