Then with bloud guiltinesse[513] to heape offence,
And mortall vengeaunce ioyne to crime abhord?
O fly from wrath, fly, O my liefest Lord:
Sad be the sights, and bitter fruits of warre,
And thousand furies wait on wrathfull sword;
Ne ought the prayse of prowesse more doth marre,
Then fowle reuenging rage, and base contentious iarre.
But louely concord, and most sacred peace xxxi
Doth nourish vertue, and fast friendship breeds;
Weake she makes[514] strong, and strong thing does increace,
