[King Iohn his Crowne did to the Pope expose]
King Iohn his Crowne did to the Pope expose,Which, as you saw, poore Luther durst oppose.

Yet now is come Astreaes Golden Age.
A King of Denmarks Bloud Lawes out of ioynt,
As there in written Bookes here shall appoint.
None then shal wrest, as would K. Iames ordaine,
A secret Law hatcht in one Lawyers braine.
If he offend for Bribes, Fraud, or Delay,
Twere fit that Noblemen or Bishops may
Iudge him, where he shal not preuaile with gold,
With Friendship, quirks, Demurres, nor facing bold.
What differs it to see a Tyrant rule?
Or a rau'nous Iudge riding on his Mule?
A King may keepe his daring Foes in awe,
With lesser charge then men doe spend in Law.
