Corpora ferratas acies peditúmque cateruas.Varie gen [...] in exerci [...]n Philippi.

Nec deerat miles Latia de gente cruentus,

Dalmata non deerat bello huic nec defuit Hunnus.

At tamen ante alios, fiducia summa locata est

In quibus armatus validè conuenerat Anglus.

Foedus amicitiae vetus id poscebat, & vxor,

Cui cum regefuit soci [...] commune periclum.
