Text Appearing Before Image:
tch my sonne, or rend his tender hand ?So diversly themselves in vaine they fray;TMiiles some more bold to measure him nigh stand,To prove how many acres he did spred of land. Thus flocked all the folke him rownd about; The whiles that hoarie king, with all his traine, Being arrived where that champion stout After his foes defeasaunce did remaine. Him goodly greetes, and fayre does entertayne AYitli princely gifts of yvory and gold. And thousand thankes him yeeldes for all his paine. Then when his daughter deare he does behold. Her dearely doth imbrace, and kisseth manifold. And after to his pallace he them bringes. With shaumes, and trompets, and with clarions sweet; And all the way the ioyous people singes. And with their garments strowes the paved street; Whence mounting up, they fynd purveyaunce meet Of all, that royali princes court became; And all the floore was underneath their feet Bespredd with costly scarlott of great name. On which they lowly sitt, and httLng purpose frame.

My narrow leaves cannot in them contayne The large discourse of roiall princes state. Yet was their manner then but bare and playne ; For th antique world excesse and pryde did hate Such proud luxurious pompe is swollen up but late. Then, vdien with meates and drinkes of every kinde Their fervent appetite they quenched had, That auncient lord gan fit occasion finde, Of straunge adventures, and of perils sad Which in his travell him befallen had. For to demaund of his renowmed guest: Who then with uttranee grave, and countnance sad. From poynt to poynt, as is before exprest, Discourst his voyage long, according his request. Great ple
