[Brute farre by West/ouer the lande of Fraunce]

Brute farre by West/ouer the lande of Fraunce
An Ile in occeane there is/all closed with the see
This Ile wc Graūtz/whylom inhabyt by chaūce
Nowe beynge deserte/as apte for thy people left the
In this of thy body/kynges borne shal be
And of this Ile thou shalbe lorde and kynge
Serche this for here a perpetuell See to the
And here to thy childer/a new Troy shal sprynge.
