A rule there is not fayling, but most sure,
Kingdome no kin doth know, ne can indure.

For after my brother, the fift Henry,[713]
Wan by conquest the royall realme of Fraunce,
And of two kingdoms made one monarchy
Before his death, for better obaysaunce
To his yong sonne, not ripe to gouernaunce,
Protector of England I was by testament,
And Iohn my brother in Fraunce made regent.
