Marius, 73.

In this Kings reigne the lawlesse proling Pict,
(A Nation strange) did the North part afflict:
But Marius, in a battell slew their King,
And all their power did to subiection bring.
The Picts from Scythia, into Scotland came,
Rude, barbarous, ingratefull, hard to tame:
For by the Scotsh Kings fauour hauing got
Possession, they oft warr'd vpon the Scot.
And more and more that Kingdome they annoy'd,
Till Kennith Scotlands King, them all destroy'd:
Yeeres fifty three reign'd Marius iust and wise,
Dyed: and at Carleile his Corps royall lies.
