At first did bring me in my brother’s hate:
Yet in the end such fauour I did find,
That he to me, though I so most vnkind
Did oft times seeke the fall of his renowne,
Forgaue my fact, and gaue to me his crowne.

With free consent of all this kingdome’s peeres,
Aduanc’d I was to all the royalties
Of my late brother dead, and thrice three yeeres
Inthron’d I was, before my haplesse eies
