Such clang of arms and coursers prancing.

While, as at sounding shield the falchion rings,

Death, in his ebon car, drove fiercely round;

And Richard’s corse among the slain was found!

And Henry on that well fought day,

His worth and valour to repay,

Received a crown upborne on Victory’s wings.

Just at this scene young Glo’ster ’woke,

And begg’d, not relishing the joke,

His tutors would so civil be,
