Corrupts the noble, and deceaues the wise,

Subdues the valiant: yea, the brother brings

To sell his brother’s blood for golden prize,

Wherewith to glut his greedie auarice:

No maruell then, if that my gold did bring

This fained oth in credit with the king.

Of Hardiknute this fauour I did finde,

I liu’d in grace and great felicitie,

To me the rule of all things hee resign’d,
