Because my king did shame mee wrongfully,

I hated him and in deede[570] became his foe:

And while hee did at warre in Ireland lye,

I did conspire to turne his weale to woe:

And through the duke of Yorke and other moe,

All royall power from him wee quickely tooke,

And gaue the same to Henry Bolenbroke.

Neither did wee this onely[571] for this cause,

But to say truth, force draue vs to the same:
