Dire death and shame, to worke Elizae’s woe.
80.
Anno Reg. 26.
First furious Sommeruile, that posting came
With his owne hands to act his soueraigne’s death,
Preuented in the way, to shun such shame
As might ensue, did stop his owne deare breath,
Thinking the same a far more glorious death;
But simple man with far more shame thereby,
Thy trembling ghost vnto the dead did flie.
