THE COURTIERS LIFE. In court to serue decked with freshe aray, OF DISAPPOINTED PURPOSE BY NEGLIGENCE. Or Carthage he that worthy warriour, Could ouercome, but could not use his chance; The sharpe conquest though fortune did advance, I vnpossesse, so hangeth now in balance Of warre, my peace, rewarde of all my payne, At Mountzon thus I restless rest in Spaine. OF HIS RETURNE FROM SPAINE. TAGUS farewell, that westward with thy stremes, My king, my countrey I seke, for whom I live, OF SODAINE TRUSTING. DRIUEN by desire I did this dede, That who so trusteth ere he know, OF THE MOTHER THAT EATE HER CHILD AT THE SIEGE OF IERUSALEM. IN doutfull brest whiles motherly pity, Return thy blood where thou hadst milke of late. To another must I make sepulture. |
