Shall reap no gain where former rule hath taught still peace to
grow.
No foreign banished wight shall anchor in this port;
Our realm it brooks no stranger’s force, let them elsewhere resort.”

The walls of thy dear honor; keep unshaked
That temple, thy fair mind, that thou mayst stand
T’ enjoy thy banished lord and this great land!”
