Puft vp in pride, so hawty then I grewe,

That none my peere I thought now could bee,

Disdayning such as were of high degree:

Thus dayly rising, and pulling other downe,

At last I shot how to win the crowne.

11.

And dayly deuising which was the best way

And meane, how I might my nephues both deuour:

I secretly then sent, without furder delay,

To Brackinbury, then lieutenaunt of the tower,
