And then they set him on a molehill there,

And crownd the gratious Duke in high despite,

35 Who then with teares began to waile his fall.

The ruthlesse Queene perceiuing he did weepe,

Gaue him a handkercher to wipe his eies,

Dipt in the bloud of sweet young Rutland

By rough Clifford slaine: who weeping tooke it vp.

40 Then through his brest they thrust their bloudy swordes,

Who like a lambe fell at the butchers feete.

Then on the gates of Yorke they set his head,
