King Pirrhus his death.

Here Pirrhus Prince of Epire lyes,
whose force Tarentum knew:
At Argos was by a woman slaine,
with a Tilestoone that shee threw.
Whom thousande Princes coulde not hurt,
nor Romanes all annoy:
Whom shot of Gunnes ne dreadfull dart,
might Pirrhus Prince destroy.
This seconde souldier counted was,
to Alexander King:
A sielie Argiue woman lo,
to graue did Pirrhus bring.
