Lord Marquesse and lord Grey, then standing by,

Objecting gainst them both, that prickt with pride

They sought the realme and me, yet yong, to guide;

And with our vncle Riuers, thought to bring

The noble peeres in hatred with the king.

23.

Without respect vnto our princely state,

With violent hands they beare them both away,

Too weake were we of power t’auert that fate,

Which in our sight did threaten their decay,
