XI
SIR SIMON DE MONTFORT
lost and for-got-ten are hee and his race.
When the barons in armes did King Henrye oppose, Sir Simon de Montfort their leader they chose; A leader of courage undaunted was hee, And oft-times he made their enemies flee.
At length in the battle on Eveshame Flaine The barons were routed and Montfort was slaine; Most fatall that battel did prove unto thee, Though thou wast not born then, my prettye Bessie i
Along with the nobles that fell at that tyde, His eldest son Henrye, who fought by his side, Was fellde by a blowe he receivde in the fight! A blow that deprivde him for ever of sight.
