Donald Bane VII. 87th King,

Rang the Yeer of Christ 1093, fra the beginning of the Kingdome 1423, and Rang 1 Yeer.

The King by Treason, and a Trick distroyed,
The State of new disconsolat is Crost:
King Duncanes Son, this Donald cumes, convoyed,
And with the helpe, of his Norvegeane Host:
Vpon the Princelie Honors layes his hands,
And Crounde, the Kingdome, Cruellie commands.
BOT Violence and Wrong a Varrand wants,
For what he haid, vsurped bot of late:
More puissant Powre, perverteth and supplants,
And reft his Life, his Honor and Estate:
Ill satled Bases, thus are brascht and schakin,
And Tirranes ar, be greater strength oretakin.
