"And on his brest a bloodie crosse he bore,

The deare remembrance of his dying Lord,

For whose sweete sake that glorious badge he wore,

And dead, as living, ever him ador'd;

Upon his shield the like was also scor'd,

For soveraine hope, which in his helpe he had.

Right, faithfull, true he was in deede and word:

But of his cheere did seeme too solemne sad;

Yet nothing did he dread, but ever was ydrad."
