This man of infinite remembrance was,
2 And things foregone through many ages held,
Which he recorded still, as they did pas,
4 Ne suffred them to perish through long eld,
As all things else, the which this world doth weld,
6 But laid them vp in his immortall scrine,
Where they for euer incorrupted dweld:
8 The warres he well remembred of king Nine,
Of old Assaracus, and Inachus diuine.
