EDWARD THE IJ, KING OF ENGLAND, Lord Of Ireland, DVKE OF AQVITAINE, &c.
Soone after was my fathers corps inter'd,Whilst Fate and Fortune did on me attend:
And to the Royall Throne I was prefer'd,
With Aue Ceaser, euery knee did bend,
But all these fickle ioyes did fading end,
Peirce Gaueston to thee my loue combind:
My friendship to thee scarce left me a friend,
But made my Queene, Peeres, People, all vnkind,
I tortur'd, both in body and in mind,
Was vanquisht by the Scots at Bannocks Bourne,
And I enforc'd by flight some safety find,
Yet taken by my Wife at my returne,
A red-hot Spit my Bowels through did gore,
Such misery, no slaue endured more.
