The election was mislikte, and in short space,

Vitellius sought to vndermine my grace.

9.

In armes wee were, and hee mee batayle gaue,

First at Placentia, where I had the foyle;

Fro Bebriaque by force hee nexte mee draue,

There I not able farder to recoyle,

Dispayring quite, I wist to flye no way,

As Nero erst, with sword my selfe I slay:
