And valiant Gloster showes himselfe their brother;

[Whose Mynes to the besieg’d more mischiefe doe],

Then with th’assaults aboue, the other two.

An olde man sitting by the fier side,

Decrepit with extreamity of Age,

Stilling his little Grand-childe when it cride,

Almost distracted with the Batteries rage:

Sometimes doth speake it faire, sometimes doth chide,

As thus he seekes its mourning to asswage,

By chance a Bullet doth the chimney hit,
