Edward the sixt. An. Dom. 1546.
Had this Kings reigne bin long, as it was good,Religion in a peaceable state had stood,
What might haue his age bin, when his blest youth,
So valiantly aduanc'd Gods sacred truth?
At nine yeeres age, the Crowne on him hee tooke,
And ere sixteene, he Crowne and life forsooke.
Too good for earth, th'Almighty tooke his spirit,
And Westminster his Carkas doth inherit.
