CHAPTER II.
The secund chapiter tellis how þis

In sevin bukis devidit is.
Be þe [eldis] I will devise
In sevin bukis þis tretise;
Bot I will nocht ay þare mak end,
Quhare storyis makis þe [eldis] kend.
The first buke fra þe begynnyng
Sall trete till þat Nynus king
Off Babilone in Assyry
Gouernyt þat lordschip halely;
And þat wes in till Abrahamys dais,
As þarof þe storyis sayis.
The secund buke sall trete fra þan
Till Brutus come in Mare Brettane;
That wes, as can þe story tell,
Quhen iugis iugit Israell.
The thrid buke sall contenit be
Till of Rome wer maid þe cete;
That wes quhen that Achaȝ king
Israell had in gouernyng,
And þe proffeit Ysaye
Maid and prechit his prophesye.
The [ferd] buke quhill þat Crist wes borne
To saif mankynd þat wes forlorne.
The fift quhill þat þe Scottis
Put out of Scotland þe Pictis.
The sext quhill Malcolme oure first king
Scotland tuke in gouernyng.
The sevint sall mak conclusioun
Off þe nobill generatioun
And of þe blessit gud lynnage
That come of þe mariage
Off Malcolme king of Scotland
And Mergret aire till Yngland.
