both > [?to both: see next line]
suppressed > pressed down; _hence:_ laid low

6 Religious reverence does burial teem,

does burial > [burial does]
teem > produce, bear (as offspring); _hence:_ ?yield (this assumes

spelling, but assumes that "buriall teene" is a misprint for
"bury all teene" (teen = grief, woe))

whoso > whosoever
wants > lacks

9 As self to die bad, unburied bidden to been."

As self to die bad, unburied bidden to been > [To have died badly as
to be left unburied; "bide" (pa. ppl. "bidden") = "to remain in
some state or condition"]

The dead knights sword out of his sheath he drew,
