Apolloes Oracle.

If Brittaines King like valiant Hercules,
His Stables cleanse, and those Foxes footlesse,
Which Christian Vines destroy, do firret out;
His Prouinces shall rise without all doubt.
And brauely flourish by our Golden Fleece;
As Rome was, sau'd once by the noyse of Geese,
So he restraine some of these vagaries:
For Contraries are cur'd by Contraries.
