Eduard Baleoll, 99th King,

Rang the Yeer of Christ 1332, fra the begining of the Kingdome 1662, and Rang 40 Yeers.

By Forrane Force, and by a banishd Band,
Thy State vsurped, and thy Standing stood:
Wnhappie Prince, thow with a Hostill hand,
Bereft the Raigne due to the Bruces Blood:
Thy bloodie Blade, nor Peer nor Plebane spairs,
As Bervicks Fight, and Dupline Field declairs.
THE Kingdom frie, (thow Traittor) did Betray,
And swore thy selfe, a Slave with thy consent:
Thow maide thy Countrie, to thy Pride a Pray,
A Tigre-harted-Tirrane to content:
Bot all for nought, thy Fathers Fate, thow fand,
Disgras'de, Exilde, thow lost, and left the Land.
