And secondly, ryght well you dyd endyte

Of the worthy actes of many a conquerour;

Through whych labour that you dyd so wryte

Unto this day reygneth the honour

Of every noble and myghty warriour,

And for your labour and your busy payne

Your fame yet lyveth, and shall endure certayne.

And eke to prayse you we are gretely bounde,

Because our connyng from you so procedeth,

For you therof were fyrst originall ground,
