Edgare, 89th King,

Rang the Yeer of Christ 1098, fra the begining of the Kingdome 1428, and Rang 9 Years.

The schowting schrill of Trumpets sounds did ceass,
No Victor Hosts, the holie Holds profanes:
Thy Provinces, all by thy Panes, had Peace,
Thy Countrie quiet into Rest remanes:
Als loveing thow, thee to thy Subjects schoes,
As Formidable, and Fearfull to thy Foes.

57

THOW double Bands, with nighbour Kings concludes,
So Peace abroad, and thow at home Possesses:
Religion lieves, and in her Beawtie Budes,
And still abowe, all Credit it incresses:
The mightie Marss, great god of Warr gewes place,
To Thee the Parent, and the Prince of Peace.
