'T was well this bird of promise did not perch,
Because the tackle of our shatter'd bark
Was not so safe for roosting as a church;

Which in their way that moment chanced to fall,
They would have eat her, olive-branch and all.

The prize Chimene would award their blows
Would make of all my warriors his foes.
