WHEN POMPEY great, with fortune longe was bleste, And did subdue his foes, by lande, and sea, And conquestes great obtained in the Easte, And PARTHIANS, and ARABIANS, made obaye, And seas, and Iles, did in subiection bringe, Whose name with feare, did throughe IVDAEA ringe. And had restor'de kinge MASSINAS righte, And ouercame SERTORIVS with his power: And made the Kinge of PONTVS knowe his mighte, Yet, at the lengthe, hee had his haplesse hower: For ouercome by CAESAR, fled for aide, To AEGYPTE lande; wherein hee was betrai'd. Within whose ringe, this forme aboue was wroughte, Whereby, his force, and noble minde appeares; Which, with his head to CAESAR being broughte, For inwarde griefe, hee wash'd the same with teares, And in a fire with odours, and perfumes: This princes head with mourning hee consumes.
