Dyde gyue vs example by good moralyte
To folowe the trace of trouth and ryght wysnes
Leuynge our synne and mortall wrechednes
By theyr wrytynge doth to vs appere
The famous actes of many a champyon
In the courte of fame renowned fayre and clere
And some endyted theyr entencyon
Cloked in coloure harde in construccyon
Specyally poetes vnder cloudy fygures
Couered the trouthe of all theyr scryptures
