Stephanus Marcus 6
Stephanus Marcus Book I
Canto 2
Verse 1
Duke Saint Charles carried falcon tame in cage.
Duke rode with James, King's brother, hunting game.
Their idol conversation played on rage
of Morley over Broughton Place of fame.
Now James disliked Morley's recent claim
to vale before his wedding feast took place.
Such banquet time for wife deserved acclaim
and Liege should wait accepting dale with grace.
Duke Morley needn't use the weapons sword and mace.
