I’m sure he’s a knight, or a king of crown,
Or I’m sure I am a far better fellow than he.’

‘I am neither a knight, nor a king of a crown,
But here, with my navy, on board I am come;
For I am Lord Essex, the Queen’s lieutenant,
Who never feard foe in all Christendom.’

Out and spoke the bold emperour’s son,
All as they were mounting and hyeing away;
