A Ioyful Song of the Royall receiuing of the Queenes most excellent Maiestie into her highnesse Campe at Tilsburie in Essex : on Thursday and Fryday the eight and ninth of August , 1588. To the Tune of Triumph and Ioy .

GOod English men whose valiant harts , With courage great and manly partes , Doe minde to daunt the ouerthwarts , of any foe to England . Attend a while and you shall heare , What loue and kindnesse doth appeare , From the princely mind of our loue deare , Elizabeth Quéene of England . To cheare her souldiers one and all , Of honour great or title small , 〈◊〉 by what name you will them call , 〈…〉 of England . The time being dangerous now ye know , That forraigne enimies to and fro , For to inuade vs make a show , and our good Queene of England . Her Maiestie by graue aduise , Considering how the danger lyes , By all good meanes she can deuise , for the safetie of all England . Hath pointed men of honour right , With all the speede they could or might , A Campe of men there should be pight , on Tilsburie hill in England . Her grace being giuen to vnderstand , The mightie power of this her land , And the willing harts therein she fand , from euery shire in England . The mightie troupes haue shewed the same , That day by day to London came , From shires and townes too long to name , to serue the Queene of England . Her grace to glad their harts againe , In princely person tooke the paine , To honour the troupes and Martiall traine , in Tilsburie campe in England . On Thursday the eight of August last , Her Maiestie by water past , When stormes of winde did blew so fast , would feare some folke in England . And at her forte she went on land , That neare to Tilsburie ( strong ) doth stand , Where all things furnisht there she fand , for the safe defense of England . The great shot then , did rage and roare , Replyed by a forte on the other shore , Whose poudred peilets what wo●●● ye haue more , would feare any foe to England Her highnesse then to the campe did goe , The order there to sée and know : Which , her Lord generall did dutifully show , in Tilsburie campe in England . And euerie Captaine to her came , And euerie Officer of fame , To show their duetie and their name . to their soueraigne Quéene of England . Of tents and cabins , thousands thrée , Some built with bowes and many a trée , And many of canuasse she might sée . in Tilsburie campe in England . Each Captaine had his colours braue , Set ouer his tent in winde to waue , With them their officers there they haue , to serue the Quéene of England . The other lodginges had their signe , For souldiers where to sup and dine , And for to sléepe : with orders fine , in Tilsburie Campe in England . And vittaling boothes , there plentie were , Where they sold meate , bread , cheese and beere . One should haue béen hangd for selling too dear in Tilsburie campe in England . To tell the ioy of all and some , When that her Maiestie was come , Such playing on phiphes and many a drum , to welcome the Queene of England . Displaying of Ensignes verie braue , Such throwing of hats what would ye haue , Such cryes of ioy , God kéepe and saue , our noble Queene of England . And then to bid her grace good night , Great Ordenance shot with pellets pight , Fourteene faire peeces of great might , to feaze the foes of England . Her Maiestie went then away , To the Court , where that her highnesse lay , And came againe on the next day , to Tilsburie campe in England . The Captaines yerly did prepare , To haue their battell set out faire , Against her highnesse comming there , to Tilsburie campe in England And long before her highnesse came , Each point was ordered so in frame , Which serued to set forth the fame , of a royall campe in England . The gallant horsemen mounted braue , With stomackes stoute that courage haue , Whose countenance sterne might well depraue in fight , the foe of England . The armde men , bowmen , and the shot , Of Muskets and Caliuers hot , None of these wanted well I wot , in Tilsburie campe in England . Fiftie ensignes spred there were , Of seuerall colours fine and faire , Of drums and phyp●es , great numbers there . in Tilsburie campe in England . The battell plac'd in order due , mightie host 〈◊〉 tell you true , A famous sight it was to view . that royall campe in England . The hoast thus set in battell ray , In brauer sorte then I can say , For want of knowledge to display , so goodly a campe in England . How the maine battel , and the winges , The vauntgarde , rearewarde , and such things , The horsemen whose sharpe launces stinges , in fight the foe of England . The Noble men , and men of fame , In duetie bound did show the same , To waite when that her highnes came , our soueraigne Quéene of England . And the being come into the field , A martiall staffe , my Lord did yéelde , Unto her highnesse , being our shield , and marshall chiefe of England . Then rode she along the campe to sée , To euerie Captaine orderly , Amid the rankes so royally , the marshall thiefe of England . What princely wordes her grace declarde , What gracious thankes in euery warde , To euery souldier none she sparde , that serued any where for England . With princely promisse none should lacke , Meate or drinke , or cloth for backe , Golde and siluer should not slacke , to her marshall men of England . Then might she see the hats to flye And euerie souldier shouted hye , For our good Queene wee 'l fight or dye , on any foe to England . And many a Captaine kist her hand As the past forth through euerie band , And lest her traine farre off to stand , from her marshall men of England . Two houres she spent among them there , Her princely pleasure to declare , Where many a one did say and sweare , to liue and dye for England . And would not aske one penny pay , To charge her highnesse any way , But of their owne would finde a stay , to serue her grace for England . To my Lordes pauilion then she went A sumptuous faire and famous tent , Where dinner time her highnesse spent , with martiall men of England . In the euening when the tide was come , Her highhnesse thankt them all and some , With trumpets shrile and sound of drum , returnd the queene of England . To the blockhouse where she tooke her barge , There diuers Captaines had their charge , Then shot the cannons off at large . to honour the queene of England . And thus her highnesse went away , For whose long life all England pray , King Henries daughter , and our stay , Elizabeth quéene of England . What subiect would not spend his life , And all he hath to stay the strife , Of forraigne foe that seekes so rife , to inuade this realme of England . Therefore deare countrie men I say , With hart to God let vs all pray , To blesse our Armies night and day , that serue our Queene for England . FINIS . T. I.
