My Lord Dunbar, I stand in need of counsel; Edward, I dread, will execute his threat, Unless we render this fair town and castle; Alas! alas! my gentle boy has fallen In the sea-fight, and now I dread his brother, Before another sun shall shine on Berwick, Will be hung up to appease the tyrant’s rage!
