And eke enrooted deepe must be that Tree,

Whose big embodied braunches shall not lin,

Till they to heauens hight forth stretched bee.

For from thy wombe a famous Progenie

Shall spring, out of the auncient Troian blood,

Which shall reuiue the sleeping memorie

Of those same antique Peres, the heauens brood,

Which Greeke[913] and Asian riuers stained with their blood.

Renowmed kings, and sacred Emperours, xxiii

Thy fruitfull Ofspring, shall from thee descend;
