A pregnant Prence and of a Stomak strong
With changing Chance, that oft unstabill stands:
Resisting Force, and in revenging Wrong,
Wnhappilie fell in rebellious Hands:
A Fortune far repugnant to the Merite,
Of his Heroick and his Princelie Sperite.

Of his Heroick and his Princelie Sperite.
NO Martial Might but Multitude of Men,
No honest Warrs, nor any Prowess plaine
O'recame this Knightly King: how and what then
Suppris'd unvarrs, not vanquished nor slain;
And yet how soone his owne Constraint he sees,
Subdu'd with Dolor he depairts and dies.
