For if Iehoua did his purpose dint,

How much will hee the factours punish more:

Let noble men from such endeuours stint,

And loue embrace where hatred was before:

Iehouae’s ioyfull impes embrace this lore:

For Porrex here can tell, they may bee sure,

No murder stable kingdome can procure.

How King Porrex[533] which slewe his brother was slayne by his owne mother and hir maydens, about the yeare before Christ, 491.
