Merlin in this his Prophecies did vent,
Which through the world of fame bear such extent.
This spoak that Son of Mars, that Britain bold
Who first 'mongst Christian-Worthies is inroll'd:
This Brennus, who, to his desire and glut,
This Mistress of the world did prostitut.

To Rome, and would wear Diadem no more.

This New-year scarce wold serve me: So fare well▪
