Shall come to tempt the King concerning his offence,

Fifteen Soldiers the most part Countrey men,

The last shall be his life, and the best part of his Estate.

This signifieth that a great man having committed an offence against the King, shall come to him in a mean habit, to sue for his Pardon, and shall be carried away by fifteen Souldiers, the most part Countrey fellows; and in conclusion he shall have his life saved, and the best part of his Estate.
