I'm also pleased to view some lord
Who leads the vanguard in attack,
On armoured horse, a fearless sword,
Who can inspire his men to hack
Away and bravely fight,
And when the conflict's joined aright,
Each must in
readiness
delight,
And follow where he might,
For none attains to honour's height
Till blows have landed left and right.

How he had forced the gate, and, in the press,
Slaughtered

Remained nigh dead, o'erwhelmed with her distress;
She tore her vesture, and her visage marred,
And cursed her want of wit and wariness.
