DOCTISSIMO AMICO SVO CAROLO ALEINO de nobili hoc Poemate.
SI quid victrices debebunt vatibus vmbrae, Aevum mortali si dare musa potest, Et decus aeternum praestare, hos doctus honores Praestitit Alleinus, Rex, Edovarde, tibi, Gallorum domitor, tibique inuictissime Princeps, Cujus adhuc nomen saecula nostra colunt. Felices animae, laudes agnoscite vestras, Carmina{que} eximios dignae sonare duces. Maesta suas iterum lugebit Gallia clades, Damna{que} per calamum iam renovata tuum Sentiet infelix, lugubria praelia damnans, Tempora{que} Anglorum cum pharetrata cohrrs Rumperet hostiles horrenda strage catervas, Galla{que} Gallorum luxuriaret humus Sanguine pinguescens, quae ne damnare tenebris Saecula, vel possit perdere livor edax; Hos patriae reddit meritos Alleinus honores, Nec patitur regum fortia facta mori.Thomas May.
