Now sits the session : awful its array !
The fiefs and vassals their due service pay.
From the tribunal calls the Judge his roll : The warden answers foremost of the poll ; The twelve regarders next, worth a knight's fee, Then verd'rors four of esquires' less degree ; Agestors, woodwards, foresters, the last Their names into the jurisdiction cast.
Now comes the sheriff with his white wand train.
And pleads the forest-charter in arraign.
Assent the Judge in the King's name accords, Then reads hi...s precept to the suitor Lords.
33 Whilst forms of court the Chief Judge thus areads, The Churchmen count in unison their beads.
Then rose Earl Engolrane : his corslet bright For doublet now exchang'd with hemlace dight. " Few are the words, Lord Judge, which soldiers bring, Not us'd to plead, but prove by arms the thing. This brief be told : When last Prince Edward led His force against the Welch, Earl Clifford bled, Stock of that scion who usurps this hall. As life ebb'd fast, with half-artic'late call He stay'd me from the fugitive pursuit : And ever had Earl Engolrane been mute ; But that his son has dar'd my ward corrupt, And e'en the royal presence interrupt : These the last words from Clifford's falt'xiag tongue, His prophet spirit prelude of some wrong ; Lost was our patent in John's Baron wars The cause none knows mi/ heir this mysfry bars-^ Against the king in arms has fought my son- Loyal I fall 'Oh pray ourjief re-won^ c hi itihs has fonght the son : Despencer's friend, He sought the crown from our lov'd liege to rend : He fought at Evesham in the rebel train, Nor can all Severn wash his fealty's stain : Of lands and goods the traitor I attaint.
