Eu'ne in his praise thy proper worth to sing
For lyke as he did re-erect his croun
By Longeshankd Edwards subtiltie brought doun.

Right so (thy song) from darke obliuions graue
Hath now restoird the glorie of his name
Ingrauing it vpon this column braue
Which thow has sacred to eternall fame
And placed heir till time begone to shine
As monument of his heigh worth, and thine.
