The people awlesse, by weakenes of theyr head,[862]

Lead theyr liues lawlesse, hauing none to dread.[863]

And no lesse true is this text agayne,

Beata terra cuius rex est nobilis:

Blest is the land where a stout king doth rayne,

Where in good peace ech man possesseth his,

Where ill men feare to faut or doe amisse,

Where a stout prince is prest, with sworde[864] in hand,[865]

At home and abroad his[866] enemies to withstand.
