Oh - as if. No, dry your eyes - he meant "our" Black Prince - the son of Edward the Third and Philippa of Hainault. The best king England never had. That's because he died before his father so couldn't prove anybody wrong. Edward III was eventually succeeded by the son of the Black Prince, Richard the Second, whose rapine was of a more specialised sort.
