As if it had been at London.

And they shot for twentie poundes a bowe,

Besides great cheere they did bestowe,

I never sawe a gallanter showe,

Except I had been at London.

Yorke, Yorke, &c.

These matches you shall understande,

The earle of Essex took in hande,

Against the good earle of Cumberlande,

As if it had been at London.
