Duncane I. 84th King,

Rang the Yeer of Christ 1034, fra the begining of the Kingdome 1364, and Rang 6 Yeers.

A knightlie King, whill he his Isles corrects,
The spightfull Danes, to spoill him of Empire:
Cam on his Coasts, and thairin boldlie Brecks,
And where they went, all waists with Force and Fire:
Bot soone thair Pride, he hes Represt, in Parte,
By his Activitie in Armes and Arte.
THE Sea, and Sands, the rest of Wrongs Reveng'de:
And maid his Raigne, from thair Irruptionnes frie:
From Forraigne Foes, his Countrie he hes Clengde,
Bot could not from Cognat Enemie,
Relieve his Life, that looked like a Friend:
Bot proovde a Foe, and Murdred him in End.
