My seruants eke at Antioch Niger slay:

[At Lyons siege they tooke Albinus head away.]

3.

Then was my seate, me thought, assurde to bide,

There could no tempest teare my sayles adowne:

No showre could cause my fixed foote to slide,

Nor vnder creeper crooke[1058] from me the Crowne

Which had the guyde of all Europae’s [wealth and] might,

He, needed not to feare the force of fight,

[Nor yet the ire of any worldly wight.]
