To Lyons that French towne: where when I came

The king I met, then Philip call’d by name,

Who for this great affaire had vow’d to goe

With his support against the common foe.

29.

Our armies being ioyn’d, we marched on,

Where that strong bridge that ouerlookes the waue

Of Rhodanus, beneath our feet did grone,

And brake, where many, whom no helpe could saue,

In that blacke strugling streame did find their graue:
