Mogald, 23d King,
Rang the Yeer of Christ 113, fra the begining of the Kingdome 443, and Rang 36 Yeers.
A prince right stout, he studied to restoir,
And to the pristine Dignitie reduce;
What, LUCTAK leude, confouded haid befoir
And brought into, abhominable Abuse:
And then the Romans in a famous Fight,
He has defaited by his Martial Might.

BOT new-bred Vice his old-born Virtues banish'd,
And he to all Uncleannes did decline:
His vounted Vertues and his Valor Vanish'd,
And then profest all Filthines in Fin:
Yet such an End he suffered and receav'd,
As his Deserts were worthie of and crav'd.
