Prince Henry hosts a private display of lion-baiting at the Tower for the Dukes of Brunswick and Lennox, the Earl of Arundel and others, in which four dogs are set upon a single lion. The Lion 'utterly spoil[s]' the first four; whereupon three Bearwards enter, and set 'a lustie dogge vppon the mouth of the Lyon.' The game continues with increasingly fierce dogs, all of which in good course the lion defeats.
