And he shall keep the birds in their bounds with all glory; but the unicorn shall couch full low for falſehood that he wrought with the raven yalping, and that was for his greedineſs and treaſon that they shall do by the sea, and under a great hill: for the cock that should have been true was falſe, and draw with him the papingo; by which the roſe have no ſmell that was ever pleaſant to the Kyth; and ſo in their train they shall draw the beſt fowls in the wood; wherefore, alas! but then let them take heed; for then comes their diſtreſs: the horn shall blow ſuch a dolorous ſound, that all the caſtles of Tyne shall quake; and the hart shall run, and make little debate: woe shall be, but it shall not long laſt, for the wolf with the dragon, and the lion, shall they releaſe, that lay along in their den, and juſtice shall be had for that which was ſtayed to riſe; then shall tremble and quake the ſtalwart and the ſtarke; and the right shall be had, that juſtice shall draw, and woe shall be to them that no pity would have for the chieftain of the Kyth, that God would guide, and ſtrike treaſon down on every ſide.
