A KNowe ye who's lately dead & gone, And shortly must in grave be laid? These Bells of Hell shal make it knowne With thundring noise: it shal be said And certified, that NETHERLAND Her 12 yeares TRUCE hath laid in sand. B This TRUCE the friend of Triple Crowne Her life she lost in Aprill last, Her Buriall now must be made knowne To all her Friends, that they in hast May come with grief, & grone to see, This trustie friend thus buried bee. Tis meete shee should in solemne sort Have them to grace her funerall, Who have experience (by report) Of much good service done them all: For hearts & hands shee held in bands Off people free in Netherlands. C Her Friends, her heires, that have & hold Her goods, her lands, that them she gave By Testament, as tis enrolld, These must attend about the grave. We place them there, because most right They have, to grieve to see this sight. Let them approach with harts in hand, And with their Teares their faces stayne, Gnashing their teeth, & wayling stand.
Til all be done, let them remayne Lamenting such a freinds as this, That all to soone departed is. D The Children twayne she left behinde, Let them goe next unto the Corse, That we a fitting tyme may fynde, In grave to thrust them both perforce, Whilst for their Mother there they cry With her in grave they both may lye. So with the mother these two Babes, Bad trading and Civill-discord, May end their dayes; & we our trades Regayne & lovingly accord: Which once obtayned may never cease, Till it hath crouwnid the land with peace. E You Lords that live in frontier Townes With hooked Miters on your Crownes, With sheepheards crookes & costly gownes, Which plucke the fleece & starve poore clowns Come beare a parte, now mourne you must, To see your Patron laid in dust. F Preists, Fryers, Monckes, dumbe doggs and drones, Keep home and lurke within your cells, Least souldiers fall upon your bones: But first bring banners, beads and bells, With all the trickes you can devise This funerall to solempnise
G You that Rogation weeke doe keepe, And other tymes processions hold, With Saints on shoulders, nowe come weepe You may no longer be so bold. Such saints, will souldiers hold impure Such holy workes they'l not endure, H Burgers of HEUSDEN and the BUSSE That border on the Guyse townes neare Tread on: for each of you and us Henceforth by force our armes must beare, For feare of those that steale and catch We day and night must keep good watch. I Fatte Clouwnes that in the countrye dwell, That dayly trudge through thick and thynne Whey, butter, cheese, and milke to sell, Good liquor for your gutts to winne, That swallowe down stealinge th'impost, Of wine and beere which yee drincke most. The vittailes which yourselves should eate For hungry souldiours shal be meate: What you have sowen others shall reape, Both goods and gilt earnd by your sweate: Bring TRUCE to grave, to Cityes creep Where you from warres may safely keep. K Ye pilgrims with your staves and coates, Come helpe to lay her underground; Her death bewayle with mournefull notes,
That was your best protector found, In keeping those from you away Which fayne would have your Mantels graye. L Lameseeming rogues, and beggers bold, That halting begg, yet sound can steale, Prepare yourselves, now be foretold To packe out of this Comon weale: For Mars his men will hang the rout That want a passe, yet walke about. But ere you goe TRUCE doth require, That with your presence you her grace: It els would make men much admire, When see they should your empty place: Your ordre keep least men forgett, Where all the commers should be sett. All ye whom it concerneth most, By mourning make your love appeare: So shal her freinds have cause to boast, That many such have lov'd her deare, And you again shal be belov'd As freinds should be that are approv'd. M Now furthermore that men may have, The hidden secretts of the Masse, Therfore is sett upon the grave, Wherfore the TRUCE ordeyned was: Engraven tis upon her tombe, A record for the tymes to come.
N Mars he his implements prepares, And neatly getts on bootes and spurres: He knowing best what fits the warres, Wilt not delay nor make demurres: But summons all with sound of drumme, Forwarning men heel shortly come. O The armes of TRUCE is marking worth, Which caried is upon her corse, She beares the beast that still goes forth, By craft deceaving, not by force, Seeke peace, not warre: yet warre we must, When peace deceaves, and proves unjust.
