Vnder the Ensigne of each seu'rall Shiere,
The Natiue Welch who no lesse honour ow'd
To their owne King, nor yet lesse valiant were,
In one strong Reg'ment had themselues bestow'd,

With three Arm'd Armes, in their proud Ensigne beare.

Seuerne beginneth to widden, as when Pirats haue come in to giue
warning to the other Maratyne Countries._]

Vpon whose top there sate a watchfull Cock,
