Vpon the Kings Armes.

Three Lyons Passant (borne by former Kings)
Subdues the Harp , quarters the flowres of France ,
Fourth Lyon Rampant, equall honour brings,
Though hauing power to war, doth peace aduance,

69

Vnited in great Iames this Royall stile,
King of great Britaine, France, and Irelands Ile.
Thus Readers, hauing printed for your reading,
My birth, my rising, my estate, and breeding:
My Badge, my face, my Crosse, my Annagram,
How mighty in my great command I am,
Now will I tell some trauels I haue had,
Some (as I remember) I'le recite,
Should I name all, 'twere almost infinite.
 

Lyon of Scotland.

Ireland.

The Flower de lewce of France.
