Whose loftie surge is[1321] like the battelments

That compast high built Babell in with towers,—

Welcome, my lords, welcome, brave westerne kings, 5

To Englands shore, whose promontorie cleeves

Shewes Albion is another little world:

Welcome says English Henrie to you all;

Chiefly unto the lovely Eleanour,

Who darde for Edwards sake cut through the seas, 10

And venture as Agenors damsell through the deepe,[1322]

To get the love of Henries wanton sonne.
