Bish.

Good my Lord of Lancaster,

I am not here against your Fathers Peace:

But (as I told my Lord of Westmerland)

The Time (mis‑order'd) doth in common sence

Crowd vs, and crush vs, to this monstrous Forme,

To hold our safetie vp. I sent your Grace

The parcels, and particulars of our Griefe,

The which hath been with scorne shou'd from the Court:

Whereon this Hydra‑Sonne of Warre is borne,

Whose dangerous eyes may well be charm'd asleepe,

With graunt of our most iust and right desires;

And true Obedience, of this Madnesse cur'd,

Stoope tamely to the foot of Maiestie.
