All were they borne of her owne natiue slime,
Vntill that Brutus anciently deriu’d
From royall stocke of old Assaracs[768] line,
Driuen by fatall error, here arriu’d,
And them of their vniust possession depriu’d.
But ere he had established his throne, x
And spred his empire to the vtmost shore,
He fought great battels with his saluage fone;
In which he them defeated euermore,
And many Giants left on groning flore;
