But tidings of my brother Rufus fall,

From Palestine to England me did call.

75.

That sword renownd with fall of Pagan foes

Now did brandish gainst my brother’s brest,

That sheeld, which did the Persian oft oppose

In skirmish in the field, was now addrest

Against my friends, to worke mine owne vnrest:

And all mine ensignes fam’d in forraine fight

At Winchester did waue in Henrie’s sight.
