Battle of Lepanto

"I sing a wondrous worke of God, [...] To wit, a cruell Martiall warre, A bloudy battell bold, Long doubtsome fight, with slaughter huge, And wounded manifold. Which fought was in LEPANTOES gulfe, Betwixt the baptiz'd race, And circumcisèd Turband Turkes Rencountring in that place."

"Then Satan answered, Fayth? Quoth he, Their Fayth is too too small; They striue, me thinke, on eyther part, Who farthest backe can fall: Hast thou not giuen them in my hands, Euen both the sides, I say, That I, as best doth seeme to me, May vse them euery way?"

"Vivat Hispania! Domino gloria! Don John of Austria Has set his people free!"
