41.

Thee, Norton, wi thine eight good sonnes,

They doomd to dye, alas! for ruth!

Thy reverend lockes thee could not save,

Nor them their faire and blooming youthe.

Wi them full many a gallant wight

They cruellye bereavd of life,

And many a childe made fatherlesse,

And widowed many a tender wife.
