The Battaile of Agincourt

by Michael Drayton

In many a Field that honour’d was of olde:)

And Hamshere next in the same Colours bore,

Three Lions Passant, th’ Armes of Beuis bould,

Who through the World so famous was of yore;

A siluer^e Tower, Dorsets Red Banner beares;

The Cornishmen two Wrestlers had for theirs.

^f As lying the fittest to expell or forwarne Inuasion.

^g Expressing the delicacy of the Bath, their chiefe Citty.

^h The Armes of the ancient Family of Clare Earle of Gloster borne by the City.

^a Stonidge being the first wonder of England, standing in Wiltshire.
