Donald the III. 33d King,
Rang the Yeer of Christ 265, fra the begining of the Kingdome 595, and Rang 12 Yeers.
Most truculent and tirranouse the Time,
Before he rest and did usurpe the Regne,
Contaminate with manie cruell Crime,
And so unworthy to be call'd a King.
A Persecuter of the Prence before,
Did then the Peers and Plebeans devore.

HIS Mind still mus'de on Murder and Mischeef,
Ay fraught with Feare for many foul Offence,
Tormented for his Guiltiness with Greef,
And gnawing of a corrupt Conscience.
Whill CRATHALINT with an vindictive Hand,
From his Oppression did releive the Land.
