ABSTRACT
Shall sweare him to be Bastard to the King. 160 First when my Father was Embassadour In Germanie unto the Emperour,l The King lay often at my Fathers house; And all the Realme suspected what befell: And at my Fathers back returne agen My Mother was delivered as tis sed, Sixe weeks before the account my Father made. 2 But more than this: looke but on Philips face, His features, actions, and his lineaments, And all this Princely presence shall confesse, 170 He is no other but King Richards Sonne. Then gracious Lord, rest he King Richards Sonne, And let me rest safe in my Fathers right, That am his rightfull sonne and onely heire.
