‘Thorow the towne of Fortune wee did him bring,

And soe convayd him to Shrewsburye,

And soe crowned him a noble king;

And Richard that day wee deemed to dye.’

33

Our prince was greatlye moued at that worde,

And returned him hastilye againe;

To comfort the erle came on the other hande

The doughtye Edward, Duk of Buckingam.
