Sir Knight of Crispin on the scroll of fame Henceforth shall stand thy honored name ; Yes, thy boots the feet of kings shall grace, Thou leader of Crispin’s leather race ; And thy noble hall in Stafford street Shall still he filled with the elite. And here I, Sir George, do now declare — Nay, no hoots hut Fleming’s will I wear ; And before I leave Edina’s town, On his brow I’ll settle Crispin’s c'own.
