When king Henry[538] this victory had wonne,
Destroyde the Percyes, put theyr power to flight,
Hee did apoynt prince Henry, his eldest sonne,
With all his power to meete mee if hee might:
But I discomfyt, through my partner’s fight,
Had not the heart to meete him face to face,
But fled away, and hee pursued the chase.

Now, Baldwine, marke, for I, calde prince of Wales,
And made beleeue I should bee hee in deede,
