Such partisanship is hardly in keeping with her previous desire "That she would not be found t'incline to either side" (4.40), but is revealing of the extent to which Jacobean pan-Britannicism and Welsh patriotism drew on precisely the same sources and discourses -- sometimes with awkward results.

 Baldred Bisset’s Pleading
Since he had three sons (namely Locrinus, Albanactus and Camber), he divided this kingdom of his among them.

Afterwards, once Albanactus had been killed by some of his enemies, the kingdom of Albany or Scotland returned to Locrinus as superior lord, and he disposed of the said kingdom which thus came his way as he wished.
