Yorke.

Shee‑Wolfe of France,

But worse then Wolues of France,

Whose Tongue more poysons then the Adders Tooth:

How ill‑beseeming is it in thy Sex,

To triumph like an Amazonian Trull,

Vpon their Woes, whom Fortune captiuates?

But that thy Face is Vizard‑like, vnchanging,

Made impudent with vse of euill deedes.

I would assay, prowd Queene, to make thee blush.

To tell thee whence thou cam'st, of whom deriu'd,

Were shame enough, to shame thee,

Wert thou not shamelesse.

Thy Father beares the type of King of Naples,

Of both the Sicils, and Ierusalem,

Yet not so wealthie as an English Yeoman.
