Thus Englished (though not according to their worth.)

THe Spaniard with great Ships, and numberless, Ore-spread the Sea, that with his Kingdoms large He might great Brittains royal Crown possess, Wouldst know the cause of all this stir and charge? 'Twas this: The proud were with Ambition led, And after filthy lucre carryed. How well wert thou [most vain Ambition] Drown'd by the wind? and ye O swelling waves, Ore-came that proud and swelling Dition, World-spoyling Spaniards, midst of all their braves, How well and justly in the gulfe profound, Were, of the Sea unsatiable, drown'd? And thou, for whom the winds and Ocean maine, Are prest to fight, O Queen (the worlds renown) So still for God, without Ambition reign, So still the godly with rich favours crown. That England thee, thou England, long and long May'njoy; the good belov'd, bad fear'd, among.
