Edward the third. An. Dom. 1326.

In Peace, and warre, this King was right, & good,
He did reuenge his murdred Fathers blood:
Hee, and the blacke Prince, his most valiant Sonne,
The Field at Cressie, and at Poytiers wonne,
At first and last in his victorious raigne,
Of French and Scots, were six score thousand slaine.
And more, (his glory further to aduance)
He tooke the Kings of Scotland and of France.
The noble order of the Garter, he
At Windsor, instituted caus'd to be.
When fifty yeeres this Land had him obaid,
At Westminster he in his tombe was laid.
