CHAPTER
.
I.
IN
the
second
part
of
the
first
booke
of
this
Historie
,
it
hath
bene
shewed
vnto
you
,
how
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
at
such
time
as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
departed
from
her
,
gaue
vnto
him
a
Damsell
called
Arcania
,
for
to
go
with
him
,
and
●o
beare
him
companie
till
such
●ime
as
he
should
returne
againe
.
And
the
great
charge
which
the
Princesse
had
giuen
vnto
her
,
as
well
in
the
discouering
of
the
great
loue
that
she
bore
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
also
to
haue
a
great
care
of
all
things
that
should
passe
with
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
in
that
iourney
,
that
afterward
she
should
thereof
giue
certaine
and
iust
relation
.
The
Historie
doth
now
saie
,
that
Arcania
did
neuer
depart
nor
was
absent
out
of
the
companie
and
conuersation
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
so
that
she
did
see
and
vnderstand
all
that
did
passe
,
and
how
that
the
marriage
was
concluded
in
such
sort
,
that
there
was
no
remedie
.
Her
sorrowe
was
great
●
caused
in
her
much
heauinesse
,
to
thinke
of
the
great
griefe
that
her
Ladie
should
receiue
when
she
should
vnderstand
the
newes
thereof
,
&
it
séemed
that
her
estate
woulde
litle
profit
to
pacifie
her
,
hearing
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
is
married
to
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
.
This
damsell
Arcania
determined
that
night
to
depart
towardes
her
owne
Countrie
,
and
thinking
that
she
should
doe
well
first
to
giue
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
to
vnderstand
of
her
departure
.
At
such
time
as
he
was
in
his
bed
with
great
light
in
the
chamber
,
she
entered
in
,
and
finding
him
all
alone
,
she
said
:
God
blesse
the
good
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
He
answered
:
Thou
art
welcome
my
good
friend
Arcania
,
what
makest
thou
heere
at
this
time
of
the
night
?
I
come
(
said
she
)
to
take
my
leaue
of
you
,
for
that
I
meane
to
returne
vnto
the
Princesse
Claridiana
my
Ladie
and
mistres
,
for
whereas
she
is
forgotten
and
no
memorie
of
her
seruice
,
I
know
not
what
reward
I
shall
looke
for
of
my
part
.
How
is
this
,
said
the
knight
of
the
Sun
?
Hast
thou
no
hope
that
I
will
gratifie
thée
for
all
thy
good
seruice
?
Doest
thou
not
know
,
that
if
I
should
forget
my selfe
,
there
is
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
my
Ladie
,
who
wil
reward
thée
in
ample
maner
.
Hope
I
haue
none
at
al
in
you
,
sayd
Arcania
,
for
he
that
hath
falsified
his
faith
made
vnto
the
most
highest
&
precious
damsell
in
all
the
world
,
he
will
ill
obserue
and
kéepe
it
with
so
base
and
poore
a
damsell
as
I
am
.
Of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
I
request
no
paiment
at
her
hands
,
for
being
a
damsel
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
I
thinke
it
a
great
reproch
to
receiue
reward
of
anie
other
.
Oh
knight
of
the
Sun
,
how
may
the
fame
of
thy
great
déeds
from
this
day
forwards
cease
,
&
the
praise
of
thy
high
knighthood
,
with
the
continuall
report
of
thy
great
vertue
:
&
increase
the
newes
of
thy
disloialtie
,
when
the
falsifieng
of
thy
●ord
shall
be
knowen
abroade
,
all
men
will
iudge
of
thy
litle
vnderstanding
,
and
will
saie
that
thou
lackedst
reason
for
to
acknowledge
the
good
.
How
is
it
,
good
knight
,
is
your
memorie
past
,
haue
you
lost
your
vnderstanding
,
doe
you
not
remember
how
the
roiall
.
Princesse
Claridiana
onely
for
your
loue
,
left
her
owne
Countrie
of
Trapisonda
,
&
came
into
Grecia
,
at
such
time
as
you
did
offer
your selfe
to
be
her
knigh●●
shée
accepted
you
as
her
owne
,
discouering
vnto
you
the
great
excellencie
of
her
beautie
,
wherby
you
did
vnderstand
that
you
were
by
her
beloued
,
&
thought
at
that
time
that
there
was
not
borne
in
all
the
world
one
so
happie
as
you
were
.
How
is
it
now
that
there
remaineth
in
you
so
little
force
,
and
so
great
villanie
,
that
the
presence
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
can
worke
more
in
effect
than
the
memorie
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
.
Doe
not
you
remember
,
how
that
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
●rebatio
,
they
were
both
present
together
,
whereas
they
did
manifest
their
great
beauties
,
being
with
rich
ornaments
adorned
,
who
was
then
of
you
most
estéemed
and
best
beloued
?
Call
to
remembrance
the
good
wil
which
you
had
at
your
departure
out
of
Grecia
,
and
ioyne
it
to
that
which
you
haue
at
this
present
,
then
shall
you
sée
and
vnderstand
,
how
all
things
is
changed
cleane
contrarie
,
not
for
anie
other
thing
,
but
that
you
doe
more
estéeme
the
things
present
,
although
they
be
small
,
than
those
which
are
to
come
,
though
they
be
more
higher
and
of
greater
valour
,
the
which
procéedeth
of
base
thoughts
and
conditions
.
Oh
how
fraile
and
miserable
is
humane
nature
,
that
whereas
is
so
much
force
and
strength
for
to
ouercome
and
conquere
so
many
knights
and
gyants
,
doth
lacke
heart
and
strength
to
make
resistance
against
one
thought
and
appetite
.
If
that
you
vpon
the
sheeld
of
memorie
of
my
Ladie
and
mistres
,
did
receiue
the
blowes
of
the
presence
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
neither
could
the
blowes
be
so
strong
,
nor
the
shéeld
so
weake
,
but
that
with
great
ease
you
might
remayne
with
the
victorie
.
But
as
you
haue
forgot
your
faith
and
promise
,
so
haue
you
forgot
the
remembrance
of
her
greate
beautie
and
high
valour
,
and
verie
easilie
you
were
ouercome
with
the
presence
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
I
doe
therefore
meane
to
returne
vnto
the
Princesse
my
Ladie
and
mistres
,
and
make
manifest
your
great
disloialtie
,
therefore
the
Lord
bée
with
you
.
When
that
Arcania
had
concluded
these
wordes
,
without
tarrying
ani●
answere
,
she
departed
out
of
the
chamber
,
and
went
downe
the
staires
,
whereas
she
had
lefte
her
Palfraie
in
a
readinesse
,
and
taking
his
backe
,
she
departed
out
of
the
Citie
,
and
tooke
her
iourney
towards
Trapisonda
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
receiued
great
griefe
and
sorrow
for
that
the
damsell
would
depart
,
and
rose
out
of
his
bed
,
and
went
after
her
,
but
séeing
that
she
was
gone
,
hée
made
little
account
of
her
,
for
that
the
loue
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
had
so
inueigled
him
,
that
although
he
did
well
vnderstand
her
wordes
,
yet
they
did
worke
no
more
effect
in
him
,
than
in
one
that
had
béene
cleere
of
all
cares
and
passions
,
till
such
time
as
he
was
laid
againe
in
his
bed
,
whereas
it
did
not
let
somew●at
to
alter
his
profound
imaginations
,
to
remember
what
Arcania
had
said
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
and
of
his
faith
and
worde
giuen
her
to
be
her
knight
:
which
was
the
occasion
that
ther
grew
in
his
thought
a
verie
great
alteration
,
and
troubled
verie
much
his
mind
,
in
such
sort
,
that
it
disturbed
him
from
sléepe
or
taking
anie
rest
,
but
tumbling
and
tossing
from
one
side
of
the
bed
vnto
the
other
,
which
did
increase
in
him
by
little
and
little
the
remembrance
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
.
So
after
a
while
,
being
somewhat
in
quiet
by
reason
of
the
great
disquietnesse
that
he
had
suffered
,
his
minde
receiuing
some
ease
,
and
being
in
a
slumber
neither
sléeping
nor
waking
,
hauing
all
his
senses
occupied
with
the
Princesse
,
it
seemed
that
she
appeared
before
him
with
so
great
maiestie
and
beautie
,
that
it
dazeled
the
sight
of
his
eies
,
equall
vnto
the
shining
of
the
Sunne
when
he
appeareth
out
of
the
Orient
,
her
bodie
al
armed
,
sauing
her
head
&
face
was
wholie
discouered
with
her
yeolow
golden
haire
,
which
was
disparsed
behinde
her
eares
,
and
hung
downe
vnto
the
grounde
like
thréeds
of
golde
,
she
had
her
swoord
naked
in
her
hand
;
and
with
an
irefull
semblaunce
,
lifting
vp
her
arme
for
to
strike
him
,
she
said
.
Oh
false
and
traiterous
Knight
,
thou
art
now
at
the
extremitie
and
point
to
receiue
the
guerdon
for
thy
great
disloialtie
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sun
who
did
behold
her
,
contemplating
himselfe
with
her
strange
beautie
,
accompanied
with
her
great
maiestie
,
was
straight
waies
ouercome
with
the
force
therof
,
so
that
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
in
her
presence
séemed
to
be
verie
foule
,
&
caused
the
sparkes
of
loue
new
to
kindle
within
him
,
which
before
were
put
out
by
the
long
absence
from
her
,
and
began
so
much
to
repent
himselfe
of
that
which
was
past
,
that
he
fel
prostrate
vpon
the
ground
before
the
Princesse
,
crauing
pardon
at
her
hands
,
but
shee
vnto
his
séeming
came
verie
irefull
,
making
no
account
of
that
which
he
had
said
,
but
alwaies
séemed
for
to
strike
him
with
the
sword
she
had
in
her
hand
:
who
being
meruailously
amazed
thereat
,
did
sodainlie
awake
out
of
that
imagination
or
dreame
,
with
so
great
shaking
&
quaking
,
that
all
the
bed
shooke
therewith
.
So
when
he
was
come
wholie
vnto
himselfe
,
and
considered
well
of
al
that
had
passed
,
the
presence
of
the
Princesse
remained
so
graued
in
his
heart
&
minde
,
that
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
she
was
so
naturallie
before
him
in
presence
,
as
when
he
last
sawe
her
in
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
the
old
wound
wherewith
he
was
wounded
at
the
first
sight
of
her
,
did
now
worke
so
much
effect
in
him
,
that
the
remembrance
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
was
cleane
forgotten
,
&
the
loue
of
the
Princes
Claridiana
so
graffed
in
his
hart
,
that
by
no
meanes
he
could
take
anie
quietnesse
or
rest
within
his
bed
,
but
calling
to
remembrance
all
that
was
past
,
&
the
marriage
that
was
ordeined
for
the
next
day
following
,
he
fell
into
a
great
perplexitie
,
&
abhorred
himselfe
.
Wherefore
vpon
a
sodaine
and
in
great
ha●●
hee
arose
vp
from
his
bed
,
and
put
on
his
apparell
,
&
looked
about
for
his
armour
,
which
he
found
hanging
in
a
corner
of
his
chamber
,
wherewith
he
armed
himselfe
in
all
assaies
,
&
tooke
the
light
Torch
that
was
in
his
chamber
burning
,
&
descended
into
the
great
Pallace
,
and
so
into
the
Court
,
and
comming
vnto
the
stable
,
he
found
that
the
horsekéepers
were
a
sleepe
,
and
waking
one
of
them
in
great
secret
,
he
commanded
him
in
great
hast
for
to
saddle
his
horse
.
The
horsekéeper
when
he
knew
him
was
greatlie
amazed
,
and
said
:
My
Lord
,
whether
is
it
your
pleasure
to
goe
in
this
sort
,
and
at
this
time
of
the
night
?
I
goe
(
sayd
the
knight
of
the
Sun
)
after
a
damsell
that
is
gone
awaie
from
me
,
therefore
hold
thy
peace
and
be
quiet
,
for
I
will
returne
againe
by
and
by
.
This
young
man
without
anie
farther
replying
,
did
saddle
his
horse
with
a
trice
,
&
lead
him
out
at
a
poster●te
gate
,
on
whom
the
knight
of
the
Sun
leàpt
with
great
lightnesse
,
and
so
departed
out
of
the
great
Citie
,
&
tooke
an
vnknowen
waie
by
a
valley
,
for
that
if
anie
should
follow
him
,
they
should
not
finde
him
.
So
he
trauailed
so
long
by
that
valley
,
that
it
brought
him
vnto
many
rockes
and
hilles
which
was
at
the
foote
of
the
mightie
mountaine
called
Taurus
,
which
is
one
of
the
largest
in
all
the
world
,
and
entered
into
the
said
mountaine
at
such
time
as
the
Sun
appeared
,
and
for
that
he
found
himselfe
wearie
with
the
great
trauaile
that
night
,
he
determined
there
for
to
rest
himselfe
,
supposing
that
no
man
would
come
to
séeke
him
in
that
place
▪
wherewith
he
alighted
,
and
pulled
off
his
horse
bridle
,
and
committed
him
vnto
the
gréene
field
to
féede
at
pleasure
.
Then
did
he
laie
himselfe
down
vpon
the
greene
hearbes
,
the
which
were
so
delightfull
,
that
it
yéelded
occasion
vnto
his
afflicted
sorrow
,
to
contemplate
himselfe
in
the
highnesse
&
beautie
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
which
caused
him
for
to
tumble
and
tosse
vpon
the
gréene
grasse
without
taking
anie
rest
,
yéelding
forth
great
sighs
,
forced
by
repentance
of
all
that
was
passed
,
&
shedding
many
sorrowfull
and
●itter
teares
,
the
which
distilled
from
the
veines
of
his
heart
,
he
spake
as
followeth
.
Oh
cruell
&
false
traitor
that
I
am
,
how
doth
it
behoue
me
now
to
shun
the
companie
of
people
,
that
do
vnderstand
and
know
the
occasion
of
this
mishap
,
but
to
conclude
&
end
this
my
sorrowfull
life
amongst
the
rocks
.
&
mountaines
,
in
the
companie
of
brute
beasts
that
doth
not
vnderstand
my
disloialtie
and
great
treason
.
What
was
become
of
my
reason
,
and
where
was
mine
vnderstanding
?
Where
did
I
loose
my
wits
and
memorie
,
that
being
blinded
with
follie
,
&
forgetting
my selfe
,
I
should
vse
so
great
treason
against
that
roiall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
whom
I
doo
honour
?
Oh
euill
traitor
that
I
am
,
how
can
I
be
so
bold
for
to
mention
in
my
mouth
the
name
of
so
high
&
mightie
a
Princesse
,
endowed
with
so
great
beautie
and
vertue
,
whom
all
that
now
liue
in
the
world
doth
not
deserue
to
serue
,
much
lesse
I
,
wretch
as
I
am
.
Alasse
what
shall
become
of
me
?
From
this
daie
forwards
may
I
frustrate
my selfe
of
all
hope
euen
for
to
sée
her
,
hauing
so
great
reason
,
that
iustlie
I
cannot
present
my selfe
in
her
presence
.
Ah
wretch
,
at
such
time
as
by
her
damsell
Arcania
she
shall
vnderstand
all
that
hath
passed
with
me
,
how
blindlie
and
foolishlie
I
haue
vsed
my selfe
,
then
wil
she
make
no
more
account
of
me
than
of
a
base
&
vile
knight
,
&
with
iust
reason
according
vnto
her
high
bountie
take
reuengement
of
me
.
But
alasse
,
the
punishment
that
I
do
iustlie
deserue
,
according
vnto
my
desert
,
shall
I
abide
to
receiue
it
at
her
handes
?
No
surelie
,
but
first
I
will
take
it
with
mine
owne
hands
,
for
that
I
could
not
consider
the
great
benefit
that
God
did
shew
vnto
me
,
the
high
throne
wherevnto
I
was
exalted
,
the
great
glorie
that
I
did
receiue
when
I
was
accepted
and
receiued
for
knight
vnto
the
royall
princesse
,
what
ioy
might
haue
bene
compared
vnto
mine
?
If
I
had
not
bene
foolish
and
out
of
my
wits
,
I
had
bene
equall
with
those
that
doth
continuallie
recreate
themselues
in
the
presence
of
the
almightie
,
without
desire
of
anie
other
pleasure
.
But
alasse
and
woe
,
euen
as
so
high
a
name
cannot
be
comprehended
in
so
base
a
knight
as
I
am
,
so
in
short
time
I
haue
lost
the
preheminence
,
and
am
depriued
of
all
.
Oh
that
my
fortune
were
so
happie
,
that
the
course
of
my
naturall
life
were
come
to
conclusion
,
to
make
an
end
of
this
my
sorrowful
torment
,
for
that
liuing
I
might
not
féele
&
suffer
so
great
misfortune
.
In
saying
these
&
many
other
wordes
,
very
dolorous
to
heare
,
this
passiened
knight
remained
a
good
while
ashamed
of
himself
,
with
great
repentance
of
all
that
was
past
,
&
wished
that
he
had
neuer
ben
borne
,
especiallie
when
that
he
called
to
remembrance
what
the
Emperour
Alicandro
with
all
the
mightie
kings
and
Princes
of
his
Court
would
doe
,
when
that
in
séeking
of
him
he
shoulde
n●t
bée
found
,
likewise
when
that
they
shall
vnderstand
of
his
departure
.
So
considering
his
owne
shame
,
&
the
reproch
that
would
be
imputed
to
him
for
disturbing
the
court
,
the
storie
leaueth
him
for
to
declare
what
passed
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperor
Alicandro
,
when
his
departure
was
knowen
.
What
happened
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour

when
they
vnderstood
of

THe
next
daie
being
come
,
wherein
should
be
celebrater
the
solempne
marriage
of
the
knight
of
●he
Sunne
with
the
faire
Princesse
Lindabrides
.
The
Emperour
with
all
those
mightie
kings
&
Princes
,
tooke
the
vantange
of
the
morning
,
&
did
apparel
thēselue●
verie
richlie
,
in
such
excellent
sorte
,
that
it
séemed
all
the
〈◊〉
of
the
world
was
there
ioyned
together
,
&
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
séemed
to
tarrie
long
in
his
chamber
,
the
Troian
Oristedes
,
&
many
other
that
did
loue
and
beare
him
good
will
,
did
repaire
vnto
his
lodging
for
to
séeke
him
,
but
when
they
came
thether
and
found
him
not
there
,
they
were
greatlie
amazed
,
&
the
more
,
for
that
there
was
none
that
could
tel
them
anie
newes
of
him
,
but
searching
for
his
armour●
&
horse
,
and
not
finding
them
,
they
straight
waies
vnderstood
that
he
was
departed
.
This
newes
was
published
throughout
the
pallace
,
which
brought
them
all
in
a
maze
,
at
which
report
the
horsekéeper
that
did
saddle
his
horse
came
before
the
Emperour
,
&
told
him
of
his
departure
,
and
what
words
he
expressed
at
that
time
,
whereat
the
Emperor
greatlie
meruailed
(
and
entering
into
his
cogitation
some
sparke
of
suspition
)
he
straight
waies
commanded
many
of
his
knights
and
Gentlemen
,
that
they
should
follow
the
quest
of
séeking
him
,
which
commandement
being
published
,
there
was
with
a
trice
more
than
ten
thousand
knightes
armed
,
&
separated
themselues
diuerse
waies
,
some
one
waie
,
and
some
another
,
and
amongst
them
went
Oristedes
,
with
the
two
Princes
of
Cambray
&
Candaria
,
vnto
whom
it
séemed
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
would
not
follow
nor
take
anie
knowen
or
beaten
waie
,
but
rather
towards
the
mountaines
,
the
better
to
haue
his
trauaile
in
secret
.
So
being
departed
,
they
tooke
their
waie
towards
the
mount
Tauro
by
vnknowen
waies
,
and
fortune
did
so
serue
them
,
that
they
followed
the
right
waie
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sun
had
gone
,
and
in
many
places
they
discouered
the
steps
of
his
horse
,
which
séemed
to
be
new
troden
,
&
followed
the
same
so
long
,
till
in
the
end
they
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
they
found
him
lying
all
along
the
gréene
grasse
,
with
his
face
and
eies
swollen
with
wéeping
,
and
séemed
to
bée
so
wearie
that
he
had
no
power
to
arise
,
but
when
they
sawe
him
,
and
were
fullie
satisfied
of
knowing
him
,
they
were
verie
glad
because
it
was
their
fortune
to
finde
him
,
and
yet
not
a
little
amazed
to
see
him
in
that
trance
.
Then
Oristedes
came
vnto
him
,
and
did
awake
him
,
saying
:
Sir
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
my
good
Lord
&
verie
friend
,
what
vrgent
cause
hath
moued
you
at
such
time
to
depart
from
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
.
The
Knight
of
the
Sunne
knowing
them
,
was
verie
sorrowfull
for
that
they
had
found
him
,
and
being
ignorant
what
answere
to
make
them
,
he
kept
silence
,
but
in
a
great
confusion
,
imagining
how
he
might
separate
himselfe
out
of
their
companie
.
Then
they
all
thrée
together
,
with
great
loue
requested
him
to
shew
them
the
cause
of
his
departure
,
&
the
occasion
of
this
perplexitie
into
the
which
he
was
brought
:
who
determining
to
giue
them
to
vnderstand
the
whole
effct
thereof
,
began
to
declare
to
them
as
followeth
.
My
good
friends
,
if
héeretofore
you
haue
had
anie
experience
in
loue
,
then
are
you
not
ignorant
,
that
his
power
is
such
,
that
it
doth
depriue
men
of
all
reason
&
vnderstanding
,
in
such
sort
,
that
they
cannot
féele
nor
know
anie
thing
,
and
especiallie
them
that
be
conformable
vnto
their
amorous
desires
and
disordinate
appetities
,
which
is
the
occasion
that
we
haue
apparant
before
our
eies
,
so
many
thousands
of
disastres
in
this
world
,
and
loue
the
onelie
cause
thereof
,
and
for
to
declare
them
,
time
doth
not
now
serue
:
Euen
so
I
béeing
taken
prisoner
with
the
loue
of
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
and
blinde
without
anie
discretion
,
had
not
so
much
reason
for
to
consider
nor
to
allow
more
than
that
which
was
conformable
vnto
my
wil
and
amorous
desire
,
being
bound
vnto
all
inconueniences
and
perills
resistant
vnto
my
will
,
by
the
which
I
was
brought
vnto
the
point
,
as
you
my
Lords
haue
séene
&
vndersfood
,
how
that
this
night
past
was
dilated
the
marriage
betwéene
the
Prin●●sse
me
,
fo●
the
which
I
receiued
great
griefe
,
but
that
mightie
God
&
redéemer
of
all
the
ri●●es
,
&
maker
of
heauen
and
earth
,
who
hath
power
ouer
all
things
,
against
whose
infinit
power
there
is
no
resistance
,
by
his
great
mercie
did
permit
that
al
my
corporal
senses
which
were
inchaunted
,
and
prisoners
vnto
the
loue
of
the
Princesse
,
was
this
night
set
frée
from
all
subiection
by
the
which
I
was
awaked
out
of
that
blinde
dreame
wherein
I
laie
,
so
that
I
did
sée
and
consider
the
great
errour
that
I
did
commit
in
taking
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
vnto
my
wife
:
for
she
being
a
Pagan
and
I
a
Christian
,
it
is
the
most
reprochfull
thing
that
can
be
vsed
in
all
Christian
religion
,
so
that
either
she
must
returne
to
be
a
Christian
,
or
else
I
must
forsake
my
profession
,
and
become
a
Pagan
.
The
other
,
for
that
I
being
a
Christian
,
shuld
euil
preserue
so
great
a
multitude
of
Pagans
,
as
is
in
the
whole
state
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
for
that
they
will
not
haue
a
Christian
knight
for
their
Lord
and
gouernour
,
neither
should
I
be
in
securitie
amongst
so
many
Pagans
.
Besides
all
this
,
the
great
griefe
which
the
Emperour
my
father
and
all
his
subiects
shall
receiue
,
when
they
shall
vnderstand
how
that
I
am
married
in
a
strange
Country
so
far
distant
from
his
,
with
great
reason
they
may
all
desire
&
wish
my
death
.
So
my
verie
good
friends
,
I
considering
of
this
and
many
other
things
which
I
omit
to
declare
,
determined
this
night
past
to
depart
,
because
I
would
not
heape
one
errour
vpon
another
,
for
that
there
is
amendement
in
that
which
is
past
,
so
that
I
am
fullie
determined
not
to
retourne
anie
more
vnto
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Alica●●●o
,
and
therefore
I
desire
you
in
my
behalfe
;
to
declare
〈◊〉
him
,
that
I
craue
pardon
at
his
hands
,
and
to
consider
the
iust
occasions
that
moueth
me
not
to
accept
the
high
proffer
offered
me
,
and
how
that
in
whatsoeuer
place
I
shall
become
,
he
shall
alwaies
finde
me
his
true
and
faithfull
seruaunt
.
These
thrée
knightes
were
verie
much
amazed
at
these
wordes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
were
verie
sorrowfull
for
that
which
he
had
giuen
them
to
vnderstand
,
who
replied
vpon
him
with
louing
requests
for
to
returne
againe
vnto
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
,
and
to
put
all
such
thoughtes
out
of
his
minde
.
Who
hearing
those
new
replies
,
he
arose
vp
vpon
a
sodain●
,
and
finding
his
horse
at
hand
,
without
anie
more
tarrying
,
prese●tly
hée
br●deled
him
,
and
with
great
lightnesse
he
tooke
his
backe
,
saying
.
My
good
Lordes
and
friends
,
I
doe
most
heartelie
desire
you
that
in
this
matter
you
will
not
importune
me
anie
more
,
for
that
I
will
first
consent
to
die
rather
than
to
accomplish
or
fulfill
your
request
,
and
rest
you
in
the
power
of
good
fortune
,
for
I
will
depart
.
And
in
saying
these
words
he
set
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
and
like
vnto
the
winde
he
ranne
vp
a
high
and
mightie
hill
.
Oristedes
when
he
sawe
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
depart
in
that
sort
,
he
set
spurres
to
his
horse
,
and
sayd
vnto
his
companions
:
My
Lordes
,
may
it
please
you
to
carrie
these
newes
vnto
the
Emperour
Aly●andro
,
for
that
I
wil
not
leaue
the
companie
of
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
therewith
he
forced
his
pace
after
him
so
fast
,
that
in
the
end
of
an
houre
he
ouertooke
him
at
the
top
of
the
mount
Tauro
,
whereas
they
found
verie
faire
plaines
and
pleasant
Forrests
,
but
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
sawe
him
follow
all
alone
,
he
was
verie
glad
and
tarried
for
him
,
who
certified
him
how
that
his
companions
remained
behinde
,
and
how
that
he
would
not
leaue
his
companie
,
if
it
were
his
pleasure
to
accept
it
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
gaue
him
great
thankes
,
gratifying
his
good
will
,
at
which
instant
there
was
confirmed
betweene
them
so
great
&
perfect
loue
,
that
it
endured
vntil
their
deaths
.
These
two
knights
trauailed
together
many
daies
vppon
the
mightie
mountaine
,
whereas
they
did
not
lacke
of
all
sortes
of
meates
for
their
diets
,
in
Castles
and
houses
which
they
found
vppon
the
mountaine
,
whereas
this
Historie
doth
leaue
them
,
for
to
retourne
vnto
those
two
Princes
that
came
with
Oristedes
,
who
remained
in
great
confusion
with
that
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
their
companion
had
done
,
in
such
sorte
that
they
knew
not
what
to
saie
.
But
in
conclusion
they
Agr●●●
together
for
to
depart
,
&
at
such
time
as
the
night
approched
,
they
came
vnto
the
mightie
Citie
of
Naptaria
,
whereas
they
found
the
Emperour
meruailouslie
tro●bled
,
and
all
the
whole
Court
in
great
alteration
.
But
wheir
they
had
declared
all
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
had
said
vnto
them
,
his
griefe
was
such
,
that
he
tore
the
haire
from
his
head
and
beard
,
and
smote
himselfe
vpon
the
face
,
that
it
was
great
pittie
to
behold
,
how
the
great
loue
that
before
he
bare
vnto
him
,
is
now
charged
into
mortall
hate
,
&
swore
by
his
high
Gods
,
that
he
would
vtterlie
renounce
and
denie
them
,
if
he
might
not
bée
reuenged
of
that
iniurie
which
was
done
vnto
him
by
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
which
rage
,
hée
straight
waies
called
together
all
those
mightie
kings
and
noble
men
of
his
Court
,
vnto
whom
he
did
declare
all
which
had
passed
,
and
made
manifest
vnto
them
the
great
anger
the
which
he
receiu●d
,
and
sayd
that
his
honour
conformable
vnto
his
〈…〉
not
receiue
iust
satifaction
,
except
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
be
taken
prisoner
,
and
punished
according
vnto
his
desert
,
and
for
the
accomplishing
thereof
,
hée
knew
no
other
remedie
,
but
to
ioyne
together
a
great
hoast
and
number
of
people
,
and
with
them
to
passe
into
Grecia
,
and
to
destr●ie
all
that
Empire
,
full
such
time
as
they
haue
taken
prisoner
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
the
mightie
Emperour
his
Father
,
vpon
whom
he
might
execute
his
wrath
,
and
take
reuengement
on
their
persons
for
the
iniurie
done
vnto
him
.
And
as
amongst
friends
,
and
such
as
bée
priuate
vnto
noble
men
,
there
neuer
lacketh
one
or
other
that
will
rather
be
conformable
vnto
their
wills
,
and
aide
and
helpe
them
in
the
executing
of
their
wrath
,
sooner
with
anie
reason
to
make
resistance
to
auoide
inconueniences
:
euen
so
it
fell
out
in
this
assemblie
(
although
there
were
some
there
present
that
did
not
like
well
of
the
Emperours
words
)
yet
ther
were
many
other
that
did
commend
his
pretence
in
saying
that
it
was
well
done
,
&
to
the
contrarie
,
if
the
Emperour
did
not
séeke
reuengement
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
that
for
euer
after
he
should
remain
iniured
&
infamous
.
Also
there
was
added
therevnto
by
certaine
young
braines
and
gr●ene
heads
(
who
were
verie
desirous
to
get
honour
)
that
vnto
the
Gods
they
should
doe
great
honour
and
seruice
,
for
to
destroie
that
Emperour
of
Grecia
,
for
that
they
were
Christians
,
and
enimies
vnto
their
lawe
,
and
the
better
for
to
accomplish
the
same
,
they
did
offer
themselues
i●
person
with
their
goods
and
vassals
,
with
pretence
to
ioyne
together
the
greatest
armie
that
euer
was
made
in
all
the
world
,
and
for
that
these
young
Knights
tooke
the
vantage
in
speaking
first
,
others
that
wer
ther
present
(
who
had
other
things
in
their
thoughts
)
held
their
peace
,
&
almost
perforce
did
consent
vnto
all
the
which
the
Emperour
would
doe
,
who
being
somewhat
comforted
in
that
he
sawe
how
euerie
one
receiued
part
of
his
anger
,
he
forthwith
commanded
that
it
should
be
proclaimed
throughout
all
the
Court
,
that
all
noble
men
&
principall
gouernours
in
all
his
Realmes
&
dominions
,
should
assemble
together
in
his
great
Citie
before
the
end
of
two
moneths
,
pronouncing
great
penalties
vpon
them
that
did
not
performe
the
same
.
So
for
that
the
newes
of
the
departure
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
was
throughlie
knowen
amongst
the
people
,
it
could
not
be
hidden
from
the
faire
Princes
Lindabrides
,
who
hauing
an
inkling
of
the
same
,
commanded
to
call
before
her
the
Prince
of
Cambray
,
and
declared
all
that
passed
with
the
knight
of
the
Sun
in
his
presence
,
but
when
the
Princesse
had
well
heard
&
vnderstood
the
effect
of
his
tale
,
she
straight
waie
suspected
what
was
the
occasion
thereof
,
&
vnderstoode
verie
well
that
the
remembrance
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
was
the
cause
of
his
departure
more
than
anie
other
thing
,
which
was
the
reason
that
her
sorrow
increased
so
much
,
that
there
was
no
euill
in
all
the
world
that
might
be
compared
vnto
hers
,
which
was
in
such
sort
,
that
after
she
had
remained
in
a
trance
for
the
space
of
more
than
one
houre
,
in
comming
againe
vnto
her selfe
,
she
gaue
such
terrible
shrikes
,
that
it
séemed
to
penetrate
the
heauens
,
tearing
in
péeres
her
kerchers
&
head
attire
which
was
verie
fine
,
pulling
her
golden
&
rubicond
haire
,
vttering
words
of
so
great
dolour
&
griefe
,
that
all
those
that
heard
them
were
moued
with
great
compassion
to
wéep
,
&
ther
was
not
one
that
could
giue
her
anie
comfort
,
for
that
they
were
all
oppressed
with
sorrow
,
and
could
not
speak
vnto
her
one
word
,
but
the
passioned
princesse
amongst
other
lamentations
,
said
:
O
high
&
immortall
Gods
,
let
my
sorowfull
complaints
ascend
vnto
your
diuine
maiesties
,
&
let
your
eares
be
pertakers
of
these
my
passions
,
&
let
these
my
griefs
be
manifest
before
you
,
y●
with
sodain
death
I
may
be
taken
out
of
this
world
,
&
let
not
your
soueraigne
prouidence
consent
that
I
liue
anie
longer
,
for
to
suffer
so
strong
repuise
of
fortune
:
Oh
disgrace
so
vnhappie
,
and
fortune
so
terrible
,
I
would
I
had
died
a
thousand
deaths
before
I
had
knowen
so
great
●isaster
,
and
who
would
not
first
desire
to
die
,
rather
than
to
liue
&
sée
so
great
euill
:
oh
destinie
,
signes
,
&
planets
,
vnder
whom
I
was
borne
and
subiect
,
with
none
could
you
dse
your
crueltie
so
much
as
you
do
with
me
,
it
had
ben
better
that
I
had
neuer
ben
borne
,
than
vnder
so
cruell
constellations
to
maintain
life
,
but
what
do
I
saie
,
vnhappy
that
I
am
,
for
according
vnto
my
misfortune
,
and
the
greatnesse
of
my
griefe
and
sorrow
,
the
high
Gods
,
who
doth
excéede
the
operations
celestialls
,
did
make
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
of
so
great
valour
,
that
my
misfortune
shoulde
excéede
the
influence
of
the
signes
and
planets
celestialls
,
and
in
saying
these
wordes
,
the
faire
Princesse
fel
into
a
sound
,
and
was
so
farre
out
of
all
remembrance
that
her
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
did
thinke
verilie
that
she
was
dead
,
yet
had
thy
great
care
,
&
tooke
great
paines
for
to
comfort
her
,
but
all
did
profit
verie
little
,
for
that
she
suffered
a
long
time
,
and
neuer
entered
into
her
breast
any
ioy
or
comfort
,
but
many
times
to
the
point
of
death
she
was
brought
,
she
grew
to
be
verie
heauie
and
sad
,
alwaies
hoping
of
the
reuengement
which
her
Father
did
promise
to
take
of
him
,
which
was
the
whole
occasion
thereof
.
Whom
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
at
this
present
,
for
to
tell
you
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
who
remained
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
.
How
the
Princesse
Claridiana
departed
from
Constantineple
,
and
returned
vnto
the
Empire
of
Trapisond
,
for
certaine
newes
which
were
brought
her
.
Chap.
3.
YOu
haue
vnderstood
by
the
History
,
how
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
at
such
time
as
the
knight
of
the
Sun
departed
from
her
,
remained
in
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
with
determination
not
to
depart
thence
,
til
such
time
as
he
should
returne
from
the
gran
Catayo
.
Now
saith
the
Historie
,
that
she
being
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
with
great
ioye
,
for
the
high
honour
and
good
entertainment
which
she
receiued
of
al
persons
,
although
with
much
griefe
for
the
absence
of
her
knight
.
Upon
a
daie
it
hapried
,
that
there
came
vnto
her
twelue
ancient
knights
and
of
great
honour
from
the
Empire
of
Trapisonda
,
all
apparelled
in
blacke
,
which
did
signifie
great
heauinesse
,
who
with
sorrowful
countenance
did
humble
themselues
on
their
knées
before
her
,
and
did
kisse
her
hands
,
as
their
Ladie
and
mistres
,
and
they
gaue
her
to
vnderstand
,
how
that
the
Emperour
her
Father
,
and
Empresse
her
Mother
,
were
both
departed
the
world
,
vpon
a
sicknesse
that
tooke
them
both
together
,
and
so
ended
their
daies
,
&
how
that
all
the
nobilitie
of
her
Empire
did
request
her
,
y●
out
of
hand
the
should
depart
,
to
put
in
quietnesse
▪
and
set
in
good
order
her
high
estate
,
for
her
absence
(
being
without
Lord
)
might
be
the
occasion
of
some
great
peril
.
When
that
this
dolefull
newes
was
heard
by
the
Princesse
,
she
receiued
great
sorrow
at
her
heart
,
for
the
death
of
her
parents
,
whom
she
loued
verie
much
,
&
considering
of
her
departure
from
Grecia
,
which
was
of
compulsion
,
her
sorow
did
double
increase
,
yet
was
she
somwhat
conforted
by
the
parents
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
who
did
honour
her
in
all
respects
,
then
she
séeing
that
of
necessitie
she
must
depart
out
of
hand
,
she
went
vnto
the
Emperor
&
Empresse
Briana
,
&
gaue
them
to
vnderstand
therof
,
crauing
lisence
for
her
departure
,
promising
them
to
returne
againe
as
soone
as
she
had
put
in
order
her
estate
,
&
set
it
in
quiet
.
The
Emperor
&
the
empresse
receiued
great
griefe
at
those
dolefull
newes
,
&
also
that
the
departure
of
the
Princesse
was
of
pure
necessitie
,
for
that
the
loue
which
shée
had
recouered
amongst
them
in
the
smal
time
that
she
was
there
,
was
very
much
,
but
séeing
the
iust
reason
that
she
had
to
〈◊〉
,
in
lamenting
the
death
of
her
parents
,
they
saide
that
it
was
in
her
choice
to
vse
her
pleasure
as
she
should
thinke
best
,
and
how
that
they
were
all
at
her
commandement
,
in
anie
thing
she
would
imploie
them
.
This
good
Emperour
did
not
alonelie
offer
vnto
her
knights
of
great
renewin
for
to
beare
her
companie
into
her
Countrie
,
but
also
did
contend
that
himselfe
in
person
would
do
the
like
.
This
roiall
Princesse
surrendering
great
thanks
for
the
same
,
would
not
consent
that
the
Emperor
neither
anie
of
his
knights
should
go
with
her
,
but
alonelie
her
owne
Ladies
&
Gentlewomen
in
companie
with
those
knights
the
came
from
Trapisonda
.
So
taking
hir
leaue
of
them
all
,
where
amongst
them
was
shed
many
teares
,
the
roiall
Princesse
departed
out
of
the
great
&
mightie
citie
of
Constantinople
,
accompanied
with
the
Emperor
&
the
most
principal
knights
of
his
court
they
did
conduct
her
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whereas
they
did
embrace
her
&
commend
her
vnto
God
.
She
straight
waies
did
embarke
her selfe
with
all
her
companie
,
&
began
to
saile
towards
the
Empire
of
Trapisonda
,
and
the
Emperor
with
all
his
knights
returned
againe
vnto
the
Citie
,
whereas
he
felt
great
griefe
for
the
lack
of
his
sons
,
&
of
the
good
knights
that
were
absent
for
their
respects
from
the
court
.
Now
doth
the
Historie
returne
vnto
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
&
saith
,
that
they
found
the
wind
so
prosperous
,
that
in
a
short
time
they
ariued
at
the
mightie
Empire
of
Trapisond
,
whereas
she
was
receiued
of
her
nobles
&
vassolls
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
vnto
them
all
,
who
receiued
great
content
,
for
that
they
had
so
noble
&
faire
a
gouernesse
,
that
in
all
the
world
they
beléeued
was
not
her
equall
,
as
truth
is
she
was
,
as
well
in
beautie
as
in
customes
&
comlie
grace
,
that
she
had
not
her
péere
in
her
time
.
So
after
that
the
funerall
was
concluded
for
the
Emperor
&
Empresse
,
as
did
appertaine
vnto
their
high
estates
,
the
roiall
Princesse
was
crowned
for
Empresse
,
&
in
the
time
that
she
remained
,
her
gouernment
was
such
,
that
in
y●
as
wel
as
in
all
other
things
,
appeared
that
God
did
vse
great
bountie
in
her
behalfe
aboue
all
other
,
who
with
great
care
did
p●sse
the
time
many
daies
,
alwaies
awaiting
when
she
should
heare
newes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
whose
long
absence
was
cocasion
of
her
great
sorrow
&
griefe
,
in
such
sort
,
that
whatsoeuer
pastimes
&
pleasures
her
subiectes
did
ordaine
to
giue
her
content
,
yet
could
she
not
receiue
anie
comfort
or
ioy
,
neither
could
she
put
him
out
of
her
remembraunce
a
moment
,
for
that
she
was
not
in
quiet
:
neither
could
she
not
refraine
from
the
great
oppressions
of
her
thoughts
,
suspecting
the
great
perill
wherein
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
,
with
the
continuall
presence
and
conuersation
that
he
hadde
with
the
faire
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
which
séemed
vnto
her
such
,
that
according
vnto
the
great
valour
and
desert
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
the
soueraigne
beautie
and
grace
of
the
Princesse
:
it
were
a
thing
impossible
but
that
the
one
must
néedes
lone
the
other
.
So
with
thi●
great
care
and
troubles
of
minde
,
the
storie
doth
leaue
her
,
for
to
tell
you
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
in
companie
with
the
valiant
Oristedes
,
was
trauailing
through
the
gran
Tartaria

and
Oristedes

trauailing

.
Chap.
4.
WIth
great
trauaile
and
hast
did
these
two
great
friends
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
&
the
troian
Oristedes
,
make
their
iourneies
,
ouer
the
mightie
féedes
of
the
mounre
Tauro
,
which
was
verie
fresh
and
delightfull
,
and
polished
with
manie
Castells
,
and
faire
houses
,
in
which
trauaile
for
the
space
of
manie
daies
,
they
did
sundry
feates
of
armes
,
by
reason
that
the
inhabitants
ther
,
were
verie
barbarous
,
so
that
euerie
daie
they
were
driuen
to
armore
and
to
make
their
defence
.
And
in
al
places
wheresoeuer
they
became
,
they
hadde
contention
with
the
dwellers
there
aboutes
,
and
although
all
that
mountaine
was
replenished
with
Castiles
and
houses
,
somwhat
apart
the
one
from
the
other
,
yet
did
they
passe
the
greatest
part
thereof
with
little
daunger
,
till
vppon
a
night
it
happened
being
verie
darke
,
and
they
in
the
field
where
as
they
could
not
discouer
neither
castle
nor
house
,
whether
they
might
go
to
lodge
themselues
,
&
being
in
such
a
constillation
,
as
was
very
colde
,
so
that
the
first
part
of
the
night
they
passed
with
great
trouble
,
till
such
time
as
from
far
of
they
discouered
a
light
of
fier
,
which
séemed
to
be
in
a
great
and
déeps
valley
,
they
thinking
that
it
was
made
by
some
shepherds
that
kept
their
shéepe
there
,
being
very
glad
,
went
thether
wards
.
And
when
they
came
nigh
vnto
the
place
,
they
saw
that
it
was
a
companie
of
more
then
thirtie
barbarous
people
of
the
countrie
,
being
of
a
high
and
large
stature
,
and
either
of
them
had
but
one
eye
,
and
that
was
in
their
foreheads
,
as
big
as
a
smal
looking
glasse
.
They
were
al
apparailed
with
the
skins
of
beares
,
and
of
other
beastes
,
sitting
round
about
a
great
fier
which
they
had
made
,
and
some
of
them
were
rosting
of
certaine
Uenison
,
and
of
other
beastes
(
which
they
had
taken
)
vpon
spits
of
wood
.
Their
talke
which
they
had
was
verie
barbarous
and
strange
,
so
that
these
knights
could
not
vnderstand
them
,
for
it
séemed
to
be
a
kinde
of
howling
or
bleating
:
but
when
they
came
nigh
vnto
them
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
to
sée
people
so
brutish
,
&
staied
themselues
,
not
knowing
what
to
say
.
These
barbarous
monsters
when
they
saw
them
vpon
the
Horse
backes
,
and
so
richly
armed
,
straightwaies
one
which
semed
to
be
the
principal
amongst
them
,
began
to
speake
in
their
barbarous
tongue
,
making
signes
that
they
should
alight
,
&
come
vnto
the
fire
to
warme
them
,
and
to
take
part
of
their
supper
,
which
was
there
a
dressing
.
So
when
the
knights
vnderstode
their
meanings
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
saide
vnto
Oristedes
,
my
very
good
friend
what
doe
you
thinke
best
that
we
doe
:
Then
Oristedes
said
,
Sir
it
séemes
vnto
mée
requisite
to
do
that
which
necessitie
doth
constraine
vs
,
that
is
,
that
we
alight
&
go
vnto
the
fier
,
and
suppe
with
this
people
,
for
that
colde
&
hunger
,
will
not
consent
that
we
doe
any
other
thing
.
And
afterward
if
they
demaund
of
vs
paiment
for
the
shotte
,
then
is
there
your
fine
cutting
sworde
which
will
pay
for
vs
all
.
Be
it
done
as
you
haue
saide
,
my
very
good
friend
Oristedes
,
said
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
your
bountie
,
in
what
soeuer
perill
,
doth
put
vs
in
suretie
:
but
yet
mée
thinks
it
not
requisite
to
sléepe
much
among
this
people
.
And
in
saying
these
words
,
these
two
worthie
knights
did
alight
,
and
pulled
the
bridles
from
their
Horses
,
and
gaue
them
leaue
to
féede
on
the
gréene
grasse
,
of
which
there
was
great
store
,
so
they
came
vnto
the
fier
and
sat
themselues
downe
by
the
principall
of
them
,
with
their
beuers
lifted
vp
.
But
when
these
barbarous
people
did
sée
them
so
faire
and
of
so
gallant
disposition
,
they
all
had
a
great
good
will
for
to
kill
them
&
to
eate
them
,
for
that
they
hadde
rather
féede
vpon
humaine
flesh
when
they
may
get
it
,
then
of
any
other
beast
.
So
that
in
their
bleating
speach
,
they
concluded
amongst
them
for
to
execute
their
pretence
.
And
these
knights
for
that
they
did
not
vnderstand
them
,
held
their
peace
,
warmeing
themselues
by
the
fier
,
making
hast
by
signes
,
that
the
supper
were
made
readie
,
for
that
〈◊〉
were
veris
colde
and
hungerie
.
So
that
when
their
●●●ison
and
other
meate
was
roasted
,
all
these
company
of
barbarous
people
did
set
themselues
vpon
the
ground
round
about
their
vittailes
,
and
began
to
teare
it
in
péeces
with
their
handes
,
and
to
eate
with
lustie
courages
.
The
chiefe
captaine
of
them
,
gaue
vnto
these
knights
of
the
Uenison
for
their
parts
,
who
at
that
present
made
little
account
of
the
great
abundance
that
they
were
wont
to
haue
,
at
the
Emperour
Alicandro
his
table
,
and
at
the
feasts
of
the
Emprour
Trebatio
,
but
fell
vnto
their
vittailes
with
tooth
and
naile
:
Yet
that
supper
had
cost
them
very
déere
,
if
that
the
soueraigne
creator
had
not
remembred
them
.
For
that
in
the
best
and
chiefest
time
of
their
supper
,
when
most
contentment
these
perfect
friends
receiued
,
two
of
these
barbarous
Tartarians
dissembling
to
serue
the
rest
,
arose
vp
from
their
companie
,
and
toke
eche
of
them
a
mightie
great
and
heauie
clubbe
,
which
they
vsed
for
their
weapon
,
&
very
softly
without
making
any
noyse
,
they
came
behinde
the
two
knights
,
&
with
all
their
sorce
&
strength
of
both
their
hands
,
they
discharged
their
blowes
vpon
these
two
knights
,
which
did
astonish
them
,
that
they
were
out
of
all
remembrance
,
&
fell
presently
to
the
ground
,
whereas
they
moued
neither
hand
nor
foote
,
but
lay
as
though
they
had
bene
dead
.
Then
these
barbarous
Tartarians
arose
vp
alogether
and
came
for
to
vnarnie
them
,
verie
glad
for
that
which
they
had
done
:
but
for
that
they
had
no
experience
in
armour
,
and
neuer
before
had
vnlased
anie
,
in
more
then
a
quarter
of
an
houre
there
was
not
one
of
them
,
that
could
lose
anie
péece
therof
,
nor
knew
not
where
nor
which
waie
to
begin
,
but
tumbling
〈◊〉
rounde
about
from
one
place
vnto
an
other
,
vewing
of
all
partes
,
but
yet
were
they
neuer
the
nearer
,
in
which
time
the
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
receuing
aire
,
was
wholie
come
to
himselfe
,
&
of
perfect
rememberaunce
,
&
considering
in
what
state
they
were
brought
,
with
a
trice
,
in
spite
of
all
those
barbarous
people
that
did
hold
him
,
he
arose
vppon
his
féete
,
and
finding
by
him
his
good
sworde
(
which
was
the
best
in
all
the
world
,
and
that
which
hée
won
of
the
Prince
Meridian
)
he
tooke
〈◊〉
both
his
hands
,
and
stroke
such
a
blow
at
him
that
〈◊〉
,
that
he
cut
him
a
sunder
by
the
wast
,
that
the
two
partes
fell
the
one
from
the
other
,
dead
to
the
ground
,
&
ther
with
he
stroke
at
an
other
that
was
vnarming
of
Oristedes
,
that
his
right
arme
with
the
whole
quarter
of
the
body
he
made
flie
to
the
earth
,
not
staying
with
that
,
but
with
great
courage
and
furie
,
he
put
himselfe
amongst
the
thickest
of
them
,
wounding
and
killing
all
that
he
might
fasten
blows
vpon
:
but
these
Tartarians
,
recouering
their
clubbes
,
with
loude
cryings
they
did
assault
him
on
euerie
syd
,
charging
him
with
mightie
and
terrible
blowes
,
but
by
reason
that
they
were
cleane
without
armour
,
and
this
valiant
and
stoute
knight
,
in
the
heate
of
his
furie
,
in
short
speace
,
by
kiling
of
some
,
and
wounding
of
other
some
,
the
rest
ranne
awaie
,
for
feare
of
his
mortal
blowes
:
so
that
not
one
of
all
these
barbarous
Tartarians
did
remaine
in
sight
.
This
being
concluded
,
he
was
going
towards
his
friend
the
Troyan
Oristedes
,
for
to
succour
him
,
who
at
that
instant
was
come
vnto
himselfe
,
and
with
great
courage
and
furie
,
he
arose
vp
,
thinking
that
his
enimies
hadde
bene
there
still
:
but
loking
about
for
them
and
seing
so
manie
slaine
,
and
none
in
presence
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
great
ioye
and
pleasure
he
went
vnto
him
,
&
embracing
him
with
great
loue
he
saide
:
now
am
I
fullie
certified
and
perswaded
,
(
worthie
and
valiant
knight
)
that
the
high
mightie
&
soueraigne
gods
haue
not
forgot
you
,
but
haue
great
and
speciall
care
of
your
great
valour
,
the
which
is
made
maniefest
vnto
me
,
in
the
preuenting
of
this
present
perill
,
otherwise
this
supper
had
bene
full
dere
vnto
me
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
embracing
of
him
saide
.
The
liuing
god
,
who
knoweth
the
secret
of
all
things
,
would
not
consent
that
so
worthie
a
knight
as
you
are
,
should
be
slaine
by
so
great
●reason
.
And
his
pleasure
was
,
for
to
deliuer
mée
by
his
bountifull
goodnesse
,
whereby
I
should
make
defence
to
saue
vs
both
from
so
great
rebuke
and
shame
.
And
now
seeing
that
here
is
none
for
to
disturbe
vs
:
Let
vs
sit
downe
and
make
an
ende
of
our
supper
,
and
take
our
rest
here
till
to
morow
morning
.
Let
it
be
as
you
doe
commaund
,
saide
Oristedes
,
séeing
that
here
is
none
to
trouble
vs
:
therwith
these
two
good
companions
did
sette
them selues
downe
,
and
did
eate
of
the
vittailes
that
was
there
,
till
they
were
satisfied
.
But
yet
they
durst
not
sléepe
all
the
night
,
fearing
that
those
Tartarians
,
which
fled
awaie
would
being
some
other
of
their
companions
&
trouble
them
,
so
that
they
passed
awaie
that
night
in
walking
rounde
about
the
fire
,
discoursing
of
that
wherein
they
receued
most
content
,
alwaies
haueing
an
eye
vnto
the
maine
chaunce
,
least
any
should
come
vpon
them
on
a
s●daiue
.
But
they
might
verie
well
haue
taken
their
ease
without
anie
care
,
for
that
those
which
were
fled
awaie
were
so
scarred
with
the
mightie
great
and
terrible
blowes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
they
thought
it
not
for
the
best
to
retourne
backe
againe
,
and
although
they
were
fled
verie
far
,
yet
did
not
they
thinke
themselues
in
anie
securitie
.
So
when
the
daie
was
come
these
two
knights
did
bridell
their
horses
,
and
mounting
vppon
their
backes
they
departed
from
that
place
,
&
after
trauailed
manie
daies
vppon
the
skirt
of
the
mount
Tauro
,
wherein
chaunced
vnto
them
manie
notable
aduentures
,
the
which
the
auctor
doth
omit
for
to
make
briefe
conclusion
of
this
first
part
,
but
the
Historie
saith
,
that
after
great
trauaile
&
strange
aduentures
which
happened
vnto
them
in
this
iourney
:
in
the
ende
they
came
vnto
the
distroyed
Troy
,
whereof
Oristedes
was
Lorde
,
whereas
they
did
repose
and
take
their
restes
many
daies
:
In
the
ende
whereof
it
was
agréed
betwixt
them
,
not
to
soiourne
there
any
longer
,
but
from
thence
to
embarke
themselues
for
the
Empire
of
Grecia
:
they
straight
waies
commaunded
to
rig
a
ship
that
was
in
the
port
of
Tenedon
,
and
to
make
her
readie
wel
furnished
with
all
things
necessarie
,
wherein
they
determined
to
make
their
voiage
.
So
being
all
furnished
and
readie
to
depart
,
they
put
them selues
within
the
ship
,
their
sailes
were
hoysed
,
&
the
maister
directed
his
ship
towards
Grecia
,
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
thought
for
to
finde
the
Princes
Claridiana
,
hauing
her
beautie
so
printed
within
his
brest
,
that
he
thought
euerie
daie
a
whole
yéere
,
till
he
came
vnto
her
presence
.
Here
the
Historie
doth
leaue
these
two
companions
sayling
on
the
Sea
,
for
to
retourne
to
tell
you
what
happened
to
the
Princes
the
time
that
the
remained
in
her
empire
of
Trapisonda
.
How
the
Emprisse
Claridiana
,
being
in
her
Empire
of
Trapisonda
,
there
ariued
her
Damsell
Arcania
,
and
declared
vnto
her
the
newes
of
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
which
brought
her
almost
to
the
point
of
death
.
Chap.
5.
WIth
no
lesse
care
then
desire
for
to
heare
newes
of
the
knight
of
the
Snime
,
remained
this
soueraigne
Emprisse
Claridiana
,
in
her
Empire
of
Trapisonda
,
which
time
séemed
vnto
her
so
long
,
that
ther
entred
into
her
heart
no
kinde
of
ioy
nor
pleasure
,
although
she
did
exercise
her selfe
in
hunting
,
and
feates
of
armes
,
procuring
to
put
away
the
pensiuenesse
of
her
thought
,
but
nothing
would
serue
,
to
put
the
remembraunce
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
one
minute
of
an
houre
out
of
her
minde
.
And
there
was
nothing
so
acceptable
vnto
her
as
solitarinesse
,
the
better
to
vse
her
conceit
in
thinking
on
him
,
alwaies
wishing
that
the
daie
were
come
that
the
might
s●e
him
.
And
as
she
was
one
morning
in
hir
chamber
at
such
time
as
the
Sunne
did
spred
abroade
her
beames
,
out
from
the
Orient
,
vpon
the
whole
Earth
,
she
addressed
her
face
the
way
beholding
the
Sunne
,
&
with
a
pittiful
sigh
which
proceeded
from
the
bottome
of
her
heart
,
she
said
.
Oh
beames
of
the
selestial
Febo
,
which
commeth
from
the
place
wher
as
my
heart
is
fixed
,
Oh
that
I
were
now
in
thy
celestiall
course
&
mouings
,
that
I
might
euerie
daie
sée
him
whome
you
doe
sée
&
beholde
.
Oh
that
the
diuine
prouidence
were
so
pleased
,
that
I
might
now
haue
some
newes
brought
from
him
,
wherewith
my
soule
should
receue
no
lesse
ioy
then
the
immortal
soules
,
which
doe
comfort
themselues
continuallie
in
thy
diuine
presence
.
Oh
that
I
were
fullie
certified
,
that
he
were
now
beholding
the
brightnesse
of
the
Sunne
with
his
eies
,
as
I
doe
with
mine
,
which
thing
alone
would
be
some
comfort
,
&
giue
me
in
part
ease
of
this
great
sorow
the
which
I
doe
féele
,
wherof
his
absence
is
the
onely
occasion
.
Oh
you
inuisible
and
swift
windes
that
commeth
from
the
Oriental
Heauens
,
blow
some
comfort
into
these
my
eyes
,
if
that
peraduenture
with
your
face
you
haue
disperied
abroad
any
of
his
golden
locks
,
Oh
what
comfort
&
pleasure
should
it
be
vnto
mée
,
if
that
I
were
fully
certified
that
you
did
encounter
with
him
.
Oh
you
cleare
and
resplendant
lights
celestiall
,
whose
course
doth
compasse
round
about
the
whole
world
,
Oh
that
I
had
in
one
of
you
mine
eyes
fixed
,
that
I
might
with
great
ease
,
behold
the
valour
of
my
knight
.
How
swift
should
those
celestiall
mouings
seeme
vnto
mée
at
their
departure
,
and
how
short
should
your
returne
seme
to
the
contrarie
.
Oh
happie
countrie
of
the
Scitas
,
that
the
valiant
and
worthie
déedes
of
such
a
knight
doth
deserue
to
sée
,
and
happie
Princesse
that
had
so
much
power
for
to
carie
him
out
of
my
presence
.
Oh
Princesse
of
the
Scitas
,
how
manie
daies
,
nights
and
houres
,
hast
thou
enioyed
the
sight
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Suffer
now
pacience
,
if
that
he
doe
depart
from
thée
to
come
and
sée
mée
.
Consider
that
God
hath
not
created
mée
of
so
base
and
vnséemely
beautie
amongst
all
other
ladies
and
damsells
,
but
that
I
should
deserue
the
knight
of
most
valiancie
,
amongst
all
other
knights
.
Oh
that
I
were
now
fullie
certified
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
were
departed
out
of
thy
presence
,
there
is
nothing
in
all
the
world
that
could
giue
mée
so
great
contentment
.
This
and
manie
wordes
more
like
in
effect
,
did
this
Empresse
vtter
,
making
her
complaint
,
euerie
morning
when
she
did
sée
the
Sunne
to
appeare
in
the
Orient
,
and
at
night
when
as
she
saw
the
Moone
and
the
Starres
,
where
in
manie
times
she
did
contemplate
her selfe
,
immagening
that
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
did
likewise
behold
them
.
Likewise
,
manie
times
her
immagination
was
occupied
with
suspection
,
that
the
great
beautie
of
the
princesse
Lindabrides
,
with
the
continuall
conuersation
hadde
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
should
be
an
occasion
by
the
force
therof
,
to
bring
him
in
such
captiuitie
,
that
forgetting
all
other
,
he
should
remaine
in
her
presence
for
euer
.
And
hauing
this
in
her
remembrauance
,
was
the
occasion
of
great
sorow
,
and
to
shed
from
her
christalline
eyes
great
aboundance
of
teares
,
watering
all
her
faire
face
and
rubicond
chéekes
.
Yet
otherwaies
to
the
contrarie
,
she
did
comfort
her selfe
,
when
that
she
called
to
remembraunce
the
word
and
promise
that
her
knight
had
made
vnto
her
,
and
saide
within
her selfe
,
that
he
could
not
be
of
so
small
discretion
and
lacke
of
reason
and
vnderstanding
,
to
forget
her
for
any
other
Ladie
in
all
the
world
,
and
in
especiall
,
the
Princesse
being
a
Pagan
,
and
he
a
Christian
:
so
that
in
this
and
in
other
diuers
and
contrarie
thoughts
,
did
the
Empresse
Claridiana
occupie
her selfe
,
looking
euerie
daie
when
that
she
should
heare
some
newes
from
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
of
his
returne
.
In
all
this
time
the
Damsell
Arcania
,
did
not
foreslow
her selfe
,
but
with
great
care
and
hast
,
trauailed
,
with
desire
for
to
come
vnto
her
Ladie
the
Princes
Claridiana
,
to
declare
vnto
her
the
whole
course
of
the
disloialtie
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
one
that
was
ignorant
of
all
that
succeded
afterward
,
but
beleuing
for
truth
that
he
had
bene
married
to
the
princesse
Lindabrides
.
And
so
not
happening
vnto
her
anie
thing
in
her
iourney
that
might
disturbe
her
:
in
the
end
of
certayne
daies
after
her
departure
from
the
gran
Cataio
,
she
ariued
at
the
Empire
of
Trapisonda
,
and
she
vnderstanding
howe
that
the
Emperour
was
dead
,
and
how
that
her
Ladie
was
crowned
Empresse
of
Trapisonda
,
she
directed
her
iourney
thetherwards
,
&
came
thether
at
such
time
as
the
Empresse
was
most
desirous
to
heare
newes
of
her
knight
,
because
his
tarying
was
so
long
,
thinking
euerie
daie
to
bée
one
whole
yéere
.
So
when
that
Arcania
came
into
the
Citie
,
she
went
straight
waies
towards
the
roiall
pallace
,
&
entered
in
thereat
,
at
such
time
as
the
Empresse
was
all
alone
in
her
closet
,
occupied
with
no
other
thing
,
but
with
her
continual
anguish
and
sorrowful
thoughts
,
who
being
certefied
of
her
solitarinesse
,
made
no
more
adoe
but
entered
into
her
closet
,
&
shut
the
doore
after
her
,
and
comming
before
the
Empresse
,
fell
downe
vpon
her
knées
,
and
craued
her
handes
to
kisse
them
,
with
so
great
abundance
of
teares
that
distiled
from
her
eies
,
that
she
had
not
the
power
to
speake
one
word
.
The
Empresse
séeing
her
on
such
a
sodaine
to
enter
in
,
shée
was
greatlie
ameruailed
,
and
went
and
embraced
her
,
saying
.
Ah
Arcania
,
the
true
&
faithful
secretarie
of
all
my
secrets
,
what
sodaine
comming
is
this
of
thine
,
that
maketh
me
so
much
amazed
and
astonied
.
How
is
it
that
thou
commest
alone
,
and
lefte
the
companie
of
him
that
thou
wentest
withall
,
where
hast
thou
left
my
knight
,
tell
me
whether
he
bée
come
into
this
Countrie
or
not
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
in
this
world
that
at
this
present
can
giue
me
more
content
or
ioy
vnto
my
hart
:
tell
me
out
of
hand
some
newes
of
him
,
make
no
tarrying
,
for
that
euerie
moment
séemeth
to
me
one
whole
yéere
of
thy
delating
.
The
sorrow
and
griefe
the
which
Arcania
had
(
for
those
heauie
newes
that
she
should
giue
vnto
her
Ladie
)
was
such
,
that
●he
could
doe
no
other
thing
but
wéepe
,
and
was
not
able
to
speake
one
word
,
the
which
being
well
considered
by
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
it
brought
her
into
the
greatest
perpleritie
and
sorrow
that
euer
shée
was
in
,
in
all
her
life
,
suspecting
the
euill
newes
that
she
brought
,
for
that
she
was
so
long
in
declaring
them
vnto
her
.
And
hauing
not
the
heart
to
suffer
any
longer
,
but
shedding
great
abundance
of
teares
wherewith
she
did
all
to
be
bathe
her
face
,
she
burst
out
and
said
.
Oh
high
,
mightie
,
and
immortall
God
,
creator
of
all
the
worlde
,
what
is
this
,
that
Arcania
maketh
so
long
dela●e
,
in
telling
vnto
mée
her
newes
:
if
they
be
anie
that
appertaineth
vnto
my
long
hope
&
desired
pleasure
,
let
me
heare
them
.
But
oh
vaine
hope
of
men
,
how
can
any
of
vs
liue
but
in
great
feare
,
séeing
that
so
many
waies
and
times
we
are
deceited
by
you
,
with
sodaine
and
vnlooked
for
doubts
:
Alas
,
what
is
he
dead
?
he
,
that
onely
the
hope
that
I
had
to
sée
him
;
did
sustaine
my
whole
life
?
As
all
humaine
creatures
hath
their
humours
,
and
there
is
none
that
liueth
but
euery
houre
are
subiect
vnto
a
thousand
euills
and
misfortunes
,
and
the
least
of
them
all
suffiseth
to
cause
death
.
In
the
high
Firmament
is
congeled
Thunderboults
againste
humaine
creatures
,
the
waters
doth
swell
by
force
of
raine
,
the
windes
doth
combat
and
cause
earthquakes
,
the
depthes
of
the
Seas
doe
roare
,
by
force
that
they
doe
receiue
,
and
hoyse
the
ships
at
times
,
vp
vnto
the
heauens
,
and
straight
waies
downe
vnto
the
depth
of
the
waters
.
The
earth
which
séemeth
vnto
vs
to
be
in
securitie
,
is
full
of
perills
,
vpon
the
face
therof
the
terrible
lightnings
and
thunderbolts
hath
their
courses
.
Likewise
the
déepe
and
profound
Riuers
doth
excéede
their
limits
.
Upon
the
earth
is
ouerthrowen
and
doth
fall
the
mightie
Mountaines
and
Rockes
,
wherein
doth
happen
great
diseases
.
Horses
doth
make
their
course
y●
one
against
the
other
,
at
whose
encounters
their
riders
be
ouerthrowen
:
men
trauailing
quietly
by
the
way
,
vpon
a
sodaine
and
vnlooked
for
,
are
beset
and
ouerpressed
with
théeues
&
robbers
.
The
furious
Tyger
&
cruell
Lions
,
the
huge
Elephant
and
fearce
Griffens
,
vnmercifull
dragons
and
Basilists
,
with
a
thousand
kinde
of
wilde
beasts
&
Serpents
,
that
liueth
vpon
the
earth
,
what
mortal
man
is
he
that
is
not
afraide
of
them
,
as
being
the
occasion
that
they
haue
not
their
liues
in
anie
securitie
.
Alas
,
what
shall
I
say
,
if
any
of
all
these
misfortunes
,
●auigating
by
Sea
,
or
trauailing
by
land
,
hath
chaunsed
vnto
the
flower
of
all
Knighthood
,
that
my
Damsel
Arcania
,
is
afraide
to
vtter
it
,
and
hath
no
tongue
to
speake
.
But
alas
,
I
suppose
that
none
of
all
these
perills
hath
chaunced
vnto
him
,
but
considering
that
the
world
is
great
and
wide
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
hath
trauailed
through
many
countries
&
landes
,
and
it
cannot
be
otherwise
but
that
he
hath
had
the
sight
of
many
faire
Ladies
and
damsels
,
that
theyr
presence
hath
bene
the
occasion
to
put
mée
cleane
out
of
his
:
remembraunce
.
And
wen
there
were
no
other
but
the
princesse
Lindabrides
,
daughter
vnto
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
of
the
gran
Tartaria
,
in
whome
the
soueraigne
creator
,
hath
bestowed
so
great
beautie
&
grace
,
that
she
alone
were
sufficient
with
her
presence
to
cause
the
empres
Claridiana
,
to
be
forgotten
.
This
faire
Empresse
séeing
these
and
many
other
words
of
great
dolour
,
wherewith
her
thought
was
troubled
,
she
●une
vnto
her
Damsel
Arcania
,
and
embrasing
her
,
said
.
Ah
my
louing
and
faithful
Arcania
,
make
an
ende
and
declare
vnto
mée
this
sorowfull
newes
,
for
that
thy
delaying
doth
cause
vnto
mée
mortall
griefe
.
But
Arcania
durst
not
declare
vnto
her
that
sorowful
and
heauie
newes
,
for
that
she
knew
the
great
griefe
that
would
procéede
thereof
:
but
yet
she
was
so
much
importuned
,
that
in
the
ende
she
was
constrained
to
vtter
it
,
who
began
as
followeth
.
Ah
my
Ladie
and
Emprisse
,
I
would
(
if
that
God
were
so
pleased
)
that
this
newes
that
I
doe
bring
you
,
were
of
the
death
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
how
that
the
vnmerciful
waues
of
the
Sea
had
swallowed
him
vp
,
or
else
how
that
the
ground
had
opened
and
he
consumed
therein
.
For
if
that
it
had
happened
in
this
sort
,
then
should
you
haue
no
occassion
to
complain
of
him
.
But
alas
,
he
is
wel
&
in
good
health
,
wheras
the
sight
of
an
other
ladie
hath
made
him
captiue
,
&
al
your
loue
forgotten
,
that
the
recouerie
is
without
remedie
.
For
after
our
departure
out
of
Grecia
,
til
we
came
to
the
gran
Cataio
,
the
knight
of
the
Sun
neuer
left
the
princes
Lindabrides
,
insomuch
that
her
great
beautie
&
continual
conuersation
wrought
such
effect
within
his
heart
,
that
you
were
cleane
blotted
out
of
his
remembraunce
,
and
the
promise
that
he
made
vnto
you
cleane
forgotten
:
so
that
in
the
way
of
our
trauaile
,
he
did
offer
himselfe
whollie
vnto
her
,
intreating
of
loue
,
and
made
her
prontise
that
so
soone
as
they
should
come
vnto
the
Gran
Cataia
,
he
would
marrie
her
,
the
which
promise
,
she
did
accept
,
by
reason
whereof
she
did
make
her
defence
,
till
such
time
as
they
came
vnto
the
court
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
where
as
they
were
with
great
pompe
and
maiestie
receued
.
So
the
daie
of
the
marriage
being
appointed
,
all
the
nobles
of
the
land
were
called
and
assembled
together
,
and
for
the
space
of
twentie
daies
that
I
was
there
,
they
gaue
themselues
to
no
other
thing
but
to
bankets
and
feasting
,
for
the
marriage
of
the
Princesse
,
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
so
high
and
wonderfull
feates
of
armes
,
that
his
fame
will
neuer
be
forgotten
in
that
countrie
.
To
conclude
,
I
séeing
that
the
time
was
short
and
at
hande
,
for
the
celebrating
of
the
marriage
,
with
great
sorow
and
griefe
I
departed
from
thence
,
and
made
so
great
haste
as
possible
I
could
,
for
to
come
hether
to
giue
you
to
vnderstand
thereof
.
So
when
that
the
Empresse
Claridiana
had
heard
these
newes
of
so
great
dolour
and
griefe
,
and
vnderstoode
the
whole
effect
thereof
,
there
was
no
paine
,
torment
&
griefe
that
might
be
compared
vnto
hers
at
that
present
,
neither
was
there
any
sufficiencie
in
her
heroicall
and
baliant
courage
(
wherewith
she
did
quaile
&
ouercome
those
terrible
guards
of
the
Princesse
,
Elisea
)
for
to
suffer
and
to
dissemble
so
cruel
,
contrarie
,
and
peruerst
fortune
,
but
that
losing
the
vse
of
her
remembraunce
,
(
as
one
past
all
hope
)
she
fell
in
a
sownd
in
the
armes
of
her
Damsell
Arcanie
,
whereas
she
remained
more
then
one
whole
houre
,
before
she
came
againe
vnto
her selfe
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
Arcania
who
did
helpe
her
,
thought
verelie
that
she
was
dead
altogether
,
and
did
repent
her selfe
that
euer
she
did
declare
vnto
her
those
heauie
newes
.
In
the
ende
,
the
Princes
came
againe
somewhat
vnto
her selfe
,
who
in
mortall
anguish
did
yeald
out
:
from
her
troubled
breast
such
cruell
sighes
,
as
though
her
life
would
follow
after
,
then
she
began
to
saie
as
followeth
.
Oh
high
and
soueraigne
maiestie
,
how
is
it
that
your
diuine
maiestie
doth
permit
and
suffer
,
that
your
Empresse
Claridiana
should
receiue
so
great
treason
,
and
especiallie
of
him
,
whom
in
al
the
world
she
best
loued
.
Oh
false
and
traiterous
knight
,
now
am
I
fullie
certified
or
the
occasion
of
thy
long
tarrying
,
and
thy
dispitefull
wordes
and
promises
are
manifest
vnto
me
,
as
also
who
doth
detaine
thée
:
Oh
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
what
mist
of
darknesse
hath
daseled
thy
eyes
,
that
the
sight
of
the
princesse
Lindabrides
could
so
bleare
and
blot
out
of
thy
memorie
the
figure
of
Claridiana
.
Be
these
the
effect
of
thy
amorous
words
which
thou
vtteredst
vnto
me
comming
by
sea
from
Lidia
,
and
the
fained
teares
that
thou
diddest
impart
with
me
.
How
oftentimes
diddest
thou
desire
me
for
to
receue
thée
to
be
mine
,
&
after
that
I
offered
my selfe
to
be
thine
:
consider
of
thy
promise
made
vnto
mée
,
the
which
now
thou
hast
vtterlie
falsified
and
broken
.
If
thou
haddest
well
considered
(
O
thou
traitor
)
who
I
was
,
&
how
that
my
desert
is
without
comparison
,
thou
wouldest
neuer
haue
changed
me
for
anie
other
,
and
that
which
séemeth
vnto
me
to
be
without
reason
is
,
that
thou
hast
matched
with
one
that
is
not
of
thy
lawe
and
faith
:
What
was
become
of
thy
wits
,
and
where
was
thy
vnderstanding
,
that
thou
diddest
not
see
and
consider
,
how
much
thou
hast
offended
the
soueraigne
creator
with
that
marriage
,
and
how
worthie
thou
art
of
punishment
,
in
committing
of
such
wretched
sin
.
I
doe
not
now
much
meruaile
,
that
thou
hast
not
kept
thy
word
and
faith
with
me
,
when
thou
hast
not
kept
thy
faith
with
the
liuing
God
,
neither
doe
I
meruaile
at
the
committing
of
so
great
sinne
,
for
that
not
long
since
,
thou
fainedlie
diddest
take
the
name
to
be
a
Christian
,
the
which
I
doe
suspect
thou
hast
reiected
and
denied
.
And
the
better
to
bring
thy
pupose
to
effect
,
thou
doest
publish
thy selfe
to
be
a
Pagan
.
Oh
that
the
wrath
of
the
diuine
iustice
might
now
descend
vpon
thée
,
and
the
burning
lightnings
and
thunder
engendered
in
the
high
clowves
,
might
make
reuengement
on
thée
,
for
thy
great
tniurie
shewed
.
Oh
that
thy
misfortune
had
be●e
such
,
that
thou
haddest
fallen
into
some
of
those
perills
and
dangers
,
that
I
suspected
to
chaunce
to
thée
,
or
else
that
thou
hadst
died
with
some
sodaine
&
vnlooked
for
death
.
What
cruell
death
,
punishment
,
or
euill
fortune
,
might
bée
conformable
vnto
thy
desert
,
in
committing
so
great
an
error
.
There
is
nothing
that
grieueth
me
so
much
,
as
that
thou
wert
the
floure
of
all
knights
,
and
being
gone
,
there
is
not
in
all
the
world
that
is
worthie
of
my
excellencie
:
&
although
I
am
not
married
,
yet
doe
I
remaine
a
widow
,
&
the
greater
my
griefe
,
to
sée
him
the
which
I
thought
should
haue
ben
my
husband
,
in
the
power
of
another
.
Oh
fortune
,
how
contrarie
haue
you
bene
vnto
me
,
in
that
you
haue
giuen
me
so
great
beautie
and
soueraigne
dignitie
.
If
thou
haddest
created
me
foule
,
euill
fauoured
,
and
of
base
birth
,
then
had
not
the
one
bene
occasion
of
my
pardition
,
neither
the
other
had
reason
for
to
destroie
me
.
If
that
my
singuler
beautie
&
highnesse
were
not
,
I
might
put
remedie
in
my
great
griefe
,
as
Ariadne
that
was
left
of
Theseus
,
and
Medea
forgotten
of
Iason
.
But
who
is
there
now
in
all
the
world
,
with
whom
I
may
make
change
of
so
faithfull
loue
?
What
woman
is
there
in
all
the
world
,
that
euer
felt
so
great
griefe
for
loue
?
Trulie
there
is
no
comparison
to
be
made
vnto
mine
:
no
not
that
of
Deyamir●
,
whom
Hercules
changed
for
Yo
le
,
nor
that
of
Penelope
for
Vlysses
,
nor
of
Phillis
for
Demophoon
.
Let
not
that
be
spoken
of
Io
,
that
was
conuerted
by
Iupiter
to
a
cowe
,
and
presented
vnto
Iuno
,
and
that
of
Biblis
,
that
followed
that
cruell
Cadmo
.
Neither
may
be
compared
that
of
Tisbe
and
Pr●amus
,
nor
of
the
Queene
Dido
that
built
Carthage
,
for
Aeneas
.
Great
reason
had
Gero
for
to
bewaile
her
welbeloued
Leander
,
when
she
sawe
him
drowned
and
laie
vpon
the
sandes
of
the
huge
riuer
,
but
yet
comfort
thy selfe
with
mée
,
for
that
thy
great
dolour
and
griefe
should
I
receiue
for
glorie
,
if
that
I
did
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
to
die
for
my
loue
,
and
with
a
great
deale
more
spéede
than
Gero
,
would
I
beare
him
companie
in
death
.
Comfort
thy selfe
with
me
than
Gofreda
,
which
was
the
occasion
of
his
death
that
loued
her
best
.
And
if
that
File
and
Laudonia
,
were
comforted
with
their
sodaine
deathes
:
Com●ort
your selfe
with
me
,
by
the
euil
fortunes
of
locasta
,
whose
misfortunes
were
such
as
was
not
in
the
whole
worlde
to
be
compared
,
yet
may
it
not
be
compared
vnto
mine
.
Oh
fortunate
Eucuba
,
and
soueraigne
Quéene
,
who
alonely
remained
for
to
sée
the
sorowfull
sight
of
the
destruction
of
Troy
,
and
the
death
of
thy
husband
,
and
valiant
sonnes
and
fai●e
daughters
:
and
after
for
the
same
cause
,
thou
wert
of
thy
enimies
stoned
to
death
:
Comfort
thy selfe
with
my
misfortune
,
for
that
it
is
not
lesse
dolorous
then
thine
.
Oh
Sophonis
be
Queene
of
Numidia
,
who
being
with
thy
husbande
prisoners
in
the
power
of
thy
enimie
,
and
being
comforted
to
marrie
with
him
,
first
before
that
thy
marriage
was
selebrated
,
thou
wert
slaine
by
poision
:
I
consider
with
great
griefe
,
thine
not
to
be
equall
vnto
mine
,
for
that
thou
diddest
lack
time
to
acknowledge
thy
hurt
,
&
in
me
it
remaines
for
to
suffer
so
great
griefe
.
Oh
Cornelia
,
wise
vnto
Crasso
,
&
of
that
mightie
Pompey
of
Rome
banished
with
thy
husband
,
lette
our
sorowes
be
ioyned
together
,
when
that
with
great
hope
for
to
sée
thy
Pompey
thou
wert
lost
,
and
wert
comforted
by
Cato
Vticense
.
Happie
werte
thou
Cleopat●a
Quéene
of
Aegipt
,
séeing
that
thou
werte
forgotten
by
Caesar
,
in
so
short
space
,
thou
diddest
quench
so
great
a
fire
,
thy
faire
breasts
béeing
drawen
or
sucked
by
Snakes
,
till
such
time
as
they
sucked
thy
bloud
,
which
made
an
ende
of
thée
.
Oh
how
pleasant
should
thy
death
be
vnto
mée
,
(
if
that
in
the
seruice
of
God
so
great
crueltie
might
be
permitted
.
)
I
should
thinke
my selfe
happie
,
if
that
the
bloud
of
my
brestes
with
those
cruell
Snakes
,
were
drawen
out
,
so
that
ioyntly
therewith
,
the
furious
anguish
of
my
heart
should
be
expelled
.
Oh
pittifull
tears
of
Licurgus
,
for
thy
Arquimoro
,
and
those
of
Atalante
,
for
her
Partenopio
,
how
farre
doe
mine
excéede
yours
,
and
with
much
more
iust
cause
I
doe
shedde
them
.
Oh
falce
and
disloyall
knight
,
what
reason
coulde
constraine
thée
to
falsifie
and
break
thy
worde
&
promise
giuen
to
be
whollie
mine
.
It
appeareth
that
thou
dost
follow
the
law
Gentilica
,
of
the
god
Mercurio
,
that
doth
not
obserue
&
kéepe
their
woord
:
they
say
that
it
is
more
polesie
then
disceit
.
Oh
how
I
doe
know
now
to
be
true
,
that
there
is
nothing
so
difficil
to
be
vnderstoode
,
as
the
humaine
heart
.
Who
would
euer
haue
thought
that
so
great
crueltie
and
disloyaltie
might
be
comprehended
in
a
knight
that
doth
surpas
all
other
knights
in
the
worlde
.
What
man
hath
bene
in
the
world
so
cruell
and
peruerst
,
as
thou
(
traitour
)
hast
bene
vnto
mée
,
of
truth
none
:
no
,
not
Iupiter
,
god
of
the
Gentiles
,
whome
thou
dost
worship
,
that
banished
out
of
his
kingdome
his
Father
,
the
king
Saturno
.
Neither
that
Ptolomeo
king
of
Egipt
,
that
slewe
his
owne
father
&
brother
,
and
in
the
ende
,
his
wife
Euridice
,
onely
for
the
loue
of
his
friendes
.
Orestes
was
not
so
cruel
that
slew
his
mother
Clitemnestra
,
nor
Nero
for
Agripina
,
nor
Antipater
for
Thesalonica
,
nor
Theseus
for
Hipolito
,
nor
Phelipo
for
Demetrius
,
nor
Constantine
Emperour
of
the
Romances
,
for
his
son
Chrisippo
,
nor
Marco
Ca●taginense
,
that
did
crucifie
his
sonne
Cartalon
,
neither
that
Phaces
king
of
Parcia
,
the
most
peruerst
of
all
kings
,
who
slew
Herodes
his
olde
and
afflicted
father
,
with
thirtie
of
his
bretheren
,
and
his
onely
sonne
:
nor
any
whatsoeuer
,
that
hath
bene
cruell
in
the
world
,
so
cruel
as
y●
knight
of
the
Sunne
hath
bene
vnto
Claridiana
:
for
vnto
them
was
giuen
the
death
,
and
afterward
they
felt
nothing
,
so
that
their
crueltie
was
but
in
slaying
of
them
,
but
this
is
more
crueltie
vnto
mée
then
the
death
,
for
that
from
hence
forth
,
I
shall
wish
to
die
,
because
I
deserue
not
to
liue
,
for
to
féele
so
cruell
griefe
and
paine
.
How
can
I
liuing
,
suffer
one
moment
so
great
dolour
,
to
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
the
power
of
an
other
Ladie
.
Oh
that
he
were
now
in
this
countrie
,
surely
I
would
be
slaine
in
battaile
with
him
,
or
else
his
great
disloyaltie
should
be
reuenged
by
mée
.
In
saying
these
words
,
the
Empresse
Claridiana
her
sorow
was
so
great
that
she
receued
,
that
many
times
she
fell
in
a
sound
in
the
armes
of
Arca●sia
,
and
all
the
comfortable
wordes
which
she
spoke
vnto
her
,
were
not
sufficient
in
anie
point
to
appease
her
great
griefe
,
and
certaintie
guish
&
dolour
was
so
great
,
that
it
cannot
be
imagined
that
the
griefe
of
anie
woman
whom
she
haue
named
,
might
be
compared
vnto
hers
,
for
as
in
wisedome
,
reason
,
and
discretion
,
with
soueraigne
bountie
and
highnesse
,
she
doth
exceede
all
other
in
the
world
,
euen
so
is
her
griefe
the
more
,
and
the
greater
reason
she
hath
to
complaine
,
for
that
she
knowing
to
be
without
comparison
in
beautie
&
estate
,
with
all
other
excellent
gifts
that
should
be
in
a
noble
Ladie
,
and
hauing
set
her
minde
vpon
the
knight
of
the
Sun
(
as
one
that
alonlie
did
deserue
her
)
and
now
to
sée
her selfe
forgotten
&
changed
for
another
,
not
leauing
in
all
the
worlde
anie
conformable
vnto
her
highnesse
,
with
whom
she
might
marrie
,
so
that
she
desired
no
other
thing
but
to
die
the
death
,
for
to
euitate
the
suffering
of
so
great
euill
,
and
from
that
daie
forwards
her
life
was
cleane
changed
ouer
that
it
was
before
,
neither
did
she
exercise
her selfe
in
armour
nor
〈◊〉
hun●ing
,
as
at
other
times
,
but
as
one
that
was
past
all
hope
euer
to
be
marrried
,
and
as
a
widowe
,
she
spent
her
time
in
her
closet
all
alone
,
occupying
her selfe
alwaies
in
praier
,
leading
the
lyfe
more
of
a
religious
woman
,
than
of
so
high
a
Ladie
as
shée
was
,
alwaies
waiting
the
comming
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
for
to
be
reuenged
on
him
.
Whereas
the
Historie
doth
leaue
her
,
for
to
tell
you
of
Rosicleer
that
was
sailing
by
sea
with
the
Princesse
Oliuia
.
How
Rosicleer
carried
the
Princesse
Oliuia
by
sea
,
whereas
they
met
with
a
great
storme
,
wherewith
they
were
in
〈◊〉
&
how
meruailouslie
they
were
succoured
.
Chap.
6.
THe
Historie
hath
declared
vnto
you
how
&
in
what
sort
Rosicle●r
in
companie
with
his
good
friend
Sacridoro
did
carrie
the
Princes
Oliuia
but
of
England
,
&
how
that
they
sailed
on
the
sea
with
prosperous
winde
,
in
the
〈…〉
in
béeing
so
much
before
the
other
Fléete
.
All
the
diligence
of
the
Marriners
,
nor
the
greate
desire
of
the
Prince
was
sufficient
for
to
ouertake
them
,
for
that
they
were
a
great
waie
before
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
with
great
anger
be
cursed
the
windes
because
they
did
blow
stiffer
,
&
lifting
vp
his
eies
vnto
heaven
,
shedding
many
teares
he
sayd
.
Oh
diuine
maiestie
,
how
doe
you
permit
that
so
greate
force
and
iniurie
shuld
be
done
vnto
me
,
and
that
my
louing
spouse
should
bée
carried
awaie
from
me
in
this
sort
.
How
is
it
that
thou
dost
not
execute
thy
iustice
,
and
let
thy
wrath
to
fall
vpon
this
robber●
Oh
that
thy
diuine
maiestie
were
so
pleased
,
that
the
same
ship
might
strike
vpon
some
rocke
,
or
else
that
that
little
〈◊〉
called
Remora
;
in
climbing
vnto
the
ship
,
might
stay
the
furie
of
their
sailing
,
that
I
might
reuenge
this
my
great
wrath
and
ire
vpon
him
that
hath
offered
me
this
iniure
▪
So
in
vttering
these
and
other
wordes
of
great
griefe
,
sailed
Don
Siluero
,
making
so
great
●●mentation
,
that
his
knights
by
no
meanes
could
giue
him
anie
comfort
.
And
to
the
contrarie
sailed
Rosicleer
,
as
one
from
himselfe
,
with
great
pleasure
,
hauing
in
his
armes
her
whom
he
so
much
loued
,
with
so
great
glorie
,
that
it
was
wonder
and
alwaies
thought
to
be
worthie
of
so
excellent
〈◊〉
well
.
Likewise
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
although
she
was
not
as
yet
in
quiet
of
the
great
trouble
in
the
which
she
was
brought
,
but
yet
séeing
that
she
was
cléere
from
the
〈◊〉
of
Don
Siluerio
,
&
in
the
companie
of
him
whom
shée
loued
more
than
her selfe
,
shée
was
satisfied
of
all
those
troubles
and
griefes
past
,
and
receiued
great
contentments
;
&
thought
it
better
to
be
drowned
in
that
déepe
sea
,
in
the
companie
of
Rosicleer
,
than
to
liue
vpon
the
land
with
so
great
importunances
of
her
father
and
Don
Siluero
.
And
as
these
two
faithful
louers
were
together
with
great
contentment
,
making
manifest
by
words
the
great
glorie
that
they
receiued
in
their
hearts
.
Then
fortune
who
neuer
is
content
that
men
should
remaine
in
one
manner
,
but
mingling
sorrow
with
pleasure
,
like
vnto
the
whéele
of
Amyl
she
turned
about
,
in
such
sort
,
that
she
did
shew
her selfe
enimie
vnto
Rosicleer
,
in
the
midst
of
all
his
pleasures
,
that
in
a
small
time
he
was
driuen
without
repentance
of
his
sins
to
yeeld
vnto
death
.
For
that
being
his
ship
,
with
all
the
whole
fléete
of
the
Prince
,
entered
into
the
Tirreno
sea
,
at
such
time
as
the
one
after
the
other
sailed
with
prosperous
windes
.
Out
of
the
partes
of
the
Leuant
,
there
arose
vpon
a
sodaine
so
mightie
a
winde
,
and
with
so
great
force
,
that
〈…〉
not
onelie
against
them
in
staying
the
swifte
course
of
the
shippes
,
but
also
did
moue
the
waters
in
such
sorte
,
forcing
the
waues
to
swell
and
to
rise
of
so
greate
height
,
that
it
did
signifie
vnto
them
great
danger
and
perill
,
th●
which
〈◊〉
a
little
time
did
so
much
increase
,
that
the
déepe
waues
did
shew
themselues
cruel●
and
〈◊〉
against
the
〈…〉
beating
their
sailes
to
the
●asts
,
tearing
them
in
péeces
with
so
great
force
,
that
they
could
not
take
them
in
,
but
tumbling
〈◊〉
ships
from
one
part
to
another
,
〈◊〉
towards
that
place
,
wheras
the
force
of
that
outragious
winde
would
carrie
them
.
This
tempest
endured
with
them
one
whole
daie
and
a
night
,
in
the
end
whereof
all
that
were
in
the
shippes
committed
themselues
vnto
the
f●rie
of
the
sea
,
and
imploied
themselues
in
no
other
thing
,
but
in
p●aying
vnto
God
to
deliuer
them
from
that
great
perill
.
In
this
sort
they
passed
all
that
daie
and
the
next
night
,
till
in
the
morning
at
the
breake
of
the
daie
the
tempest
ceased
,
and
the
ship
of
Rosicleer
and
the
Fléete
of
Don
Siluerio
,
were
all
together
driuen
into
the
porte
of
Cerdenia
,
be
whole
Nauie
of
the
Prince
were
twelue
great
ships
,
besides
other
small
Princes
,
whereof
foure
of
them
with
the
tempest
were
driuen
into
some
other
partes
,
and
were
not
there
present
.
And
for
that
there
were
in
the
eight
ships
more
than
foure
thousand
knights
,
Don
Siluerio
receiued
,
so
great
ioy
,
for
to
sée
by
him
the
shippe
of
Rosicleer
,
as
though
he
had
bene
made
Lord
ouer
all
the
world
,
&
commanded
straight
waies
that
all
the
whole
Fléete
should
bée
put
in
order
,
the
which
was
done
,
and
began
to
assault
the
ship
on
euerie
side
with
so
great
alarum
,
that
it
had
ben
sufficient
to
haue
terrified
a
great
many
of
more
ships
than
they
were
.
But
when
Rosicleer
sawe
himselfe
compassed
round
about
,
and
assalted
with
so
many
ships
,
he
left
the
Princesse
Oliuia
in
a
cabine
in
the
poope
,
being
the
highest
part
of
all
the
ship
,
in
so
great
confusion
,
that
he
thought
she
wold
haue
died
,
and
he
with
more
courage
to
die
in
the
defence
of
his
praie
,
than
anie
feare
that
he
had
of
that
great
multitude
of
his
enimies
,
tooke
vnto
him
his
armour
,
and
descen●●d
into
the
wast
of
the
shipps
,
whereas
hée
found
the
good
king
Sacridoro
,
all
armed●
with
his
swoorde
in
his
hands
,
in
a
readinesse
to
make
his
defence
,
but
when
that
he
sawe
him
,
his
hart
was
ready
to
break
with
the
great
griefe
he
receiued
,
and
the
water
ranne
downe
his
chéekes
,
calling
to
remembrance
how
many
times
that
good
knight
had
put
his
lyfe
in
aduenture
for
him
,
and
how
that
he
neuer
came
vnto
that
estate
,
whereby
he
might
haue
made
him
some
parte
of
recompence
for
the
same
.
He
went
vnto
him
,
and
embracing
him
with
great
loue
,
he
said
.
Oh
my
good
and
perfect
friend
,
how
peruerse
and
contrarie
hath
fortune
shewed
her selfe
vnto
me
,
that
so
manye
times
my
friendship
hath
put
you
in
daunger
of
your
life
,
God
doth
know
whether
we
shal
be
slaine
or
no
in
this
conflict
,
yet
iurelie
your
death
shall
be
more
grieuous
vnto
me
than
mine
owne
.
To
whom
this
good
king
Sacridoro
with
a
valiant
courage
did
aunswere
,
saying
:
My
verie
good
friend
,
this
is
the
greatest
glorie
that
I
can
receiue
,
and
the
thing
that
I
haue
in
most
estimation
,
and
séeing
that
death
is
ordained
for
all
mortall
creatures
,
wherein
may
I
better
emploie
the
same
than
in
your
seruice
.
Come
on
let
vs
goe
and
make
defence
that
our
enimies
enter
not
vpon
vs
,
&
let
vs
venture
our
liues
,
and
offer
it
as
a
sacrifice
for
to
accomplish
that
which
is
due
and
doth
appertaine
to
our
honours
and
high
estate
.
This
good
king
had
not
so
soone
spoken
these
wordes
,
but
the
knightes
of
the
Prince
had
grapled
their
ships
together
,
and
boording
the
one
the
other
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
might
well
leape
out
of
the
one
into
the
other
,
Don
Siluerio
accompained
with
the
most
valiant
knightes
that
were
with
him
,
with
his
sword
in
his
hand
&
his
shéeld
on
his
arme
,
he
put
himselfe
formost
of
them
all
to
the
ship
side
,
and
with
a
loude
voice
he
saide
:
O
Rosicleer
yéeld
thy selfe
straight
waies
vnto
my
curtesie
,
&
surrender
the
prise
that
thou
hast
in
thy
power
,
for
that
fortune
cannot
so
much
fauour
thee
,
for
to
escape
out
of
my
handes
.
But
Rosicloer
being
readie
for
to
receiue
them
at
the
shippe
side
with
his
sword
in
his
hand
,
answered
neuer
a
〈◊〉
,
but
yéelded
him selfe
vnto
fortune
.
At
that
time
the
Princesse
Oliuia
by
the
importunitie
and
good
dicretion
of
her
damsell
Fidelia
,
put
her selfe
vpon
the
poope
of
the
ship
,
in
such
sort
,
that
she
might
be
séene
of
all
that
were
there
in
the
Fléete
,
with
a
naked
sword
in
her
hand
,
and
with
a
high
voice
that
it
might
bée
heard
of
all
the
people
,
she
sayd
.
O
all
you
knights
that
appertaineth
to
the
king
Oliuerio
my
father
,
if
there
be
anie
in
these
shippes
,
doe
not
shew
your selues
at
this
present
so
contrarie
vnto
me
,
but
to
fauour
and
helpe
the
G●éeke
Prince
,
for
that
many
daies
past
I
haue
chosen
him
to
be
my
naturall
spouse
and
husband
,
and
doe
you
not
consent
vnto
his
death
,
for
if
you
doe
,
I
doe
héere
make
a
vow
vnto
God
,
that
at
the
very
instant
that
he
shall
receiue
his
death
,
with
this
sword
I
will
cleaue
mine
owne
heart
asunder
.
At
which
words
Don
Silue●io
made
no
account
,
although
it
was
a
griefe
vnto
him
to
vnderstand
the
great
loue
that
she
bore
vnto
Rosicleer
,
by
her
outward
semblance
,
yet
notwithstanding
there
were
in
that
companie
knights
of
the
king
Oliuerio
that
did
reioyce
to
heare
those
wordes
,
for
to
haue
the
better
occasion
to
helpe
Rosicleer
,
without
anie
colour
to
attempt
anie
thing
against
the
king
their
Lord
,
amongst
whom
was
the
valiant
Zoylo
,
Bargand●l
,
Lyriamandro
,
and
Almades
of
Cornwaile
,
all
which
did
beare
good
will
vnto
Rosicleer
,
and
were
in
the
fore
part
of
the
ship
readie
to
giue
the
first
assault
vnto
the
expectation
of
the
rest
.
At
this
time
was
Don
Siluerio
with
thirtie
of
his
knights
entering
into
the
ship
of
Rosicleer
,
who
receiued
them
with
such
mortal
blowes
,
that
quicklie
they
ouerthrew
sixe
of
them
dead
into
the
water
,
and
Don
Siluerio
had
ben
one
of
them
,
if
that
his
inchaunted
armour
had
not
defended
him
,
but
yet
for
all
that
,
with
his
terrible
blows
he
was
so
terri●●ed
,
that
he
withdrew
himselfe
backe
,
and
put
his
knights
forwards
,
and
by
reason
that
there
were
so
many
of
them
,
and
euerie
one
did
procure
to
enter
into
the
shippe
of
the
two
knightes
,
there
was
such
a
noise
amongst
them
,
that
they
could
not
one
heare
another
.
All
this
time
was
the
Princesse
Oliuia
beholding
the
●●ttaile
,
lamenting
verie
much
to
sée
her
Rosicleer
in
so
great
perill
,
in
such
grieuous
wise
,
that
it
would
haue
moued
anie
man
to
compassion
to
haue
séene
her
,
and
with
verie
anguish
she
had
v●ed
there
,
if
that
her
damsell
Fidelia
had
not
béen
,
who
did
comfort
her
in
the
best
wise
she
could
.
But
this
vali●nt
and
worthie
Rosicleer
séeing
that
they
did
in
great
hast
compasse
his
shippe
round
about
for
to
enter
in
,
with
so
great
strength
and
courage
as
euer
was
séene
in
Knight
,
hee
besturred
himselfe
from
the
one
part
vnto
the
other
,
defending
the
enterie
of
his
enimies
with
such
mortall
blowes
,
that
hée
might
account
himselfe
vnhappie
that
was
within
the
reach
of
his
sword
,
which
was
that
of
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
and
so
noble
a
cutter
,
and
he
so
valiant
who
flourished
therwith
about
him
with
so
couragious
a
strength
,
as
one
which
next
vnto
God
hoped
to
set
his
lyfe
at
libertie
,
for
that
hée
neuer
stroke
blowe
,
but
that
either
hée
slew
or
ouerthrew
a
knight
,
so
that
all
his
aduersaries
were
wonderfullie
amazed
at
him
,
and
not
one
amongst
them
all
that
was
so
hardie
,
that
durs●
come
nigh
the
place
whereas
hée
was
.
Likewise
that
good
king
on
the
other
side
,
did
meruailouslie
defend
the
enterie
,
and
gaue
them
wel
to
vnderstand
by
his
terrible
blowes
,
the
great
good
will
that
he
bare
vnto
Rosicleer
,
who
dyd
not
estéeme
to
ven●ure
his
li●e
for
his
good
friend
,
and
did
so
behaue
himselfe
amongst
his
enimies
,
dealing
such
mortall
blowes
,
that
hée
slew
and
ouerthrew
a
great
number
of
them
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
all
those
which
dyd
beholde
him
,
by
reason
they
knew
him
not
,
were
greatlie
amazed
.
At
this
time
the
thrée
worthie
Princes
,
with
the
King
Alamades
séeing
that
it
was
high
time
for
to
succour
and
fauour
Rosicleer
,
with
great
lightnesse
they
leaped
into
his
ship
,
and
returned
against
Don
Silue●io
with
their
swordes
drawen
in
their
hands
,
and
sayd
:
Enforce
and
courage
thy selfe
valiant
knight
,
●or
wée
that
be
heere
are
〈◊〉
friendes
,
And
all
together
with
a
●oude
voice
sayd
,
●a●taria
,
Tartaria
,
Hungaria
,
Hungaria
,
Bohemia
,
Bohemia
,
Cormual●a
,
Cornualia
.
So
when
Rosicleer
by
the
naming
of
their
Countries
did
know
them
,
he
receiued
great
comfort
,
and
not
hauing
space
for
to
answere
them
,
he
did
no
●ore
but
humble
himselfe
,
and
for
that
his
shéelde
at
that
time
was
shieuered
and
broken
all
to
péeces
with
the
mightie
blowes
he
had
receiued
,
he
tooke
his
sword
in
both
his
hands
,
and
put
himself
amongst
his
aduersaries
,
and
did
so
great
meruailes
,
that
all
that
did
beholde
him
wondered
greatlie
,
and
they
which
did
not
sée
them
,
afterward
did
thinke
it
a
thing
impossible
,
and
in
declaring
of
it
,
verie
hard
to
be
beleeued
.
The
thrée
Princes
,
with
the
king
Alamades
,
all
foure
together
did
defend
the
entrie
of
the
shippe
,
killing
and
wounding
many
of
the
knights
of
Lusitania
,
and
likewise
receiued
many
blowes
on
euerie
side
.
The
number
of
their
aduersaries
were
so
many
,
that
they
were
driuen
into
a
meruailous
exsegent
.
But
when
that
Don
Siluerio
sawe
that
the
foure
knights
were
on
his
contrarie
part
,
he
receiued
great
dolour
and
anguish
at
his
heart
,
and
with
the
great
desire
that
hée
had
to
take
reuengement
of
them
all
together
,
he
encouraged
and
enforced
his
knights
all
that
euer
he
could
for
to
enter
the
ship
and
vanquish
them
,
and
by
reason
that
there
were
so
many
,
and
verie
valiant
knights
,
and
continuallie
entered
in
a
fresh
,
(
although
that
Rosicleer
and
his
friends
did
incredible
wonders
,
yet
in
the
space
of
one
houre
after
that
the
battaile
was
begun
,
they
were
put
in
a
great
extremitie
)
for
that
Don
Siluerio
was
verie
wise
,
and
his
knight
valiant
and
experimented
in
the
warres
and
battailes
,
and
did
assalt
their
ship
on
eueri●
side
with
great
strength
,
so
that
there
was
not
one
so
soone
slaine
,
but
another
entered
into
his
roome
straight
waies
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
the
other
valiant
knightes
had
no
time
for
to
ease
themselues
,
which
was
the
occasion
,
that
in
the
end
of
two
houres
after
that
the
battaile
was
begun
,
all
the
water
round
about
the
shippes
was
dyed
red
with
the
bloud
of
the
dead
knights
●f
Lusitania
,
and
the
strong
armes
of
Rosicleer
and
his
friends
,
(
as
of
mortall
men
)
beganne
to
ware
wearie
,
and
their
force
and
strength
did
abate
,
and
they
could
endure
no
longer
,
yet
their
valiaunt
and
couragious
heartes
were
prompt
and
readie
for
to
receiue
the
death
,
and
neuer
moued
counteance
thereat
,
but
determined
there
to
die
all
together
like
valiant
knightes
,
without
yéelding
or
surrendering
in
anie
point
,
but
amplisying
their
forces
with
their
valiant
hearts
,
making
their
defence
in
such
sort
,
that
their
aduersaries
did
not
perceiue
that
anie
wearinesse
were
in
them
,
so
that
the
battaile
at
that
instant
was
verie
cruell
and
wonderfull
,
and
the
noise
verie
great
which
they
made
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
inhabitants
of
Cerdenia
came
forth
and
did
beholde
that
cruell
and
well
foughten
battaile
,
dread●ullie
beholding
the
sea
,
how
it
was
stained
with
bloud
,
&
could
not
beléeue
th●y
should
be
humane
knightes
that
did
defend
themselues
(
in
〈◊〉
ship
alone
)
against
so
many
.
At
this
time
were
the
good
friends
of
Rosicleer
verie
wearie
with
the
oppressing
of
so
great
a
multitude
of
their
contraries
,
in
such
sort
that
they
could
not
lift
vp
their
swords
,
at
which
time
many
knights
of
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
beganne
to
enter
their
ship
,
of
the
which
Bramides
was
the
first
,
with
a
great
number
of
other
valiant
knights
,
who
with
great
furie
and
shouts
began
to
laie
vpon
their
aduersaries
,
and
saying
,
Upon
them
,
vpon
them
,
for
they
be
ouercome
.
But
when
Rosicleer
hear●
those
wordes
,
and
sawe
no
other
thing
but
perdition
,
he
began
greater
to
lament
the
death
of
his
friends
more
than
his
owne
,
but
that
which
did
grieue
him
most
was
,
that
after
so
many
troubles
&
sorrows
the
which
he
had
passed
for
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
and
had
her
in
his
power
,
alwai●s
hoping
at
her
hands
to
receiue
reward
for
the
same
,
he
should
now
be
constrained
therefore
to
die
,
and
to
leaue
her
in
the
power
of
another
,
hauing
this
in
his
remembraunce
,
lifting
vp
his
eies
vnto
heauen
to
aske
mercie
of
God
for
his
sinnes
,
he
sawe
his
welbeloued
mistres
in
a
sound
in
the
armes
of
Fidelia
,
as
she
which
made
no
other
reckoning
but
to
die
,
the
which
did
cause
vnto
him
so
great
dolour
&
griefe
,
that
it
kindled
in
him
mortall
wrath
and
ire
,
determined
to
sell
his
life
verie
déere
vnto
them
that
so
much
desired
his
death
,
wherewith
hée
tooke
his
sword
in
both
his
handes
,
and
stroke
so
terrible
a
blowe
at
the
Captaine
Bramides
,
vppon
the
wast
,
that
cutting
him
in
two
péeces
,
he
ouerthrew
him
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
therewith
at
other
sixe
blowes
he
slew
other
sixe
knightes
,
behauing
himselfe
so
amongest
them
,
that
they
fled
from
him
as
from
the
death
.
But
hée
as
one
that
had
his
death
certaine
,
without
anie
care
of
his
life
,
all
alone
he
maintained
the
battaile
against
the
knightes
of
Don
Siluerio
,
for
that
his
friends
could
not
doe
anie
thing
in
his
defence
they
weare
so
wearie
.
And
although
the
knights
of
Lusitania
were
valiant
,
and
did
charge
him
with
many
heauie
blowes
,
that
had
bene
sufficient
to
haue
cloue
amanfield
in
péeces
,
yet
did
he
defend
the
entrie
of
the
ship
alone
,
for
the
space
of
halfe
an
houre
against
all
the
companie
,
and
had
about
him
on
euery
side
a
great
number
of
dead
bodies
,
shewing
so
great
wonders
among
his
aduersaries
,
that
it
was
scarce
credible
to
the
beholders
.
Whereat
Don
Siluerio
receiued
great
griefe
to
sée
so
many
of
his
knights
slain
,
but
yet
he
durst
not
come
nigh
him
himselfe
,
but
forced
his
knights
forwards
with
reproch
,
that
it
was
a
shame
to
him
,
that
one
alone
knight
shoulde
make
his
defence
so
long
against
so
many
.
Who
hearing
those
wordes
made
no
more
a
doe
,
but
put
their
liues
in
aduenture
for
to
accomplish
that
which
was
their
deaths
,
and
therewith
they
leaped
into
the
ship
of
Rosicleer
,
and
charged
him
so
much
&
with
so
many
terrible
and
heauie
blowes
,
that
it
had
not
bene
possible
for
him
to
haue
indured
long
,
if
that
by
the
wonderfull
myracle
of
God
he
had
not
bene
succoured
.
You
shall
vnderstand
that
fortune
did
serue
him
so
wel
,
that
the
ship
wherein
was
that
valiant
and
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
that
stout
Oristedes
was
constrained
by
the
force
of
the
storme
and
tempest
past
,
to
enter
into
th●
same
port
of
Cerdenia
,
and
entering
in
thereat
,
they
straight
waies
did
sée
the
execution
of
that
cruell
battaile
,
and
were
greatlie
amased
to
sée
all
the
water
so
stained
with
bloud
,
and
how
that
one
alone
ship
did
make
his
defence
against
all
the
rest
:
but
when
they
sawe
so
few
knightes
did
maintaine
themselues
against
so
great
a
multitude
of
their
enimies
,
their
meruaile
was
the
more
,
and
remained
astonied
for
a
great
space
to
sée
the
incredible
acts
that
Rosicleer
dyd
,
as
one
that
was
desperate
of
his
own
life
,
which
was
with
so
great
courage
,
that
if
he
had
séene
it
with
his
owne
eyes
,
he
could
not
haue
beléeued
that
any
humane
creature
could
haue
done
it
.
And
as
he
was
with
great
attention
beholding
them
with
great
good
will
for
to
aide
and
helpe
them
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
know
him
by
the
deuice
of
his
armour
,
although
that
they
were
all
to
be
rai●d
with
bloud
,
as
also
by
the
comelie
proportion
of
his
bodie
,
&
therewith
vpon
a
sodaine
with
a
loude
voice
he
said
:
O
good
God
,
it
séemeth
vnto
me
,
that
yonder
knight
should
be
Rosicleer
my
brother
,
or
els
my
sight
doth
deceiue
me
:
Oh
my
good
friend
,
now
shew
forth
your
great
bountie
to
defend
and
saue
the
life
of
the
person
of
him
that
I
loue
best
in
all
the
worlde
.
Come
on
let
vs
go
,
sayd
Oristedes
,
for●with
▪
verie
good
will
I
wil
offer
my selfe
in
anie
thing
that
doth
appertaine
vnto
you
or
to
your
brother
.
And
in●saying
these
words
,
these
two
good
friends
did
cause
their
ship
to
be
grapled
vnto
the
ship
of
Rosicleer
,
and
with
their
swordes
drawen
in
their
hands
they
leapt
into
the
sayd
ship
,
and
sayd
:
Courage
,
courage
,
good
knight
,
and
take
a
good
:
heart
,
héere
is
come
vnto
thée
thy
brother
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
And
therewithall
turned
against
his
aduersaries
,
and
made
so
great
a
slaughter
amongst
them
,
that
in
a
short
space
al
the
hatches
of
the
ship
laie
full
of
dead
bodies
,
and
the
knights
of
Lusitania
béeing
greatlie
amased
at
such
sodaine
and
str●●ge
succour
,
they
fled
before
them
with
all
the
speede
they
could
into
their
owne
ships
,
and
in
making
such
hast
,
many
of
them
leaped
short
&
fell
into
the
water
,
so
that
by
this
meanes
their
shippe
was
quicklie
ridde
of
their
enimies
.
But
when
that
Rosicleer
heard
those
comfortable
words
of
his
worthie
brother
,
and
knew
him
as
well
by
his
wonderfull
blowes
giuen
,
as
by
the
deuice
of
his
armour
,
what
ioy
and
pleasure
might
bée
equall
vnto
his
,
I
saie
vnto
you
,
it
was
much
more
than
it
was
,
at
that
time
when
that
he
was
succoured
by
him
in
the
Iland
of
Can●●marte
,
for
that
his
death
at
that
time
shoulde
not
haue
béene
so
grieuous
vnto
him
,
as
at
this
pres●nt
the
death
of
his
good
and
perfect
friends
,
and
hauing
in
his
power
the
fayre
Princesse
Oliuia
.
And
as
one
who
by
the
aide
and
succour
of
his
Brother
was
in
good
hope
to
be
set
frée
and
at
libertie
of
so
rigorous
and
cruell
a
traunce
,
with
a
new
and
vnlooked
for
ioye
,
did
so
hearter
,
and
incourage
himselfe
,
recouering
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
hée
began
to
make
so
great
a
destruction
among
his
enimies
,
as
though
the
battaile
were
but
as
then
begun
,
and
comming
nigh
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
he
sayde
:
Oh
my
Lorde
and
welbeloued
brother
,
what
great
benefit
is
this
that
God
hath
shewed
vnto
me
,
that
it
hath
pleased
him
that
I
am
succoured
by
your
great
power
and
strength
,
and
now
that
I
find
my selfe
in
your
companie
,
if
that
all
the
whole
world
were
against
me
,
I
should
not
haue
anie
feare
.
At
this
time
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
could
not
make
him
anie
answere
,
for
that
he
was
so
occupied
amongst
his
enimies
,
where
hée
did
so
great
slaughter
,
that
there
was
none
that
durst
tarrie●
before
him
.
Likewise
the
Troian
did
so
defend
his
partie
,
that
it
was
wonderfull
to
beholde
,
at
whom
Rosicleer
was
greatlie
amazed
,
not
knowing
who
that
valiant
and
worthie
knight
should
be
.
Then
the
king
Sacridoro
and
the
other
Princes
,
when
they
sawe
that
sodain
and
soueraigne
fauour
which
was
come
vnto
them
,
&
how
that
their
enimies
were
brought
into
a
greater
straight
than
they
were
before
,
although
they
were
verie
wearie
and
ouercome
with
labour
,
yet
the
ioy
which
they
receiued
did
renue
in
them
so
great
strength
,
that
they
returned
vpon
their
enimies
,
and
slewe
many
of
them
with
their
terrible
blowes
,
&
the
feare
which
the
knights
of
Don
Siluerio
receiued
by
the
great
prowesse
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Troyan
was
such
,
that
there
was
not
one
that
durst
giue
anie
attempt
,
but
withdrew
themselues
all
that
euer
they
could
,
for
which
cause
Oristedes
in
companie
with
the
king
Sacridoro
,
and
the
other
Princes
,
remained
in
the
ship
as
sufficient
for
to
defend
the
same
,
and
the
two
brethren
leapt
into
the
ship
of
their
enimies
,
as
in
〈◊〉
and
contention
the
one
of
the
other
,
they
began
to
wound
and
to
slaie
their
enimies
,
and
kept
such
a
stur
amongst
them
,
in
killing
some
and
making
other
some
to
fal
into
the
water
,
and
other
some
to
run
away
for
to
saue
themselues
,
that
in
a
small
time
there
remained
in
the
ships
none
for
to
make
anie
defence
.
Then
Don
Siluerio
who
did
beholde
all
this
that
passed
,
with
great
sorrowe
and
griefe
of
heart
he
complained
against
fortune
,
for
that
she
was
so
contrarie
vnto
him
,
and
for
that
hee
knew
not
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
but
sawe
with
his
eies
the
great
wonders
and
valiant
deedes
done
by
him
,
he
thought
verilie
that
it
was
some
diuell
of
hell
that
was
come
to
aide
and
succour
Rosicleer
,
in
séeing
the
feare
that
his
knights
had
of
him
,
that
there
was
not
one
that
durst
appeare
before
him
,
but
ran
awaie
,
so
that
he
was
without
all
hope
of
the
victorie
,
which
caused
him
with
déepe
sighs
to
saie
:
Ah
Oliuia
,
now
I
see
that
it
is
not
Gods
will
that
thou
shalt
be
mine
.
At
which
time
Fidelia
had
her
in
her
armes
in
a
sound
,
and
séeing
the
good
successe
which
happened
vnto
them
,
and
how
that
fortune
dyd
shew
her selfe
fauourable
,
with
such
diligence
as
she
ministred
vnto
her
,
she
brought
her
againe
vnto
her selfe
,
and
sayde
.
What
is
this
my
Ladie
and
mistres
,
arise
and
comfort
your selfe
,
and
beholde
the
great
succour
(
which
God
hauing
compassion
on
vs
)
hath
sent
vs
in
such
sort
that
the
victorie
is
verie
certaine
on
your
knights
behalfe
.
Then
the
Princesse
who
was
as
one
halfe
dead
,
beholding
the
battaile
,
when
she
sawe
that
there
was
none
so
hardie
that
durst
abide
before
Rosicleer
and
his
companions
,
but
ranne
awaie
from
them
as
from
their
deaths
,
she
receiued
therewith
great
consolation
and
comfort
,
and
had
great
hope
of
the
victorie
,
and
being
greatlie
amazed
at
the
high
bountie
of
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
she
asked
of
her
damsell
Fidelia
who
that
valiant
knight
should
be
:
Ah
my
good
Ladie
and
mistres
,
sayde
Fidelia
,
in
this
thing
onelie
may
you
consider
of
the
good
fortune
of
Rosicleer
,
for
according
vnto
the
wordes
which
hée
sayd
at
his
comming
,
he
should
be
his
brother
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
as
I
haue
heard
many
times
,
is
the
knight
that
in
all
the
worlde
is
not
his
like
,
but
the
other
that
is
come
with
him
I
know
not
,
but
his
valiant
demeanour
doth
shew
that
he
is
one
of
the
best
knights
that
I
haue
séene
.
At
which
words
the
Princesse
receiued
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
and
with
better
comfort
than
she
had
at
anie
time
before
,
she
arose
vp
and
put
her selfe
to
beholde
the
battayle
,
●he
which
did
not
endure
long
,
for
that
after
that
the
two
brethren
had
entered
into
their
ship
,
they
almost
did
yéeld
vnto
them
,
finding
not
one
that
durst
abide
their
furie
,
for
the
which
Don
Siluerio
fearing
●he
encounter
,
and
séeming
a
thing
impossible
for
his
knights
to
haue
the
victorie
,
he
determined
to
depart
,
without
all
hope
of
good
fortune
,
finding
her
at
that
time
so
contrarie
in
all
points
.
So
with
great
sorrow
and
griefe
he
commanded
his
ship
to
be
vngrapled
from
the
ship
of
Rosicleer
,
and
the
Pilots
to
hoise
vp
sailes
,
and
to
depart
,
the
which
was
nothing
grieuous
vnto
his
knightes
,
〈…〉
greatlie
at
the
mightie
valiantnesse
and
〈◊〉
blowes
of
their
aduersaries
.
The
ship
wherein
was
the
knight
of
the
Sun
and
Rosicleer
remained
,
but
the
other
seauen
departed
with
such
people
as
were
lost
,
there
were
slaine
more
than
halfe
of
them
that
came
in
companie
with
the
Prince
,
Don
Siluerio
So
when
these
two
breth●●
saw
th●msel●e●●●
〈◊〉
of
their
o●imies
,
they
did
embrac●
one
another
with
great
loue
,
and
their
ioy
was
such
,
that
they
could
scare
speake
.
At
this
time
came
vnto
him
Oristedes
,
&
the
knight
of
the
Sun
declared
vnto
Rosicleer
who
he
was
,
by
whom
he
was
embraced
with
great
ioy
&
pleasure
,
but
the
good
Troyan
was
greatlie
amazed
at
the
great
beautie
of
Rosicleer
and
how
boistrous
and
stout
he
séemed
;
when
that
hée
was
beholding
the
great
wonders
the
which
he
did
alone
in
the
ship
▪
which
caused
him
to
saie
within
himselfe
,
that
not
without
great
mysterie
were
these
two
brethren
borne
and
created
with
such
high
bountie
,
resembling
another
so
much
.
Then
straight
waies
came
vnto
them
the
thrée
Princes
,
and
the
king
of
cornualia
,
who
were
verie
desirous
to
sée
Rosicleer
,
as
those
who
sustained
great
trauaile
in
his
demand
,
he
receiued
them
with
great
ioy
,
&
embraced
them
,
yéelding
thanks
for
the
great
pleasure
which
they
had
done
for
him
at
that
present
▪
Then
came
vnto
them
the
good
king
Sacrido●o
,
whom
they
did
embrace
,
with
great
ioy
amongst
them
all
to
méete
together
at
that
present
,
whereas
they
gaue
one
another
to
vnderstand
what
they
had
passed
,
and
by
what
aduenture
they
came
thether
but
when
the
knight
of
the
Sun
vnderstood
all
that
was
done
&
passed
with
his
brother
Rosicleer
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
he
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
God
,
for
that
it
was
his
will
to
bring
him
thether
at
that
instant
,
and
hauing
great
desire
for
to
see
and
know
her
,
he
sayd
,
that
if
it
were
their
pleasures
he
would
go
&
speak
with
her
.
So
therewith
they
went
vnto
the
cabin
whereas
the
Princesse
Oliuia
&
her
damsell
Fidelia
were
,
who
receiued
no
lesse
ioy
(
to
sée
her
knight
frée
and
at
liber●e
of
that
great
perill
and
danger
)
than
if
she
had
ben
made
Ladie
ouer
all
the
world
.
And
the
knight
of
the
Sun
and
Oristedes
verie
much
meruailed
at
the
great
bountie
&
beautie
of
the
Princesse
,
who
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
one
of
the
fairest
Damsels
that
was
to
be
found
in
all
the
world
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
wold
haue
kissed
her
hands
,
but
she
wold
not
consent
thervnto
,
but
did
embrace
him
with
as
great
loue
as
though
hée
had
ben
her
owne
naturall
brother
the
Prince
Edward
,
and
th●
gaue
vnto
him
great
thanks
for
that
which
he
did
in
her
succour
.
To
whom
the
knight
of
the
Sun
answered
,
that
not
he
alone
doth
owe
that
dutie
,
but
also
all
the
world
in
consideration
who
she
was
,
ano
that
he
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
in
that
he
did
know
her
to
be
his
soueraigne
Ladie
and
sister
.
Then
the
good
Troyan
Oristedes
went
and
offered
to
kisse
her
handes
,
and
yéelded
himselfe
wholie
vnto
her
grace
.
The
Princesse
did
surrender
vnto
him
thankes
,
and
receiued
great
contentment
to
haue
in
her
companie
so
high
and
valiant
knights
.
For
with
iust
reason
might
be
sayd
,
that
there
was
ioyned
together
all
the
bountie
and
prowesse
of
the
whole
world
.
So
all
together
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
they
commanded
their
shippes
to
be
made
in
a
readinesse
,
and
sayled
together
towardes
the
Empire
of
Grecia
.
And
being
at
sea
,
they
met
with
a
great
and
mightie
shippe
,
wherein
came
the
worthie
and
valiant
Prince
Clauerindo
,
who
with
the
company
of
his
vnkle
Flamides
,
brought
with
them
the
faire
Princesse
Lindaraza
,
And
when
they
knew
the
one
the
other
,
there
was
great
reioycing
of
all
theyr
partes
,
bu●
in
especiallie
,
béeing
giuen
to
vnderstand
by
what
strange
aduenture
the
Prince
did
bring
her
,
and
of
the
good
will
which
he
had
for
to
marrie
with
her
,
at
such
time
as
they
should
ariue
at
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
in
the
presence
of
the
Emperour
,
the
ioy
of
the
brethren
was
the
more
,
and
they
receiued
Lindaraxa
with
great
loue
,
vnto
whom
she
séemed
to
be
in
all
points
of
great
valour
,
and
she
lykewise
with
more
ioy
and
pleasure
than
euer
she
receiued
before
in
all
her
life
,
went
along
with
them
,
and
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
God
for
that
good
fortune
she
had
to
meete
them
.
Then
she
embraced
with
great
loue
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
who
with
great
ioy
dyd
receiue
her
,
being
either
of
them
verie
much
amazed
at
the
strange
beautie
the
one
of
the
other
,
and
verie
gladde
that
they
should
enter
together
into
Grecia
.
So
with
great
ioye
and
delight
they
sailed
on
their
voiage
,
and
had
so
gallant
conuersation
amongst
themselues
,
that
they
neuer
felt
the
trauaile
of
the
sea
.
There
dyd
the
Princes
,
Zoylo
,
Bargandel
,
and
Lyriamandro
vnderstand
of
Rosicleer
all
his
aduentures
,
and
what
he
had
passed
in
them
,
after
that
he
departed
out
of
England
,
who
receiued
great
pleasure
to
heare
him
▪
although
to
the
contrarie
they
did
complaine
much
of
him
,
for
that
they
taking
so
great
paines
in
séeking
of
him
,
with
great
desire
of
his
companie
,
he
woulde
not
discouer
himselfe
vnto
them
.
So
passing
the
time
with
these
and
other
such
like
sports
they
sailed
towardes
Grecia
,
and
in
few
daies
with
prosperous
windes
they
ariued
at
the
port
of
Constanstinople
,
and
thinking
it
great
reason
before
that
they
did
dis●mbarke
themselues
,
to
giue
the
Emperour
Trebatio
vnderstanding
of
their
ariuall
,
it
was
concluded
and
agréed
amongst
them
,
that
the
king
Sacridoro
should
goe
vnto
Constantinople
,
for
that
he
knew
the
whole
discourse
of
Rosicleer
,
and
sawe
by
experience
the
most
part
of
his
valiant
worthinesse
,
that
hée
might
declare
the
same
vnto
the
Emperour
and
Empresse
,
and
in
what
sort
he
doth
bring
with
him
the
Princesse
Oliuia
and
Clauerindo
,
&
Lindaraza
,
and
how
they
are
all
together
in
the
port
of
that
Citie
,
readie
for
to
come
a
shore
,
and
by
reason
that
the
daie
was
farre
spent
and
the
night
drew
on
,
they
dyd
inferre
it
till
the
next
morning
when
that
the
king
Sacridoro
went
a
land
and
did
his
message
.
How
the
knight
of
the

Chap.
7.
WHen
the
next
morning
was
come
,
the
good
King
Sacridoro
went
a
land
,
beeing
armed
with
his
whole
armour
verie
richlie
,
alonely
with
one
Squire
,
and
entered
into
Constantinople
,
who
finding
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
the
Empresse
Briana
in
the
great
hall
together
,
without
anie
dolour
he
came
in
whereas
they
were
,
who
when
they
sawe
him
,
receiued
him
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
as
well
for
that
he
was
so
great
a
friend
vnto
their
sonne
Rosicleer
,
as
also
because
they
hoped
to
heare
some
newes
from
him
,
the
which
they
longed
verie
much
for
,
for
of
long
time
they
had
not
heard
from
him
.
Then
the
king
went
to
kisse
the
hands
of
the
Emperour
,
who
did
embrace
him
with
great
loue
,
and
said
:
King
Sacridoro
,
my
verie
good
friend
,
you
are
heartelie
welcome
into
this
Countrie
,
for
with
your
comming
I
doe
receiue
great
ioy
and
pleasure
.
Therefore
tel
me
what
is
become
of
your
greatest
friend
Rosicleer
,
for
that
I
meruaile
greatlie
that
he
is
not
come
in
your
companie
,
&
I
am
fullie
perswaded
that
it
is
a
great
thing
that
should
depart
you
a
sunder
.
Then
the
king
after
that
he
had
done
his
due
reuerence
,
answered
him
and
said
:
Mightie
Emperour
,
I
came
in
the
companie
of
Rosicleer
,
and
God
forbidde
that
so
long
as
I
liue
,
I
shoulde
separate
my selfe
out
of
his
companie
,
for
therewith
I
receive
more
honour
and
contentment
,
than
with
all
the
whole
kingdome
of
Antiochia
,
the
which
I
holde
by
his
valyant
worthinesse
.
And
héere
I
giue
you
to
vnderstand
(
most
high
renowmed
princes
)
that
your
mightie
valiant
&
most
worthie
sonnes
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
,
are
in
the
port
of
this
Citie
,
accompanied
with
worthie
&
valiant
princes
and
knights
,
and
doe
bring
in
their
companie
,
the
most
excelent
and
faire
princesse
Oliuia
,
daughter
vnto
the
puisant
king
Oliuerio
,
whome
Rosicleer
,
falling
in
loue
with
,
did
by
force
of
his
strong
arme
,
take
out
of
the
court
of
the
king
her
father
,
and
with
one
alone
shippe
(
in
the
which
we
are
come
)
made
his
defence
at
the
sea
,
against
more
than
sire
thousand
knights
,
&
there
did
he
shew
vnto
him
a
great
part
of
all
that
had
passed
in
that
enterprise
,
and
of
the
great
sorow
which
he
receued
for
the
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
of
Oristedes
his
friend
,
as
also
how
by
fortune
at
the
sea
they
met
with
the
prince
Clauerindo
,
who
brought
in
his
companie
the
faire
Lindaraza
,
with
her
vnckle
Fla●nides
,
with
the
whole
discourse
how
he
brought
her
out
of
the
castle
,
in
such
sort
as
he
tolde
them
at
the
sea
.
But
when
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
heard
these
newes
,
they
receued
great
ioy
and
comfort
thereat
,
&
as
those
who
haue
great
experience
in
cases
of
loue
,
did
not
greatly
meruaile
at
that
which
Rosicleer
did
for
the
loue
of
Oliuia
,
likewise
they
receued
content
,
for
that
he
had
accomplished
his
desire
,
being
fullie
certified
that
the
princesse
should
inherit
the
kingdome
of
great
Britaine
,
after
the
deceace
of
the
king
her
father
,
and
how
that
Rosicleer
could
not
marrie
with
a
damsell
in
all
the
world
of
more
higher
estate
.
Also
theyr
ioy
did
encreace
at
the
newes
of
the
comming
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Then
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
dyd
render
vnto
the
king
Sacridoro
great
thankes
,
for
that
he
would
come
to
bring
them
so
ioyfull
newes
.
And
the
Emperour
did
straight
waies
commaund
his
nobles
and
worthie
princes
&
knights
that
were
then
present
in
his
court
,
to
be
in
a
redinesse
for
to
goe
and
receue
them
,
who
in
companie
with
them
all
with
great
pomp
&
maiestie
,
went
forth
of
the
Citie
with
so
great
a
troupe
,
that
all
those
wide
and
broade
fieldes
were
full
of
people
,
for
that
when
the
comming
of
these
two
princes
were
published
&
knowen
,
there
were
few
or
none
that
remained
,
but
all
went
forth
for
to
receue
them
.
The
Emperour
went
in
the
middest
of
all
those
Princes
and
knightes
,
and
by
him
the
good
King
Sacridoro
,
with
so
graue
and
seuere
countenance
,
that
he
dyd
very
well
manifest
his
high
estate
.
So
when
that
they
came
vnto
the
sea
port
,
at
the
sound
of
Trumpets
&
other
kinds
of
instruments
,
these
princes
did
disembarke
themselues
a
land
;
Rosicleer
brought
by
the
hand
his
welbeloued
princesse
Oliuia
,
who
was
of
so
great
beautie
,
that
all
that
did
behold
her
were
greatly
amazed
,
so
that
there
grew
betwixt
diuers
great
contention
,
whether
that
the
beautie
of
the
Princes
Claridiana
did
excéede
the
beautie
of
the
princesse
Lindabrides
,
but
all
in
generall
said
,
that
Rosicleer
had
great
reason
to
put
himselfe
in
such
perill
,
for
the
loue
of
so
faire
a
ladie
.
Then
straight
waies
came
forth
the
faire
Lindaraza
,
whose
beautie
did
worke
no
lesse
admiration
in
the
beholders
,
then
the
princesse
,
and
was
lead
by
that
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
her
brother
,
accompanied
with
those
renowmed
princes
Clauarindo
,
Bargandel
,
and
Liriamandro
,
likewise
with
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
the
good
Troyan
Oristedes
,
and
the
valiant
king
Alamades
of
Cornewaile
,
all
the
which
came
foorth
so
séemely
and
richly
aryed
,
that
it
put
in
great
admiration
all
them
that
did
behold
them
.
So
when
they
all
came
before
the
Emperour
(
who
receued
great
ioy
and
pleasure
to
sée
his
two
worthie
sonnes
&
those
two
so
excelent
Princesses
,
he
went
&
embraced
them
with
great
pleasure
&
delight
,
but
in
especial
,
the
two
faire
Ladies
,
saying
,
I
am
much
more
bound
vnto
God
then
any
other
man
in
the
world
,
and
to
giue
him
greater
thanks
,
for
that
he
hath
not
alone
brought
mée
to
the
sight
and
knowledging
of
my
two
so
valiant
sonnes
,
but
also
by
them
I
haue
recouered
and
obtained
for
my
daughters
,
two
so
worthie
Princesses
,
as
the
like
are
not
to
be
founde
in
all
the
world
.
How
is
it
that
by
my
desert
I
am
worthie
to
sée
in
mine
Empire
of
Grecia
,
so
high
and
soueraigne
beauties
,
as
these
worthie
peeres
are
.
Then
they
did
humble
themselues
vpon
their
knées
before
the
Emperour
,
and
would
haue
kissed
his
handes
,
but
the
Emperour
would
not
consent
therevnto
,
but
returned
and
dyd
embrace
them
a
new
,
&
caused
them
to
arise
from
the
ground
,
and
then
with
excéeding
ioy
and
pleasure
he
gaue
entertainment
vnto
his
sonnes
,
and
vnto
those
high
Princes
and
Knights
,
saying
vnto
Bargandel
,
Lyriamandro
,
&
Zoilo
:
now
my
verie
good
friends
am
I
satisfied
,
séeing
that
with
so
ioyfull
comming
you
wil
requite
me
the
euill
newes
,
the
which
you
gaue
mée
in
Constantinople
,
of
the
death
of
my
sonne
Rosicleer
.
In
this
shall
your
highnesse
sée
,
said
Zoylo
,
how
far
your
good
fortune
doth
extend
,
&
the
more
to
estéeme
the
acknowledging
of
your
sonne
,
Fortune
wold
first
present
before
you
those
so
sodaine
and
heauie
newes
of
great
dolour
,
that
after
when
it
should
be
found
vnto
the
contrarie
,
the
ioy
and
pleasure
might
be
the
more
.
Then
the
Emperour
did
embrace
them
all
one
after
another
,
&
receiued
so
great
contentment
to
sée
those
so
worthie
knights
that
brought
his
sonnes
,
that
he
neuer
rested
,
nor
could
not
bée
satisfied
in
giuing
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
for
exalting
him
vnto
so
high
estate
.
Likewise
they
were
no
lesse
amazed
at
the
surpassing
and
gentle
disposition
of
the
Emperour
,
and
the
great
maiestie
that
hée
dyd
represent
in
his
person
,
they
dyd
beholde
him
with
great
attention
,
and
sayde
within
themselues
,
that
hée
was
worthie
to
bée
Father
of
those
two
Myrrors
of
knighthoode
throughout
all
the
worlde
.
And
the
Princesses
Oliuia
and
Lindaraza
receiued
meruailous
greate
contentment
to
sée
what
great
loue
and
humanitie
he
shewed
vnto
all
people
,
and
what
great
ioye
and
pleasure
he
receiued
of
their
comming
.
So
after
that
ther
had
passed
much
communication
,
in
this
their
first
méeting
,
then
the
other
Princes
Rodamarte
and
Rodofeo
,
and
other
noble
men
that
came
in
the
companie
of
the
Emperour
,
went
&
welc●mmed
their
noble
Princes
,
who
dyd
embrace
and
receiue
them
with
great
ioy
and
loue
.
This
being
done
,
the
Emperour
and
all
the
rest
mounted
vpon
their
horses
,
and
the
two
princesses
vpon
their
palfraies
,
which
were
brought
thether
for
them
,
wel
garnished
,
&
tooke
their
waie
towards
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
accompanied
with
so
many
knightes
and
Citizens
,
that
all
the
mightie
wide
and
broade
fields
seemed
to
be
couered
with
them
.
In
this
sort
they
entered
into
the
Citie
with
great
maiestie
&
pompe
,
whereas
was
so
meruailous
sweet
noise
of
all
kindes
of
instruments
and
musicke
,
that
it
was
thought
(
that
the
entring
of
Caesar
into
Rome
af●er
his
great
victorie
)
was
not
equall
vnto
this
,
and
passing
through
the
stréetes
of
the
Citie
,
the
windowes
were
furnished
with
Ladies
and
damsels
,
who
greatlie
meruailed
at
the
strange
and
excellent
beauties
of
Oliuia
and
Lindaraza
,
and
praised
God
of
all
partes
for
séeing
that
daie
,
in
the
which
the
Emperour
receiued
his
so
worthie
sonnes
,
who
brought
so
great
ioy
,
contentment
,
honour
,
and
pleasure
vnto
that
mightie
Court
.
So
when
they
came
vnto
the
mightie
pallace
,
Lindaraza
was
alighted
from
her
Palsraie
in
the
armes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
her
brother
,
and
the
faire
Oliuia
in
the
armes
of
the
Emperour
,
who
would
not
consent
that
anie
other
should
doe
it
,
and
at
their
ascending
vp
into
the
greate
hall
,
there
the
Empresse
Briana
accompanied
with
al
her
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
came
●orth
and
did
receiue
the
two
Ladies
,
embracing
them
with
so
great
loue
,
as
though
they
had
bene
her
owne
naturall
dauhters
.
But
when
she
sawe
the
great
beautie
and
soueraigne
grace
of
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
she
receiued
within
her selfe
a
meruailous
great
contentment
,
and
thanked
God
for
the
good
fortune
that
Rosicleer
had
obtained
for
the
recouering
of
her
.
Then
the
Princesses
both
of
them
did
knéele
downe
before
the
Empresse
,
&
would
haue
kissed
her
hands
,
but
she
would
not
consent
vn-the
same
,
but
caused
them
to
arise
,
and
with
great
loue
shée
sayde
.
Ah
precious
and
déere
daughters
,
what
great
pleasure
doth
my
heart
receiue
,
and
how
ioyfull
vnto
me
is
this
your
comming
into
this
Countrie
,
and
turning
vnto
Oliuia
shee
sayd
:
How
much
am
I
bound
vnto
God
,
that
in
loosing
the
name
of
a
sister
in
lawe
,
I
doe
inioy
you
for
my
Daughter
.
So
passing
betwixt
them
many
amorous
and
louing
communications
,
came
vnto
her
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
to
kisse
her
hands
,
but
she
dyd
embrace
them
with
so
great
loue
,
as
vnto
so
noble
&
worthie
persons
did
appertaine
.
Then
gaue
she
entertainment
vnto
all
the
other
Princes
&
knights
,
with
so
gallant
grace
&
demeanor
,
that
al
were
contented
therwith
,
&
said
,
that
of
so
high
&
worthy
parents
,
reason
is
,
that
they
should
bring
forth
so
worthie
sunnes
.
So
after
that
they
had
spent
a
good
while
in
these
their
gréetings
&
receiuings
,
they
entered
into
a
meruailous
faire
and
great
quadran
,
where
al
these
knights
were
vnarmed
,
&
had
giuen
vnto
them
rich
&
precious
robes
to
couer
them
,
the
which
being
done
,
with
great
ioy
they
sate
downe
to
dinner
,
wheras
they
were
serued
with
so
great
maiestie
,
as
did
wel
agrée
vnto
their
high
estates
.
Thus
with
great
delight
vnto
them
all
,
they
remained
certaine
daies
making
great
triumphs
,
&
exercising
meruailous
feates
of
armes
,
whereas
the
stout
Troyan
,
the
king
Sacridoro
,
and
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
with
the
other
worthie
Princes
,
gaue
such
testimonie
of
their
bountie
,
that
from
that
time
forwardes
they
were
estéemed
as
their
worthinisse
did
deserue
.
In
this
time
was
Rosicleer
in
so
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
as
before
hée
sawe
himselfe
in
sorrow
and
sadnesse
,
for
he
had
his
welbeloued
Oliuia
in
his
power
,
and
that
there
was
concluded
&
finished
all
his
cares
and
mortall
griefs
that
he
had
receiued
for
her
cause
,
so
that
there
●as
no
pleasure
in
all
the
world
that
might
be
compared
vnto
his
,
wherewith
he
went
as
one
from
himselfe
,
thinking
himselfe
not
worthie
to
inioy
so
great
glorie
.
The
Princesse
Oliuia
likewise
receiued
no
lesse
contentment
,
for
calling
to
remembrance
the
great
trauaile
&
afflictions
that
she
had
sustained
and
passed
for
her
welbeloued
friend
,
and
now
séeing
her selfe
frée
and
cléere
from
them
all
,
and
put
in
so
high
estate
,
she
thought
verilie
that
there
was
not
a
Ladie
nor
Gentle
woman
in
all
the
world
so
fortunate
as
shée
,
so
that
the
ioy
of
them
both
was
without
comparison
,
which
was
cleane
contrarie
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
he
found
not
there
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
her
absence
caused
vnto
him
great
anguish
and
griefe
.
And
béeing
in
such
sort
,
that
hée
could
not
suffer
nor
abide
it
,
he
determined
straight
waies
to
depart
toward
Trapisonda
,
at
such
time
as
he
saw
that
the
Emperour
his
Father
was
most
in
quiet
,
and
when
that
his
departure
should
lesse
grieue
him
,
otherwise
he
would
not
for
all
the
world
doe
that
whereby
he
should
receiue
anie
displeasure
.
For
you
shall
vnderstand
that
this
knight
and
Rosicleer
his
brother
,
amongst
all
other
vertues
with
the
which
they
were
indued
,
this
did
surmount
all
the
rest
,
for
that
there
was
not
a
knight
in
all
the
world
that
better
dyd
loue
their
Father
than
these
two
,
for
that
they
did
not
alonelie
serue
and
honour
him
,
but
the
more
to
exalt
his
maiestie
,
not
one
of
them
in
his
presence
woulde
make
anie
estimation
of
themselues
,
but
would
that
all
honour
and
reuerence
should
be
giuen
vnto
him
onlie
,
who
for
the
worthinesse
of
his
person
dyd
deserue
the
same
.
So
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
not
displeasing
him
in
his
departure
,
did
passe
awaie
his
anguish
and
griefes
as
well
as
he
could
,
thinking
euerie
houre
a
whole
yéere
till
such
time
as
he
might
sée
his
Claridiana
.
This
might
be
a
spectacle
vnto
all
such
as
hath
Fathers
,
for
to
procure
and
doe
as
this
knight
did
,
for
to
make
equall
his
pastimes
and
pleasures
vnto
the
troubles
and
necessities
of
his
Father
,
alwaies
desiring
and
procuring
his
honour
more
than
his
owne
,
hauing
before
his
eyes
neuer
to
haue
quietnesse
nor
rest
,
at
such
time
as
his
father
is
in
anie
trouble
,
for
that
the
gift
of
the
father
,
although
it
be
not
profitable
to
his
possessions
,
yet
is
hée
most
excellent
to
giue
counsaile
,
and
profitable
vnto
the
sonne
:
and
is
neuer
wel
knowen
till
such
time
as
hée
is
lost
,
when
that
with
many
sighs
and
teares
it
ought
to
bée
bewailed
.
Who
is
he
that
would
not
séeme
to
be
a
good
child
vnto
his
parents
,
if
he
do
well
consider
how
troublesome
his
bringing
vp
hath
bene
vnto
them
,
and
how
that
his
life
is
but
a
burthen
of
anger
and
sorrowes
,
sonnes
of
great
griefe
,
a
continuall
labour
&
timerous
care
?
How
many
times
are
we
the
occasion
to
make
frustrate
their
desires
,
&
a
breaking
of
their
sound
sléepes
,
taking
awaie
their
stomackes
,
that
they
cannot
eate
,
and
with
our
fained
teares
,
disturbe
their
p●●sures
?
How
many
sodain
feares
&
griefs
caused
by
the
va●●ance
of
our
actions
,
and
many
times
the
disgrace
and
death
of
the
sonnes
,
is
cause
of
the
death
of
their
mothers
.
And
the
which
is
more
,
many
with
the
ouermuch
pleasure
and
ioy
receiued
,
to
heare
how
that
their
children
be
aliue
,
dieth
sodainlie
,
as
it
chanced
vnto
those
two
,
the
same
daie
that
they
returned
vnto
Rome
,
that
dyd
remaine
and
escaped
from
the
losse
of
Trasimeno
,
when
as
they
sawe
their
sonnes
aliue
,
whereas
before
it
was
certified
them
that
they
were
slaine
,
and
hauing
no
measure
to
eschue
so
great
and
sodaine
ioy
,
dyd
die
presentlie
therewith
.
Therefore
séeing
that
the
loue
of
the
parents
is
so
great
vnto
their
children
,
he
is
worthy
of
great
punishment
that
doth
not
honour
them
,
and
shall
haue
lesse
reason
to
leaue
vndone
,
that
which
is
a
common
Prouerbe
,
that
the
whole
fault
consisteth
in
the
Father
,
for
that
many
times
the
hardnesse
of
the
Father
is
profitable
vnto
the
sonne
,
and
alwaie
the
cockering
of
them
is
hurtfull
,
because
we
that
be
sonnes
and
youthfull
,
be
alwaies
stubburne
,
and
cannot
be
mollified
but
by
stubburnnesse
,
as
many
times
it
falleth
out
,
that
the
pittiful
Chyrurgion
leaueth
the
wound
euill
cured
,
wherof
did
grow
the
olde
custome
that
was
vsed
amongst
the
Romanes
,
that
not
alonelie
Princes
and
Consulles
,
vnto
whome
was
giuen
the
whole
power
ouer
the
common
wealth
against
such
as
did
offend
,
but
also
all
perticular
fathers
had
iurisdiction
ouer
their
children
,
to
punish
them
,
and
to
put
them
in
prison
,
tormenting
them
,
yea
,
and
to
put
them
to
death
.
The
crueltie
of
Cassio
and
Fuluio
was
much
estéemed
in
putting
to
death
of
their
sonnes
,
not
for
that
they
did
hate
them
▪
but
because
they
coulde
not
correct
their
customes
.
So
that
the
sonne
must
vnderstand
that
the
good
Father
must
not
séeke
who
should
cocker
&
make
much
of
him
,
but
one
that
may
doe
him
good
.
And
many
thinges
doth
séeme
vnto
the
sonne
to
be
verie
hard
&
terrible
,
which
seemeth
vnto
the
Father
to
be
verie
profitable
.
Neither
is
he
deceiued
therein
,
for
that
his
affection
is
not
with
passion
,
and
youth
hath
no
more
consideration●
than
that
which
is
before
his
eies
,
and
waring
riper
in
yéeres
,
he
séeth
many
things
a
far●e
of
,
and
alwaies
the
seueritie
of
the
father
,
is
more
profitable
vnto
the
sonne
than
méeknesse
.
It
is
a
strange
thing
to
consider
,
that
a
man
can
better
suffer
the
hardnesse
of
a
tyrannous
maister
,
than
of
his
owne
Father
,
the
which
although
they
be
not
alowable
,
yet
should
not
they
reproue
their
fathers
,
but
rather
suffer
them
.
We
reade
that
Alexander
did
neuer
incurr●
so
great
reproch
,
as
in
that
hee
dyd
not
onelie
rebuke
his
Father
,
but
that
hée
was
also
enuious
,
and
receiued
griefe
at
his
ertollings
.
Wise
men
saie
,
that
there
is
no
superioritie
on
the
earth
more
iuster
than
that
of
the
Father
,
nor
more
honester
subiection
than
that
of
the
sonne
,
therefore
let
children
honour
their
parents
,
&
shew
their
due
duties
vnto
them
with
reuerence
:
and
not
doing
the
same
,
it
is
a
iust
sentence
that
rebellious
sonnes
doth
suffer
.
And
this
punishment
is
not
so
small
,
but
vnto
him
that
suffereth
,
it
séemeth
verie
much
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
that
doth
so
much
afflict
and
torment
the
minde
of
man
,
as
an
iniurious
word
spoken
by
a
rebellious
childe
.
And
as
by
these
two
worthie
knights
,
all
children
may
take
an
ensample
,
so
lykewise
there
is
to
be
noted
,
the
great
parte
that
is
their
fathers
,
as
appeareth
by
this
Emperour
,
that
deserued
to
be
so
estéemed
and
beloued
with
so
great
reuerence
of
his
sonnes
,
considering
his
excellent
vertues
,
and
the
great
loue
that
he
bare
vnto
them
,
did
constraine
them
for
to
loue
him
,
and
shew
him
humble
reuerence
.
Also
when
that
their
sons
doe
not
proue
to
be
good
,
then
ought
their
Fathers
to
suffer
and
beare
with
them
,
til
such
time
as
their
childhood
is
past
,
then
after
as
they
doe
increase
,
to
correct
their
vnbrideled
nature
,
forcing
them
to
leaue
their
vice
,
wherto
they
are
inclined
,
and
to
learne
to
embrace
vertue
,
which
is
the
badge
of
all
Christians
.
Dauid
&
Methridates
king
of
Pontus
,
and
Seuerus
Emperour
of
Rome
,
did
suffer
and
beare
with
their
rebellyous
sonnes
.
Affricano
dyd
heartelie
loue
his
sonne
,
although
in
nothing
he
did
resemble
him
,
but
cleane
contrarie
to
him
in
his
vertues
.
Héere
we
will
leaue
these
admonitions
vnto
auncient
and
olde
men
,
who
hath
greater
authoritie
to
giue
them
.
Returning
to
our
Hystorie
,
which
saith
,
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
the
Empresse
Briana
,
receiued
meruailous
great
ioy
,
contentment
,
and
pleasure
,
to
sée
in
their
companie
their
two
so
valiant
and
obedient
sonnes
,
accompanied
with
so
high
and
〈◊〉
●ompanie
.
Likewise
they
were
ioyfull
that
the
Prince
Clauerindo
was
so
desirous
to
marrie
with
the
faire
Lindaraza
,
and
thereto
asked
the
good
wil
o●
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
,
who
at
the
request
and
desire
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
dyd
graunt
it
vnto
him
,
whereat
Clauerindo
receiued
great
ioye
and
pleasure
,
and
shewed
himselfe
verie
pleasant
and
gallant
for
the
same
,
and
wrote
vnto
the
king
Oristedes
his
father
,
that
he
would
thinke
well
thereof
,
and
to
request
the
Emperour
Trebatio
to
thinke
well
of
the
same
.
Thus
as
the
Court
of
that
mightie
Emperour
was
in
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
with
this
gallant
companie
,
came
thether
at
that
present
the
wise
Artemidoro
,
and
béeing
knowen
who
he
was
,
he
was
meruailouslie
well
receiued
of
the
Emperour
,
and
of
those
Princes
and
Knights
there
present
,
but
in
especiall
of
Rosicleer
,
who
calling
to
remembrance
what
he
had
sayd
and
done
for
him
,
did
beare
him
so
great
loue
as
vnto
his
naturall
brother
.
Héere
did
the
wise
Artemidoro
aske
the
Empresse
Briana
,
if
shée
did
remember
at
such
time
as
she
was
first
troubled
with
passions
,
how
that
a
Nymph
out
of
the
Fountaine
of
water
,
dyd
giue
her
comfort
and
consolation
,
giuing
her
to
vnderstand
that
it
was
done
by
his
arte
,
and
how
if
shee
dyd
call
it
well
to
remembrance
(
that
next
vnto
God
)
shée
was
by
that
consolation
comforted
at
that
present
,
who
séeing
that
al
that
which
the
wise
man
had
sayde
was
alreadie
fulfilled
and
come
to
passe
,
shée
knew
not
how
for
to
gratifie
him
for
so
greate
a
benefite
done
vnto
her
:
but
hée
was
meruailouslie
honoured
of
her
,
the
Emperour
,
his
sonnes
,
and
of
all
that
were
there
present
.
Then
did
Artemidoro
(
as
one
that
dyd
knowe
it
verie
well
)
make
manifest
all
that
had
passed
with
Rosicleer
,
from
the
time
of
his
first
birth
vnto
that
present
,
ioyntlie
with
all
that
which
had
passed
by
the
Emperour
with
the
Empresse
Briana
,
collected
into
one
booke
,
which
did
declare
all
things
perticularlie
,
as
though
he
had
béene
present
at
the
doing
:
whereat
the
Emperour
was
meruailouslie
ioyfull
,
&
gaue
vnto
the
wise
man
great
thankes
●or
the
same
.
So
that
the
Emperour
and
all
the
〈◊〉
Princes
and
knightes
that
dyd
reade
those
wonders
,
meruailed
greatlie
at
the
strange
thinges
which
Rosicleer
had
passed
,
and
were
verie
glad
that
all
his
trauailes
&
troubles
for
loue
were
brought
to
so
good
an
end
.
And
for
that
there
was
not
written
,
nor
anie
mencion
made
of
the
wonderful
acts
done
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
the
Emperour
dyd
aske
of
the
wise
man
wherfore
they
were
forgotten
?
Who
answered
him
in
the
presence
of
all
the
nobles
in
the
Court
,
that
hée
dyd
leaue
off
the
writing
of
them
,
for
that
there
was
another
greate
wise
man
who
had
better
intelligence
thereof
than
hée
,
and
had
the
charge
for
to
write
and
put
in
memorie
all
things
that
toucheth
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
how
that
before
long
time
doe
passe
they
shall
sée
him
in
that
Court
,
who
will
discouer
by
writing
so
many
wonderfull
and
straunge
acts
,
that
neuer
shall
bée
forgotten
so
long
as
the
worlde
endureth
.
And
although
the
mightie
Emperour
Trebatio
and
all
that
were
with
him
,
did
not
vnderstand
who
that
wise
man
should
be
of
whom
he
spake
of
,
yet
did
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
know
that
it
was
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
,
and
was
verie
gladde
to
heare
him
saie
that
he
would
come
vnto
that
Court
,
for
that
hée
desired
much
to
sée
him
,
with
his
nephew
king
Florion
,
and
did
not
forget
that
which
for
him
hée
had
done
,
and
was
verie
desirous
to
haue
opportunitie
to
gratifie
him
for
the
same
.
But
when
the
Prince
Clauerindo
had
tolde
vnto
him
the
misfortune
at
sea
that
happened
vnto
the
Prince
Brandizel
his
sorrow
was
so
great
,
that
many
daies
after
hée
verie
heauie
and
sadd●
,
thinking
verilie
that
his
verie
friend
Brandizel
had
béene
lost
.
But
the
wise
Artemidoro
who
knew
it
to
the
contrarie
,
to
put
remedie
to
his
sorrowe
,
tolde
him
that
hée
was
safe
and
sound
,
and
in
a
place
greatlie
to
his
contentment
,
and
how
that
he
shoulde
sée
him
verie
shortlie
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
gaue
him
great
thankes
for
the
same
,
and
the
wise
man
in
the
meane
time
that
he
was
in
the
Court
dyd
write
with
his
owne
hand
in
the
fore
front
of
that
mightie
Pallace
,
in
greate
Letters
,
that
all
men
might
reade
it
,
a
Prophesie
,
which
sayd
as
followeth
.
At
such
time
as
the
mightie
shepheard
hath
best
kept
&
gathered
together
his
●locke
,
shall
come
the
braue
and
stout
Lions
with
rauenous
and
hungrie
wrath
,
and
betwéene
her
and
the
most
stout
Lion
,
shall
passe
a
verie
cruell
and
perillous
contention
,
and
being
put
a
sunder
by
the
mightie
shepheard
,
the
stout
Lion
shall
fall
at
the
roaring
of
the
furious
Lions
,
and
for
a
long
time
shal
loose
his
name
,
till
such
time
as
the
roaring
of
the
sayd
Lions
doth
awake
him
,
and
with
her
strong
armes
raise
him
vp
againe
.
At
that
time
shal
the
mightie
shepheard
be
verie
heauie
,
and
there
shall
come
vppon
him
the
great
she
Beare
verie
irefull
,
and
in
her
companie
so
many
Wolues
and
dreadfull
Tygers
,
that
shall
make
all
the
world●
to
wonder
,
and
the
●locke
of
the
mightie
shepheard
by
them
shall
be
scattered
abrode
,
and
the
gréene
and
flowred
fields
shall
be
turned
into
red
coulour
,
and
the
earth
shal
séeme
as
though
it
had
rained
much
bloud
.
The
huge
and
mightie
riuers
shall
burst
out
of
their
course
,
and
the
wide
and
broade
seas
shall
chaunge
the
coulour
of
their
profound
waters
,
shewing
the
great
earthquake
that
shall
come
.
Then
afterward
the
daie
shall
come
,
that
the
Sunne
at
noone
tide
shal
be
〈◊〉
,
loosing
the
greater
part
of
his
light
and
brightnesse
,
a●
which
verie
instant
,
the
mig●tie
shepheard
shall
be
in
great
care
and
perplexitie
,
and
all
his
slock
dispearsed
abroade
,
and
at
the
point
to
be
lost
,
but
straight
waies
the
San
shal
〈◊〉
his
whole
brightnes
,
&
the
Lion
brought
by
the
stout
Lions
,
by
her
immortat
déeds
shall
recouer
his
lost
name
,
and
by
his
comming
,
the
mightie
shopheard
shall
gather
together
his
good
●locke
,
and
with
●o
great
courage
shall
returne
vpon
those
hungrie
Walu●s
〈◊〉
Tygers
,
that
they
〈◊〉
kil
the
most
part
of
them
,
and
those
withshall
remaine
,
shall
slie
and
leau●
the
Countrie
desolate
.
And
héere
the
Griffins
that
came
〈◊〉
the
new
world
against
the
mightie
shepheard
,
shal
lose
their
furious
wrath
and
betwixt
them
and
those
of
his
●lock
,
shal
be
made
great
friendship
and
very
profitable
.
The
she

with
the
mightie

,
shal
be
taken
prisoners
by

&
being
deliuered
by
the
stout
Lion
,
shal
be
made
friends
with
the
mightie
shepheard
.
And
at
the
request
of
the
Lyon
and
Lionesse
,
they
shall
come
together
,
and
of
that
societie
shall
proceede
one
that
the
deedes
past
,
shall
make
all
mortalitie
●e
forgotten
.
Beare
this
in
your
minde
,
for
as
I
haue
saide
,
so
it
shall
come
to
passe
.
This
Prophesie
béeing
written
by
the
wise
Artemidoro
,
the
Emperour
and
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
Knights
did
behold
it
.
And
as
they
vnderstoode
verie
little
what
it
did
signifie
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
at
the
great
vnderstanding
of
the
wise
man
:
and
desired
him
to
declare
somewhat
the
meaning
thereof
,
but
he
excused
himselfe
,
saying
,
that
it
was
not
giuen
vnto
him
for
to
declare
that
which
was
to
come
,
but
to
make
manifest
vnto
them
by
figures
:
for
that
if
it
should
fall
out
to
proue
to
the
contrarie
,
it
would
be
the
occasion
of
great
daunger
,
harme
&
perill
.
But
yet
notwithstanding
all
shal
come
to
passe
in
such
sort
,
that
the
time
shal
declare
it
,
and
make
it
most
manifest
.
These
&
many
other
things
did
this
wise
Artemidoro
declare
vnto
them
,
that
if
they
had
not
bene
of
noble
courage
,
his
prophesies
had
put
them
in
great
wonder
&
feare
.
So
they
being
in
great
ioye
,
pastimes
and
pleasures
in
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
(
although
to
the
contrarie
great
sorow
&
griefe
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
his
mistresse
,
was
not
there
present
)
this
Historie
doth
leaue
them
,
till
time
doe
serue
,
for
to
tell
you
what
Don
Siluerio
dyd
,
that
returned
vnto
great
Britaine
.
How
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
,
without
all
hope
of
the
recouery
of
the
Princes
Oliuia
,
her
returne
vnto
great
Britaine
,
and
of
all
that
was
determined
in
the
court
of
the
King
Oliuerio
.
Chap.
8.
THE
wrath
and
anger
was
very
great
that
Don
Siluerio
receued
,
in
that
he
was
past
all
hope
of
recouerie
of
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
by
reason
that
the
most
part
of
his
knights
were
slaine
,
and
she
remaining
in
the
power
of
Rosicleer
,
the
thing
that
he
most
loued
in
all
the
world
,
without
any
hope
of
recouerie
.
And
againe
,
séeing
that
the
princes
his
friends
with
the
king
Alamades
,
that
went
in
his
companie
,
became
his
enimies
,
and
likewise
remembring
the
great
furie
and
stoutnesse
of
them
with
whome
he
had
the
battaile
,
with
great
complaints
wepings
and
lamentations
,
he
bewayled
his
misfortune
,
which
was
vnto
him
so
contrarie
,
and
so
fauourable
vnto
his
enimies
.
So
in
the
ende
of
certaine
daies
after
his
departure
,
he
ariued
in
great
Britaine
,
and
going
a
land
he
sent
the
king
word
of
his
ariuall
,
appareling
himselfe
and
all
such
knights
as
came
with
him
in
black
and
mourning
apparell
,
and
so
entered
into
the
mightie
Citie
of
London
,
whereas
the
king
did
receue
him
,
to
whome
with
great
sorow
and
griefe
he
gaue
the
King
to
vnderstande
of
all
that
had
happened
vnto
him
at
the
sea
.
And
because
at
that
present
the
rancour
and
mallice
which
he
had
against
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
was
great
in
him
,
for
the
death
of
prince
Edward
his
sonne
,
he
was
very
glad
that
he
had
so
good
occasion
and
oportunitie
to
arme
himselfe
against
him
,
&
therefore
did
not
onely
comfort
the
prince
Don
Siluerio
to
folow
his
poysoned
enterprise
,
to
take
reuengement
against
him
,
but
did
rather
procure
to
kindle
his
wrath
the
more
,
in
saying
,
that
vnto
them
both
it
should
be
a
perpetuall
dishonour
,
if
they
did
not
procure
the
reuengement
,
the
iniurie
offered
was
so
great
,
and
that
it
were
better
for
them
to
dye
in
the
quarrell
,
then
to
liue
in
so
great
dishonour
for
euer
.
Then
the
Prince
who
desired
no
other
thing
,
but
verie
ioyfull
to
see
that
the
king
was
wholly
of
his
minde
and
determination
,
made
a
great
Othe
,
that
he
would
neuer
take
to
him
wife
in
marriage
,
till
such
time
as
that
great
iniurie
done
by
Rosicleer
,
were
reuenged
.
So
that
straight
〈◊〉
it
was
agréed
betwixt
them
both
,
that
it
should
be
〈◊〉
pra●●ise
to
take
reuengement
.
The
King
commaunded
all
the
nobles
of
his
Court
to
come
together
to
a
parle
,
&
being
come
together
,
he
put
them
in
remembraunce
of
the
death
of
his
sonne
prince
Edward
,
how
he
was
slaine
by
the
Emperour
Treba●●o
,
and
then
of
the
spoyling
and
carying
away
of
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
don●
by
his
sonne
Rosicleer
:
shewing
and
perswading
them
by
many
reasons
,
how
much
they
were
bound
to
procure
reuengement
of
that
great
iniurie
.
And
although
that
there
were
some
to
whome
the
determination
of
the
king
semed
nothing
good
,
yet
in
the
ende
they
all
concluded
and
agréed
,
that
all
should
be
done
as
he
thought
best
,
and
that
out
of
hand
they
should
begin
to
muster
and
procure
souldiers
and
men
of
war
to
be
made
in
a
readinesse
,
for
to
passe
the
seas
,
and
to
enter
into
Grecia
.
And
although
Don
Siluerio
had
there
with
him
manie
knights
of
Lusitania
,
yet
did
he
promise
to
retourne
into
his
countrie
,
and
to
bring
from
that
kingedome
,
and
also
o●t
of
Spaine
,
a
great
number
,
for
that
he
that
was
King●
of
Spaine
at
that
present
,
was
a
verie
great
friend
vnto
his
father
,
and
he
was
verie
certaine
that
he
would
not
denie
to
helpe
and
ayde
him
with
all
the
force
and
strength
he
could
possible
.
He
béeing
willing
to
put
all
things
in
effect
,
tooke
his
leaue
of
the
King
and
departed
straightwaies
from
great
Britaine
,
and
put
himselfe
vnto
the
rough
and
boysterous
Seas
,
taking
his
voyage
towards
Lusitania
.
In
the
meane
time
King
Oliuerio
,
did
ordaine
and
made
in
a
redinesse
all
the
people
that
possible
he
could
,
and
writ
his
letters
vnto
all
kinges
that
were
his
friends
,
as
well
Christians
as
Pagans
,
geuing
them
to
vnderstande
of
the
great
iniurie
and
wrong
done
vnto
him
,
in
murthering
his
onely
sonne
and
heire
of
his
kingdome
,
and
then
his
daughter
to
be
stolen
and
caried
away
:
requesting
of
them
all
fauour
possible
,
to
helpe
him
to
take
reuengement
for
the
same
.
〈◊〉
that
to
conclude
,
some
there
were
that
for
verie
friend●●ip
and
loue
,
did
ayde
him
.
And
other
some
for
the
ill
will
they
bare
vnto
the
Gréekes
,
of
very
enuie
of
their
prosperi●i●es
,
dyd
ayde
and
help
h●m
,
and
not
onely
with
their
people
,
but
with
their
owne
proper
persons
,
〈◊〉
vnto
the
King
Oliuerio
,
and
there
was
so
great
hast
and
diligence
made
in
the
executing
thereof
,
that
many
daies
was
not
past
,
whan
that
in
great
Britaine
there
was
ioyned
together
more
then
●ne
hundred
and
fiftie
thousand
knights
,
where
as
the
Historie
doth
lea●e
them
,
putting
all
things
in
good
order
,
as
appertained
vnto
so
valiant
an
enterprise
,
for
to
tell
you
of
other
things
that
happened
in
the
meane
time
.
How
that
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
did
craue
of
her
father
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
reuengement
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
how
the
Emperour
at
her
request
,
did
call
a
Parliament
,
and
what
happened
in
the
same
.
Chap.
9.
IN
great
confusion
and
alteration
remained
the
whole
Court
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
for
so
sodaine
departure
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
but
aboue
all
the
rest
,
was
the
fayre
Princes
Lindabrides
,
whose
lyfe
was
so
full
of
sorow
and
griefe
,
that
manie
times
she
was
at
the
point
of
death
.
And
there
was
nothing
that
could
comfort
her
▪
in
séeing
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
departed
and
returned
to
his
owne
countrie
,
and
was
verie
certaine
,
that
if
once
he
came
into
the
presence
of
the
princes
Claridiana
,
it
were
past
all
remedie
for
him
to
haue
her
any
more
in
his
remembraunce
,
so
that
she
might
v●rie
well
abandon
her selfe
of
all
hope
,
euer
to
sée
him
any
more
:
the
which
was
more
bitter
&
grieuous
vnto
her
,
then
death
.
And
considering
with
her selfe
by
reason
of
the
great
loue
she
bare
vnto
him
,
that
it
should
be
great
comfort
vnto
her
,
and
remedie
for
her
griefe
,
if
that
she
did
once
againe
returne
in●●
Grecia
,
by
what
maner
of
meanes
so
euer
it
was
she
cared
not
,
thinking
by
that
meanes
for
to
disturbe
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
he
shoulde
not
haue
a●ie
time
nor
space
for
to
serue
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
neither
for
to
marrie
with
her
,
for
the
which
to
put
in
effect
the
〈◊〉
nothing
so
good
as
for
to
craue
reuengement
of
the
Emperour
her
●ather
,
for
the
iniurie
done
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
which
might
be
the
occasion
that
he
with
all
his
power
should
passe
into
Grecia
,
and
to
tarrie
her
with
him
thether
to
be
crowned
Empres
of
Grecia
,
séeming
by
those
meanes
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
shall
be
constrained
to
doe
perforce
,
y●
before
he
wold
not
by
his
frée
will
,
the
which
she
put
in
vre
according
vnto
her
thought
.
And
as
many
times
the
Emperour
her
father
came
into
her
closet
to
visit
&
comfort
her
(
whereas
she
continuallie
remained
and
neuer
went
abro●e
)
vpon
a
daie
when
that
hée
was
fullest
of
griefe
comforting
her
,
whose
sorrow
pricked
him
to
the
verie
heart
,
for
the
greate
loue
hée
bare
vnto
her
.
The
Princesse
shedding
many
teares
from
her
christaline
eies
,
said
.
It
is
lost
labour
,
my
Lord
and
Father
,
for
to
comfort
or
giue
anie
consolation
vnto
this
vnhappie
and
vnfortunate
Damsell
your
Daughter
,
for
that
thers
is
nothing
that
can
remedie
nor
helpe
mée
but
onelie
the
death
,
the
which
if
the
high
Gods
were
so
pleased
,
were
so
high
●ee
,
that
I
could
not
make
an
end
of
this
my
speaking
,
for
that
death
were
a
great
deale
better
vnto
mee
,
than
to
liue
,
for
to
feele
and
suffer
so
great
an
iniurie
as
tha●
which
the
●nigh●
of
the
Sunne
hath
done
against
you
and
mee
,
for
if
you
my
Lord
would
consider
thereof
as
is
right
and
reason
,
you
woulde
leaue
off
com●orting
of
your
Daughter
,
and
〈◊〉
by
all
meanes
that
this
our
reproch
may
bée
〈◊〉
,
wherewith
if
p●esenc●ie
I
should
depart
out
of
this
world
,
I
should
g●e
with
comfort
,
but
of
the
〈…〉
that
from
their
high
Thro●e
they
●ill
yeel●e
〈…〉
seeing
that
you
doe
so
little
este●me
it
.
〈◊〉
should
other
Damselles
of
base
birth
looke
for
,
〈◊〉
that
a
Damsell
of
so
high
estate
as
I
am
,
〈◊〉
oweth
participate
with
the
diuine
〈◊〉
of
the
h●gh
Gods
,
and
being
〈◊〉
by
one
alone
〈…〉
griefe
of
her
great
wrong
,
nor
anie
that
will
take
vpon
him
to
aunswere
the
quarrell
.
With
great
reason
therefore
from
this
daie
forwardes
,
may
your
vassalles
and
subiectes
take
heart
at
grasse
,
and
bée
bolde
to
rise
vp
against
you
,
seeing
that
you
will
put
vp
such
an
iniurie
and
euill
proffer
,
done
against
you
by
one
alone
Knight
,
and
an
enimie
vnto
your
lawe
,
and
will
suffer
mée
that
am
your
Daughter
to
liue
without
reuengement
.
My
Lord
and
Father
,
I
praie
you
beholde
and
consider
your
high
estate
,
which
is
such
,
that
all
the
kinges
and
Lordes
of
the
Orient
are
obedient
at
your
commandement
and
seruice
,
and
doeth
honour
and
reuerence
you
as
a
parent
and
kinsman
vnto
the
immortall
Gods
,
and
if
now
you
doe
dissemble
this
great
iniurie
which
vnto
you
and
mée
hath
béene
committed
,
without
making
cruell
reuengement
,
you
shall
neither
bée
feared
nor
estéemed
,
but
had
in
lesse
reputation
than
héeretofore
you
haue
béene
,
and
your
honour
ouerthrowne
from
the
throne
,
which
your
predecessours
vntill
this
present
daie
hath
maintained
and
vpholden
.
And
that
which
séemeth
to
bée
worst
of
all
,
is
,
that
the
diuine
prouidence
will
féele
and
acknowledge
part
of
this
great
iniurie
,
the
which
I
do
most
earnestlie
praie
and
desire
,
that
they
doe
not
execute
against
you
their
wrath
,
in
that
you
haue
neglected
to
take
reuengement
.
For
this
cause
onelie
hath
the
diuine
Gods
giuen
vnto
you
this
high
estate
,
exalting
and
placing
you
aboue
all
other
that
are
in
the
world
,
because
you
should
execute
iustlie
héere
vpon
the
earth
,
as
they
haue
ordained
in
their
diuine
Consistorie
.
This
faire
Damsell
had
not
so
soone
concluded
these
her
wordes
,
when
that
the
Emperour
her
Father
vnderstanding
the
effect
of
her
●omplaint
,
with
great
griefe
and
sorrowe
vnto
his
heart
,
béeing
full
of
anger
and
wrath
,
arose
vp
,
and
laide
his
hand
vpon
his
head
,
as
vpon
a
precious
relike
,
and
said
these
wordes
following
.
Héere
I
doe
sweare
vnto
thée
by
this
sacred
head
,
and
by
the
diuine
Deitie
,
that
I
doe
participate
of
the
immortall
Gods
,
for
to
goe
with
all
my
power
into
Grecia
,
and
in
reuengement
of
this
great
iniurie
to
mée
done
,
I
will
destroie
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
giue
a
cruell
and
dishonoured
death
vnto
his
wife
and
children
,
and
crowne
thée
my
daughter
,
for
Empresse
of
that
Empire
.
So
with
this
conclusion
,
&
without
speaking
anie
moe
words
,
hee
went
forth
of
her
Closet
,
and
calling
together
certaine
of
his
counsaile
,
he
concluded
that
a
Parliament
shoulde
bée
proclaimed
throughout
all
his
kingdomes
and
dominions
,
commaunding
all
Kinges
,
Princes
,
and
Nobles
of
the
same
,
to
come
vnto
the
sayd
Parliament
in
paine
of
death
.
Lykewise
hée
did
write
Letters
of
greate
loue
vnto
other
Ilandes
that
were
not
subiect
vnto
him
,
which
were
inhabited
with
Gyants
and
furious
people
,
requesting
them
to
come
vnto
his
Court
of
Parliament
.
Among
all
,
hée
wrote
a
Letter
vnto
Bradaman
Campeon
,

When
that
Bradaman
had
receiued
this
Letter
,
in
all
his
life
he
was
not
so
glad
and
ioyfull
,
for
that
occasion
dyd
so
●erue
,
that
hée
might
execute
that
great
anger
and
wrath
that
hée
had
conceiued
against
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
because
it
was
a
great
shame
vnto
him
that
hée
was
ouercome
by
him
,
and
hée
could
not
forget
that
great
iniarie
receiued
,
but
had
as
much
desire
to
bée
reuenged
for
the
same
.
And
you
shall
vnderstand
that
this
Bradaman
had
at
that
time
a
sonne
of
twentie
yéeres
olde
,
the
most
brauest
and
●iercest
creature
that
euer
was
séene
by
men
:
of
whome
shall
bee
made
more
mencion
in
this
Hystorie
.
Bradaman
had
not
this
sonne
by
a
faire
Gentlewoman
,
but
of
the
cruellest
and
furious
in
condition
amongest
al
women
,
for
that
after
that
by
the
mightie
power
of
his
person
he
came
to
bée
Lorde
ouer
the
Orientall
Ilands
,
which
was
a
kinde
of
people
which
for
their
fiercenesse
neuer
before
could
be
brought
in
subiection
,
he
determined
within
himselfe
,
for
that
he
would
not
that
that
Segniorie
should
be
lost
after
his
death
)
to
procure
to
haue
so
valiant
a
sonne
,
who
for
the
worthinesse
of
his
person
should
be
sufficient
to
sustaine
that
estate
,
as
he
did
get
it
in
his
life
time
.
And
with
this
determination
and
desire
,
he
made
many
sacrifices
vnto
the
Gods
,
desiring
them
to
giue
him
such
a
sonne
to
bée
his
heire
,
of
no
lesse
force
and
strength
than
he
was
for
the
defence
of
those
kingdomes
.
At
the
same
time
there
was
in
one
of
those
Ilandes
a
woman
of
so
stout
and
furious
condition
,
&
of
so
great
strength
,
that
with
her
owne
handes
shée
slew
a
great
number
of
gyants
,
and
other
terrible
and
dreadfull
beasts
.
Bradaman
did
know
her
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
nature
working
in
her
by
the
will
of
the
high
Gods
,
shée
was
deliuered
of
that
furious
and
fierce
sonne
,
and
gaue
him
to
name
Bramarant
.
At
whose
birth
Bradaman
his
Father
was
verie
ioyfull
,
and
caused
him
for
to
bée
nourished
with
the
milke
of
Lions
and
Tygers
,
and
other
●arious
beas●es
,
such
as
were
to
be
found
in
those
partes
,
and
would
neuer
consent
that
hée
should
proue
of
his
mothers
breasts
,
for
that
he
would
his
sonne
should
be
the
more
fierce
and
strong
.
In
this
sort
hée
was
nourished
,
so
that
afterward
it
appeareth
that
the
double
strength
and
fiercenesse
of
the
Father
and
o●
his
mother
,
was
comprehended
in
him
,
with
the
aide
of
the
milke
that
he
sucked
,
which
did
worke
such
effect
in
him
,
that
when
he
came
to
twelue
yéeres
of
age
,
he
would
go
alone
into
the
deserts
&
mountaines
,
without
anie
armour
more
than
certain
sodden
skins
hardned
in
the
Sun
,
and
would
seeke
out
the
strong
Lions
and
fierce
Tygers
,
with
other
furious
beasts
,
and
all
that
euer
he
could
take
,
he
would
teare
them
to
peeces
with
his
hands
,
as
though
they
had
bene
young
and
tender
Kids
.
He
would
eate
no
other
meate
in
all
the
time
of
his
hunting
,
but
the
milke
of
those
she
wild
beasts
that
he
met
withall
,
and
sometimes
of
the
flesh
of
the
most
fu●ious
be●st
that
he
killed
,
and
that
should
be
rawe
.
But
when
that
hée
grew
vnto
more
yeres
,
he
left
of
his
hunting
of
wild
beasts
,
and
fell
to
exercising
himselfe
in
armour
&
feates
of
armes
,
in
such
sort
,
that
his
great
force
and
strength
was
verie
déere
vnto
a
great
number
,
for
that
he
would
neuer
heare
reason
in
the
triall
of
his
strength
,
as
did
become
good
and
curteous
knightes
,
but
without
anie
occasion
in
the
wo●lde
,
●ee
would
haue
contention
with
all
them
that
he
met
withall
,
béeing
armed
,
without
anie
feare
,
if
they
were
two
,
twentie
,
or
thirtie
,
with
them
all
hée
woulde
contend
and
kill
them
,
tearing
them
in
péeces
with
so
great
c●uelt●e
,
that
hée
was
feared
of
all
,
&
could
finde
none
that
was
able
to
make
r●sistance
against
him
,
although
all
the
〈◊〉
of
those
Ilands
were
verie
stout
and
couragious
,
and
almost
all
Gyants
.
And
●or
that
Nature
dyd
shew
her selfe
●uch
●auourable
vnto
Bramarant
,
the
Hystorie
sayth
that
hee
was
not
in
stature
of
his
bodie
so
〈…〉
,
but
hee
was
as
bigge
as
anie
knight
might
〈…〉
Gyant
,
and
of
so
mightie
,
huge
,
and
great
members
,
that
whatsoeuer
hée
lacked
in
his
height
,
hée
〈◊〉
it
comprehended
in
his
bignesse
,
and
was
of
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
there
was
no
equalitie
in
that
of
Milo
,
of
whom
they
saie
,
that
there
was
not
his
lyke
in
all
the
whole
world
,
for
that
he
dyd
things
that
séemed
to
bée
incredible
to
all
that
dyd
sée
them
,
and
besides
his
great
strength
,
he
was
so
swi●t
and
light
,
that
he
would
ouertake
Lions
,
and
other
wilde
beasts
in
the
plaine
running
after
them
▪
This
young
Bramarant
séeing
himselfe
to
bée
so
pu●sant
and
mightie
aboue
all
others
,
was
so
stout
and
proude
,
that
at
such
time
as
he
came
to
twentie
yéeres
of
age
,
there
was
not
one
(
if
hée
were
displeased
with
him
)
that
durst
come
into
his
presence
,
so
that
in
all
those
Oriental
Ilands
he
was
feared
,
&
more
estéemed
than
his
Father
,
and
was
not
content
that
they
had
him
for
their
Lord
,
but
also
would
bée
worshipped
of
his
as
their
principall
God
,
and
said
that
al
the
Gods
the
which
they
did
worshippe
,
had
no
power
ouer
him
,
neither
were
they
equall
in
valour
.
And
Bradaman
his
Father
séeing
him
so
feared
and
reuerenced
of
all
,
and
how
great
and
mightie
his
strength
&
fiercenesse
was
,
was
thereof
excéedinglie
〈◊〉
ioyfull
,
beléeuing
of
a
certaine
,
that
it
was
not
possible
for
him
to
loose
his
kingdomes
,
hauing
so
valiant
and
strong
a
sonne
.
So
at
such
time
as
the
Letter
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
came
vnto
his
hands
,
there
was
present
with
him
his
sonne
Bramarant
,
who
when
that
hee
heard
the
Letter
read
,
he
tooke
a
great
desire
for
to
goe
with
them
into
Grecia
,
and
thought
the
time
long
to
sée
himselfe
on
the
iourney
,
and
requested
his
Father
that
hée
might
goe
with
him
,
for
that
hée
would
that
his
mightie
power
were
manifest
vnto
all
the
worlde
.
Then
Bradaman
who
desired
no
other
thing
did
graunt
him
lisence
,
and
out
of
hand
they
entered
their
iourney
towards
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
Bramarant
caused
to
bee
made
for
himselfe
armour
all
of
little
bones
of
small
fishes
that
they
finde
in
those
seas
,
of
so
great
hardnesse
,
that
neither
sword
nor
anie
other
weapon
could
cut
or
breake
it
,
it
was
of
the
same
making
that
the
Princes
Meridian
his
armour
was
,
which
afterward
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
●ad
,
yet
this
of
M●●idian
was
more
●i●er
and
of
greater
●orce
.
Bramarant
caused
his
armour
to
bée
garnished
with
golde
and
precious
stones
,
wherwith
after
they
were
made
,
hée
was
so
proude
and
furious
,
that
hee
had
neithe●
seare
nor
dreade
of
all
the
worlde
.
Then
Bradaman
called
before
him
twelue
kings
,
Captaines
of
his
Ilandes
,
who
were
as
the
Hystorie
declareth
great
and
mightie
Gyants
,
and
in
the
companie
of
them
and
his
sonne
Bramarant
tooke
his
iourney
towards
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Alycandio
.
So
when
they
came
thether
,
they
were
of
the
Emperour
meruallouslie
well
receiued
and
entertained
,
as
of
him
that
séemed
to
haue
great
néede
of
their
helpe
.
In
the
meane
time
that
they
there
tarried
,
till
all
the
whole
hoast
were
ioyned
together
,
Bramarant
did
many
&
mightie
feates
of
armes
,
wherein
he
gaue●ful
testimonie
who
he
was
,
putting
so
great
wonder
in
all
them
that
did
behold
him
,
that
with
great
admiration
they
sayd
,
that
the
Gods
did
put
vpon
that
knight
all
their
powers
and
strengths
,
for
the
punishment
and
destruction
of
the
Christians
.
Wherewith
the
Emperour
was
verie
ioyfull
,
and
did
them
all
great
honour
,
and
it
seemed
vnto
him
,
that
if
they
alone
with
their
people
should
passe
into
Grecia
,
they
were
sufficient
to
destroye
the
whole
Empire
and
power
of
the
Christians
.
How
the
Emperour
Alicandro
did
consult
with
the
Nobles
of
his
Court
,
about
their
iourney
into
Grecia
,
and
what
Bramarant
did
concerning
the
same
.
Chap.
10.
AFter
that
the
Parliament
was
proclaimed
by
the
commandement
of
〈◊〉
Emperour
Alicandro
,
there
were
few
〈…〉
Lordes
amongst
the
Pagans
in
Asia
but
came
thether
,
and
b●eing
all
together
in
the
greate
Citie
of
Neptaya
,
the
Emperour
entered
into
the
Parliament
house
with
all
his
whole
assemblie
of
Kings
,
Princes
,
and
other
noble
men
,
whe●eas
there
was
placed
his
Emperiall
seate
in
his
roome
appointed
,
hang●●
round
about
with
cloth
of
golde
,
and
somewhat
more
below
was
the
places
for
the
rest
made
,
of
verie
fine
and
shining
siluer
,
whereas
this
mightie
Emperour
when
he
was
set
in
his
Emperiall
seate
(
which
was
all
of
fine
gold
and
precious
stones
)
and
all
the
other
kings
and
Lords
,
euerie
one
in
his
degrée
,
which
was
to
the
number
of
more
than
one
hundreth
,
silence
being
commanded
,
with
great
maiestie
of
his
roiall
person
,
hée
dyd
pronounce
vnto
them
these
wordes
following
.
LOiall
subiets
,
true
vassalls
,
and
my
verie
friendes
,
immortal
thanks
I
render
vnto
the
high
Go●s
,
not
onlie
for
that
it
hath
pleased
them
to
place
me
in
this
high
and
sacred
estate
,
in
making
mee
Lorde
ouer
so
many
Countries
and
innumerable
riches
,
but
also
for
that
it
hath
pleased
their
dit●ne
maiesties
to
consent
(
which
is
a
thing
more
to
bee
estéemed
than
all
the
rest
)
that
amongst
so
many
mightie
kings
and
noble
Lordes
that
are
héere
present
,
and
subiect
vnto
this
sacred
Empire
,
there
is
not
one
amongst
you
but
hath
béene
(
and
I
suppose
will
bée
)
loiall
and
faithfull
,
which
is
the
thing
that
Princes
ought
to
haue
in
greatest
price
,
for
that
it
is
no
lesse
perillous
and
daungerous
vnto
a
King
that
hath
a
peruerse
and
an
vnreasonable
subiect
,
than
for
a
man
of
meaner
or
baser
sorte
to
haue
a
strong
and
mightie
enimie
.
So
that
now
for
that
I
am
fullie
perswaded
and
certefied
of
the
great
fidelitie
&
truth
that
you
haue
alwaies
vsed
vnto
me
.
I
haue
requested
you
al
to
come
vnto
this
assembly
&
Court
of
Parliament
,
for
to
communicate
with
you
couching
a
matter
whereof
you
are
not
ignorant
,
not
for
that
therein
you
should
do
ought
to
accomplish
my
will
,
but
that
you
should
aide
and
helpe
me
with
your
good
counsailes
,
for
that
in
great
and
profound
matters
one
must
propone
,
and
many
must
determine
.
I
thinke
it
is
not
néedfull
to
make
much
relating
thereof
,
because
it
is
well
knowen
vnto
you
all
,
how
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
of
Grecia
came
into
this
land
,
and
was
receiued
&
entertained
by
vs
,
with
so
great
loue
and
good
will
,
as
though
it
had
bene
the
Prince
Meridian
our
sonne
.
Likewise
how
that
it
was
our
pleasure
to
marrie
him
vnto
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
our
daughter
,
the
which
was
almost
concluded
and
celebrated
,
whether
it
was
his
euil
hap
,
or
vnhappie
fortune
,
vpon
a
night
he
departed
,
and
left
our
daughter
flouted
,
&
vs
astonied
&
ashamed
,
in
recompence
of
the
great
honour
that
we
did
and
shewed
vnto
him
.
All
the
which
doth
not
grieue
vs
so
much
for
our
parte
,
for
the
euill
sact
done
vnto
vs
,
as
it
doth
for
the
great
offence
done
therein
vnto
the
immortall
Gods
,
beleeuing
that
a
greater
could
not
haue
bene
inuented
vpon
the
earth
,
nor
a
thing
more
contrarie
against
their
diuine
maiestie
.
What
Emperor
,
King
,
Prince
,
or
Knight
amongst
mortall
men
,
that
durst
be
so
bold
as
to
refuse
or
take
vnto
his
wife
the
Princes
Lindabrides
,
being
successour
,
descending
from
the
diuine
stocke
,
but
this
onelie
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Of
truth
and
with
great
reason
may
the
diuine
Gods
execute
their
wrath
vppon
vs
,
if
so
be
that
we
doe
not
reuenge
this
great
iniurie
done
vnto
vs
,
and
offence
vnto
their
diuine
maiesties
:
and
with
no
lesse
reason
their
diuine
iustice
may
fall
vpon
you
,
if
that
(
not
onely
with
your
subiects
and
goods
)
but
also
your selues
in
person
doe
not
procure
to
make
this
reuengement
.
A
man
ought
to
haue
a
respect
vnto
the
griefes
&
offences
done
vnto
themselues
,
but
much
more
the
wrongs
which
are
done
against
the
high
Gods
.
We
doe
well
vnderstand
,
that
for
to
take
reuengement
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
it
cannot
be
so
easilie
done
,
but
it
will
cost
vs
many
people
and
much
treasure
,
yea
,
and
our
owne
persons
in
the
performance
thereof
,
but
yet
considering
your
mightie
power
,
strength
,
and
valiant
hearts
,
we
doe
beleeue
that
it
doth
not
astonish
you
,
neither
do
you
feare
to
take
vppon
you
this
iourney
,
for
that
greate
delayes
doth
proceede
of
little
prudence
,
and
feare
,
of
great
cowardnesse
,
but
heroicall
knightes
,
such
as
doe
procure
to
haue
a
fame
in
al
the
world
,
with
equal
courage
ought
to
offer
their
persons
in
doubtfull
attempts
as
well
as
in
prosperous
affaires
,
&
with
like
constancie
to
harden
themselues
against
afflictions
,
as
vnto
delights
&
pleasures
.
Of
our
owne
part
,
we
doe
saie
,
that
although
our
yéeres
doth
require
more
to
take
rest
&
●ase
in
our
owne
Countrie
,
than
to
trauaile
into
another
,
yet
if
it
so
be
concluded
that
we
shall
take
this
iourney
vpon
vs
,
so
farre
off
,
and
so
costlie
,
wée
will
that
you
doe
no
more
therein
,
than
you
sée
vs
to
doe
,
as
trauailing
by
the
waie
,
nauigating
by
Sea
,
cléering
our
passage
,
assaulting
our
enimies
,
in
all
these
wée
will
bée
the
first
,
and
not
the
last
.
To
conclude
,
our
verie
good
friends
are
desirous
to
be
reuenged
of
this
great
iniurie
done
vnto
vs
by
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
&
that
you
wold
not
thinke
(
agreeing
héereto
with
vs
)
that
these
our
white
haires
shall
lacke
good
wil
for
to
passe
into
Grecia
,
for
that
if
once
wée
come
thether
▪
wée
hope
in
the
immortall
Gods
,
(
not
alonelie
to
bee
reuenged
of
this
iniury
done
vnto
vs
)
but
also
to
make
subiect
vnto
our
consecrated
estate
that
whole
Empire
.
And
wée
are
fullie
perswaded
that
the
diuine
prouidence
hath
permitted
this
offence
to
be
done
,
that
we
should
haue
occasion
for
to
destroie
the
whole
power
of
the
Christians
.
We
do
not
meane
héereby
to
bring
vnto
your
remembrance
,
how
oftentimes
it
happened
in
times
past
in
this
Countrie
,
the
Emperors
&
Captaines
of
Rome
came
,
not
onlie
to
make
reuengement
of
the
iniuries
&
offences
done
vnto
themselues
,
but
also
for
them
that
were
their
friends
&
subiects
vnto
the
Empire
of
Rome
,
in
executing
whereof
,
they
did
neither
respect
the
largenesse
of
their
iourney
,
expenses
of
their
treasures
,
neither
the
trauaile
of
their
persons
,
so
that
their
camps
&
armies
were
as
common
in
Asia
,
as
in
Italie
or
Rome
:
so
that
in
consideration
,
if
those
onelie
for
the
honor
of
their
friends
did
little
estéem●
their
long
trauailes
into
those
Countries
,
wherefore
should
we
thinke
it
much
,
in
reuenging
of
our
owne
iniuries
,
to
passe
into
Grecia
.
Wée
desire
the
high
Gods
that
no
such
cowardnesse
may
be
found
in
your
noble
minds
,
neither
so
many
mightie
kings
&
Princes
as
be
here
present
to
consent
to
the
contrarie
,
but
that
this
great
iniurie
should
be
reuenged
.
Now
séeing
that
we
haue
declared
vnto
you
the
occasion
of
calling
you
together
vnto
this
our
court
of
Parliament
,
we
do
desire
you
so
let
vs
haue
your
iudgements
vpon
this
that
we
haue
proponed
,
hoping
to
haue
it
in
so
ample
sort
as
alwaies
wée
haue
receiued
at
your
hands
.
When
all
those
that
were
present
with
the
Emperour
had
well
heard
the
words
that
were
spoken
,
and
that
concerning
the
same
he
had
asked
their
counsailes
,
yet
his
determined
purpose
was
for
to
passe
into
Grecia
,
so
that
ther
was
amongst
them
some
that
were
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
for
the
same
,
and
other
some
that
did
not
like
of
the
iourney
,
as
it
is
a
naturall
thing
amongst
men
,
in
like
affaires
to
be
of
contrarie
opinions
.
The
Emperour
at
that
time
did
looke
for
their
answere
,
but
nothing
was
supplied
,
til
such
time
as
they
did
all
together
desire
the
old
king
of
Gedrosia
in
the
name
of
them
all
to
answere
vnto
the
Emperours
proposition
,
for
that
he
was
estéemed
in
all
those
kingdomes
to
be
wise
,
and
one
that
was
well
séene
in
the
warres
,
and
as
it
hath
béene
told
you
in
this
Hystorie
,
he
was
well
seene
in
Astrologie
,
who
being
by
them
verie
much
importuned
,
arose
vp
and
spake
as
followeth
.
The
speech
which
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
made
vnto
the
Emperor
Alicandro
before
all
those
high
kings
&
nobles
concerning
the
passage
of
their
armie
into
Grecia
.
MOst
high
and
mightie
Emperour
&
our
Lord
,
I
would
verie
faine
excuse
my selfe
to
giue
my
iudgement
,
considering
this
grieuous
case
,
which
you
haue
declared
vnto
vs
,
for
that
you
haue
it
for
custome
to
aske
counsaile
of
your
nobles
in
causes
of
importaunce
and
things
requisite
.
And
yet
in
the
end
saie
they
what
they
can
,
yéelding
their
iudgements
according
vnto
reason
,
all
things
must
be
done
according
vnto
your
desire
&
will
,
whether
it
be
good
or
bad
,
giuing
to
vnderstand
,
that
the
counsaile
which
you
doe
aske
of
your
nobles
&
subiects
,
is
more
to
complie
with
them
,
than
anie
good
will
you
haue
to
be
counsailed
.
But
yet
for
all
this
,
although
I
doe
know
,
that
my
iudgement
in
this
case
will
bée
as
much
as
nothing
,
and
will
bée
conceiued
to
another
intent
&
purpose
contrarie
vnto
my
meaning
,
yet
will
I
declare
it
,
for
that
héereafter
you
shall
not
complaine
at
anie
time
of
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
in
that
he
did
not
aduise
you
in
time
that
you
might
proue
your
fortune
.
And
héere
I
protest
before
the
immortall
Gods
,
that
this
which
I
doe
pretend
to
saie
vnto
you
,
is
not
so
much
for
the
feare
&
dread
the
which
I
haue
of
the
Gréekes
,
as
it
is
for
the
great
loue
&
good
wil
which
I
do
beare
vnto
you
and
to
al
our
Countrie
.
I
would
not
(
most
mightie
Lord
)
that
you
shuld
put
so
great
confidence
&
trust
in
this
your
puisant
&
high
estate
,
thinking
therewith
to
be
verie
firme
and
sure
,
voide
of
the
subiection
of
vncertaine
and
immutable
fortune
,
and
neuer
to
slide
or
fall
from
the
high
throne
in
which
you
are
exalted
,
if
you
do
beléeue
this
to
be
true
.
There
are
many
things
past
in
this
world
long
since
of
mightie
Princes
,
that
if
you
will
enter
into
iudgement
of
them
rightlie
,
as
you
ought
for
to
doe
,
you
shall
plainlie
sée
and
perceiue
that
it
is
all
false
and
contrarie
,
as
a
spectacle
of
many
Caesars
Romanes
,
in
which
time
past
were
Lords
and
rulers
ouer
all
the
world
,
as
Iulius
Caesar
,
Caio
,
Caligula
,
Nero
,
Claudio
,
Galba
,
Oton
,
Vitelio
,
Domiciano
,
Comodo
,
Pertinax
,
Basiano
,
Macrino
,
Heliogabilo
,
Belusiano
,
Valeriano
,
Galiego
,
Probo
,
Iuliano
,
Bauio
,
Constantio
,
Valente
,
Graciano
,
Valentiniano
,
and
an
infinit
number
more
,
which
hath
béene
ouerthrowen
from
the
imperiall
throne
in
the
which
Fortune
did
exalt
them
,
and
no
other
occasion
to
the
same
,
but
that
all
humane
things
hath
no
securitie
nor
firmnesse
,
and
hée
that
is
exalted
and
set
in
the
highest
of
the
whéele
of
mooueable
Fortune
,
the
same
is
most
apt
and
readiest
to
fall
.
And
in
this
thing
you
may
beléeue
me
,
that
looke
how
much
the
humane
power
doth
surmount
,
so
much
is
the
Empire
,
or
what
estate
so
euer
it
be
,
subiect
vnto
fortune
,
and
all
the
great
fire
laden
with
wood
,
is
charged
with
the
mightie
windes
in
the
highest
partes
:
euen
so
likewise
(
most
mightie
Emperour
)
this
estate
is
not
so
high
,
but
it
hath
with
it
great
perill
,
so
that
you
néede
not
to
goe
and
séeke
other
daungers
in
strange
Countries
so
farre
from
this
,
that
when
it
shal
fall
out
,
all
thing
to
succéede
and
bée
prosperous
vnto
you
,
yet
shall
it
bée
greate
meruaile
,
if
you
doe
returne
backe
againe
aliue
into
your
owne
countrie
,
how
much
more
the
victorie
against
the
Gréekes
is
so
vncertaine
,
and
as
you
may
make
iust
accompt
thereof
,
although
you
think
it
to
the
contrarie
,
without
any
consideration
of
peruerse
fortune
,
which
may
so
fall
out
,
that
they
shall
remaine
al
libertie
,
and
you
deceiued
:
although
the
host
of
men
which
you
may
carie
,
wil
be
a
great
multitude
,
mightie
and
strong
,
yet
many
times
it
falleth
out
,
that
the
greatest
host
is
ouercome
by
the
lesser
,
as
it
happened
vnto
Xerxes
,
and
vnto
Darius
,
and
a
great
number
more
,
who
with
hosts
of
innumerable
companie
of
people
were
destroyed
and
ouercome
.
Likewise
before
that
this
shall
come
in
effect
,
if
you
doe
well
consider
,
and
haue
an
eye
into
the
great
angers
and
molestacions
,
presumptions
,
alterations
,
and
contrarieties
,
which
doth
happen
daylie
in
these
mightie
hostes
.
I
beleue
that
you
will
think
it
better
to
remaine
and
liue
at
home
in
your
owne
countrie
,
then
to
passe
into
Grecia
with
so
mightie
an
host
,
for
that
there
is
no
iniuries
nor
cruelties
that
may
be
compared
vnto
the
condicions
of
men
of
warre
.
And
these
which
you
do
think
to
be
your
owne
,
it
may
so
fall
out
,
that
for
a
little
occasion
,
they
will
change
their
copie
,
and
perhaps
betray
&
●el
them
,
so
that
of
knights
and
subiects
,
they
may
become
thy
enimies
.
Behold
and
consider
of
that
great
and
mightie
Alexander
,
who
in
his
time
accompted
himselfe
of
no
lesse
estate
then
you
doe
now
at
this
present
,
yet
that
which
all
his
enimies
could
not
conclude
and
bring
to
passe
,
was
finished
by
his
owne
knights
,
in
killing
him
by
poyson
.
If
you
wil
that
I
shall
declare
vnto
you
many
other
examples
by
Emperours
of
Rome
:
beholde
who
slew
Pertinax
,
and
the
two
Maximos
,
father
and
sonne
,
Baluino
,
Maximo
,
Probo
,
Graciano
,
&
Valentiniano
,
the
least
of
all
these
were
good
&
valiant
men
,
and
yet
slaine
by
the
hands
of
those
of
their
host
.
Likewise
I
will
declare
the
great
perills
and
misfortunes
that
happeneth
at
the
sea
,
by
the
which
you
must
of
necessitie
passe
this
your
great
multitude
of
people
,
I
would
it
were
not
my
fortune
to
speake
,
but
could
excuse
my selfe
,
for
that
it
is
well
knowen
vnto
all
men
,
how
readie
the
mightie
windes
are
to
augment
perills
,
the
mightie
,
greate
and
vnmercifull
waues
,
the
hidden
rockes
vnder
the
water
,
the
continuall
tempests
and
whirle
windes
.
What
is
that
so
strong
,
that
the
power
of
the
heauens
and
the
sea
doe
not
rent
and
teare
all
to
péeces
,
and
carrie
awaie
by
sodaine
stormes
and
tempests
of
the
windes
,
and
therefore
it
is
said
that
the
going
to
the
sea
is
easie
,
but
the
comming
from
the
sea
is
perillous
,
but
putting
all
the
perills
and
daungers
a
parte
,
and
that
Fortune
wil
shew
her selfe
fauourable
vnto
you
in
all
these
affaires
,
and
that
with
prosperous
windes
and
times
you
are
entered
into
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
yet
I
would
you
should
consider
and
knowe
,
how
doubtfull
is
the
victorie
at
that
present
,
for
that
in
all
thinges
hope
is
doubtfull
,
and
much
more
in
great
warres
and
contentions
.
Uerie
prudent
and
well
experimented
in
armes
was
hée
that
saide
,
that
there
is
nothing
that
hath
his
ende
more
vncertaine
than
the
warre
,
and
that
it
is
farre
better
a
certaine
and
sure
peace
,
than
the
hoped
victorie
.
One
thing
all
you
may
beléeue
of
a
certaine
,
that
verie
few
or
none
entereth
into
battaile
without
hope
of
victorie
,
but
yet
consider
if
it
bée
not
a
thing
that
hath
often
happened
,
the
losse
of
the
ouercome
to
be
lesse
than
of
the
ouercommers
.
How
many
times
doth
men
goe
vnto
the
warres
in
hope
to
haue
the
victorie
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
remaines
ouercome
,
and
that
which
is
worst
,
they
remaine
dead
in
the
field
,
so
that
they
returne
not
backe
againe
to
their
houses
ouercome
,
nor
with
victorie
.
And
yet
will
I
say
more
in
contradiction
of
your
hope
,
that
if
you
did
know
of
a
verie
certaintie
and
truth
,
that
the
victorie
should
be
on
your
parts
against
the
Gréekes
,
yet
for
all
that
I
will
not
let
to
giue
you
counsaile
for
to
remaine
in
quiet
at
home
in
your
owne
Countrie
,
for
as
the
victorie
is
alwaies
doubtfull
,
euen
so
many
times
it
is
sorrowfull
&
bloudie
,
&
is
not
got
with
ease
,
that
which
is
sought
with
perill
of
their
liues
,
&
déerelie
sold
that
is
bought
with
bloud
,
&
more
deerer
,
if
it
cost
their
liues
.
We
haue
séene
many
times
an
host
to
haue
the
victorie
,
&
yet
their
generall
slaine
in
the
battaile
,
&
this
is
without
all
doubt
,
that
some
shal
be
slaine
on
your
part
,
&
possible
it
may
be
your
lot
before
any
other
,
for
that
your
enimies
(
as
vpon
the
principall
staie
of
your
host
)
will
seeke
to
procure
your
death
.
How
sodainlie
&
vnlooked
for
may
you
méet
with
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
he
that
was
heere
in
your
court
,
at
which
tune
you
would
willingly
giue
all
that
now
you
do
possesse
,
for
to
be
as
farre
distant
from
him
as
you
are
at
this
present
.
Of
truth
according
vnto
his
furie
&
great
worthinesse
,
brauerie
&
stoutnesse
,
the
which
experience
hath
shewed
me
,
by
the
incredible
things
done
in
sight
of
al
men
in
this
court
,
surelie
I
shuld
thinke
no
securitie
in
my
life
,
although
I
were
in
the
middest
of
your
great
&
mighty
host
,
if
I
were
certaine
that
he
were
against
me
in
the
field
.
And
héere
I
do
desire
&
praie
the
almightie
&
immortall
Gods
,
to
saue
&
kéep
thée
from
his
furious
hands
,
for
surelie
my
heart
doth
tremble
to
heare
you
saie
that
you
will
goe
and
seeke
him
to
contend
with
him
.
Héere
is
now
in
presence
Rodaran
king
of
Arabia
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
who
hath
proued
the
experience
of
his
mightie
blowes
.
I
doe
desire
your
highnesse
to
aske
of
them
,
if
they
haue
anie
good
will
to
returne
and
proue
them
againe
,
as
also
if
Rodaran
be
in
the
same
opinion
that
he
was
before
he
went
into
Grecia
.
Therefore
O
high
and
mightie
Emperour
,
conserue
and
maintaine
this
soueraigne
estate
into
the
which
the
high
and
immortall
Gods
hath
exalted
you
,
and
leaue
off
this
enterprise
,
for
to
goe
and
séeke
perilles
and
daungers
in
other
straunge
Countries
,
for
that
innumerable
bée
the
misfortunes
that
wée
are
daylie
subiect
vnto
.
And
you
shall
not
doe
little
for
to
conserue
and
kéepe
that
which
you
doe
now
possesse
.
Wise
men
in
times
past
dyd
not
thinke
it
to
bée
done
with
ease
(
who
sayde
)
that
it
was
great
trauaile
to
suffer
prosperitie
,
and
that
it
was
necessarie
to
learne
to
suffer
,
hauing
Fortune
at
will
,
for
that
it
is
more
difficult
to
gouerne
himselfe
therewith
,
than
in
aduersitie
.
Héere
therefore
I
thinke
not
amisse
to
staie
my
talke
,
for
that
in
this
which
I
haue
sayde
you
maye
verie
well
vnderstand
my
iudgement
,
not
onelie
that
you
shoulde
restraine
from
executing
your
will
,
but
also
that
you
should
seperate
and
blot
it
cleane
out
of
your
thought
and
minde
,
&
neuer
more
remember
it
.
For
that
if
the
knight
of
the
Sun
had
done
vnto
you
any
iniurie
(
as
hetherto
he
hath
not
,
for
that
possible
he
would
not
accept
at
your
handes
the
thing
which
he
thought
himselfe
not
worthie
of
)
it
were
much
better
for
you
to
pardon
the
same
,
then
to
séeke
reuengement
.
For
an
iniurie
done
vnto
so
mightie
a
prince
as
you
are
,
it
is
a
small
satisfaction
the
death
of
one
knight
,
&
there
is
no
forgetfulnesse
so
generous
and
noble
,
as
is
of
him
that
hath
offended
.
This
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
had
not
as
yet
full
concluded
these
words
(
with
pretence
to
goe
forwards
with
his
talk
)
whan
that
,
that
furious
youth
,
Bramarant
arose
vp
vpon
his
féete
,
from
the
place
where
as
he
sate
next
vnto
Bradaman
his
father
,
with
so
yreful
a
semblant
,
which
put
great
wonder
in
all
them
that
dyd
behold
him
,
he
began
to
saie
these
wordes
following
.
With
great
paine
and
griefe
haue
I
suffered
the
conclusion
of
these
thy
words
,
thou
light
and
folish
king
of
Gedrosia
,
dost
thou
think
that
in
such
sort
should
be
entreated
the
vse
of
armes
amongst
knights
,
as
you
(
who
doe
call
your selues
Philosophers
)
doth
vse
them
in
your
scooles
&
vniuersities
.
Dost
thou
think
that
the
varietie
in
their
causes
must
of
force
follow
one
rule
,
as
you
doe
imagine
,
or
is
your
understanding
so
simple
to
conceue
that
,
the
iudgements
and
strength
of
men
should
be
equall
,
and
that
there
should
not
some
be
more
stronger
and
couragious
then
other
.
Thy
counsell
were
good
and
profitable
for
a
king
that
were
foolish
,
and
a
coward
,
as
thou
arte
,
but
not
for
so
mightie
a
prince
as
the
Emperour
is
.
What
feare
or
inconuenience
may
that
be
,
to
be
sufficient
to
withdraw
him
from
his
will
,
although
it
were
for
to
conquere
the
whole
world
,
how
much
more
for
to
destroy
the
Empire
of
Grecia
.
By
the
immortall
gods
I
doe
sweare
,
that
if
we
doe
goe
thether
,
I
alone
doe
thinke
for
to
destroy
all
the
Gréekes
,
although
they
c●me
foorth
altogether
in
the
féelde
to
battaile
against
me
,
neither
w●ll
I
for
all
their
force
and
strength
,
step
one
foote
backe
.
This
doth
procéede
of
couragious
hearts
,
and
any
thing
else
to
the
contrarie
,
is
of
cowardnesse
,
and
although
I
haue
spent
my
youth
in
exercise
of
armes
,
more
then
in
reading
of
Philosophie
:
yet
doe
I
know
that
he
that
is
fearefull
can
giue
no
good
counsell
for
the
warres
,
neither
he
that
is
timerous
doe
any
good
act
therein
.
And
I
am
fully
perswaded
that
Alexander
had
not
bene
Lord
ouer
all
the
world
,
if
ther
had
ben
any
sparke
of
cowardnesse
within
his
heart
,
neither
should
Agamemnon
haue
destroyed
Troy
,
nor
Hanibal
,
Sagunto
,
nor
Cartago
,
nor
Numancia
the
Affricano
,
if
they
had
followed
the
counsell
that
thou
hast
now
giuen
vnto
the
Emperour
.
Beleue
mee
,
that
as
commonly
fortune
doth
sh●w
her selfe
fauourable
vnto
those
that
be
generous
and
valiant
of
minde
,
euen
so
vnto
cowards
&
weake
people
,
feare
is
an
ill
prognostication
,
as
it
was
of
that
Flamineo
in
Trasimeno
,
and
of
Crasso
in
Cannas
,
and
of
Pompeo
in
Tessalia
.
To
conclude
,
for
that
the
Emperour
our
Lord
doth
in
these
actions
that
which
is
nedeful
and
requisit
,
he
must
not
follow
the
iudgements
of
fooles
&
cowardlie
Philosophers
,
but
take
the
counsell
of
them
that
be
stout
,
valiant
,
and
couragious
knights
,
vnto
them
should
be
committed
matters
of
Iustice
,
&
vnto
vs
the
state
of
the
wars
.
For
my
part
,
I
doe
say
,
that
if
the
Emperour
will
passe
into
Grecia
,
I
will
serue
him
with
my
owne
person
:
&
this
knight
of
the
Sunne
(
of
whome
the
king
of
Gedrosia
hath
so
much
feare
)
I
wil
be
bound
to
apprehend
him
,
&
to
bring
him
prisoner
before
his
presence
,
that
he
may
take
reuengement
of
him
at
his
pleasure
,
yea
,
if
he
were
a
se●ond
Iupiter
,
yet
should
he
not
be
so
mightie
as
to
cleare
him selfe
out
of
my
hands
.
So
when
that
Bramarant
had
concluded
these
words
,
he
sat
himselfe
downe
againe
in
his
place
.
There
was
present
at
that
time
one
Graco
,
sonne
vnto
the
king
of
Gedrosia
,
a
young
knight
,
very
valiant
and
gallant
,
and
very
〈…〉
vnto
many
kings
that
were
there
in
that
Court
:
who
seing
with
what
iniurious
wordes
his
father
the
king
was
intreated
,
arose
vp
from
his
seate
and
said
,
as
followeth
.
Bramarant
,
if
thou
werte
so
valiant
in
thy
déedes
,
as
thou
art
discourteous
in
thy
wordes
,
then
would
not
I
think
much
but
thou
wouldest
accomplish
all
this
which
thou
hast
said
against
the
Gréekes
:
but
I
hope
in
the
high
and
immortal
gods
,
that
if
we
goe
thether
,
thou
shalt
meete
with
one
alone
amongst
all
the
rest
,
that
will
make
thée
for
to
know
,
that
thy
pride
is
more
then
thy
déedes
,
&
wil
reuenge
the
iniurie
which
thy
words
hath
done
vnto
my
father
.
This
valiant
Graco
had
not
fully
concluded
these
words
,
when
that
the
fierce
Bramarant
kindled
in
wrath
,
with
a
diuelish
furie
,
arose
vp
from
his
seate
,
and
went
vnto
him
,
clasping
him
with
one
of
his
handes
by
the
arme
,
lifting
him
vp
in
the
ayre
(
without
hauing
any
power
this
young
knight
to
withstand
it
)
he
threw
him
out
of
the
window
of
that
great
hall
,
and
saide
,
herein
shalt
thou
sée
whether
my
deedes
be
confirmable
to
my
words
or
not
.
And
for
that
the
windowes
were
verie
high
from
the
ground
,
this
vnfortunate
Graco
fell
with
his
head
downewards
,
where
as
he
was
slaine
,
which
was
so
great
sorow
and
griefe
vnto
his
father
,
that
he
wished
the
misfortune
had
chaunced
vnto
him
and
not
vnto
his
sonne
.
This
king
was
mightie
&
puisant
,
and
had
many
kings
in
that
court
present
,
which
were
his
kinsemen
,
who
seeing
that
which
was
done
by
Bramarant
,
for
that
they
had
no
armour
,
(
neither
could
they
be
suffered
to
enter
to
that
court
of
parliament
with
anie
)
they
altogether
arose
vp
and
went
towards
him
,
thinking
to
haue
thrown
him
out
of
the
same
window
,
that
he
threw
out
Graco
,
but
their
determination
fell
out
contrarie
:
for
although
that
they
were
more
then
twentie
,
&
Bramarant
had
neither
armour
nor
sword
,
yet
with
both
his
hands
he
tooke
tw●
of
them
that
came
first
vnto
him
,
li●ting
them
vp
in
the
ayre
,
he
threw
them
against
a
wall
that
was
ouer
against
him
,
with
so
great
strength
,
that
their
ribbes
were
br●ken
,
and
they
fell
to
the
ground
halfe
dead
,
where
as
they
lay
a
good
wh●le
and
could
not
ar●●e
.
And
not
staying
with
this
,
but
with
a
d●●lish
furie
&
quicknesse
,
he
threw
other
two
out
at
the
window
.
Then
arose
vp
his
father
Bradaman
,
with
whose
helpe
,
not
one
that
was
in
that
great
hall
,
which
was
against
his
sonne
,
had
〈…〉
,
if
that
the
Emperour
in
great
●ast
had
not
〈…〉
himselfe
in

middest

〈…〉
with
prayings
,
desires

and
sweete

did
put
them
in

,
〈…〉
Bradaman
and
〈◊〉
,
whole

〈…〉
with

furie
and
wrath
〈…〉
was
quickly
concluded
amongst

,
〈…〉
they

such
,
that

〈…〉
his

So
when
that
the
Emperour

〈…〉

he
began
to
reply
a
newe
,
touching
〈…〉
he
had
saide

and
the
●urie
and
〈…〉
Bramarant
was
such
,
in
procuring
that
〈…〉
should
be
accepted
,
that
some
for
〈…〉
they
had
of
them
,
and
other
some
for
〈…〉
thereof
.
In
the
ende
,
they
did
conclude
,
that
the
〈◊〉
should
go
forwards

Then
after
certaine
daies
that
they
remai●●d
in

all

for

all

But
first
before

amongst

that
at

How
that
there
came
to
the

of
the

Trebatio

a
strange
knight
,
&
did
defie
the
knight

of
the
stout

well
foughten
battaile
that
was

Chap.
11.
WIth
great
content
&
ioye
,
did
this
Historie
leaue
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
Empresse
Buana
,
for
that
they
had
with
them
their
exelent
&
worthie
sonnes
,
accompanied
with
those
high
&
worthie
Princes
,
who
were
no
lesse
glad
and
ioyful
,
for
that
they
were
in
that
Court
,
as
well
for
the
great
friendship
which
they
had
with
the
Gréekes
,
as
for
the
affable
conuersation
that
they
had
with
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
,
who
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
the
most
exelentest
&
noblest
Lord
that
euer
they
had
sene
or
knowen
.
But
yet
aboue
all
the
rest
,
the
ioye
and
pleasure
that
those
●oyall
louers
Rosicleer
,
and
Oliuia
receiued
,
did
far
surmount
:
who
being
at
quiet
,
resting
themselues
,
of
those
great
troubles
&
mortall
anguishes
,
the
which
the
one
for
the
other
receiued
,
that
verelie
they
did
séeme
to
recreate
themselues
with
all
soueraine
glorie
,
and
vnspeakeable
ioye
.
The
princesse
Oliuia
,
receiued
so
great
contentment
for
that
she
had
with
her
Rosicleer
her
loue
,
and
also
to
sée
the
great
maiestie
&
highnesse
of
the
Emperour
,
with
the
great
loue
and
good
will
which
he
bare
vnto
her
,
that
in
a
short
time
she
had
cleane
forgotten
great
Britaine
,
and
the
court
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
her
father
,
and
was
neuer
satisfied
in
giuing
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
for
that
he
had
brought
her
vnto
so
high
estate
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
he
alone
that
liued
not
to
his
contentment
,
neither
receiued
any
ioye
nor
pleasure
,
in
seeing
himselfe
absent
from
his
Ladie
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
all
pastimes
&
pleasures
that
were
there
ordeined
,
were
vnto
him
great
anguish
and
griefe
,
thinking
himselfe
to
be
alwaies
in
darknesse
,
pensiue
,
and
imagining
when
the
daye
should
be
that
he
might
reioyce
and
comfort
himselfe
with
her
precious
sight
,
but
yet
calling
to
remembrance
his
disloialtie
past
,
it
seemed
vnto
him
that
hee
was
voide
of
all
desert
,
and
coulde
not
imagine
howe
●ee
might
excuse
himselfe
to
come
into
her
presence
.
So
all
〈…〉
Court
béeing
in
their
contrarietie
of
thoughtes
and
dispositions
,
vpon
a
daie
béeing
all
together
in
a
faire
hall
of
the
mightie
pallace
,
after
that
dinner
was
done
,
they
sawe
entering
in
at
the
gate
a
knight
all
armed
with
blacke
Steele
,
which
was
of
so
greate
finenesse
,
that
it
seemed
to
bée
christaline
glasse
,
he
was
of
a
gallant
stature
and
well
made
,
and
of
so
gentle
disposition
,
that
it
caused
great
admiration
in
all
them
that
beheld
him
,
his
helme
was
on
his
head
,
and
the
beauer
down
,
so
that
none
could
sée
his
face
,
he
brought
leading
by
the
hand
a
verie
faire
Ladie
,
with
a
rich
crowne
vpon
her
head
,
and
after
them
came
other
two
Dam●ells
,
the
one
of
them
bare
the
traine
of
the
Ladie
,
and
the
other
brought
the
shéeld
of
the
Knight
,
which
was
●●wise
of
blacke
steele
,
all
apparailed
in
blacke
,
séeming
to
bée
mourners
.
So
when
they
entered
into
the
hall
there
was
great
silence
,
then
the
Ladie
which
had
the
Crowne
vpon
her
head
,
without
doing
anie
reuerence
,
saide
.
Who
is
hée
amongest
you
that
is
called
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
?
Hée
béeing
there
present
,
arose
vp
and
said
:
Faire
Ladie
,
what
is
your
demaund
?
Heere
I
am
he
that
you
do
aske
for
.
In
good
time
,
sayd
the
Ladie
,
and
I
am
verie
gladde
that
I
haue
found
you
héere
,
although
our
comming
can
turne
no
goodnesse
vnto
thée
.
Thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
I
am
Media
,
daughter
vnto
that
Raiartes
,
whom
thou
traiterouslie
and
falselie
didst
kill
in
Babilonia
,
whose
strength
as
thou
doest
well
know
,
was
no
lesse
than
diuine
,
nor
could
not
be
slaine
by
humane
hands
,
ex●●pt
it
were
by
great
trason
and
falsehood
.
I
remained
a
damsell
and
of
tender
yéeres
at
the
time
of
his
death
,
and
by
reason
that
my
beautie
was
such
as
thou
doest
sée
,
there
dyd
not
lacke
many
Princes
and
Knightes
that
dyd
request
mee
in
marryage
,
from
whence
I
did
defend
and
excuse
my selfe
,
〈◊〉
that
straight
waies
vppon
the
death
of
my
Father
,
I
made
a
solempne
oath
and
vowe
,
neuer
to
marrie
with
anie
knight
but
with
him
that
first
of
all
shal
make
me
reuengement
●or
the
death
of
my
father
.
And
for
that
the
fame
of
thy
greate
bountie
is
so
blowne
throughout
the
world
,
I
haue
found
none
that
is
desirous
to
marrie
with
me
with
so
great
a
charge
,
but
this
alone
knight
,
who
by
fortune
ariued
at
the
Iland
of
Zardo
,
whereas
I
am
gouernesse
,
who
falling
in
loue
with
my
great
beautie
,
did
binde
himselfe
to
come
and
make
battaile
with
thée
,
and
giue
mée
reuengement
for
the
death
of
my
Father
,
the
which
I
do
so
much
desire
,
and
I
seeing
with
my
owne
eies
the
great
bountie
and
valour
of
this
knight
,
in
a
certaine
contention
which
hée
had
with
certaine
knights
of
mine
,
receiued
great
contentment
for
to
come
with
him
,
and
according
vnto
the
great
wonders
that
I
haue
séene
him
doe
,
I
suppose
that
there
is
not
a
knight
in
all
the
world
that
is
equall
vnto
him
,
so
that
the
reuengement
of
the
death
of
my
Father
,
I
haue
it
so
certaine
as
though
it
were
alreadie
done
.
This
is
our
demaund
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
the
occasion
of
our
comming
hether
,
and
to
knowe
why
this
my
Knight
doth
not
speake
vnto
you
,
is
for
that
hée
is
a
straunger
verie
farre
from
this
Countrie
,
and
cannot
speake
nor
vnderstand
anie
Gréeke
.
And
in
conclud●ng
these
wordes
,
the
Ladie
helde
her
peace
,
and
the
straunge
knight
who
was
verie
attentiue
vnto
that
which
was
sayde
,
beholding
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
dyd
decline
his
head
downewardes
,
in
signe
that
hee
dyd
graunt
vnto
all
that
which
the
Ladie
had
saide
.
So
this
demaund
béeing
vnderstoode
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
without
anie
chaunge
of
countenaunce
,
but
with
a
seuere
semblaunce
aunswered
and
sayde
.
Ladie
Medea
,
I
woulde
that
your
demaund
were
some
other
than
this
which
you
doe
bring
,
not
for
that
I
woulde
excuse
the
battaile
that
this
knight
will
make
with
me
,
for
as
I
am
cléere
and
without
fault
of
the
death
of
Raiartes
your
father
(
as
is
wel
knowen
)
so
do
I
litle
estéeme
the
great
bount●e
of
this
knight
,
hauing
right
and
iustice
on
my
part
,
but
yet
I
wish
,
if
it
were
your
pleasure
,
that
you
would
command
me
some
other
thing
wherein
I
might
do
you
seruice
,
that
shoulde
more
import
the
satisfaction
of
the
a●ger
which
you
haue
conceiued
against
me
,
the
which
I
woulde
accomplish
with
a
better
will
,
than
to
enter
into
battaile
with
your
knight
,
for
if
it
should
so
fall
out
that
I
should
g●t
the
victorie
ouer
him
,
yet
must
I
needes
serue
you
,
but
seeing
it
is
so
,
that
you
doe
demand
of
mee
the
death
of
you●
father
,
I
cannot
but
must
néeds
make
my
defence
,
for
that
I
slew
him
not
by
treason
or
falsehoode
,
but
as
I
accustome
to
doe
,
in
equall
battaile
and
orderlie
lawe
of
knighthood
,
therfore
from
this
time
I
doe
accept
the
battaile
,
and
anie
other
thing
that
shall
be
demanded
.
This
béeing
sayd
,
the
Ladie
aunswered
for
her
knight
,
accepting
the
same
,
then
they
tooke
their
handes
together
in
signe
of
gages
to
the
battaile
,
which
béeing
done
,
the
strange
knight
departed
from
thence
with
the
Ladie
by
the
hand
,
giuing
them
to
vnderstand
that
hée
would
abide
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
the
place
appointed
for
their
combat
,
who
straight
waies
tooke
his
leaue
of
the
Emperour
his
Father
,
and
went
vnto
his
chamber
to
arme
himselfe
.
In
the
meane
time
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
arming
himselfe
,
the
Prince
Cl●ue●ndo
did
declare
vnto
all
them
that
were
in
the
great
hall
,
how
Raiartes
was
father
vnto
Medea
,
and
in
what
sort
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
slew
him
,
as
●ne
that
knew
the
effect
thereof
verie
well
,
for
that
hee
was
present
and
dyd
sée
the
whole
battaile
.
So
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
armed
with
his
rich
and
strong
armour
,
that
was
sometimes
the
Prince
Meridians
(
as
this
Hystorie
hath
tolde
you
,
which
dyd
not
a
little
stand
him
in
〈◊〉
that
daie
,
béeing
accompanied
with
his
Brother
〈◊〉
,
and
all
the
troupe
of
those
valiant
knightes
,
hee
descended
from
the
Pallace
,
and
went
whereas
the
straunge
knight
was
,
tarrying
his
comming
,
〈◊〉
vppon
a
〈…〉
,
with
so
gallant
proportion
and
semblance
,
that
he
seemed
to
be
one
of
the
best
knights
that
euer
he
had
〈◊〉
,
and
mounting
vpon
his
mightie
horse
Cornerino
,
who
was
all
trapped
with
cloth
of
golde
full
of
precious
stones
,
with
a
plume
of
white
feathers
bespangled
with
golde
vppon
his
helme
,
which
was
a
gallant
sight
to
beholde
,
for
as
in
this
historie
it
hath
bene
tolde
you
in
many
places
,
that
ouer
and
aboue
that
this
knight
was
of
a
high
stature
,
he
was
therwith
so
well
proportioned
of
his
bodie
,
that
when
hée
mounted
vpon
his
horse
béeing
armed
,
there
was
not
a
thing
of
more
wonder
to
be
séene
,
and
all
they
that
did
beholde
him
were
greatlie
amazed
,
whose
presence
alonelie
did
declare
that
hée
should
be
a
knight
of
great
force
and
strength
.
So
after
that
he
had
moued
his
courser
once
about
the
place
,
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
,
with
al
the
rest
of
the
Court
,
being
at
the
windowes
and
battlements
of
the
mightie
pallace
,
and
al
the
whole
place
ful
of
people
.
Then
the
strange
knight
began
to
moue
his
mightie
courser
with
so
gallant
disposition
and
furie
,
that
all
men
did
iudge
him
to
be
a
knight
of
great
force
and
strength
,
and
sayd
that
in
his
semblance
he
did
resemble
much
to
Rosicleer
,
who
shewed
no
lesse
gallant
proportion
and
grace
than
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
.
And
the
Emperour
Trebatio
who
was
beholding
him
,
and
pleased
at
his
gentle
disposition
,
sayde
vnto
them
that
were
with
him
:
The
gallant
order
and
gentle
demeanour
of
this
Knight
,
doeth
make
mée
beléene
,
that
this
battaile
will
be
better
fought
,
and
more
doubtfull
than
wée
thought
for
,
and
wée
shall
see
great
meruailes
therein
.
So
it
séemeth
vnto
mée
,
sayd
the
good
Troyan
Oristedes
,
and
I
doe
not
looke
for
an
ende
of
this
battayle
till
it
bee
almost
night
,
at
such
time
as
the
daie
draweth
to
an
end
,
till
that
time
the
furie
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
doth
not
beginne
to
kindle
.
The
bountie
of
this
worthie
Prince
is
so
straunge
,
that
the
more
the
battayle
doth
indure
,
and
the
stronger
hée
is
assaulted
,
it
seemeth
that
his
force
and
strength
doeth
the
more
increase
.
When
that
●ristedes
had
ended
these
wordes
,
all
the
whole
place
was
in
quiet
and
attentiue
,
waiting
for
the
rigorous
battayle
that
shoulde
bée
made
betwixt
those
two
Knightes
,
who
firming
themselues
i●
their
Saddles
with
their
speares
in
their
hande●
,
they
stayed
the
sound
of
Trumpets
,
which
was
ordained
for
their
beginning
,
at
the
sound
wherof
they
set
spurres
vnto
their
coursers
,
and
ranne
the
one
agaynst
the
other
with
great
impetuous
force
,
the
swiftnesse
of
their
horses
was
such
,
that
quicklie
they
met
together
,
and
made
so
strong
incounters
,
that
by
reason
their
armour
was
so
excellent
,
that
the
sharpe
point
of
their
Speares
coulde
not
enter
,
their
staues
were
shieuered
all
to
péeces
,
and
they
passed
the
one
by
the
other
so
vpright
and
well
setteled
,
as
though
they
had
not
receiued
anie
encounter
at
all
,
but
turned
their
horses
about
in
the
aire
,
and
came
the
one
against
the
other
with
their
swordes
in
their
handes
,
and
began
to
laie
on
such
vnreasonable
blowes
,
that
their
sheeldes
(
although
they
were
of
fine
stéele
)
were
quicklie
broken
all
to
peeces
,
and
their
guilt
mailes
were
scattered
vppon
the
ground
,
and
with
the
furie
of
their
blowes
,
there
procéeded
so
many
sparkes
of
fire
,
that
it
séemed
that
they
burned
,
and
the
sound
of
their
armour
rang
lyke
an
eccho
,
throughout
the
whole
Citie
.
Béeing
more
than
one
whole
houre
ouerpassed
,
that
these
two
valiant
Knightes
beganne
their
combat
,
yet
in
such
sort
dyd
they
so
double
●heir
strong
blowes
,
as
though
they
dyd
but
as
then
begin
,
and
no
vantage
was
knowen
of
either
parte
,
but
either
of
them
beganne
to
féele
the
great
strength
of
his
aduersarie
.
And
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
was
meruailous
full
of
wrath
,
for
that
one
alone
knight
did
endure
so
long
against
him
in
that
combat
,
in
the
presence
of
his
Father
and
mother
and
those
highe
Princes
and
knightes
,
sayde
within
himselfe
,
that
hée
neuer
combatted
with
knight
before
,
that
dyd
so
stronglie
strike
his
blowes
,
and
with
so
valiant
a
courage
dyd
defend
himselfe
,
but
onelie
Rosicleer
his
brother
,
who
was
hée
that
brought
him
into
the
greatest
perill
and
necessitie
aboue
all
other
.
Likewise
the
straunge
knight
dyd
not
so
little
féele
the
great
force
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
but
that
he
thought
it
impossible
to
cleere
himselfe
well
of
that
battaile
,
but
hée
as
one
that
little
estéemed
his
life
,
for
to
reuenge
some
parte
of
the
great
anger
which
he
had
against
his
aduersary
,
did
so
inforce
and
animate
himselfe
,
that
the
battaile
endured
thrée
houres
betwixt
them
,
without
anie
knowledge
of
vauntage
of
the
one
part
or
of
the
other
.
The
blowes
which
they
stroke
were
of
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
many
times
it
dyd
astonish
and
amaze
them
,
and
brought
them
so
farre
out
of
remembraunce
,
that
their
horses
carried
them
round
about
the
place
,
and
all
those
that
dyd
beholde
that
stoute
and
rigorous
battaile
,
were
greatlie
amazed
,
and
iudged
it
to
bee
equall
vnto
that
combat
which
before
hee
had
with
Rosicleer
his
Brother
.
Likewise
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
all
those
high
Princes
and
knightes
that
were
with
him
,
dyd
not
a
little
meruaile
at
the
great
bountie
of
that
straunge
knight
,
saying
that
hée
shewed
himselfe
to
bée
one
of
the
valiauntest
knightes
that
was
to
bée
found
in
all
the
worlde
,
for
that
hée
had
so
long
sustained
battayle
against
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
and
Rosicleer
who
was
at
a
windowe
next
vnto
the
Emperour
his
Father
,
with
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
with
greate
admiration
dyd
beholde
the
battaile
,
(
and
as
one
that
had
well
experimented
the
strength
and
force
of
his
brother
,
)
dyd
greatlie
prayse
the
straunge
knight
,
for
that
he
dyd
so
we●l
defende
himselfe
agaynst
him
,
yet
hée
sayde
,
God
deliuer
mée
from
the
furie
of
my
Brother
.
It
is
now
foure
houres
since
the
battayle
beganne
,
and
now
is
the
time
that
his
wrath
will
b●gin
to
kindle
,
then
is
there
no
resistance
to
be
made
against
his
last
blowes
.
So
when
Rosicleer
had
sayde
these
wordes
,
it
was
not
long
after
that
it
fell
out
true
as
hée
had
sayde
,
for
beeing
more
than
foure
houres
since
the
beginning
of
the
battaile
,
at
such
time
as
the
Sunne
woulde
sette
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
seeing
that
the
daie
woulde
passe
awaie
,
in
such
sort
hée
beganne
to
rage
and
burne
with
ire
,
that
séemed
vnto
his
aduersarie
,
that
his
force
dyd
ren●e
and
augment
,
and
that
hée
beganne
the
battayle
a
freshe
,
for
that
his
blowes
were
such
and
so
thicke
,
that
manye
times
it
made
him
to
loose
his
remembraunce
,
so
that
at
that
time
the
battaile
was
more
terrible
and
cruell
than
it
was
all
the
daie
before
,
yet
neuerthelesse
the
straunge
knight
was
such
,
that
hée
abated
not
one
pointe
of
his
mightie
and
soueraigne
force
,
but
with
renued
strength
hée
so
charged
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
many
times
hée
was
without
all
hope
of
the
victorie
.
In
this
sorte
the
battayle
remained
in
ballaunce
almost
all
the
daie
without
knowing
anie
vauntage
betw●●t
them
,
til●
such
time
as
the
Sunne
had
left
his
orisent
,
and
the
night
beganne
to
appeare
,
then
the
straunge
knight
began
to
ware
wearie
,
and
little
and
little
his
strength
did
abate
,
in
such
sort
,
that
it
was
well
seene
that
he
had
not
the
courage
that
hee
had
at
the
first
,
for
that
hée
lift
vppe
his
armes
with
great
paine
,
and
his
swoorde
turned
in
his
hande
:
the
which
was
cleane
contrarie
to
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
at
that
present
was
more
stout
and
couragious
than
at
the
beginning
,
and
in
such
sorte
dyd
laye
vppon
his
aduersarie
,
that
as
one
amazed
,
he
chased
him
rounde
about
the
place
,
(
but
hée
séeing
that
the
vauntage
of
that
combat
was
on
his
parte
,
and
how
the
straunge
knight
was
the
best
knight
that
euer
hée
met
withall
,
next
vnto
his
Brother
Rosicleer
)
hée
withdrewe
himselfe
and
lefte
off
his
striking
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
the
straunge
knight
might
take
ayre
and
breath
himselfe
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
after
he
returned
vnto
the
battayle
,
he
shewed
himselfe
so
valyaunt
and
strong
,
that
it
séemed
the
daye
woulde
cleane
passe
awaie
before
the
battayle
woulde
bée
ended
,
if
they
had
let
them
alone
:
but
Medea
who
was
meruailouslie
in
loue
with
the
straunge
knight
,
as
shée
was
beholding
this
braue
battayle
all
daie
,
thought
it
impossible
for
her
knight
to
haue
there
anie
victorie
,
and
béeing
verie
desirous
to
part
them
,
shée
went
vnto
the
Emperour
,
and
requested
him
,
for
that
the
night
●yd
approch
,
for
to
commaunde
that
the
knightes
shoulde
cease
their
battayle
,
for
that
they
hadde
the
next
day
following
at
their
commandement
,
for
to
conclude
the
same
.
Then
the
Emperour
who
esteemed
much
of
the
straunge
knight
,
with
great
desire
that
the
battaile
might
not
come
to
conclusion
,
for
feare
of
euil
,
withdrew
himself
from
the
window
,
and
descended
into
the
great
Court
,
whereas
he
mounted
vpon
a
mightie
horse
,
&
being
accompanied
with
all
those
high
Princes
and
knights
,
he
went
vnto
the
place
whereas
those
knightes
made
their
combat
,
and
putting
himselfe
betwéene
them
,
he
sayd
.
Worthie
and
valiant
knightes
,
I
doe
most
heartelie
desire
you
,
that
for
this
time
you
would
cease
and
leaue
off
your
battaile
,
for
that
it
is
now
night
,
and
neither
of
you
hath
hetherto
lost
anie
point
or
iot
of
your
honours
.
Then
came
thether
also
the
faire
Medea
mounted
vpon
her
palfray
,
and
put
her selfe
in
the
middest
of
them
,
and
sayde
:
Héere
openlie
I
doe
professe
and
saie
,
that
I
hold
my selfe
verie
well
contented
with
the
prowesse
of
my
knight
,
and
I
doe
set
him
frée
&
at
libertie
of
the
promise
that
he
made
vnto
me
,
in
reuengeing
of
the
death
of
Raiartes
my
Father
,
&
without
anie
other
condition
,
I
will
straight
waies
receiue
him
for
my
husband
.
So
when
the
Emperour
and
Medea
had
sayde
these
worde●
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
straight
waies
withdrawe
himselfe
(
for
that
he
did
verie
much
estéeme
of
the
strange
knight
)
,
saying
,
that
it
was
great
pleasure
vnto
him
to
obey
their
commandement
,
and
not
to
contend
for
the
end
of
that
battaile
.
Then
the
strange
knight
when
he
sawe
the
Emperour
in
the
midst
betwixt
them
,
&
also
heard
the
words
which
Medea
had
spoken
,
séeing
that
it
could
be
no
otherwise
,
also
withdrew
himselfe
,
although
it
was
with
great
sorrow
,
anger
,
&
griefe
,
for
that
he
had
rather
haue
ben
slaine
in
that
battaile
,
than
to
escape
with
life
.
So
when
that
their
battell
was
separated
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
went
vnto
the
strange
knight
,
with
determination
to
be
his
friend
,
and
to
knowe
him
,
and
being
verie
nigh
vnto
him
readie
for
to
speake
,
the
strange
knight
without
the
hearing
of
anie
other
sayd
:
O
Traitor
and
false
Pagan
,
how
doth
God
permit
that
the
earth
doth
sustaine
thée
?
S●e
that
thou
doest
returne
hether
againe
to
morrowe
in
the
morning
,
for
that
héere
in
this
place
I
will
abide
thy
comming
,
and
will
neuer
depart
from
hence
till
I
haue
bereft
thée
of
thy
life
,
for
that
it
is
against
the
diuine
prouidence
thou
shouldest
liue
anie
longer
to
deceiue
others
.
The
strange
knight
had
not
well
concluded
these
wordes
,
whan
that
in
his
spech
and
vtterance
of
words
,
as
also
in
his
proporcion
&
gentill
deme●●or
,
the
knight
of
the
Sun
did
know
of
a
very
certaintie
,
that
it
shoul●
be
the
royall
Princes
Claridiana
,
for
whome
he
had
passed
so
great
sorow
and
griefe
,
then
knowing
her
,
and
considering
of
the
cruell
and
r●gorous
battaile
that
he
made
with
her
,
and
being
by
her
knowen
and
defyed
,
he
receiued
so
great
sorow
and
griefe
at
his
heart
,
that
he
fell
in
a
s●●nd
,
and
cleane
from
all
remembrance
,
wherewith
he
fell
from
his
Horse
to
the
earth
.
Then
the
Emperour
and
all
the
princes
&
knights
that
were
with
him
,
not
knowing
the
occasion
of
that
sodaine
alteration
,
but
being
greatly
amazed
to
see
that
sodain
●al
,
alighted
from
their
horses
,
&
toke
him
vp
in
their
armes
and
pulled
of
his
healme
that
he
might
receiue
aire
,
but
it
did
little
profit
,
for
that
he
was
so
farre
gon
that
he
semed
to
be
dead
,
and
although
they
threw
water
in
his
face
,
yet
could
they
not
bring
him
againe
vnto
himself
,
for
the
which
the
emperour
and
all
the
rest
were
verie
sore
troubled
,
and
was
the
occasion
that
there
arose
in
that
place
a
great
tumult
,
saying
that
it
could
be
no
other
thing
but
that
he
was
dead
.
And
the
Empresse
his
mother
which
was
a●
the
window
beholding
all
that
passed
,
as
astonished
and
full
of
anguish
and
sorow
,
withdrew
her selfe
into
the
pallace
,
and
fell
downe
in
the
armes
and
lappe
of
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
who
was
by
her
,
wher
as
she
remained
a
good
while
as
one
from
her selfe
,
till
such
time
as
the
Emperour
came
&
comforted
her
:
but
yet
in
all
this
time
the
knight
of
the
Sun
was
not
come
vnto
him selfe
.
Then
the
Emperour
communded
that
he
should
be
carried
into
the
pallace
,
so
Rosicleer
his
brother
and
those
worthie
princes
,
did
carrie
him
in
their
armes
into
his
chamber
,
vnarming
him
&
pulling
of
his
apparell
,
they
laide
him
in
his
bed
,
whether
came
straight
waies
the
best
doctors
in
Phisicke
and
Surger●e
that
were
in
all
Constantinople
,
and
perusing
him
in
all
parts
of
his
bodie
,
they
●ound
that
in
no
part
he
had
receued
any
such
blow
that
might
be
the
occasion
of
such
dismay
,
the
which
they
made
manifest
vnto
all
that
were
ther
present
,
saying
,
that
it
should
procéede
of
some
other
thing
in
secret
,
and
not
of
the
battaile
passed
,
for
that
he
had
be
receiued
no
such-blow
that
should
cause
him
so
much
griefe
,
requesting
to
comfort
themselues
,
for
that
that
traunce
would
soone
passe
away
,
if
that
they
would
let
him
alone
and
suffer
him
to
take
his
rest
.
So
when
the
doctors
had
said
these
words
,
the
Emperour
and
all
the
rest
were
very
glad
,
and
hauing
intelligence
how
that
the
Empresse
was
verie
ill
with
that
sodaine
chaunce
of
her
sonne
,
they
left
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
his
bed
,
and
went
vnto
her
&
comforted
her
saying
,
that
the
malad●e
of
her
sonne
was
nothing
,
&
that
spedely
he
should
be
well
againe
.
By
reason
of
all
this
trouble
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
the
Emperour
hadde
no
time
for
to
speake
vnto
the
strange
knight
for
to
know
him
,
although
he
had
a
great
desire
thereto
:
but
remembring
him
,
he
commaunded
certaine
knights
for
to
go
&
seeke
him
,
but
he
could
not
be
found
in
the
pallace
,
neither
in
all
the
citie
,
for
that
straight
waies
at
such
time
as
they
had
caried
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
out
of
the
place
into
the
pal●ace
,
the
royall
Empresse
Claridiana
,
(
who
was
of
certain●
that
strange
knight
)
went
foorth
of
the
citie
,
in
the
companie
of
Medea
,
and
her
damsels
,
and
although
it
was
mght
&
●erie
dark
,
yet
did
they
not
let
to
trauaile
thrée
miles
from
Constantinople
,
&
in
a
faire
gréene
forrest
they
passe●
away
the
rest
of
the
night
that
remained
,
whereas
she
was
required
of
loue
,
by
Medea
,
for
that
she
loued
her
meruailously
wel
,
thinking
that
she
had
bene
a
knight
.
For
as
the
〈◊〉
faith
,
that
as
the
Empresse
Claridiana
remained
in
●rapisonda
,
verie
dolorous
and
heauie
,
for
the
newes
that
her
damsell
Areania
had
brought
her
,
she
did
somewhat
quiet
her selfe
〈◊〉
such
time
as
she
might
heare
of
the
comming
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
into
Grecia
,
for
that
then
(
by
reason
of
th●
great
anger
she
had
receiued
against
him
)
she
would
with
her
owne
hands
take
reuengement
,
of
the
faith
which
she
thought
he
had
●alsified
,
and
the
loue
was
not
so
great
which
before
she
bare
vnto
him
,
but
now
the
euill
will
and
hate
did
farre
surmount
the
same
.
And
when
she
vnderstood
that
he
was
come
into
Grecia
,
she
armed
her selfe
with
blacke
armour
,
and
alone
with
the
companie
of
those
two
〈◊〉
she
departed
out
of
the
mightie
Citie
of
Trapisonda
,
and
béeing
at
Sea
,
her
fortune
carri●d
her
vnto
the
kingdome
of
the
Sardos
,
whereas
was
this
Medea
,
daughter
vnto
Raiartes
,
who
had
a
mightie
strong
Castle
whereon
the
sea
dyd
beate
,
hard
vnto
the
port
whereas
her
most
abiding
was
,
and
had
continuall●●
in
her
companie
one
hundreth
knights
,
who
al
her
commandement
did
arest
all
that
came
vnto
that
port
,
and
carried
them
pris●uers
befo●e
her
,
whom
she
made
to
sweare
to
aide
●
helpe
her
for
to
make
reuengement
vpon
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
for
the
death
of
her
father
,
with
all
their
force
and
powers
possible
,
and
if
they
did
denie
,
r●●using
to
〈◊〉
that
oath
,
she
caused
them
to
bée
put
pr●soners
into
a
déepe
dungeon
,
till
such
time
as
they
should
by
force
doe
that
which
she
commanded
.
So
likewise
she
made
a
vowe
,
neuer
to
marrie
till
such
time
as
she
were
reuenged
on
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
So
as
soone
as
the
Empresse
was
entered
unto
the
port
,
straight
wayes
her
ship
was
●oorded
on
either
side
with
two
mightie
great
〈◊〉
full
of
knightes
,
and
willed
her
to
yeeld
her selfe
priso●er
,
with
whe●●e
shée
had
a
rigorous
battaile
in
the
defence
thereof
,
wherein
she
slew
many
of
those
knights
,
the
contention
went
forwards
,
and
she
meruailously
defended
her selfe
,
at
which
time
Medea
was
at
a
window
of
the
Castle
,
&
dyd
behold
all
that
did
passe
,
the
strange
knight
did
content
her
verie
much
,
and
she
greatly
meruailed
at
his
mightie
bountie
and
worthinesse
,
and
fearing
the
great
slaughter
that
might
happen
,
she
called
vnto
her
knights
with
a
loude
voice
,
commanding
them
to
withdrawe
themselues
,
and
to
leaue
their
battaile
with
the
knight
▪
Who
when
they
heard
her
,
they
straight
〈◊〉
r●t●red
and
left
him
.
Then
Medea
spake
vnto
the
〈…〉
her
to
goe
a
land
,
and
〈◊〉
come
before
her
,
for
that
shee
h●ped
to
conclude
with
her
with
reque●●●
,
that
wh●ch
her
knightes
could
not
by
●orce
,
so
as
it
〈◊〉
vnto
her
in
〈◊〉
her
r●quest
,
coulde
not
pro●●de
nothing
but
good
,
shee
went
a
lande
,
and
entered
into
the
castell
where
as
Medea
was
,
who
receiued
her
verie
courteously
,
and
shewed
her
the
occasion
wherefore
her
knights
laboured
so
much
for
to
take
her
prisoner
.
Then
she
who
at
that
present
desired
no
other
thing
but
to
be
reuenged
on
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
straight
waies
sayde
,
that
if
she
hadde
knowen
thereof
before
,
she
would
neuer
haue
maintained
that
contencion
against
her
knightes
,
for
that
she
likewise
came
foorth
of
her
countrie
to
séeke
the
knight
of
the
Sunn●
,
with
the
like
demaund
for
a
certaine
anger
and
griefe
conceiued
against
him
.
But
when
that
Medea
heard
that
,
with
so
great
ioye
and
pleasure
as
euer
she
receiued
in
all
her
life
,
she
embraced
the
Empresse
and
requested
him
to
pull
of
his
helme
,
who
at
the
great
request
and
importaunce
of
her
,
did
pull
it
of
.
And
for
that
she
had
her
rubicond
haire
knit
vp
in
a
call
of
golde
,
Medea
did
beleue
verely
that
she
was
a
knight
,
&
was
with
the
sodaine
sight
of
her
so
stroke
with
loue
&
prisoner
thereto
,
that
she
could
not
refraine
but
must
néedes
discouer
the
same
vnto
her
,
&
promised
to
marrie
with
him
,
if
he
made
reuengement
on
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
the
which
séemed
vnto
the
Empresse
to
be
a
good
occasion
and
coulour
for
her
to
enter
into
Grecia
,
and
to
defie
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
she
would
not
discouer
her selfe
vnto
Medea
,
but
did
dissemble
with
her
,
saying
,
that
●he
did
her
great
pleasure
therein
,
and
would
straight
waies
depart
for
Grecia
.
But
Medea
,
who
was
meruailously
in
loue
with
her
,
and
loth
to
leaue
her
,
sayd
,
that
she
would
beare
her
companie
,
for
that
she
would
be
present
to
sée
her
make
the
battaile
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
The
Empresse
was
verie
glad
thereof
,
and
betwixt
them
was
appointed
the
time
of
their
departure
.
So
after
that
she
had
remained
ther
two
daies
,
they
went
to
sea
and
ariued
in
Grecia
,
and
came
vnto
the
citie
of
Constantinople
,
in
the
order
as
you
heard
before
.
In
the
meane
time
that
they
were
in
the
forrest
,
after
the
battaile
made
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
Medea
was
still
deceiued
,
beleeuing
that
the
Empresse
had
bene
a
knight
,
and
for
that
they
should
remaine
there
all
that
night
,
after
they
had
supped
,
with
certaine
vittailes
brought
thether
by
her
damsels
.
Medea
did
neuer
●eace
requiring
the
Empresse
of
loue
,
offering
her selfe
to
be
her
wife
,
and
said
,
that
she
would
take
her
to
be
her
husband
,
without
any
other
consideration
,
and
that
it
was
not
her
will
that
she
should
returne
any
mor●
to
combat
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
at
the
which
words
the
Empresse
would
haue
laughed
very
much
,
if
the
great
griefe
which
she
had
receued
in
her
heart
,
would
haue
consented
to
the
same
,
but
by
reason
that
one
waye
her
minde
was
occupied
,
in
considering
what
she
was
of
her selfe
,
and
to
be
forgotten
for
an
other
damsell
.
And
againe
calling
to
remembrance
in
what
estate
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
remained
at
their
departure
out
of
Constantinople
,
she
was
so
full
of
anguish
,
sorow
and
griefe
,
that
she
little
minded
the
amorous
words
that
Medea
spake
vnto
her
,
neither
could
the
wrath
and
anger
that
she
conceiued
against
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
doe
so
much
,
but
that
the
loue
which
was
printed
within
her
heart
could
doe
much
more
,
and
caused
her
to
repent
her selfe
for
that
which
she
had
done
,
and
to
receiue
great
griefe
for
the
estate
in
the
which
she
had
left
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Likewise
in
that
she
had
proued
his
mightie
force
and
courage
,
her
loue
did
so
double
and
increase
,
that
she
thought
verely
that
there
was
not
in
the
whole
world
but
he
alone
that
dyd
deserue
her
to
be
his
wife
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
her
griefe
was
the
more
,
by
reason
that
she
was
without
all
hope
.
And
it
is
to
be
bel●●ued
,
as
the
wise
Li●gandeo
saith
,
that
there
was
neuer
sorow
of
a
damsel
for
loue
,
equall
vnto
this
of
the
royall
Empresse
Claridiana
,
for
that
she
séeing
her selfe
to
be
without
compari●on
,
as
well
in
beautie
&
fair●nesse
,
as
in
all
other
graces
which
should
be
in
a
gentlewoman
,
likewise
in
bloud
and
highnes
,
none
did
passe
her
:
and
séeing
that
a
knight
,
whome
she
did
loue
with
all
her
heart
,
and
with
whome
she
alonely
might
marrie
,
confirmable
vnto
her
highnesse
,
and
he
receiuing
her
for
his
owne
,
and
now
to
haue
forgotten
her
and
changed
her
for
an
other
of
meaner
estate
.
And
againe
seeing
that
there
remained
not
in
all
the
world
a
Prince
nor
knight
that
is
worthi●
of
her
lou●
,
so
that
the
had
i●st
cause
to
receue
grief
and
sorow
,
more
then
any
other
,
and
as
her
cause
is
great
,
so
much
more
should
her
griefe
be
,
in
especiall
hauing
(
as
she
had
)
so
excelent
and
cleare
understanding
,
for
to
conceiue
the
same
.
So
with
this
mortall
anguish
doth
the
Historie
〈◊〉
her
&
Medea
,
for
to
tell
you
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
which
was
in
his
bedde
.
How
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
as
one
desperate
for
the
battaile
that
he
had
with
the
Empresse
Claridiana
he
departed
the
court
of
the
Emperour
Treba●o
.

GReat
part
of
the
night
was
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
so
farre
out
of
all
remembraunce
,
that
it
séemed
to
be
mortall
,
till
such
time
as
was
passed
the
dolour
of
his
senses
,
the
which
y●
sodaine
griefe
did
cause
vnto
him
,
and
transported
vnto
a
verie
●ound
&
swete
sléepe
,
in
such
sorte
,
●hat
all
men
did
sée
that
he
slept
verie
q●●ietlie
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
the
Emperour
and
those
high
Princes
and
knights
went
to
take
their
restes
,
and
le●●
him
all
alone
with
his
two
squires
,
Biniano
,
and
Aurelio
,
In
this
order
he
●l●pt
a
while
,
and
being
past
midnight
,
he
dremed
that
he
was
in
battaile
as
the
day
before
,
with
the
which
he
awaked
and
started
vs
,
as
one
that
was
scared
,
but
when
he
saw
him selfe
in
his
bed
,
and
by
him
certaine
torches
burning
,
he
straight
way
called
to
remembrance
the
battaile
that
he
had
had
with
the
strange
knight
,
and
how
that
it
was
his
i●●stresse
the
Empresse
Clarid●ana
:
The
remembraunce
whereof
did
cause
so
great
sorow
and
griefe
,
that
as
a
furious
man
and
one
from
himselfe
he
threw
all
the
clothes
from
him
and
arose
vp
from
his
bed
,
and
●inding
his
apparell
he
put
them
on
,
and
began
to
arme
himselfe
without
the
h●lp
of
anie
,
till
such
time
as
his
squires
(
w●●●ere
a
sléepe
)
with
the
noyse
thereof
did
awake
,
and
séeing
what
their
Lord
did
,
with
great
meruaile
they
asked
him
why
he
did
arme
himselfe
,
but
the
knight
of
the
Sun
made
them
no
aunswere
,
but
made
hast
to
be
armed
.
The●
they
séeing
that
he
made
no
accompt
of
their

and
did
helpe
him
,
till
that
he
was
wholly
〈…〉

his

with

〈…〉

durst
not
aske
him
any

question
,
but
〈…〉
,
and
went
and
made
his
horse
in
a
redinesse
,
and
〈…〉
were
sadled
and
brydled
and
brought
to
the
pallace
gate
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
descended
out
of
his
〈…〉
when
he
saw
the
horse
of

squires
〈…〉
asked
Biniano
wherefore
he
had
〈…〉
owne
,
who
aunswered
him
and
〈…〉
with
him
.
I
will
none

there
shall
none

neither

no

When
his
squires
heard
him
saye
these
wordes
,
for
the
great
good
will
that
they
did
heare
him
,
they
began
to
lament
and
wéepe
for
verie
griefe
,
and
their
teares
were
so
great
,
that
almost
they
could
not
speake
,
yet
A●●cho
sake
,
at
such
time
as
our
father
did
giue
vs
vnto
you
to
be
our
Lorde
,
he
did
not
giue
vs
for
that
you
should
make

either
Kings
or
Lords
,
neither
to
giue

anie

for
that
he
did
not
know
you
as
then
to

s●
noble
a

,
but
a
trauailing
knigh●
,
but
his

was
onely

●●at
We
〈◊〉
take

to

good

we
doe
〈…〉

▪
With
no
lesse
〈◊〉
then
Aurelio
,
his
brother
Biniano
said
as
much
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
desiring
him
that
he
would
think
well
of
them
,
and
to
take
them
with
him
in
his
companie
:
who
when
he
saw
their
great
●●portunatie
,
without
speaking
any
word
he
mounted
vpon
his
Horse
,
and
departed
out
of
the
pallace
,
and
his
squires
followed
him
,
and
being
foorth
of
the
Citie
,
they
made
so
great
haste
in
their
trauaile
,
that
when
the
daie
did
breake
,
they
were
a
great
waie
of
from
Constantinople
,
and
fearing
that
some
would
follow
after
them
,
they
left
the
high
waie
and
put
themselues
into
a
faire
gréene
&
fresh
forest
,
merua●lously
full
of
trées
,
and
in
a
part
of
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
verie
famous
and
nota●●●
,
as
well
for
the
mightinesse
thereof
,
as
to
be
verie
plaine
,
for
that
in
one
hundreth
myles
trauailing
,
you
could
not
finde
anie
one
mountaine
or
hill
,
the
which
was
verie
fresh
and
delightfull
,
full
of
orchards
and
gardines
,
and
thick
trées
,
that
few
times
they
that
doth
enter
into
the
same
,
can
finde
the
way
out
againe
.
And
trauailing
in
the
same
this
valiant
knight
with
his
heart
so
furious
and
full
of
sorow
,
griefe
and
anger
,
that
he
thought
it
would
breake
within
his
bodie
.
His
squires
séeing
him
so
full
of
anguish
and
griefe
,
they
kept
themselues
a
good
waie
behinde
him
,
for
feare
of
his
wrath
and
displeasure
,
but
he
was
so
pe●s●ue
and
heauie
in
his
heart
and
minde
,
that
his
Horse
carryed
him
at
his
pleasure
,
for
that
he
made
no
accompt
to
rule
him
to
the
one
side
nor
vnto
the
other
:
and
as
he
rode
all
alone
,
in
these
pensine
cogitations
,
as
you
before
haue
heard
,
they
heard
him
saie
as
followeth
.
OH
traytor
and
false
knight
,
whether
doest
thou
goe
,
and
what
dost
thou
●éeke
,
how
is
it
th●at
thou
doest
now
liue
in
the
world
,
hauing
committed
so
great
treason
:
O●
earth
why
doest
thou
not
▪
open
and
swallow
me
vp
into
thy
profoundnesse
,
for
that
such
a
traitor
as
I
am
doth
not
delexue
other
sepulchre
:
Oh
if
it
were
Gods
will
,
that
thou
diddest
now
open
,
and
that
all
the
foure
Glements
might
fall
together
vpon
me
,
as
the
fire
did
against
Ale●b●atl●s
the
good
Captaine
of
Grecia
,
and
the
aire
and
water
as
against
Pompeyo
,
being
drowned
in
the
deep
seas
of
Aegypt
,
&
Alexander
horne
in
Epiro
,
and
drowned
in
the
●iuer
Lucano
,
Likewise
that
the
earth
might
bée
against
me
,
as
it
was
against
him
,
who
with
a
great
and
mightie
armie
was
drowned
●n
the
sants
:
Oh
high
and
coniealed
cloudes
,
how
swéete
and
in
peaceable
sorte
shoulde
●ound
in
my
eares
the
timerous
noise
of
your
wonderfull
and
sodaine
thunders
,
if
that
from
them
might
descend
vpon
me
the
beames
of
burning
fire
,
as
they
did
descend
vpon
Carro
Emperor
of
Rome
in
the
wars
of
Tigre
,
and
vpon
Hosti●●o
king
of
the
Romanes
,
who
béeing
in
his
pallace
,
was
slaine
by
two
sodaine
lightninges
:
Oh
that
my
force
and
strength
were
so
contrarie
now
vnto
me
,
as
was
the
force
of
Milo
,
and
that
this
my
horse
might
drawe
mée
through
this
forrest
,
or
that
by
some
other
occasion
I
might
end
my
life
,
so
that
I
dyd
it
not
my selfe
for
the
safegard
of
my
soule
,
and
when
that
all
these
disasters
dooth
faile
mée
,
then
doe
I
desire
God
that
my
wittes
may
faile
me
,
and
my
vnderstanding
,
as
did
Hercules
and
Aiax
Telamon
the
Gréeke
,
for
that
I
being
mad
&
furious
as
they
were
,
might
not
féele
my
misfortune
and
vnhappie
lot
.
What
is
he
in
all
the
world
that
euer
felt
anie
anguish
,
sorrow
,
and
griefe
,
that
may
be
compared
vnto
mine
?
What
shall
I
doo
,
and
whether
shall
I
goe
?
Why
should
I
liue
anie
longer
vpon
the
earth
,
for
that
I
haue
not
alonelie
bene
a
traitour
vnto
my
Ladie
and
mistres
,
but
also
as
a
mortall
enimie
I
haue
laid
vpon
her
with
my
sword
?
What
misfortune
may
happen
worse
vnto
me
than
this
,
to
sée
her
desire
my
death
,
in
whome
standeth
all
the
state
of
my
life
,
yet
haue
I
committed
against
her
so
great
euill
and
errour
,
that
shée
hath
iust
cause
to
procure
my
death
,
and
I
lacke
of
reason
for
to
excuse
me
,
but
now
séeing
that
it
is
so
,
that
I
am
abhorred
of
my
Ladie
,
I
will
not
kill
my selfe
,
for
the
safegard
of
my
soule
lyke
a
faithfull
Christian
,
but
I
will
thether
whereas
none
shall
know
nor
heare
anie
newes
of
me
whether
I
hée
ali●ie
or
dead
,
yea
,
there
whereas
the
brute
beasts
cannot
liue
,
for
that
so
false
and
distoiall
a
man
as
I
am
deserueth
not
to
liue
,
whereas
they
do
receiue
comfort
of
the
Sun
and
the
swéetnesse
of
the
aire
.
So
saying
these
and
many
other
things
,
this
good
knight
trauailed
,
being
verie
furious
,
not
desiring
anie
other
thing
,
but
wherein
it
might
cost
him
his
life
.
And
as
he
trauailed
a
space
in
this
sort
,
and
being
entered
a
good
waie
into
the
wildernesse
,
looking
before
him
that
waie
which
his
horse
carried
him
,
he
sawe
come
forth
out
of
a
narrow
path
,
from
amongst
a
bushment
of
thicke
trées
,
a
mightie
bigge
knight
,
mounted
vpon
a
mightie
horse
,
all
armed
in
blacke
armour
,
so
bigge
membred
,
that
he
lacked
little
to
be
a
Gyant
,
and
as
hée
drew
nigh
vnto
him
,
hée
sawe
that
hée
carryed
his
●eauer
lift
vp
,
and
that
he
was
of
so
furious
semblaunce
,
and
braue
countenaunce
,
and
by
his
bigge
stature
and
well
proportioned
members
,
hée
séemed
to
bée
verie
valiant
,
and
séeing
him
come
in
this
manner
,
he
sayde
within
himselfe
.
Oh
that
my
fortune
were
such
,
that
this
whom
I
now
méete
,
were
that
Milo
,
or
that
mightie
Hercules
,
or
some
other
of
no
lesse
force
,
strength
,
and
valiantnesse
than
they
,
that
might
so
●orment
my
strength
in
such
sorte
,
that
this
my
bodie
so
dis●oial
,
might
remaine
in
these
fieldes
for
●oode
,
vnto
the
brute
beasts
:
but
my
soule
into
the
place
of
ease
in
eternall
glorie
,
for
whome
it
was
created
.
In
saying
these
wordes
,
this
bigge
knight
mer●ailing
verie
much
at
the
braue
and
gentle
disposition
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
dyd
staie
his
mightie
horse
,
and
beholding
him
hée
sayd
:
Tell
mée
Knight
,
art
thou
by
fortune
of
the
court
of
the
Emperour
●rebatio
?
I
am
,
sayde
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
Then
tell
me
,
if
thou
commest
from
thence
,
if
there
remaineth
a
knight
that
is
called
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
sayd
this
bigge
knight
?
Wherefore
wouldest
thou
knowe
this
,
sayd
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
?
I
would
know
this
,
sayd
●he
other
,
for
that
I
come
from
a
farre
Countrie
in
his
demand
,
for
to
kill
him
.
The
knight
of
the
Sun
was
so
farre
out
of
order
and
angrie
,
that
it
grieued
him
nothing
to
heare
him
saie
so
,
&
therefore
he
said
:
Tell
mée
who
thou
art
,
and
what
is
the
occasion
that
thou
wilt
kil
him
,
for
that
I
am
he
that
in
this
world
doth
most
desire
the
death
of
this
knight
,
and
if
thou
doest
tell
mée
this
which
I
doe
aske
thée
,
I
wil
tell
thée
where
thou
shalt
finde
this
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
not
farre
from
this
place
thou
shalt
méete
with
him
.
Then
the
great
knight
who
was
glad
of
these
newes
,
sayd
:
Thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
I
am
called
Brandimardo
,
and
sonne
to
Affricano
that
was
king
of
Media
,
hée
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
slew
in
Babylon
,
and
I
am
come
for
no
other
thing
into
this
Countrie
,
but
to
reuenge
the
death
of
my
Father
,
and
trauailing
towardes
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
there
were
certaine
Knights
which
did
misvse
mée
,
and
hauing
battaile
with
them
,
of
seauen
that
were
together
I
slew
foure
,
and
the
other
thrée
fled
,
and
harboured
themselues
in
this
wildernesse
,
&
I
following
them
lost
my
waie
,
in
such
sort
,
that
I
haue
béene
foure
dayes
wandering
héerein
without
eating
anie
other
thing
than
such
wilde
fruites
as
these
trées
doth
yéeld
.
This
is
the
whole
resolution
of
thy
demaund
,
therefore
tell
mée
now
that
which
thou
promisedst
vnto
mée
,
for
that
I
shall
receiue
so
greate
pleasure
as
though
I
were
made
Lorde
ouer
all
the
world
,
to
méete
with
this
knight
so
quicklie
as
thou
hast
sayde
.
Then
Brandimardo
(
sayde
hée
)
thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
I
am
this
knight
of
the
Sunne
whome
thou
doest
seeke
,
and
truth
it
is
that
I
slew
Affricano
in
a
valiant
battael
that
we
hadde
in
the
mightie
Citie
of
Babylon
,
but
I
slewe
him
in
equall
battayle
béeing
defied
by
him
first
,
so
that
thou
nor
none
other
hath
anie
reason
for
to
demaund
his
death
at
my
handes
.
Oh
immortall
Gods
(
sayd
Brandimardo
)
what
great
curtesie
is
this
that
your
diuine
maiesties
hath
shewed
vnto
me
this
daie
,
in
that
I
haue
met
with
this
knight
,
which
is
the
thing
that
I
haue
most
desired
in
this
world
.
And
in
saying
these
words
he
put
downe
his
beauer
,
and
hauing
neuer
a
speare
,
for
that
he
brake
his
with
the
seauen
knights
that
before
●he
did
combat
with
,
hée
drew
out
a
verie
heauie
and
〈…〉
,
and
layd
〈◊〉
the
Knight
of
the
Sun
;
Come
〈◊〉
and
let
us
begin
the
battaile
,
for
that
I
am
determined
not
to
depart
from
hence
till
such
time
as
one
of
vs
doth
remaine
héere
dead
in
this
wildernesse
.
Then
the
kni●ht
of
the
Sunne
béeing
determined
not
to
make
battayle
with
him
with
〈◊〉
woord
,
for
that
hée
had
stroken
therewith
the
〈◊〉
Claridiana
his
〈◊〉
,
supposing
that
there
was
no
knight
worthie
to
receiue
anie
blowes
therewith
,
hée
went
vnto
an
ouer-growen
Oke
,
whose
branches
were
very
bigge
,
he
set
both
his
handes
vnto
a
branch
thereof
,
and
dyd
teare
it
as
though
it
had
bene
a
great
willow
,
and
cutting
off
the
●●al
branch●s
,
and
reteining
it
with
his
hands
,
he
made
〈…〉
full
of
knots
,
and
of
so
great
waight
,
that
sonie
other
knight
had
inough
to
doe
to
lift
it
from
the
ground
.
But
Brandimardo
séeing
that
hée
would
enter
with
him
in
〈◊〉
,
not
knowing
what
should
moue
him
therevnto
,
hauing
other
weapon
,
he
sayd
:
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
wherfore
haue
you
done
this
,
hauing
at
thy
girdle
a
sword
?
It
sée●eth
vnto
:
me
that
thou
haddest
rather
make
thy
bat●aile
with
bat●es
like
a
base
Countrie
man
,
than
with
thy
sword
,
as
becommeth
a
good
knight
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
sayd
:
Thou
shalt
vnderstand
Brandimardo
,
that
I
do
refuse
to
make
battaile
with
my
sword
for
no
other
thing
●ilt
this
,
for
that
few
dai●s
past
(
without
anie
knowledge
thereof
)
I
made
battaile
with
a
damsell
who
is
of
high
estate
〈…〉
,
considering
that
I
did
strike
and
oppresse
her
●here
with
,
there
is
no
mortall
knight
that
is
worthie
to
〈…〉
blowe
therewith
,
and
héere
I
do
tell
thee
,
that
first
I
woulde
consent
to
bée
torne
in
peeces
than
to
vn●heath
it
to
strike
thée
.
This
Brandimardo
was
a
young
knight
,
〈…〉
Affricano
was
slaine
,
hee
had
not
〈◊〉
the
order
of
Knighthoode
,
and
was
one
of
the
most
valiantest
&
strongest
that
was
to
bée
found
in
all
the
Pagan
Countrie
,
&
as
it
seemed
afterward
vnto
the
〈◊〉
of
the
Sunne
,
he
was
of
●reater
force
and
strength
than
his
Father
,
and
w●s
of
more
dexteritie
in
battaile
.
Also
with
this
he
was
verie
furious
and
s●●ut
,
that
at
such
time
as
he
was
ang●ie
,
there
was
none
so
hardie
as
durst
abide
before
him
,
although
they
were
a
thousand
knightes
,
yet
hée
feared
not
them
for
that
he
was
so
valiant
and
hardie
,
who
séeing
that
his
aduersarie
wold
not
make
battaile
with
the
sword
,
because
he
would
not
haue
that
va●ntage
,
he
shea●hed
his
sword
againe
,
and
went
vnto
that
great
Oke
whereas
th●
knight
of
the
Sun
had
rent
off
his
branch
,
hée
set
both
his
handes
vnto
another
of
no
lesse
greatnesse
than
his
,
and
renting
it
off
with
great
facilitie
,
as
one
of
great
s●rength
,
after
that
hée
had
dressed
and
righted
it
in
the
best
manner
he
could
,
with
great
furie
he
went
against
the
●night
of
the
Sunne
,
who
was
abiding
his
comming
,
at
which
meeting
,
they
did
the
one
charge
vpon
the
other
with
so
〈◊〉
furie
.
that
before
hath
not
beene
séene
a
battaile
in
such
order
and
of
so
vnvsuall
weapons
,
so
well
foughten
,
for
the
the●r
blowes
were
verie
thicke
,
and
stroke
with
outragious
●urie
,
in
such
sorte
that
there
was
none
that
●id
behold
them
but
had
great
feare
and
dreade
onelie
in
the
sight
of
their
blowes
.
In
this
sort
they
〈◊〉
more
than
one
houre
,
and
neuer
〈◊〉
,
charging
one
another
that
it
was
wonderfull
to
behold
,
and
no
aduantage
knowen
of
either
part
,
yet
were
they
greatly
am●zed
e●●●er
of
them
at
the
force
and
〈…〉
in
e●peciall
Brandimardo
,
for
that
before
●●me
hee
had
〈◊〉
the
force
of
many
knightes
and
s●out
〈…〉
did
he
neuer
proue
the
like
in
all
points
,
〈…〉
in
him
which
was
before
him
,
&
that
not
without
great
reason
he
was
so
praised
and
e●alted
amongest
all
the
〈◊〉
,
yet
notwithstanding
of
his
person
he
was
〈…〉
and
furious
,
that
not
one
point
of
his
courage
dyd
〈◊〉
him
in
that
battaile
,
but
he
did
in
such
sorte
inforce
〈◊〉
and
charge
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
hee
gaue
him
verie
wel
to
vnderstand
,
that
it
was
conuenient
to
vse
the
vtterm●st
of
his
courage
,
and
the
two
Squires
that
were
present
dyd
tremble
for
verie
feare
to
see
with
what
great
furie
these
two
dyd
make
their
terrible
combat
,
but
both
these
knightes
béeing
verie
full
of
wrath
and
anger
because
the
battaile
endured
so
long
betwixt
them
,
they
stretched
themselues
vppon
their
stiroppes
,
and
tooke
their
knotted
battes
in
both
theyr
handes
,
and
stroke
each
other
such
terrible
blowes
vppon
their
healmes
,
that
all
astonyed
they
both
fell
downe
vppon
their
horses
neckes
forwardes
,
and
their
bat●es
béeing
broken
al
to
péeces
flew
into
the
aire
and
made
a
terrible
noise
,
but
when
these
noble
warriours
came
vnto
their
remembraunces
and
found
themselues
without
weapon
,
either
of
them
layde
handes
vppon
his
aduersarie
,
and
dyd
embrace
other
with
so
great
strength
,
that
it
séemed
their
breasts
and
backes
would
méete
together
,
if
theyr
good
armour
had
not
defended
the
same
.
In
this
sorte
they
were
wrastling
the
one
with
the
other
a
good
while
without
anie
aduauntage
,
so
that
in
conclusion
they
were
constrained
to
separate
themselues
,
and
with
greate
furie
either
of
them
ranne
vnto
a
mightie
Oke
,
and
laying
holde
on
bigger
branches
than
before
they
had
,
with
great
swiftnesse
they
fore
them
off
,
and
dressing
them
in
the
best
wise
they
could
,
they
returned
vnto
their
former
battaile
,
striking
the
one
vppon
the
other
so
strong
and
mightie
blowes
,
that
all
the
wide
and
great
wildernesse
dyd
sound
at
the
furie
of
them
.
But
yet
this
second
battaile
dyd
indure
but
a
while
,
for
that
although
that
Brandimardo
was
verie
valiant
,
and
shewed
himselfe
to
●ée
excéeding
stout
and
furious
,
yet
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
béeing
wrathfull
and
kindled
in
ire
,
at
his
terrible
blowes
there
was
no
resistance
to
bée
made
,
for
that
hée
stroke
them
in
such
order
and
so
thicke
,
that
this
stout
Brandimardo
dyd
plainlie
see
that
his
strength
dyd
increase
,
and
repented
himselfe
that
euer
hée
came
from
so
farre
Countries
to
haue
contention
with
him
,
yet
notwithstanding
because
he
would
vauntage
himselfe
of
his
great
strength
,
hée
raysed
himselfe
in
his
stiroppes
,
and
with
both
his
handes
hée
stroke
such
a
blowe
at
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
hée
astonied
him
,
and
his
horse
carried
him
about
the
field
:
but
Brandimardo
dyd
not
long
glorie
in
giuing
this
blowe
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
straight
wayes
againe
vnto
his
remembraunce
,
abandoned
with
wrath
and
〈◊〉
,
hée
returned
his
horse
with
great
furie
,
and
with
both
his
handes
hée
stroke
him
so
furious
a
blowe
vppon
the
his
healme
,
that
hée
made
it
flie
from
his
head
a
great
waie
from
him
,
and
gaue
a
●ound
lyke
a
Bell
,
and
his
mightie
bat
fell
to
the
ground
all
to
shieuered
,
Brandimardo
remaining
so
astonished
and
from
himselfe
,
as
though
hée
had
béene
dead
,
and
laie
a
long●
vppon
his
horse
necke
,
voiding
from
his
mouth
,
nose
,
and
eyes
great
abundaunce
of
bloud
,
his
horse
béeing
tormented
with
the
force
thereof
,
dyd
carrie
his
maister
into
the
woode
amongest
the
thicke
trées
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
not
making
anie
staying
,
he
ranne
more
than
two
miles
with
him
before
that
euer
Brandimardo
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
séeing
him
in
that
case
,
dyd
leaue
him
,
without
making
anie
account
thereof
,
but
forthwith
sette
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
and
rode
forwardes
on
his
iourney
,
saying
vnto
himselfe
.
Oh
that
I
had
met
with
Brandimardo
at
some
other
time
than
now
,
then
would
I
haue
made
more
account
of
him
,
and
woulde
haue
done
him
more
honour
than
I
dyd
at
this
present
,
for
that
he
séemeth
vnto
me
to
be
a
merua●lous
good
and
valiant
knight
.
But
what
account
can
hée
make
of
another
,
that
estéemeth
not
his
owne
lyfe
?
In
this
sorte
trauailed
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
foure
daies
in
that
wildernesse
,
wheresoeuer
his
horse
woulde
carrie
him
,
and
not
by
his
gouernment
,
maintaining
himselfe
with
such
wilde
fruit
as
were
there
nourished
,
no
more
than
was
sufficient
to
nourish
nature
,
because
hée
would
not
kill
himselfe
despera●lie
.
It
was
one
houre
after
the
battaile
was
ended
before
that
the
stout
Brandimardo
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
who
finding
himselfe
alone
and
without
his
healme
,
his
no●e
and
face
all
swelled
,
and
his
eares
full
of
bloud
,
hée
straight
wayes
●ell
into
reckoning
in
what
perplexitie
and
miserie
h●●
was
brought
,
then
like
a
mad
man
,
●urious
,
and
from
himselfe
,
hee
did
blaspheme
against
his
Gods
,
and
against
all
their
powers
,
for
that
they
had
shewed
themselues
so
contrarie
against
him
,
and
returning
to
séeke
his
healme
,
the
Hystorie
dooth
leaue
him
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
to
tell
you
what
passed
in
this
time
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
●rebatio
.
How
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
was
found
lacking
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
being
all
verie
sad
and
sorrowfull
,
there
came
Letters
from
the
wi●e
Lyrgandeo
,
which
made
them
all
amazed
.
Chap.
13.
THE
night
being
past
in
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
departed
,
earlie
in
the
morning
the
next
daie
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
with
his
sonne
Rosicleer
,
accompamed
with
those
worthie
Princes
and
Knightes
,
went
vnto
his
chamber
for
to
sée
him
,
but
when
they
could
not
finde
him
,
his
armour
,
nor
his
squires
,
they
were
all
verie
sorrie
for
his
sodaine
departure
,
yet
wer
they
glad
because
he
was
escaped
and
void
of
perill
:
but
the
Emperour
commaunded
straight
waies
that
many
knights
should
goe
forth
and
séeke
him
,
as
also
the
straunge
knight
,
for
that
he
was
verie
sorrowfull
that
he
departed
in
such
sort
without
knowing
him
,
because
he
shewed
himselfe
to
be
a
valiant
and
worthie
knight
.
So
by
reason
of
the
departure
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
were
all
that
daie
in
suspence
,
being
all
together
in
a
quadran
that
was
in
the
great
hal
,
after
that
dinner
was
done
,
there
entered
in
at
the
doore
of
the
pallace
,
a
Gentlewoman
of
verie
strange
attire
,
contrarie
vnto
that
Countrie
,
and
after
her
entered
a
sauage
Gyant
,
f●erce
and
terrible
to
beholde
,
without
anie
other
apparell
or
armour
,
but
a
verie
thicke
and
bushie
haire
wherewith
he
was
couered
,
with
two
great
hornes
lyke
a
Bull
on
his
●orehead
,
and
a
great
taile
behinde
him
like
an
Oxe
,
who
brought
vpon
his
shoulder
a
chest
fast
locked
,
and
made
no
more
a
doe
at
his
entering
into
the
hall
,
but
set
it
downe
on
the
ground
,
and
so
departed
againe
that
he
was
neuer
more
séene
,
whose
strange
〈◊〉
,
caused
great
laughter
vnto
the
Emperour
and
all
those
worth●e
Princes
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
great
feare
and
dread
vnto
the
Empresse
,
the
princesse
O●uia
and
Lindaraza
,
and
vnto
all
the
rest
of
the
Ladies
and
damsells
that
were
there
present
,
for
that
his
sauage
countenaunce
was
verie
terrible
to
behold
.
Then
the
strange
gentlewoman
making
great
reuere●ce
vnto
the
Emperour
,
said
as
followeth
.
HE
that
doth
rule
and
gouerne
the
high
Heauens
and
Earth
,
saue
and
increase
thy
high
estate
,
most
mightie
Emperour
Trebatio
:
the
wise
Lirgandeo
,
&
the
king
Florion
of
Persia
,
(
who
greatly
desireth
to
serue
thée
)
as
well
for
the
highnesse
of
thy
person
,
as
for
the
great
friendship
that
they
haue
with
thy
sonne
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
doe
send
gréeting
,
and
doe
kisse
thy
emperiall
handes
,
and
doth
most
hartely
request
thée
by
mée
,
that
you
would
take
and
accept
them
as
your
owne
subiects
,
for
that
thou
shalt
find●e
them
alwaies
faithfull
and
loyall
vnto
the
death
:
and
besides
all
this
,
the
wise
Lirgandeo
doth
send
thée
this
packet
of
letters
,
by
the
which
,
as
one
that
hath
atchiued
by
his
wisedome
,
the
acknowledging
of
things
for
to
come
,
doth
giue
thée
aduisement
o●
some
that
is
requisite
and
doth
accomplish
verie
much
thy
honour
,
as
shall
appeare
by
the
same
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
,
the
gentlewoman
knéeled
downe
before
the
Emperour
,
and
kissing
his
hands
she
deliuered
vnto
him
the
letters
.
Then
the
Emperour
with
great
loue
did
cause
her
to
arise
,
and
tooke
the
letters
and
gaue
them
vnto
his
sonne
Rosicleer
,
for
to
reade
them
,
who
did
open
them
and
reade
them
,
that
all
that
were
present
,
might
heare
it
,
the
contents
were
as
followeth
.
HIgh
and
mightie
Emperour
of
Grecia
,
although
these
my
letters
be
strange
and
new
vnto
thée
,
yet
is
it
no
new
thing
,
in
the
good
wil
which
I
haue
to
serue
thée
,
for
that
aboue
all
Princes
in
the
world
thou
doest
deserue
the
same
,
as
also
for
the
great
dutie
and
seruice
in
which
we
are
bound
vnto
thy
sonne
,
doeth
constraine
vs
to
acknowledge
thée
to
be
our
Lord
,
and
to
giue
the
counsell
as
vnto
our
v●rie
good
friend
.
The
hearts
of
valiant
and
stout
barons
,
there
is
nothing
suffi●ient
to
disturbe
them
,
and
there●ore
in
few
words
I
will
shew
thée
the
cause
wherefore
I
doe
write
vnto
thée
.
Thou
shalt
vnderstande
good
Emperour
,
that
all
the
Pagans
of
the
〈…〉
against
thée
,
and
in
a
short
time
there
will
〈◊〉
together
so
great
an
armie
,
that
those
of
Darins
&
Xerxes
,
altogether
were
not
so
manie
,
and
the
chiefe
Captaine
and
generall
of
them
all
is
,
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
father
vnto
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
Emperour
of
the
〈◊〉
,
king
of
the
Scitas
and
Lord
ouer
the
orientall
region
,
who
as
thy
〈…〉
will
passe
into
Grecia
;
with
determination
and
good
will
for
●o
destroy
th●e
.
He
hath
in
his
companie
so
manie
〈◊〉
and
valiant
knightes
&
other
of
mightie
stature
,
that
it
shall
be
requisite
,
thy
great
power
and
valiant
courage
,
with
the
ayde
and
helpe
of
all
thy
friends
.
On
the
other
side
doth
arise
the
〈◊〉
regions
,
who
with
great
and
mightie
armies
,
shall
〈◊〉
all
the
Grocian
fieldes
against
thée
,
but
haue
a
good
heart
i●
all
things
,
and
make
thy selfe
readie●
for
that
these
mightie
things
are
not
ordained
for
base
stomacks
,
but
for
the
mightie
and
generous
as
thou
art
.
Neither
doth
the
valiantnesse
of
the
heart
shew
it selfe
so
much
,
as
it
doth
in
receiuing
the
〈◊〉
blowes
of
Fortune
,
who
alwaies
showeth
it selfe
most
contrarie
,
at
such
time
as
he
is
exalted
vnto
the
highest
of
her
whole
.
And
for
that
all
that
euer
I
can
declare
vnto
thée
in
this
matter
is
spoken
of
in
a
Prophesie
,
which
the
wise
Artemidoro
writ
vpon
the
fore front
of
this
palace
,
I
wil
inlarge
no
〈◊〉
,
but
saye
,
that
all
shall
come
to
passe
as
it
is
ther
written
.
Also
my
nephew
king
〈◊〉
and
I
,
wil
be
shortly
in
Grecia
,
with
so
much
people
as
possible
we
〈◊〉
,
and
take
you
no
sorow
and
grief●
for
the
〈◊〉
of
the
knight
of
the
〈◊〉
for
although
manie
daie●
sha●●
passe
before
you
sée
him
,
yet
the
time
will
come
,
that
his
sight
shal
be
more
acceptable
vnto
thy
royall
person
,
then
at
this
present
,
wherewith
▪
I
conclude
in
kissing
thy
Emperiall
hands
.
This
Letter
being
read
by
Rosicleer
,
it
caused
in
them
some
alteration
,
saue
onelie
in
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
in
him
that
did
reade
it
,
for
the
which
they
〈◊〉
moued
semblance
,
neither
did
appeare
in
their
faces
that
they
receiued
anie
trouble
thereat
,
although
the
Letter
did
import
much
matter
of
great
importance
,
because
in
equal
sort
they
could
suffer
both
aduersitie
and
prosperitie
.
This
béeing
done
,
the
Gentlewoman
did
straight
waies
open
the
coffer
that
the
sauage
brought
in
,
&
tooke
out
thereof
a
sute
of
armour
all
red
,
of
so
fine
a
coulour
and
glittering
stéele
,
that
all
the
péeces
thereof
séemed
as
though
they
had
béene
made
of
fine
Rubies
,
and
vpon
the
●réast
of
the
〈◊〉
there
a
crowne
of
verie
〈◊〉
and
rich
s●ones
,
that
〈◊〉
them
verie
wel
to
vnderstand
for
whom
it
was
.
And
when
she
had
taken
it
all
out
,
shée
turned
her selfe
vnto
the
Emperour
and
saide
:
This
armour
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
doth
send
vnto
thée
,
for
that
considering
the
great
daungers
and
perilles
that
are
ordained
against
thée
,
hée
hath
nothing
at
this
present
to
send
thée
,
that
shall
bée
more
profitable
,
and
hée
doth
desire
thée
that
thou
wilt
put
on
no
other
armour
but
this
,
for
that
hée
hath
made
it
with
his
owne
handes
,
and
vsed
therein
all
his
knowledge
,
onelie
for
the
safegard
of
thy
person
.
The
Emperour
Trebatio
was
verie
gladde
and
ioyfull
of
that
armour
the
which
the
Gentlewoman
brought
him
,
but
much
more
of
the
good
aduise
and
warning
the
which
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
dyd
write
him
,
as
from
his
good
and
perfect
friend
,
and
knew
not
how
to
gratifie
so
great
friendship
&
good
wil
as
the
wise
man
did
shew
vnto
him
.
Then
those
mightie
Princes
&
worthie
knights
which
were
there
present
,
sayde
vnto
the
Emperour
,
that
it
was
good
he
should
vnderstand
in
putting
remedie
to
preuent
that
which
the
wise
man
did
giue
him
warning
of
,
&
to
put
all
the
people
of
his
Empire
in
a
read●nesse
that
he
bée
not
taken
tardie
,
and
also
to
write
vnto
his
friendes
for
their
ai●e
and
helpe
all
that
was
possible
.
So
amongest
them
all
,
●he
first
that
arose
vppe
was
the
Prince
Clauerindo
,
and
offered
himselfe
to
departe
out
of
hande
into
the
kingdome
of
Fraunce
,
and
to
bring
from
thence
all
the
people
that
euer
he
could
make
.
Then
straightwaies
arose
vp
the
good
king
Sacridoro
,
and
said
as
much
:
and
after
him
Bargandel
of
Bohemia
,
and
the
two
princes
Rodomarte
and
Rodofeo
,
and
many
other
mo
that
were
there
present
,
and
subiect
vnto
the
Emperour
,
whome
altogether
did
offer
vnto
him
ayde
,
with
their
owne
persons
,
and
with
all
the
people
that
they
might
well
bring
out
of
their
countries
.
Here
the
valiant
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
could
not
offer
anie
ayde
or
helpe
vnto
the
Emperour
,
for
that
he
was
certaine
and
sure
,
that
the
king
his
father
,
and
all
his
people
would
not
be
against
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
neither
could
not
that
worthy
Oristedes
,
for
that
the
people
of
that
destroyed
Troy
,
were
verie
fewe
,
neither
could
not
the
king
Alamades
,
for
that
hi●
kingdome
of
Cornewall
,
was
in
great
Britaine
▪
Likewise
the
Prince
Liriamandro
,
for
that
he
was
fullie
certified
,
that
his
Father
the
King
of
Hungaria
,
came
in
the
fauour
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
against
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
but
yet
all
foure
of
them
did
offer
to
ayde
him
with
their
persons
,
promising
neuer
to
faile
him
,
so
long
as
life
did
last
.
At
which
friendly
offer
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
receiued
so
great
ioye
&
pleasure
to
sée
with
what
good
will
they
did
offer
themselues
,
that
his
ioye
did
much
more
surmount
the
anger
that
he
receued
,
when
he
heard
the
newes
sent
him
by
the
wise
Lirgandeo
,
and
gaue
vnto
his
sonne
Rosicleer
,
the
charge
in
aunswering
of
the
wise
man
,
gratifying
him
very
much
for
his
good
aduice
,
as
also
for
the
ayde
of
his
person
and
people
,
as
he
wrote
vnto
him
.
So●
Rosicleer
,
tooke
the
charge
vppon
him
for
to
dispat●h
the
Dainsell
,
vnto
whome
the
Empresse
his
Mother
gaue
many
rich
and
precious
iewells
.
And
he
wrote
vnto
the
wise
man
a
letter
,
in
the
name
of
the
Emperour
,
such
a
one
,
that
he
receued
great
pleasure
in
the
sight
thereof
.
So
after
that
this
Damsell
was
departed
from
the
Citie
,
within
fewe
dayes
after
the
prince
Clauerindo
departed
for
France
,
and
Ba●gandel
for
Bohemia
,
and
the
other
princes
euery
one
into
his
owne
countrie
.
Then
the
good
king
Sacridoro
at
such
time
as
hée
shoulde
depart
towards
his
Countrie
,
hee
went
to
take
his
leaue
of
his
great
friend
Rosicleer
,
who
as
vnto
the
best
friende
hee
had
in
the
worlde
,
did
embrace
him
,
and
not
without
shedding
of
many
teares
,
he
sayd
.
Ah
my
good
friends
,
I
had
thought
that
all
my
euill
fortunes
had
bene
concluded
,
that
you
might
haue
gone
,
as
is
great
reason
,
to
haue
taken
your
rest
and
ease
,
whereas
you
haue
béene
so
long
looked
for
of
that
worthie
●●éene
Oriselua
,
but
now
I
sée
my
fortune
to
be
such
,
that
wh●●
a
man
doth
thinke
himselfe
to
bée
at
most
quietnesse
a●d
ease
,
then
doth
shée
beginne
a
new
to
giue
mee
troubles
,
to
that
new
I
haue
more
néede
of
your
helpe
and
aide
th●n
heeretof●●e
,
desiring
of
God
to
gratifie
you
for
the
same
,
for
that
of
my selfe
I
am
not
able
,
and
hee
doth
well
〈◊〉
how
●●●uous
it
is
to
mée
as
now
to
leaue
your
〈…〉
considering
the
state
of
all
thinges
,
it
is
〈…〉
I
should
be
absent
one
daie
from
the
Court
.
Then
the
good
king
Sacridoro
with
great
loue
dyd
embrace
Rosicleer
,
and
sayd
.
My
good
Lorde
,
in
nothing
can
fortune
shew
her selfe
more
fauourable
vnto
me
,
than
to
of●er
occasion
wherein
I
may
imploie
the
good
will
that
I
haue
to
serue
you
,
onelie
to
paie
parte
of
that
wherein
I
am
so
greatlie
bound
vnto
you
,
and
these
which
you
doe
call
misfortunes
,
are
vnto
mee
good
and
happie
fortunes
,
as
well
to
haue
occasion
not
to
loose
your
companie
so
soone
,
which
is
so
acceptable
vnto
me
,
as
also
the
more
for
the
extolling
of
your
fortune
:
and
my
good
Lorde
,
you
ought
not
so
greatlie
to
〈◊〉
that
thinges
should
so
fall
out
to
make
you
carefull
,
and
put
your
friendes
to
trouble
,
for
that
béeing
your
Father
and
brother
and
you
of
so
great
highnesse
,
of
pu●e
force
you
shoulde
shew
your selfe
stout
against
enuie
,
and
enimie
vnto
them
of
the
worlde
,
for
that
the
most
highest
Pine
〈◊〉
are
more
assaulted
of
the
windes
than
the
other
lowe
tr●es
,
and
the
highest
mountaines
more
subiect
vnto
the
thundering
and
tempests
that
are
conicaled
in
the
Clowdes
.
Thus
these
and
many
other
thinges
passed
betwéene
these
two
good
and
perfect
friendes
,
till
such
times
as
with
many
teares
they
tooke
their
leaue
the
one
of
the
other
.
So
after
that
the
king
Sacridoro
had
taken
his
leaue
of
the
Emperour
,
the
Empresse
,
and
of
all
the
rest
of
his
friends
,
hée
departed
out
of
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
comming
to
the
sea
side
,
he
dyd
embarke
himselfe
in
a
good
shippe
,
and
made
saile
towards
the
kingdome
of
Antiochia
,
and
Rosicleer
remained
in
great
solitarinesse
for
lacke
of
his
companie
,
for
that
the
loue
which
hée
bare
vnto
him
was
verie
greate
,
who
séeing
how
much
it
did
touch
him
,
that
which
shoulde
happen
,
although
his
father
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
with
great
diligence
did
vnderstand
in
the
prouiding
of
all
things
necessarie
.
He
likewise
on
the
other
part
did
all
that
euer
he
could
for
to
ioyne
together
the
armie
,
and
in
writing
vnto
his
friends
,
giuing
them
to
vnderstand
of
the
great
néede
that
he
had
of
them
.
But
the
absence
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
vnto
him
verie
grieuous
,
for
that
he
would
not
that
at
that
time
he
should
bée
absent
from
the
Court
,
and
for
to
tel
you
what
passed
with
him
,
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
the
other
till
time
.
How
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
forth
of
the
wildernes
of
Grecia
,
and
sailing
by
sea
,
was
by
a
mightie
storme
carried
vnto
the
solitarie
Iland
,
whereas
was
the
diuellish
Fauno
.
Chap.
14.
WIth
great
sorrow
&
griefe
did
this
Historie
leaue
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
trauailing
through
that
wide
,
long
,
&
thicke
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
after
that
he
had
made
the
battaile
with
Brandimardo
,
in
the
which
he
trauailed
many
daies
,
and
could
neuer
find
the
waie
out
,
in
which
time
there
happened
vnto
him
many
great
and
notable
aduentures
,
the
which
the
author
doth
leaue
to
rehearse
,
for
to
make
short
this
first
part
.
So
after
a
good
while
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
trauailed
in
that
wildernesse
alone
with
his
two
Squires
,
in
the
end
he
came
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whose
fortune
was
such
,
that
at
the
same
instant
there
was
come
a
land
out
of
a
boat
certaine
Mariners
that
came
to
séeke
fresh
water
for
a
ship
that
was
at
the
sea
a
good
waie
from
the
land
,
in
the
which
ship
was
to
the
number
of
thirtie
knights
that
came
from
the
Iland
of
Cand●a
,
and
were
bound
vnto
M●fia
,
which
is
now
called
Transiluania
,
vnto
certaine
triumphs
and
feasts
that
were
there
ordained
,
and
as
the
Mariners
were
returning
for
to
imbarke
themselues
,
the
knight
of
the
Sun
did
request
them
to
receiue
him
into
their
boate
,
for
that
it
stood
him
〈◊〉
vppon
to
passe
into
the
Country
.
The
Mariners
séeing
him
of
so
gentle
disposition
&
wel
armed
,
they
durst
not
say
to
the
●entrarie
,
but
said
they
were
verie
well
content
therewith
.
So
this
good
knight
did
alight
from
his
hor●e
,
&
also
his
squires
,
and
entered
into
the
boate
with
their
horses
,
the
which
being
done
,
the
Mariners
began
to
row
with
great
force
till
such
time
as
they
came
vnto
the
ship
,
whereas
they
were
verie
well
receiued
of
the
knights
,
for
that
the
comlinesse
of
his
person
,
ioyntlie
with
the
strange
riches
of
his
inchanted
ar●●or
,
caused
all
them
that
did
beholde
him
to
haue
him
in
great
estimation
,
and
to
giue
him
the
honour
that
he
deserued
,
but
when
that
he
did
lift
vp
the
beauer
of
his
〈◊〉
,
they
were
all
meruailouslie
amazed
to
see
how
nature
had
wrought
so
great
perfection
in
his
face
.
Besides
all
this
,
in
his
co●●senance
he
sh●wed
so
great
grau●tie
and
〈◊〉
,
that
as
he
was
tall
and
verie
well
made
,
that
there
was
〈◊〉
one
,
as
the
wise
Arte●ndoro
sayth
,
that
euer
dyd
see
him
,
but
his
heart
did
alter
,
and
waxed
timerous
.
And
this
was
〈◊〉
of
the
excellentest
vertues
that
was
in
this
Knight
,
th●t
hée
neuer
sawe
knight
in
the
face
,
although
he
were
a
straunger
;
or
otherwise
knowen
,
that
he
would
〈◊〉
or
make
anie
euill
account
of
him
,
and
this
vertue
did
increase
in
him
from
his
youth
,
till
such
time
as
hée
came
vnto
the
perfectnesse
of
his
strength
,
which
was
at
such
time
as
he
had
battaile
with
that
stout
and
valiaunt
Bramarant
,
as
shall
bée
shewed
you
in
the
sequ●ale
of
this
Hystorie
,
for
vntyll
that
time
,
his
force
and
strength
,
as
also
the
bignesse
of
his
members
did
dailie
increase
.
So
hauing
verie
good
entertainment
by
the
knightes
that
were
in
the
shippe
,
one
of
them
asked
him
of
whence
hée
was
,
and
he
sayde
,
that
hée
was
of
Grecia
,
and
for
that
he
sayde
no
more
vnto
them
,
there
was
not
one
of
them
that
asked
him
anie
other
questian
,
although
it
séemed
vnto
them
by
his
semblance
,
that
there
was
some
thing
that
did
trouble
and
grieue
him
verie
much
hée
was
so
heauie
.
Thus
they
trauailed
two
daies
together
with
prosperous
windes
,
passing
awaie
the
time
in
the
best
manner
hée
could
,
but
the
third
daie
there
arose
a
greate
torment
in
so
terrible
sorte
,
that
the
shippe
wherein
they
were
was
in
great
perill
to
bée
lost
.
The
windes
dyd
increase
euerie
moment
more
and
more
,
in
such
furious
sort
,
that
all
the
cunning
of
the
mariners
did
not
serue
for
the
gouernment
of
the
ship
,
but
were
driuen
of
necessitie
for
to
yéelde
her
vnto
the
curtesie
of
the
winde
and
seas
,
driuing
wheresoeuer
it
pleased
them
.
In
this
sort
were
they
tumbled
and
tossed
with
that
tempest
all
that
daie
and
the
night
following
,
without
anie
semblaunce
of
calmenesse
,
and
looked
euerie
minute
for
to
bée
cast
awaie
,
which
put
greate
feare
amongest
them
all
,
sauing
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
who
séeing
the
Sea
so
troubled
,
and
the
mightie
waues
caused
by
those
terrible
windes
,
fighting
one
with
another
,
he
was
not
alonelie
without
all
feare
,
but
also
dyd
lyke
well
thereof
,
and
it
was
agréeable
vnto
his
minde
,
as
vnto
one
that
was
wearie
of
his
owne
lyfe
,
but
the
next
daie
following
,
at
such
time
as
they
were
without
all
hope
to
escape
that
danger
,
fortune
dyd
so
serue
them
,
that
the
storme
beganne
to
asswage
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
the
Mariners
might
gouerne
their
shippe
,
but
they
found
that
they
were
put
a
great
waie
leward
from
the
place
whether
as
they
were
determined
to
goe
,
and
sailing
forwards
on
their
iourney
,
they
discouered
a
farre
off
an
Iland
,
and
out
of
the
middest
thereof
they
might
perceiue
ascend
vp
into
the
aire
at
times
,
great
flames
and
sparkes
of
fire
,
with
a
terrible
darke
and
thicke
smoake
,
as
though
they
hadde
béene
burning
of
some
drie
things
.
And
when
they
came
nigh
vnto
the
same
Ilande
,
the
knights
were
all
desirous
to
goe
there
a
land
,
for
to
ease
and
refresh
themselues
for
that
they
were
out
of
quiet
with
the
storme
passed
,
but
the
Marriners
knowing
the
Iland
,
haled
iackes
aboord
,
and
ran
of
from
the
land
all
that
euer
they
could
,
crying
out
&
saying
,
they
would
not
go
thether
,
for
that
it
was
the
Iland
of
the
diuell
,
called
the
solitarie
Iland
,
and
how
that
if
they
went
thether
they
should
all
die
the
death
.
When
the
knights
of
Candia
heard
these
wordes
,
they
were
all
greatlie
amazed
,
for
they
hadde
heard
before
time
verie
much
of
that
Iland
.
But
the
knight
of
the
Sun
who
was
inclined
by
his
valiant
heart
to
attempt
high
&
mightie
things
,
with
great
desire
for
to
sée
what
it
was
that
they
so
greatlie
feared
,
he
asked
of
the
Mariners
wherefore
they
called
that
the
Iland
of
the
Diuell
,
and
why
they
feared
so
much
the
death
if
they
should
go
thether
?
And
although
all
the
knights
that
were
there
present
had
heard
verie
much
of
the
great
perill
and
daunger
of
that
Iland
,
yet
there
was
none
that
could
declare
the
certaintie
thereof
,
but
an
olde
Pilot
that
came
as
passenger
in
the
same
shippe
,
who
had
heard
the
whole
truth
thereof
by
certaine
men
which
lefte
the
sayd
Iland
in
respect
of
the
great
daunger
,
and
he
séeing
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
great
desire
to
knowe
the
mysterie
therof
,
in
the
presence
of
all
the
knights
that
were
there
present
,
began
to
declare
the
same
as
followeth
.
YOu
shall
vnderstand
(
gentle
Knight
)
that
this
Ilande
was
called
in
times
past
,
the
Ilande
of
Artimaga
,
for
that
it
was
gouerned
by
a
woman
so
called
,
who
was
so
abhominable
and
euill
,
that
neuer
the
lyke
was
séene
nor
heard
of
amongst
women
,
for
that
after
she
came
vnto
the
age
of
fiftéene
yéeres
vntill
the
time
of
her
death
,
which
was
more
than
thirtie
yéeres
,
shée
neuer
beléeued
in
God
but
in
the
diuell
,
and
there
was
no
daie
that
passed
ouer
her
head
,
but
she
sawe
the
diuell
in
the
figure
of
a
man
,
and
had
talke
and
conuersation
with
her
,
as
though
he
had
bene
her
husband
,
and
she
did
euerie
daie
twice
humble
her selfe
vnto
him
and
did
worship
him
.
The
father
and
mother
of
this
Artimaga
were
verie
euill
and
peruerse
,
&
being
Lords
and
gouernours
of
this
Iland
at
their
death
,
they
left
this
Artimaga
of
the
age
of
ten
yéeres
,
little
more
or
lesse
,
and
for
that
there
was
no
heire
male
at
their
decease
,
she
was
forthwith
accepted
for
Ladie
and
gouernesse
of
the
whole
Iland
,
who
when
she
sawe
that
she
was
absolute
of
her selfe
,
and
all
in
her
disposition
,
she
gaue
her selfe
so
much
vnto
all
the
〈◊〉
and
vi●es
of
this
worlde
,
that
for
her
abhominable
sinnes
and
wickednesse
,
God
dyd
permit
that
when
this
Artimaga
came
vnto
the
age
of
fiftéene
yéeres
,
shée
was
deceiued
with
the
diuell
,
and
would
neuer
consent
vnto
marriage
,
for
that
shée
would
not
submit
her selfe
vnder
the
obedience
of
her
husband
,
but
yet
she
had
more
than
thirtie
gallants
at
her
commaundement
,
and
had
a
great
delight
to
chaunge
euerie
yéere
so
many
more
,
and
with
the
greate
conuersation
that
she
had
continuallie
with
the
diuell
,
she
came
to
bée
so
wise
and
cunning
in
the
art
Magicke
,
that
there
was
none
in
all
her
time
,
although
hée
were
neuer
so
cunning
,
that
might
bee
compared
vnto
her
.
Shée
vsed
so
many
and
diuerse
sortes
of
inchauntmentes
,
that
all
those
of
the
Iland
dyd
feare
her
verie
much
,
and
although
her
abhominable
and
horrible
li●e
séemed
verie
euill
vnto
them
all
,
yet
durst
they
doe
no
other
thing
,
but
to
obey
her
for
their
Ladie
and
gouernesse
.
It
so
fell
out
that
this
cursed
woman
was
neuer
brought
to
bedde
,
nor
neuer
was
with
childe
,
although
(
in
consideration
thereof
many
times
shée
woulde
not
for
the
space
of
two
or
thrée
moneths
together
vse
the
companie
but
onelie
of
one
man
,
for
the
which
shée
receiued
great
sorrowe
and
griefe
at
her
verye
heart
,
in
séeing
that
shée
coulde
not
haue
anie
issue
of
her
bodie
that
might
succéede
her
in
the
Lordshippe
of
that
Ilande
,
and
many
times
when
shée
was
in
companie
with
the
Diuell
,
shee
dyd
complayne
verie
much
thereof
,
praying
him
earnestlie
with
greate
deuotion
to
doe
so
much
for
her
,
that
she
might
haue
a
sonne
,
with
whom
she
might
comfort
her selfe
,
and
put
some
remedie
vnto
the
great
sorrowe
which
she
receiued
at
her
heart
,
for
lacke
thereof
.
Then
the
deceitfull
diuell
,
full
of
pollicie
,
&
enimie
vnto
all
humaine
generation
,
hauing
great
desire
to
bring
vnto
ende
that
euill
fortuned
woman
,
the
more
surer
to
make
his
pray
vpon
her
soule
,
bethought
himselfe
of
a
meruailous
eu●ll
,
and
sayde
,
that
vnto
that
time
he
would
not
consent
that
she
should
haue
any
generation
,
in
consideration
that
she
loued
him
so
wel
,
he
wold
not
that
she
should
conceiue
by
anie
humaine
creature
,
but
onelie
by
him
,
and
that
he
determined
to
lye
with
her
,
certifying
that
she
should
fullie
persuade
her selfe
that
the
sonne
that
should
be
borne
of
her
,
should
be
the
most
strongest
that
should
be
found
in
all
the
world
,
and
in
respect
of
her
loue
,
that
Iland
should
be
spoken
of
in
all
the
world
.
These
words
of
the
diuell
,
caused
so
great
ioye
and
pleasure
in
Artimaga
,
that
as
one
from
her selfe
she
fell
downe
prostrate
at
his
féete
and
kissed
them
,
for
that
great
benefit
offered
vnto
her
,
and
with
great
importuna●ie
she
desired
him
straight
way
to
put
it
in
vre
.
Then
the
diuell
hauing
no
other
determination
but
onely
to
deceiue
her
,
saide
:
thou
shalt
vnderstande
Artimaga
that
there
is
not
giuen
vnto
mée
so
much
power
,
for
to
know
thee
nor
no
humaine
woman
,
in
the
forme
of
a
rationall
man
,
but
in
some
other
figure
and
forme
of
a
wilde
beast
that
is
furious
and
wonderfull
,
the
which
is
onely
for
to
shew
the
difference
that
is
betwixt
our
great
power
,
and
that
of
men
.
And
againe
,
that
which
shal
be
begotten
by
mee
,
to
be
of
much
more
force
and
strength
.
When
that
Artimaga
heard
him
say
these
wordes
,
with
the
great
ioye
which
she
receiued
,
she
was
voide
of
all
care
,
and
saide
vnto
him
,
that
she
should
receiue
great
contentment
and
pleasure
therein
,
although
he
came
in
the
most
vgliest
and
fearefullest
forme
that
might
be
.
So
the
diuell
fell
at
agréement
with
her
,
that
vpon
a
certaine
day
she
should
goe
into
a
Parke
that
was
in
that
Ilande
,
being
full
of
meruailous
great
and
thicke
trées
,
(
whereas
she
did
manie
times
goe
a
hunting
)
and
that
he
would
there
tarrie
her
comming
.
Then
the
diuell
for
to
accomplish
and
bring
to
passe
that
which
he
had
promised
,
went
vnto
the
desarts
of
Affrica
,
&
out
from
the
most
highest
and
aspar
parts
of
all
the
mount
Atlas
,
he
brought
forth
a
monstrous
beast
called
Fauno
,
the
most
terriblest
amongst
all
beasts
,
and
they
saie
that
by
reason
of
the
great
abhomination
vsed
in
times
past
by
men
,
hauing
copulation
with
monstrous
beastes
,
did
so
alter
humane
nature
,
that
in
processe
of
time
it
concluded
in
this
so
terrible
and
monstrous
beast
,
the
fashion
and
forme
thereof
was
as
I
will
declare
vnto
you
:
His
bodie
was
as
bigge
as
a
great
bull
,
in
forme
and
shape
lyke
a
Lion
,
with
his
féete
full
of
rugged
haire
,
and
the
clawes
of
his
féete
as
bigge
as
twice
a
mans
finger
,
and
a
span
long
,
his
breast
as
big
as
of
a
horse
,
and
necked
like
an
Elephant
,
and
from
that
part
vpward
both
head
and
face
like
a
man
,
with
a
long
beard
of
hard
and
thicke
haire
,
but
the
head
was
verie
bigge
,
and
out
of
the
middest
of
his
forehead
came
forth
an
horne
as
big
as
a
mans
arme
and
as
long
,
whose
force
was
such
,
as
also
in
his
armes
,
that
there
was
no
beast
so
furious
and
fierce
,
that
was
able
to
indure
before
him
.
Almightie
God
shewed
great
fauour
vnto
mankinde
,
for
that
of
these
beastes
there
are
but
a
few
in
the
world
,
and
they
are
not
to
be
found
but
on
the
highest
parts
of
the
mount
Atlas
,
which
is
all
desert
and
no
inhabitation
,
for
if
they
were
whereas
●here
is
people
,
one
of
these
beasts
alone
were
sufficient
for
to
destroie
a
whole
kingdome
.
So
the
diuel
finding
out
this
monstrous
beast
,
he
entered
within
him
,
and
brought
him
vnto
this
Iland
,
and
tarried
within
the
Parke
till
the
comming
of
Artimaga
at
the
houre
appointed
,
who
with
the
greate
desire
that
she
had
to
conceiue
by
the
diuel
,
detracted
no
time
,
but
kept
her
houre
,
and
although
she
had
great
astonishment
at
the
fiercenesse
and
terrible
semblance
of
that
monster
,
yet
for
all
that
it
did
not
abate
her
courage
,
beléeuing
of
a
certaintie
that
it
was
the
diuell
,
and
for
that
the
diuell
was
within
the
monster
,
hée
spake
by
the
mouth
of
y●
Fauno
all
that
was
requisite
.
To
conclude
,
he
deceiued
Artimaga
,
and
by
the
permission
of
God
,
for
her
sinnes
and
abhominable
desire
,
she
was
conceiued
by
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
in
such
sort
,
that
she
remayned
with
child
.
Then
she
returned
againe
vnto
her
house
,
and
the
diuell
carried
the
monster
vnto
the
place
from
whence
he
brought
him
,
and
in
the
end
of
thrée
moneths
she
felt
her selfe
with
child
,
for
the
which
she
receiued
so
great
ioy
and
contentment
as
euer
she
did
in
all
her
life
,
beleeuing
of
a
certaintie
that
the
sonne
that
shoulde
be
borne
of
her
,
shoulde
bée
the
most
strongest
and
mightiest
in
all
the
world
,
and
neuer
ceased
giuing
thankes
vnto
the
diuell
,
for
that
he
was
the
author
and
father
thereof
.
But
in
consideration
that
his
originall
is
euill
,
and
hath
no
other
desire
nor
delight
but
to
deceiue
all
humane
generation
:
euen
so
all
his
workes
and
déedes
cannot
be
but
euill
,
and
in
great
daunger
&
preiudice
vnto
our
soules
.
So
the
time
was
expired
&
the
houre
come
that
Artimaga
should
be
deliuered
,
and
she
was
so
big
,
broade
,
and
swelled
,
that
she
could
not
moue
her selfe
from
one
place
vnto
another
,
in
such
sort
,
that
all
that
dyd
sée
her
were
greatlie
amazed
,
for
that
shée
séemed
to
be
foure
times
so
bigge
as
she
was
before
,
and
by
reason
that
the
fruit
of
her
cohabitation
was
deformed
,
monstrous
,
and
diuellish
,
they
had
no
hope
of
anie
naturall
birth
by
ordinarie
course
,
but
rent
and
tore
the
bellie
and
entrailes
of
the
mother
,
wherewith
shée
dyed
and
yéelded
her
soule
vnto
him
whom
shée
so
much
beléeued
and
worshipped
,
and
the
childe
came
forth
,
the
most
horriblest
and
terriblest
creature
that
euer
nature
formed
.
This
childe
was
scarce
out
of
his
mothers
wombe
,
when
that
with
a
diuellish
furie
he
tore
in
péeces
all
that
euer
were
before
him
,
and
ran
out
o●
the
doores
and
tooke
the
field
,
destroying
and
killing
all
that
euer
hée
met
withall
,
and
neuer
ceased
till
he
came
vnto
the
Parke
and
woode
wheras
he
was
begotten
,
and
there
he
remained
certaine
dayes
,
and
neuer
came
forth
till
hée
was
growen
to
a
bigger
stature
,
although
then
when
he
was
borne
,
he
was
as
bigge
as
reasonable
Lion
.
He
had
not
remained
full
halfe
a
yéere
in
these
woodes
,
but
he
increased
so
much
,
that
he
séemed
to
be
as
bigge
as
an
Elephant
,
his
forme
and
figure
was
much
more
horrible
than
that
of
his
father
,
although
he
did
resemble
him
verie
much
,
and
besides
all
this
,
he
had
a
whole
legion
of
diuels
within
his
bodie
,
who
in
a
figure
of
armed
men
,
many
times
came
forth
at
his
horrible
mouth
,
and
did
great
harme
whereas
they
went
,
so
that
for
this
occasion
he
is
called
the
diuellish
or
possessed
Fauno
.
So
afterward
when
that
he
was
come
vnto
his
full
strength
,
which
was
within
halfe
a
yéere
,
he
left
the
woods
,
&
went
throughout
all
the
Iland
,
&
did
so
much
harme
,
that
he
left
none
aliue
where
he
became
,
some
slaine
,
and
other
some
hearing
the
report
of
his
crueltie
,
fled
awaie
,
so
that
the
Iland
is
lefte
desolate
,
and
no
inhabitants
therin
,
neither
anie
other
liuing
thing
.
So
all
those
that
haue
anie
notice
of
this
Iland
,
doe
not
onelie
refuse
to
land
vppon
it
,
but
also
they
dare
not
come
nigh
it
with
their
ships
,
for
that
many
times
this
possessed
Fauno
hath
ben
séene
enter
into
the
sea
a
great
stones
cast
,
when
that
anie
ship
or
barke
were
nigh
the
shore
,
and
if
that
by
misfortune
those
vnhappie
trauailers
doe
fall
into
his
hands
,
there
is
none
that
escapeth
with
their
lius
,
for
that
with
the
horne
that
he
hath
in
his
forehead
,
at
one
only
blow
he
teareth
a
ship
in
péeces
,
then
after
with
his
strong
armes
and
vnmercifull
téeth
he
rents
&
teares
in
péeces
all
that
is
before
him
,
and
there
is
no
strength
of
man
,
nor
armour
so
strong
,
that
can
withstand
his
●urie
,
for
that
his
hoarie
skin
is
of
so
great
hardnes
,
that
it
is
not
possible
for
anie
weapon
to
enter
it
.
This
is
the
occasion
(
gentle
knight
)
that
this
Iland
is
so
much
spoken
of
,
and
so
feareful
vnto
all
sailers
that
passeth
this
waie
,
and
why
it
is
called
the
Iland
of
the
diuell
,
and
that
fire
which
we
doe
sée
,
with
that
thicke
smoake
that
ascendeth
into
the
aire
,
is
all
that
which
procéedeth
out
of
the
terrible
and
horrible
mouth
of
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
for
that
it
is
full
of
infernall
diuells
.
By
this
you
may
iudge
what
the
monster
should
be
,
that
throweth
from
him
such
wonderfull
and
terrible
infections
.
This
worthie
knight
of
the
Sun
at
this
discourse
of
the
olde
Pilot
was
greatly
amazed
,
and
so
were
all
the
knights
of
Candia
that
came
in
the
same
ship
,
the
which
thing
seemed
vnto
them
to
be
one
of
the
straungest
that
euer
happened
in
all
the
world
,
yet
the
straungenesse
thereof
was
not
so
terrible
vnto
all
the
rest
of
the
hearers
,
as
it
gaue
great
desire
vnto
the
valiant
&
worthie
knight
of
the
Sun
to
go
a
land
at
that
Iland
,
and
to
goe
and
seeke
out
that
possessed
Fauno
,
for
that
the
hearing
thereof
did
not
cause
anie
feare
or
dread
in
his
couragious
heart
,
as
he
who
for
such
like
attempts
(
aboue
all
other
stout
knights
)
was
created
,
&
did
litle
estéeme
the
venturing
of
his
life
,
whereas
the
honour
and
glorie
of
such
worthinesse
is
put
in
aduenture
,
and
in
especiall
in
that
time
abhorring
himselfe
in
consideration
of
his
fact
,
he
was
so
furious
and
desperate
,
that
he
neither
feared
nor
dreaded
the
entrie
into
hell
,
much
lesse
the
Iland
.
Thus
he
béeing
fullie
determined
to
goe
a
land
,
called
vnto
him
Aurelio
and
Biniano
his
squires
,
and
calling
them
apart
,
in
shedding
many
salt
teares
which
ranne
down
his
graue
countenance
,
he
sayd
these
wordes
.
My
good
friends
,
God
doth
know
what
great
griefe
it
is
vnto
me
for
to
declare
this
which
I
haue
to
saie
,
and
what
sorrow
I
doe
féele
at
my
heart
before
I
doe
vtter
it
,
not
so
much
for
that
it
doth
touch
me
(
although
my
misfortune
aboue
al
other
in
the
world
is
most
strangest
)
as
it
is
for
that
I
doe
sée
,
at
such
time
as
I
should
doe
some
thing
for
you
,
&
to
giue
you
reward
for
your
great
good
seruice
done
vnto
me
,
I
am
constrained
to
abandon
and
leaue
you
alone
,
without
any
hope
euer
to
sée
you
more
,
this
is
the
thing
that
doth
so
grieue
me
,
ioyntlie
to
consider
how
my
losse
will
bée
lamented
of
my
father
and
mother
,
my
brother
,
and
all
my
friends
,
that
to
declare
it
my
tongue
doth
faile
mee
.
Ah
my
good
friends
,
you
shall
vnderstand
that
my
departure
out
of
Constantinople
was
for
no
other
intent
but
for
to
leaue
the
worlde
,
and
for
to
goe
whereas
I
might
shorten
my
daies
,
and
thether
whereas
it
might
not
bée
knowen
vnto
anie
whether
I
be
aliue
or
dead
,
for
that
my
euill
fortune
is
such
,
that
it
doeth
not
atcomplish
mée
for
to
liue
anie
longer
héere
amongest
men
,
and
in
consideration
heereof
(
I
dyd
at
our
departure
)
so
much
request
you
that
you
should
haue
remained
with
the
Emperour
my
Father
,
for
that
he
and
my
brother
Rosicleer
might
reward
you
for
the
great
seruice
done
vnto
me
,
for
that
I
am
not
able
to
doe
it
,
and
being
at
that
time
so
much
importuned
by
you
,
that
by
anie
meanes
I
could
not
leaue
your
companie
,
but
now
the
time
is
come
that
my
sorrowfull
destinie
hath
permitted
,
that
from
this
daie
forwardes
I
am
constrained
to
leaue
you
,
and
to
make
reckoning
that
of
you
nor
of
my
father
and
brother
I
was
neuer
knowen
.
The
occasion
therof
I
will
not
declare
vnto
you
,
for
that
alonelie
my
hart
(
who
doth
suffer
the
inconuenience
)
shal
know
it
.
But
thus
much
I
will
saie
vnto
you
,
that
if
the
perill
in
loosing
of
my
soule
did
not
disturbe
me
,
I
haue
sufficient
cause
to
giue
my selfe
a
thousand
deaths
with
my
owne
handes
,
and
for
that
my
life
is
so
heauie
and
grieuous
vnto
mée
,
and
that
my
force
&
strength
is
not
sufficient
for
to
suffer
the
same
,
I
am
determined
for
to
go
a
land
on
this
Iland
of
y●
Fauno
,
and
there
to
end
my
vnhappie
daies
,
and
if
it
so
fall
out
,
fortune
to
be
fauourable
vnto
me
,
in
that
I
do
ouercome
and
kil
the
monster
,
I
shall
doe
great
seruice
vnto
God
,
in
taking
out
of
the
world
a
thing
so
fierce
and
abhominable
,
then
afterwarde
shall
that
Iland
be
verie
solitarie
and
fit
for
my
purpose
,
where
I
meane
to
end
my
sorrowfull
daies
.
And
if
my
fortune
be
such
that
I
die
in
the
power
of
the
Fauno
,
(
as
sure
I
am
that
I
owe
a
death
)
then
shall
I
there
paie
the
death
that
is
due
vnto
this
my
mortall
bodie
,
and
the
debt
that
is
due
vnto
this
vnhappie
and
troublesome
world
.
Therefore
my
good
friends
,
I
doe
most
heartelie
desire
you
,
for
the
great
good
loue
which
you
dyd
alwaies
beare
vnto
me
,
that
at
this
present
you
will
shew
it
to
be
more
than
héeretofore
,
and
to
be
conformable
vnto
my
will
,
and
to
thinke
well
of
this
my
pretence
,
and
to
haue
patience
,
and
perswade
with
your selues
in
this
my
departure
,
and
to
comfort
your selues
in
that
it
is
a
great
griefe
vnto
me
for
to
leaue
you
,
and
to
conclude
,
the
lyfe
of
man
is
briefe
and
short
,
and
full
of
miserie
and
anguish
,
and
I
praie
and
beséech
the
vniuersall
creator
,
that
we
may
in
the
other
world
with
more
ioy
,
quietquietnesse
,
and
pleasure
.
So
my
will
is
,
that
after
I
am
departed
,
you
go
with
these
knights
vnto
Transiluania
,
and
from
thence
to
returne
into
Grecia
,
and
there
to
establysh
your selues
with
the
Emperour
my
father
,
without
giuing
him
to
vnderstand
of
anie
thing
that
hath
happened
vnto
me
,
since
my
departure
out
of
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
but
saie
that
you
lost
me
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
and
remaine
with
him
,
for
that
I
am
sure
that
hée
and
my
brother
Rosicleer
will
doe
as
much
for
you
,
as
though
I
were
there
my selfe
:
and
if
at
anie
time
by
fortune
you
doe
méete
with
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
you
shall
saye
vnto
her
,
that
at
such
time
as
I
departed
from
you
,
I
left
your
companie
,
for
that
I
went
out
of
the
worlde
,
because
that
in
liuing
I
shoulde
not
bée
odious
vnto
her
,
nor
cause
her
anie
more
anger
,
and
of
one
thing
she
shall
bée
sure
,
that
so
long
as
shée
liueth
,
shée
shall
neuer
haue
anie
newes
of
mée
.
When
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
sayd
these
wordes
,
these
two
his
good
Squires
did
weepe
so
bitterlie
,
that
they
had
no
power
to
speak
in
a
good
space
,
in
the
end
they
caught
him
by
the
armour
,
and
held
him
fast
,
saying
:
Oh
our
good
Lord
,
wherefore
is
it
you
pleasure
for
to
leaue
vs
in
so
great
sorrow
and
care
,
and
to
cause
your
father
and
mother
,
brethren
,
and
friendes
,
alwaies
to
liue
in
great
heauinesse
and
griefe
.
What
great
griefe
is
this
that
you
haue
conceiued
,
which
is
the
occasion
that
you
doe
desire
the
death
?
What
greater
euill
may
happen
vnto
the
world
,
than
to
haue
the
lacke
,
&
sustaine
the
losse
of
such
a
knight
as
thou
art
?
Consider
our
good
Lord
,
that
if
you
doe
performe
this
which
you
saie
you
will
,
you
doe
not
alonelie
loose
your
life
,
but
also
your
soule
,
for
in
conclusion
,
it
is
a
desperate
death
.
For
the
loue
of
God
(
our
good
Lord
)
let
not
such
things
passe
once
into
your
thought
,
for
that
no
man
in
all
the
world
can
imagine
a
thing
of
a
worser
determination
,
and
héerein
you
shall
also
loose
both
bodie
and
soule
,
and
shall
be
the
occasion
of
the
death
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
your
father
,
and
of
the
Empresse
Briana
your
mother
,
for
as
they
doe
loue
you
more
than
themselues
,
they
will
die
with
verie
anger
and
griefe
,
when
they
shall
heare
of
your
perdition
,
&
vnto
none
it
wil
be
so
griouous
as
vnto
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
who
is
the
occasion
of
all
this
your
sorrow
.
What
shall
we
doe
(
vnhappie
as
we
are
)
when
that
wée
shall
finde
our selues
all
alone
without
your
companie
?
How
can
we
returne
vnto
Grecia
,
when
that
the
subiects
doth
lacke
their
so
great●
estéemed
Prince
?
With
what
semblance
or
countenance
can
we
come
in
the
presence
of
your
Father
,
not
daring
to
declare
the
losse
and
death
of
his
sonne
?
Ought
not
we
greatlie
to
be
sorrowfull
to
thinke
how
our
hearts
must
be
hardned
,
that
when
your
brother
and
friends
shall
demaund
of
newes
of
you
,
and
we
knowing
the
conclusion
,
dare
not
be
so
hardie
as
to
vtter
it
?
What
is
he
that
can
suffer
so
great
griefe
,
or
dissemble
so
great
sorrow
?
God
forbid
that
euer
anie
such
thing
shoulde
bée
permitted
,
wée
will
first
consent
to
bée
drowned
in
this
déep
sea
,
than
to
returne
into
Grecia
without
your
companie
.
And
if
you
doe
still
contend
to
goe
a
land
on
that
Iland
of
the
diuellish
Fauno
,
we
will
goe
with
you
and
beare
you
companie
,
for
that
wée
shall
thinke
our
deaths
happie
to
loose
them
with
yours
,
and
had
rather
ioyntly
to
die
with
you
,
than
to
liue
one
moment
in
this
worlde
for
to
lament
and
feele
the
griefe
of
your
death
.
These
and
many
other
thinges
in
effect
,
sayd
these
good
Squires
,
shedding
many
salt
teares
for
to
withdrawe
their
Lord
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
from
his
determination
,
but
all
did
profit
nothing
(
for
although
it
was
great
anguish
and
mortall
griefe
vnto
him
for
to
depart
from
them
)
yet
was
he
so
firme
in
his
determination
to
accomplish
that
which
he
had
said
,
that
if
all
the
whole
world
had
bene
there
present
for
to
disswade
him
,
yet
had
they
not
ben
sufficient
for
to
withdrawe
him
from
the
doing
thereof
.
And
therewithall
he
requested
the
Mariners
to
launch
out
their
skiffe
on
the
water
.
But
when
the
Mariners
and
all
those
knightes
of
Candia
did
vnderstand
his
determination
,
and
sawe
how
pitti●ullie
his
Squires
did
wéepe
for
him
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
thereat
,
and
thought
him
to
be
a
desperate
knight
,
and
one
that
was
wearie
of
his
life
,
that
wold
giue
attempt
to
so
strange
aduenture
,
hauing
heard
the
wonderfull
thing
that
the
olde
Pilot
had
tolde
them
of
that
Iland
,
who
beeing
there
present
,
&
saw
with
what
determination
,
he
wold
goe
vnto
the
Iland
,
and
with
what
efficacie
he
dyd
demand
the
skiffe
for
to
goe
a
land
,
before
them
all
hée
sayde
these
wordes
.
I
greatlie
meruaile
at
you
(
Sir
knight
)
hauing
heard
the
wonderfull
things
that
I
haue
tolde
vnto
you
of
this
Iland
of
the
diuell
,
and
yet
you
haue
so
great
will
to
go
thether
,
of
truth
I
cannot
iudge
that
it
doth
procéede
of
anie
strength
or
couragious
heart
,
but
of
some
desperation
that
you
haue
with
you
,
whereby
you
doe
abhorre
your
owne
life
,
for
that
stout
and
couragious
Barons
doe
neuer
put
their
liues
in
aduenture
,
but
whereas
they
haue
hope
to
get
honour
and
victorie
,
but
that
man
which
doth
put
himselfe
there
wheras
he
doth
aduenture
no
other
honour
,
but
to
die
the
death
,
it
may
be
wel
said
that
it
is
more
of
desperation
,
than
of
force
or
courage
.
What
account
doe
you
make
of
your
owne
strength
?
I
saie
,
if
it
be
equall
with
that
of
Hercules
,
&
that
of
Thebano
,
yet
were
it
not
sufficient
to
escape
from
the
hands
of
that
possessed
Fauno
,
if
once
you
goe
a
land
,
and
it
is
well
knowen
that
all
the
people
of
the
Iland
coulde
not
make
anie
defence
against
him
,
although
there
were
amongst
them
more
than
thrée
thousand
knights
,
besides
other
common
people
verie
stout
and
clubbish
,
and
yet
will
you
take
vpon
you
alone
the
enterprise
,
surelie
it
is
a
plaine
thing
to
vnderstand
,
that
you
will
kill
your selfe
,
for
that
you
will
put
your selfe
in
that
aduenture
,
whereas
it
is
impossible
to
saue
your
life
,
the
which
is
a
thing
most
abhorred
before
God
,
and
this
proceedeth
onelie
of
the
lacke
of
wisedome
,
weaknesse
,
and
want
of
patience
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
each
one
where
wisedome
remaineth
with
equal
hart
and
valiant
courage
doth
suffer
all
humane
troubles
,
&
not
for
euerie
little
trouble
,
doth
straight
waies
abhorre
themselues
,
and
so
from
a
little
euill
fall
into
another
far
greater
.
What
other
thing
haue
you
in
al
this
world
that
maketh
a
man
more
to
abhore
and
hate
himselfe
and
his
owne
life
than
afflictions
and
troubles
?
And
it
is
manifest
vnto
vs
,
as
it
is
spoken
by
the
wise
,
that
troubles
appertaineth
onelie
vnto
men
.
Likewise
that
holie
and
afflicted
Iob
saith
,
that
for
trauailes
and
troubles
man
was
borne
,
but
those
which
haue
no
patience
nor
strength
for
to
suffer
aduersities
,
thinketh
(
that
al
things
that
doth
not
fal
out
according
vnto
their
desire
and
appetite
)
that
they
haue
iust
occasion
to
desire
and
procure
the
death
,
and
vpon
the
sodaine
they
are
in
such
a
rage
,
that
for
euerie
light
thing
they
doe
not
onelie
anger
themselues
against
fortune
,
but
also
against
themselues
,
and
that
which
is
worst
of
all
,
they
are
out
of
patience
with
God
that
dyd
create
them
,
vsing
against
him
wordes
of
greate
abhomination
,
as
though
that
if
God
did
not
all
things
vnto
their
willes
,
then
doth
he
them
great
iniurie
,
but
vnto
them
that
bée
wise
,
what
state
so
euer
God
doth
send
them
,
they
accept
it
in
good
part
,
if
it
bée
with
prosperitie
and
ioy
they
accept
it
with
a
good
will
,
and
if
it
bée
sadde
and
sorrowfull
,
they
suffer
it
with
suffer
it
with
patience
,
and
when
that
with
the
occasions
they
cannot
bée
merrie
,
then
doe
they
comfort
themselues
with
patience
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
so
comfortable
and
pleasant
as
is
patience
:
therewith
heauie
and
sorrowfull
heartes
are
made
glad
and
ioyfull
,
wronges
are
brought
to
perfection
,
it
mollifieth
hard
hearts
,
&
do
mitigate
difficultnesse
,
aspar
things
it
maketh
plaine
,
and
ceaseth
all
quarrels
and
sodaine
motions
,
and
finallie
there
is
nothing
of
more
quietnes
and
comfort
than
is
the
life
of
the
patient
.
These
wéepinges
,
these
complaintes
,
these
clowdes
and
stormes
,
that
causeth
the
weake
barke
of
our
humane
lyfe
to
bée
dashed
and
broken
in
péeces
against
the
rockes
,
procéedeth
of
no
other
thing
but
of
the
follie
and
impatience
of
men
.
So
that
(
gentle
Knight
)
if
you
dyd
suffer
with
patience
the
troubles
and
afflictions
of
this
life
(
considering
that
in
the
end
there
cannot
bée
found
a
thing
more
common
amongst
men
)
then
shoulde
no
peruerse
fortune
,
although
it
dyd
neuer
so
stronglie
assault
you
,
bée
able
to
cause
you
to
be
wearie
&
abhorre
your
owne
life
,
neyther
to
goe
and
put
your selfe
into
the
handes
of
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
whereas
you
doe
aduenture
no
other
thing
but
martirdome
to
your
bodie
,
and
perpetual
condemnation
to
your
soule
.
Let
the
Lord
dispose
of
thy
bodie
according
vnto
his
will
,
séeing
he
made
it
,
there
is
no
reason
to
the
contrarie
,
doe
not
procure
to
destroie
the
Castle
,
whereas
thou
laied●●
neither
stone
nor
timber
,
and
no
other
thing
is
thine
but
onelie
the
compassion
?
Doe
not
abridge
God
of
that
work
,
whereas
he
did
not
onelie
create
the
flesh
,
but
also
bones
,
bloud
,
and
spirit
.
And
it
séemeth
vnto
me
(
as
it
is
most
true
)
that
there
is
no
other
Lord
ouer
celestiall
and
terrestriall
things
,
but
he
that
made
all
things
?
Well
then
,
séeing
that
of
our selues
we
are
nothing
,
but
all
is
of
God
,
and
commeth
from
him
,
wherfore
doe
we
humane
creatures
thinke
that
we
may
liberallie
we
all
things
vnto
our
〈◊〉
?
Curteous
Knight
,
if
you
haue
anie
sorrowe
and
griefe
,
possible
God
doth
it
to
proue
you
,
the
which
although
it
bée
now
troublesome
vnto
you
,
may
yet
so
fall
out
,
that
another
time
it
will
bée
profitable
,
and
if
it
bee
intollerable
,
it
cannot
endure
long
,
tarrie
the
voice
of
the
Lord
,
for
that
hée
will
call
you
,
and
make
no
aunswere
before
hée
call
you
,
for
that
it
is
determined
not
onelie
the
daie
but
the
houre
of
thy
end
,
the
which
thou
oughtest
not
to
abreuiate
and
cut
off
,
for
that
thou
art
not
able
to
dilate
it
,
for
it
is
impossible
.
There
hath
béene
some
that
hath
taken
it
before
their
time
,
thinking
thereby
to
eschue
a
little
briefe
and
momentarie
trouble
,
and
drowned
themselues
in
that
which
neuer
shall
haue
end
.
A
mightie
King
or
Lorde
leaueth
in
a
Castle
or
fortresse
a
lieuetenant
to
garde
and
kéepe
the
same
,
who
thinketh
that
hée
doth
commit
great
treason
to
depart
from
thence
without
lisence
of
his
Lorde
.
Why
then
shall
wée
not
thinke
that
the
treason
is
farre
greater
that
the
soule
doth
against
the
king
of
heauen
,
for
to
depart
from
the
bodie
,
whereas
he
put
it
to
be
his
liefetenant
and
gard
.
We
reade
that
there
was
neuer
wise
man
that
did
so
euil
a
fact
,
as
dyd
Cato
in
killing
of
himselfe
,
for
that
hée
woulde
not
looke
Caesa●
in
the
face
.
Let
not
so
much
bée
spoken
of
you
(
gentle
knight
)
it
will
séeme
much
worse
,
because
you
are
a
Christian
,
and
it
〈◊〉
thing
prohibited
and
forbidden
by
God
,
wheras
he
saith
.
Thou
shalt
not
kill
.
Why
should
wée
then
kill
our selues
?
Likewise
hée
doth
bidde
vs
loue
our
neighbours
as
our
ow●e
selues
.
Therefore
haue
a
good
confidence
and
trust
in
all
●●●ng
,
for
that
it
is
not
the
part
of
a
〈…〉
,
but
to
beare
a
good
〈◊〉
vnto
the
double
face
of
〈◊〉
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
a
womans
heart
that
doth
yéelde
for
feare
.
Therefore
touching
this
matter
(
gentle
knight
)
I
wil
saie
no
more
,
for
that
vnto
them
that
hath
a
better
vnderstanding
than
I
haue
,
I
haue
sayd
nothing
but
to
put
in
remembrance
.
Likewise
it
is
néedfull
,
for
that
if
you
haue
your
witt●s
occupied
in
passions
,
the
same
doth
blinde
the
vnderstanding
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
you
cannot
discerne
thinges
at
hand
.
With
this
the
olde
Pilot
concluded
his
talke
,
and
although
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
at
that
time
was
in
better
plight
to
●ight
against
fiftie
knightes
,
than
to
take
counsaile
of
one
man
,
yet
for
all
that
he
dyd
conceiue
well
of
the
wordes
of
the
Patrone
,
as
of
him
that
was
indued
with
no
lesse
wisedome
and
vnderstanding
,
than
with
force
and
strength
,
and
for
that
his
determination
was
so
firme
to
accomplish
his
desire
,
and
againe
the
knightes
that
were
there
present
,
as
also
the
Pilot
shoulde
not
iudge
him
to
be
an
imp●tient
man
and
one
of
●●●all
discretion
,
hée
said
these
words
following
.
If
so
bée
that
the
life
of
man
might
bée
perpetuall
and
indure
for
euer
,
as
immortall
,
and
the
soule
to
die
,
then
with
great
reason
ought
we
to
cherish
and
make
much
of
our
bodies
and
●●ie
from
all
such
perills
as
might
giue
an
occasion
vnto
death
,
for
that
hée
that
should
so
die
,
might
certain●●●
account
himselfe
vnhappie
,
for
wheras
before
hée
was
some
thing
,
he
should
be
conuerted
into
nothing
.
But
as
it
is
a
thing
naturall
to
be
borne
and
to
die
(
as
wise
men
saith
)
that
the
entering
into
the
worlde
with
life
,
is
the
beginning
of
death
,
and
the
same
life
is
the
path
waie
therevnto
,
and
wée
ought
to
feare
death
more
than
to
be
borne
,
and
we
ought
to
flie
from
the
death
,
yet
both
of
them
maketh
nature
perfect
,
and
nothing
of
necessitie
doeth
accompanie
Nature
which
ought
to
be
feared
,
and
he
that
doth
abhorre
and
fea●●
things
naturall
,
it
followeth
that
he
should
likewise
fear●
&
abhorre
nature
,
which
was
the
occasion
of
life
&
to
be
borne
,
(
sauing
if
you
thinke
that
in
part
you
ought
to
praise
,
and
in
part
to
despise
and
abhorre
)
but
all
men
of
small
discretion
doe
feare
death
,
and
I
doe
not
meruaile
thereat
,
for
that
all
their
felicities
is
in
their
bodies
,
the
which
without
al
doubt
doth
end
with
death
,
and
with
great
reason
they
doe
fear●
that
,
which
they
esteeme
as
their
chiefe
delight
,
for
that
humane
nature
is
such
,
that
it
wil
not
refuse
nor
lacke
their
felicitie
:
but
that
Baron
which
is
wise
&
couragious
,
&
●●●●●meth
of
his
bodie

no
more
th●n
of

all

but
as
one
that
in
the
morning
departeth
from
an
heauie
&
combersome
lodging
where
he
remained
all

is
not
to

and
if

procéedeth
of

yet
it
is
more
foolishnesse
for
to

the
thing

which
he
cannot
obtain

to
put
from
him
that

)
but
because
they
hope
the
time
will
bée
long
,
séeming
to
be
farre
of
,
that
which
one
waie
by
the
briefnesse
of
life
,
and
swiftnesse
of
time
,
and
another
waie
by
the

of

by
the

Death
vnto
a
young
man
should
neuer
seeme
grieuous
,
although
he
made
reckoning
of
no
other
goodnesse
,
for
abiding
the
time
of
auncient
yéeres
,
there
procéedeth
thereof
nothing
but
sadnesse
and
miseries
.
The
young
man
doth
well-knowe
what
he
hath
passed
in
his
time
,
but
yet
he
knoweth
not
what
he
shall
passe
if
that
he
endure
long
.
In
this
cruell
and
inconstant
kingdome
of
Fortune
,
hée
that
first
dyeth
,
doeth
deceiue
and
mocke
his
fellowe
.
You
will
now
saie
vnto
me
,
that
séeing
that
death
is
necessarie
and
of
force
,
it
were
better
to
abide
the
time
of
naturall
death
,
than
to
goe
and
receiue
it
of
that
diuellish
Fauno
.
Then
you
might
well
saie
,
if
that
I
were
certaine
thereof
,
that
the
death
that
I
shoulde
die
,
shoulde
bée
more
happie
than
fortunate
,
but
whosoeuer
doth
knowe
it
,
for
that
many
a
one
haue
hoped
to
die
in
their
beddes
,
when
that
afterward
they
were
hanged
,
and
some
throwne
from
the
toppe
of
a
mountaine
,
some
torne
with
Lions
,
and
some
eaten
with
wilde
Bores
;
yea
,
that
Euripides
,
the
light
of
al
great
pollicy
▪
next
vnto
Homer
,
was
cruellie
●●rne
in
péeces
with
dogges
.
Likewise
Lu●recio
Prince
of
Poets
,
by
drinkes
that
were
giuen
him
by
his
concubine
,
did
raue
in
such
sort
,
that
he
thought
it
the
best
remedie
to
kill
himselfe
with
a
knife
:
with
what
great
good
will
would
the
Emperour
Adriano
suffered
himselfe
to
haue
bene
torne
in
péeces
of
a
furious
Lion
,
if
his
people
would
haue
suffered
him
,
rather
then
haue
abidden
that
terrible
sicknesse
whereof
he
dyed
.
Many
other
mo
as
is
well
knowen
,
did
hope
to
die
of
their
naturall
deathes
,
and
yet
in
the
ende
they
died
of
verie
desperate
and
cruell
deathes
,
and
possible
before
they
eschewed
farre
worse
.
And
you
who
doth
giue
counsell
for
to
flie
from
death
,
I
would
you
would
tell
mée
how
farre
you
are
from
it
your selfe
,
of
trueth
if
you
doe
consider
verie
well
,
you
shall
finde
that
there
is
but
a
thin
borde
betwixt
you
and
death
:
and
not
yet
two
daies
past
when
that
you
thought
the
houre
was
come
.
Oh
false
and
folish
world
of
men
,
that
flyeth
with
great
diligence
from
one
little
perill
on
the
land
,
(
in
resisting
wherof
,
there
is
no
honour
to
be
gotten
)
&
yet
putteth
not
doubt
to
put
themselues
vnto
these
déepe
seas
,
wheras
their
liues
is
at
the
courtesie
of
the
windes
to
ouerthrow
them
,
and
of
the
terrible
waues
to
drowne
them
,
they
flie
from
one
follie
on
the
land
,
and
putteth
their
liues
in
foure
farre
worse
vppon
the
seas
,
in
a
shippe
that
is
alwaies
mouing
,
the
mariners
neuer
in
one
accord
,
the
water
that
neuer
standeth
still
,
and
the
winde
that
neuer
resteth
.
What
Dragon
or
furie
is
vpon
the
land
that
doth
feare
vs
more
then
vpon
the
●ea
,
whereas
it
is
well
knowen
an
innumerable
sort
of
men
hath
bene
drowned
.
There
is
no
furie
nor
wilde
beast
vpon
the
lande
,
but
that
it
is
possible
by
the
force
and
strength
of
man
,
to
make
defence
and
resistance
:
but
vpon
the
sea
,
if
you
ioyne
together
all
the
strengthes
of
the
most
valiantest
men
in
all
the
worlde
,
yet
are
they
not
able
to
make
any
resistance
against
one
storme
or
tempest
,
but
if
they
please
they
may
make
thrusts
with
their
speares
into
the
water
,
and
strike
with
their
swordes
against
the
windes
.
And
now
séeing
that
ther
is
all
these
perills
on
the
sea
,
wherefore
my
good
friend
,
doe
you
not
take
the
counsel
for
your selfe
,
the
which
you
doe
giue
vnto
mée
?
What
doe
you
thinke
that
it
is
not
more
possible
for
mée
for
to
ouercome
the
diuelish
Eauno
,
then
you
to
haue
the
victorie
of
two
so
terrible
Elements
,
as
is
the
water
and
winde
.
Finallie
,
to
conclude
,
when
that
man
thinketh
himselfe
most
farthest
from
death
,
it
is
then
nighest
at
hande
:
therefore
barons
that
be
stout
and
couragious
,
in
nothing
they
should
feare
the
death
,
wheras
they
doe
venter
themselues
to
get
honor
,
and
not
to
apart
themselues
from
perills
and
dangers
,
for
that
they
be
alwaies
readie
at
hand
,
and
in
the
ende
when
that
it
shal
please
God
that
they
shal
die
,
it
is
no
other
thing
but
a
cléering
of
the
soule
out
of
this
miserable
captiuitie●
&
prison
,
and
to
leaue
this
troublesome
&
wearie
world
,
where
in
I
doe
sée
that
there
is
no
pleasure
,
without
sodaine

no

no

no

all

all

all

I
sée
none

I

nothing

I
sée
all
in

besides
all

the

contencions
that
is
amongst

for
that
we
haue
the

What

there
is
that
doth
put

full

and
whether
so
euer

〈◊〉
,
I
will
say
no
more
vnto
you
,
but
that
I
am
determined
to
goe
a
land
on
the
Iland
of
the
Fauno
,
●or
I
had
rather
die
wheras
I
doe
aduenture
to
get
honor
,
(
making
my
defence
with
my
sword
in
my
hand
like
a
knight
)
then
to
be
drowned
in
the
Sea
,
or
to
kéepe
my
bed
with
sicknesse
:
therefore
my
good
friends
I
doe
desire
you
to
hoyse
out
your
bote
on
the

,
and
procure
no
further
to
disturbe
mée
in
this
my

for
that
I
will
not

to
accomplish
this
my
desire
,
●or
any
thing
that
is
in
all
the
world
,
and
these
my
squires
I
pray
you
to
carrie
them
with
you
,
and
not
to
let
them
to
folow
mée
,
neither
to
giue
them
any
ship
or
bote
,
for
that
their
deathes
shal
be
vnto
mée
much
more
greuous
then
mine
owne
.
Uerie
autentiue
were
all
the
knights
of
Candia
,
and
the
olde
pilot
,
vnto
all
that
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
said
,
by
the
which
they
iudged
him
to
be
discreete
&
wise
,
&
by
the
vttering
of
his
words
as
also
in
his
semblance
,
they
iudged
him
to
be
valiant
,
wherein
he
shewed
so
great
grauitie
of
his
person
,
that
ther
was
not
one
amongst
them
all
that
durst
speak
any
more
vnto
him
in
the
matter
,
neither
to
disturbe
him
of
his
will
&
determined
purpose
,
for
that
ther
was
not
any
that
could
say
any
thing
vnto
him
,
but
that
he
vnderstode
it
better
th●n
they
:
yet
they
s●●ing
the
perill
he
put
himselfe
in
,
they
all
greued
verie
much
thereat
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
with
their
wéepings
they
co●ld
scare
speake
,
but
in
especiall
his
two
Squires
,
who
hauing
heard
all
his
speache
,
and
sawe
the
resolute
determination
of
theyr
Lord
,
did
beate
their
heads
against
the
shippes
sides
,
and
gaue
such
shrickes
and
cries
,
as
though
they
had
bene
cut
of
their
wits
,
and
although
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
comfort
them
,
with
many
swéete
&
louing
words
,
yet
all
would
not
serue
,
for
the
more
he
spake
vnto
them
,
the
more
did
increase
their
sorow
and
griefe
.
Then
he
séeing
that
all
which
he
did
,
did
little
profit
to
goe
with
their
good
wills
,
&
how
that
the
longer
he
staied
,
the
worse
it
was
,
he
desired
the
mariners
to
hoise
the
boate
into
the
sea
,
who
were
not
willing
therevnto
,
the
which
being
by
him
perceiued
,
as
one
which
had
as
great
forc●
&
strength
as
anie
man
in
all
the
world
,
he
tooke
the
boate
in
both
his
hands
,
and
without
the
helpe
of
anie
other
,
he
hoised
it
into
the
sea
,
and
caused
his
horse
to
be
put
therein
,
the
which
being
done
,
he
would
haue
taken
his
leaue
of
them
all
,
but
his
squires
when
they
saw
that
he
would
depart
,
they
gaue
such
shrickes
and
cries
,
that
it
séemed
the
noyse
to
reach
vnto
the
heauens
,
and
fell
downe
at
his
féete
,
shedding
so
manie
teares
,
that
it
was
great
compassion
to
behold
them
,
desiring
him
that
he
would
not
leaue
them
in
so
great
heauinesse
,
and
for
that
it
was
so
manifest
that
he
went
to
loose
his
life
,
that
he
would
take
them
in
his
companie
,
for
to
dye
with
him
,
for
that
his
life
was
no
longer
then
he
abode
in
their
companie
.
They
complained
verie
much
of
him
,
for
paying
them
with
such
reward
,
after
so
long
time
,
that
they
had
serued
him
:
but
the
griefe
of
this
good
knight
was
such
,
for
his
two
squires
,
that
with
the
great
aboundance
of
teares
that
fell
from
his
eyes
,
he
could
scant
speake
vnto
them
one
worde
:
especiallie
,
considering
with
what
intencion
he
departed
,
which
was
neuer
to
sée
them
againe
in
all
his
life
,
neither
returne
anie
more
into
Grecia
,
for
that
he
was
determined
if
God
did
giue
him
victorie
against
the
Fauno
,
to
remaine
in
that
solitarie
Ilande
,
and
there
to
ende
his
daies
:
But
for
that
he
loued
his
squires
verie
well
,
and
likewise
knowing
the
great
loue
that
they
bare
vnto
him
,
his
heart
was
readie
to
burst
in
péeces
for
to
apart
himselfe
from
them
.
Likewise
all
those
knights
of
Candia
,
and
the
olde
pilot
,
did
labour
all
that
euer
they
could
,
for
to
breake
him
of
his
purpose
,
but
all
would
not
serue
,
and
he
séeing
that
his
tarrying
did
him
no
profit
,
he
went
vnto
the
shippes
side
,
and
with
a
light
heart
he
leapt
into
the
boate
,
and
taking
the
oares
in
his
handes
,
he
began
to
rowe
towards
the
Ilande
,
leauing
so
great
sorow
&
griefe
amongst
all
them
that
were
in
the
shippe
,
that
there
was
not
one
of
them
but
wept
bitterlie
to
see
him
depart
in
that
sorte
,
as
one
desperate
to
receiue
a
cruell
death
,
and
being
a
knight
that
seemed
vnto
them
all
not
to
haue
his
lyke
in
all
the
world
,
yet
all
the
griefe
which
they
receiued
,
was
nothing
vnto
that
of
his
squires
,
when
they
sawe
their
lorde
depart
,
who
like
desperate
men
would
haue
throwne
themselues
into
the
sea
,
if
those
knights
had
not
lette
them
,
and
seemed
vnto
them
to
be
true
and
loyal
vnto
their
lord
,
and
of
a
good
disposition
,
so
with
the
great
care
that
they
had
of
them
,
they
did
kéepe
them
from
destroying
themselues
.
After
this
good
knight
was
departed
,
within
a
shorte
space
he
ariued
at
the
Iland
,
and
those
of
the
ship
lost
sight
of
him
:
but
there
were
some
of
the
shippe
that
saide
that
it
were
good
to
tarrie
ther
a
few
daies
,
for
to
sée
what
should
become
of
him
,
to
whome
the
pilot
saide
,
that
it
was
great
follie
so
to
doe
,
for
two
causes
,
the
one
for
that
he
was
certaine
,
so
soone
as
the
knight
should
come
a
land
with
a
trice
he
should
be
torne
all
to
péeces
by
that
diuelish
Fauno
,
so
that
it
were
lost
labour
to
abyde
anie
more
newes
of
him
,
and
the
other
,
for
that
all
they
should
be
in
great
perill
of
their
liues
,
if
that
the
Fauno
should
discouer
the
shippe
,
and
before
that
we
could
doe
anie
thing
for
to
saile
from
him
,
he
would
ouertake
vs
,
and
giue
vs
all
cruell
deathes
,
as
he
hath
done
to
manie
others
heretofore
.
In
conclusion
,
at
these
words
,
the
knights
consented
not
to
●●aie
,
but
to
departe
,
and
according
vnto
the
great
feare
which
they
receued
,
they
thought
they
tarried
to
long
,
but
the
two
squires
when
they
saw
that
they
departed
,
and
caryed
them
in
their
companie
,
leauing
their
Lord
in
so
great
perill
,
it
cannot
be
declared
the
great
complaints
that
they
made
,
requesting
the
knights
and
pylot
,
for
to
carrie
them
vnto
the
Ilande
,
wherewith
they
should
receiue
great
contentment
,
and
be
ioyfull
,
but
all
their
requestes
were
in
vaine
,
for
that
they
would
not
consent
that
they
should
dye
so
desperate
a
death
,
as
also
for
the
great
pe●ill
which
should
be
vnto
them
all
,
they
would
not
consent
therevnto
,
wherewith
these
good
squires
were
so
desperate
,
that
if
time
had
serued
them
therevnto
,
they
would
haue
throwen
themselues
into
the
sea
,
and
by
swimming
as
well
as
they
could
,
they
would
haue
gon
to
the
Iland
of
the
Fauno
,
but
the
knights
caused
them
to
be
kept
in
the
shippe
,
and
put
into
a
cabin
and
locked
the
dore
,
and
caryed
them
in
their
companie
,
till
in
the
ende
of
certaine
daies
they
ariued
at
Transiluania
,
whereas
they
did
disembarke
themselues
and
went
a
●and
,
but
the
Squires
were
so
leane
&
so
féeble
,
for
that
they
would
not
eate
anie
thing
,
and
againe
by
shedding
of
so
manie
teares
,
that
they
could
scarce
stand
vpon
their
féete
.
And
now
to
returne
to
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
the
Historie
maketh
no
more
mencion
of
them
,
but
when
they
came
vnto
Transiluania
after
that
they
had
remained
there
two
daies
for
to
refresh
and
strengthen
themselues
,
they
sought
an
other
shippe
,
where
in
they
returned
to
seeke
the
Ilande
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
with
determined
good
will
there
to
dye
with
their
Lorde
,
in
which
iourney
they
were
taken
prisoners
,
so
that
they
could
not
accomplish
their
desire
,
as
shal
be
declared
vnto
you
in
the
processe
of
this
Historie
.
¶
How
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
ariued
at
the
Iland
of
the
possessed
Fauno
,
and
of
the
wonderfull
and
perillous
battaile
that
he
had
with
him
.
Chap.
15.
SO
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
departed
from
the
knights
of
Candia
,
he
made
such
hast
in
rowing
with
his
great
&
mightie
strength
that
small
bote
,
that
in
a
short
space
he
ariued
at
the
solitarie
Iland
,
and
surelie
it
was
a
thing
of
great
meruaile
,
&
worthie
to
be
put
in
memorie
,
all
that
happened
with
this
valiant
and
happie
knight
,
for
one
way
the
water
stode
in
his
eies
,
and
his
heart
was
re●die
to
breake
with
so●●w
,
griefe
and
pittie
,
to
sée
his
Squir●s
remaine
so
sorow●ull
and
without
all
comfort
,
&
an
other
waie
,
acknowledging
in
what
peril
he
was
of
his
life
in
that
iourney
,
and
how
he
went
to
put
himselfe
in
the
greatest
perplexitie
that
euer
was
man
,
he
rem●mbred
and
armed
himselfe
with
so
great
hardinesse
&
courage
,
that
he
thought
the
time
long
till
he
did
sée
that
diuelish
Fauno
.
When
that
he
came
a
lande
,
he
sawe
that
all
the
Iland
was
plaine
,
and
verie
fragarant
and
fresh
,
replenished
with
greene
Trées
,
although
there
appeared
manie
buildings
the
which
were
destroyed
and
fallen
downe
to
the
ground
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
it
well
appeared
that
the
people
that
there
dwelled
to
be
diuelish
and
abhoiminable
.
And
as
he
was
beholding
the
countrie
which
séemed
to
be
verie
good
and
fertill
,
he
straight
waies
discouered
where
the
diuelish
Fauno
was
,
yet
was
he
not
nigh
him
but
a
great
waye
of
,
neither
did
he
sée
him
,
but
that
which
proceeded
from
him
,
which
was
an
infernall
fier
,
which
seemed
to
reach
vp
vnto
the
Skies
,
with
so
great
a
noyse
,
as
though
it
had
thundred
,
(
and
as
the
wise
Lirgandeo
saith
,
that
there
was
no
humane
heart
of
so
sufficient
courage
for
to
séeke
out
so
terrible
and
wonderfull
attempt
,
as
was
this
of
that
worthie
&
valiant
knight
)
in
whose
heart
neuer
entred
any
feare
,
but
with
so
valiant
and
couragious
a
stomacke
,
determined
to
seeke
that
mishapen
and
infernall
beast
,
●ull
of
so
manie
legions
of
diuells
.
And
for
that
he
would
not
that
there
should
remaine
any
thing
that
might
carrie
him
out
from
that
Ilande
,
hée
drew
the
b●te
that
brought
him
thether
a
lande
,
and
with
one
of
the
oares
with
the
which
he
rowed
,
he
broke
it
all
to
peeces
,
and
scattered
them
abroade
alongst
the
water
syde
,
that
the
force
of
the
waues
might
carrie
awaie
the
péeces
.
But
before
he
departed
from
that
place
where
he
ariued
,
he
fell
downe
vppon
his
knées
,
and
with
manie
sorowful
sighes
,
&
triikling
teares
,
which
ranne
downe
his
chéekes
,
in
signe
that
he
was
a
true
and
faithfull
Christian
,
he
sayde
as
followeth
.
OH
soueraigne
creator
,
both
of
heauen
and
earth
,
without
whose
good
will
there
is
no
diuell
that
hath
any
power
,
neither
without
it
can
men
,
fowles
,
nor
brute
beastes
liue
vpon
the
face
of
the
earth
,
nor
be
sustained
nor
gouerned
,
without
it
the
Elements
would
be
confounded
,
&
the
heauens
lose
their
course
and
naturall
mouings
.
The
earth
would
quake
,
and
the
high
and
mightie
mountaines
would
fall
:
The
waters
of
the
Seas
would
ouer
flow
the
lande
,
and
no
liuing
thing
should
finde
where
to
be
sustained
,
but
thou
by
thy
infinit
goodnesse
and
mercie
,
doest
ordaine
and
sustaine
all
,
not
for
that
it
is
to
thée
necessarie
,
but
for
the
profit
of
man
.
Therefore
séeing
that
thou
doest
vse
so
great
pittie
and
mercie
with
them
,
here
Lorde
I
doe
desire
thée
,
that
in
this
perillous
danger
,
thou
wouldest
not
leaue
me
,
and
if
I
haue
anie
desire
herein
to
gette
the
victory
,
it
is
not
for
anie
honor
nor
vaine
glorie
that
I
hope
to
maintaine
thereby
,
but
onely
to
haue
a
little
more
time
for
to
liue
in
this
dispeopled
and
solitarie
Ilande
,
whereas
I
may
fully
repent
mée
for
the
life
which
hetherto
I
haue
lead
,
and
for
to
doe
some
penance
for
the
euills
which
I
haue
committed
against
thy
diuine
magestie
:
But
if
it
be
thy
will
that
I
dye
in
this
trance
,
I
doe
most
hartely
desire
thée
,
not
to
looke
vpon
my
sinnes
and
wickednesse
,
but
to
haue
mercie
vpon
this
my
soule
,
which
is
immortal
,
and
by
thée
created
to
thy
similitude
and
likenesse
,
for
eternal
li●e
,
and
diddest
redéeme
it
with
thy
most
precious
bloud
,
the
which
I
pray
thée
to
pardon
and
to
receiue
,
at
such
time
as
it
doth
depart
out
of
this
wretched
bodie
:
my
death
doth
not
greue
mée
so
much
,
as
that
I
haue
not
time
enough
to
serue
thée
.
When
this
good
k●●ght
had
saide
these
wordes
,
he
arose
vp
vpon
his
féete
,
and
looking
towards
that
part
the
which
was
toward
Grecia
,
with
deepe
&
profound
sighes
he
saide
.
OH
Empresse
Claridiana
,
how
ioyfull
would
it
be
vnto
my
heart
,
if
that
I
did
know
of
certaintie
,
that
thou
wert
acquainted
with
this
my
daungerous
attempt
,
with
the
which
I
am
bestead
,
for
that
seeing
that
my
fortune
hath
not
giuen
place
in
my
life
time
to
doe
you
anie
seruice
,
it
may
be
that
the
acknowledgeing
of
my
death
might
do
you
good
,
for
that
I
am
fullie
certefied
you
take
great
pleasure
therein
.
Oh
that
my
fortune
and
cruell
desti●ie
had
permitted
,
that
in
the
battaile
the
which
you
made
with
me
in
Constantinople
,
I
had
bene
slaine
,
sure
it
had
ben
a
crowne
of
martyrdome
vnto
me
,
for
to
haue
receiued
the
death
by
your
soueraigne
hands
.
But
alasse
,
in
this
doe
I
know
that
my
misfortune
is
great
,
and
in
the
end
cannot
be
denied
of
this
glorie
,
to
knowe
that
you
take
pleasure
in
my
death
,
for
that
taking
so
great
paines
for
to
giue
it
mee
with
your
owne
handes
,
I
cannot
beléeue
that
in
so
short
space
you
haue
repented
you
.
And
séeing
(
good
Ladie
)
that
it
is
so
that
you
desire
so
much
my
death
,
let
not
god
permit
that
against
your
will
I
liue
anie
longer
in
this
world
.
Oh
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
how
ioyfull
will
it
be
vnto
you
to
heare
of
my
death
,
knowing
that
she
alonly
was
the
occasion
for
whom
I
forgot
the
great
loue
that
I
bare
vnto
you
,
and
verifie
the
sentence
to
be
iust
,
and
according
vnto
my
desert
to
be
abhorred
of
her
,
for
whose
sake
I
forgot
you
,
and
worthie
to
receiue
the
punishment
of
her
that
was
the
occasion
to
leaue
so
high
and
soueraigne
a
Ladie
.
But
what
doe
I
saie
?
I
did
neither
leaue
her
nor
forget
her
,
and
is
no
other
thing
but
my
fortune
to
be
so
base
,
that
I
did
not
deserue
to
marrie
with
the
one
,
nor
to
serue
the
other
.
Oh
Emperour
Trebatio
my
Lord
,
&
my
Ladie
and
mother
the
Empresse
Briana
,
I
desire
you
to
pardon
me
,
for
the
Lord
doth
know
that
the
greatest
griefe
that
I
haue
in
this
world
,
is
to
consider
of
the
great
sorrowe
that
you
will
receiue
,
when
that
the
newes
of
my
death
shall
come
vnto
your
eares
,
let
this
bée
account
of
comfort
vnto
you
,
to
make
●eckoning
that
you
neuer
heard
of
me
,
since
the
time
that
I
was
carried
awaie
in
the
barke
by
the
force
of
the
riuer
when
that
I
was
a
child
,
and
héere
I
beseech
the
almightie
God
and
loueraigne
creator
to
comfort
you
,
and
put
this
aforesayd
in
your
mindes
.
Oh
my
good
brother
Rosicleer
;
oh
how
much
is
the
sorrow
that
I
doe
now
feele
,
for
that
I
so
quicklie
do
apart
my selfe
out
of
your
companie
,
and
a
great
griefe
to
consider
,
howe
sorrowfull
the
newes
will
be
vnto
you
when
that
you
shall
heare
that
I
am
out
of
this
world
.
Ah
my
good
brother
,
you
that
are
the
flower
of
all
knighthood
,
comfort
our
father
and
mother
that
are
so
mentioned
amongest
all
Nations
,
for
whereas
you
are
in
person
,
my
presence
will
not
be
thought
vpon
.
Oh
my
verie
good
and
perfect
friends
Oristedes
,
Brandizel
,
and
Claueryndo
,
the
Lord
doth
knowe
how
much
it
doth
grieue
me
,
to
sée
my selfe
separated
from
your
companie
for
euer
,
but
alasse
what
shall
I
doe
,
séeing
that
fortune
will
that
I
shall
shew
my selfe
vnto
you
and
all
the
world
in
this
condition
.
And
now
I
doe
desire
you
neuer
more
to
séeke
mée
,
for
that
in
briefe
I
shall
out
of
this
worlde
.
Take
for
your
friend
my
Brother
Rosicleer
in
my
place
,
as
well
for
that
of
your
owne
persons
is
meritorious
,
as
for
the
great
good
will
which
alwaies
I
did
beare
vnto
you
,
hée
I
am
sure
will
bée
vnto
you
a
verie
good
and
perfect
friend
.
These
and
many
other
things
spake
this
good
knight
,
in
shedding
so
many
teares
,
and
vttering
so
many
sighes
,
that
whosoeuer
had
heard
them
(
although
his
heart
had
bene
so
hard
as
anie
Diamond
)
yet
could
he
not
haue
refrained
but
wept
ther
at
.
And
as
he
would
haue
put
himselfe
in
the
way
to
goe
toward
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
he
bethought
himselfe
how
and
in
what
sort
he
might
make
battaile
with
him
,
and
it
it
séemed
that
if
fortune
shuld
shew
her selfe
in
anie
thing
fauourable
vnto
him
,
it
should
be
to
make
the
battaile
better
on
foot
than
on
horsebacke
,
&
now
according
vnto
his
determination
,
whether
he
did
liue
or
die
,
he
had
no
more
néede
of
his
horse
Cornerino
,
therfore
he
determined
to
let
him
loose
,
&
go
at
his
frée
liberty
,
in
recompence
of
his
good
seruice
done
vnto
him
,
and
because
he
might
more
at
his
plasure
take
his
repast
of
the
field
&
go
whether
he
list
,
he
pulled
off
his
bridle
and
saddle
,
and
set
him
at
libertie
,
the
which
was
done
with
shedding
many
teares
,
saying
.
Oh
my
good
horse
,
what
a
great
griefe
it
it
vnto
mée
●or
to
leaue
thée
,
not
for
that
I
haue
néed
of
thée
from
henceforth
,
but
onelie
for
that
I
would
it
were
knowen
the
great
good
seruice
which
thou
hast
done
vnto
me
,
&
that
thou
shouldest
be
intreated
,
dressed
,
&
cured
as
thou
doest
deserue
.
If
that
Alexander
of
Macedon
did
make
so
gorgious
a
tombe
for
his
horse
,
to
burie
him
when
he
was
dead
,
&
commanded
a
citie
to
be
called
after
his
name
,
I
should
haue
greater
reason
to
honor
thée
being
thou
aliue
&
his
dead
,
&
much
better
than
euer
his
was
.
Augustus
made
a
graue
for
his
horse
being
dead
,
for
that
he
would
not
that
the
soules
of
the
aire
shuld
eate
his
flesh
.
Dido
Iulio
did
consecrate
in
the
Temple
of
Venus
,
the
image
of
his
horse
made
in
marble
stone
.
Anthonio
Vero
made
the
image
of
his
horse
being
aliue
in
gold●
and
now
I
hauing
done
nothing
for
thée
being
farre
better
than
euer
anie
of
those
were
,
what
can
I
doe
but
set
thée
at
libertie
whereas
thou
maist
take
the
pleasure
of
the
fieldes
as
other
beasts
do
,
therfore
go
thy
waies
good
horse
,
for
thou
art
the
last
companie
that
I
doe
leaue
in
this
world
.
In
saying
these
words
he
draue
him
from
him
for
to
departe
,
but
it
was
great
meruaile
to
sée
the
nature
of
this
horse
,
for
although
he
was
loose
and
at
libertie
without
anie
incomberance
,
yat
wold
he
not
depart
,
but
drew
nigher
and
nigher
his
maister
,
and
trembled
meruailouslie
with
all
his
bodie
,
&
the
more
he
did
procure
to
driue
him
awaie
,
the
more
he
did
approch
vnto
him
,
trembling
as
with
feare
,
then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
knew
not
what
to
do
,
for
one
waie
the
great
perill
of
his
horse
if
that
diuellish
Fauno
should
sée
him
,
&
another
waie
he
could
by
no
meanes
driue
him
away
for
anie
thing
he
could
do
,
but
in
the
end
he
bethought
himselfe
,
that
if
he
left
him
there
loose
,
possible
when
he
did
sée
the
diuellish
Eauno
,
he
would
runne
awaie
,
and
therewith
hée
left
him
,
and
began
to
trauaile
a
foote
into
the
Iland
,
and
as
he
passed
through
a
companie
of
great
and
ouergrowen
Okes
,
he
remembred
himselfe
of
the
battaile
which
hée
had
with
Brandimardo
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
&
how
that
he
made
the
same
with
a
club
made
of
a
branch
he
tore
off
from
a
trée
,
for
that
he
would
not
strike
him
with
the
sworde
wherewith
he
dyd
make
the
battaile
with
the
Empresse
Clarid●ana
,
and
calling
this
to
remembrance
,
with
great
furie
he
sa●d
vnto
himselfe
.
God
forbidde
that
the
sword
wherewith
I
did
strike
so
high
and
soueraigne
a
Ladie
,
should
now
be
defiled
in
the
bloud
of
so
foule
&
infernall
a
monster
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
,
with
great
furie
and
force
he
laide
holde
with
both
his
handes
vpon
a
great
and
knotted
branch
of
one
of
those
Okes
,
and
tore
it
from
the
bodie
of
the
trée
,
and
trimming
it
in
the
best
manner
he
could
,
he
laid
it
vpon
his
shoulder
,
the
which
was
so
great
and
heauie
,
that
many
other
knightes
should
lacke
strength
to
lift
it
vp
from
the
ground
.
And
as
he
trauailed
in
this
sort
,
he
thought
within
himselfe
,
that
if
hée
should
be
slaine
in
that
battaile
,
that
then
his
good
swoorde
should
remaine
in
the
fielde
,
and
then
afterward
it
might
so
fall
out
,
that
in
time
that
Iland
might
againe
bée
peopled
,
then
●oulde
it
not
be
other
wise
,
but
that
sworde
must
come
to
the
hand
of
some
knight
,
wherewith
he
might
shed
the
bloud
of
others
,
and
for
that
he
would
not
doe
so
greate
iniurie
vnto
so
precious
a
Ladie
,
hée
determined
first
for
to
break
it
all
to
péeces
,
in
such
sort
,
that
afterward
none
might
profit
himselfe
therewith
.
Then
considering
how
&
in
what
manner
he
might
execute
his
determination
to
breake
th●
sword
in
péeces
,
he
sawe
by
him
a
little
rocke
the
height
of
〈…〉
,
although
it
were
farre
bigger
,
and
of
very
hard
stone
,
and
thinking
thereon
to
break
it
to
péeces
,
he
drew
out
that
●●ne
sword
,
&
laide
vpon
that
rocke
so
many
strong
blowes
,
that
it
séemed
to
burne
with
the
great
quantitie
of
fire
that
flew
out
thereof
,
but
by
reason
of
his
great
goodnesse
,
for
that
it
was
one
of
the
best
that
was
to
be
found
in
all
the
world
,
all
the
strength
that
he
had
,
neither
the
hardnesse
of
the
rocke
was
sufficient
to
breake
it
,
it
was
the
sword
the
which
he
had
of
the
Prince
Meridian
,
whereat
this
worthie
Prince
was
in
so
great
furie
and
wrath
,
that
with
double
strength
he
assaulted
againe
the
rocke
,
and
in
a
short
space
he
did
cut
and
breake
it
all
to
péeces
,
and
the
swoorde
neuer
the
worse
.
(
In
this
,
saith
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
,
that
this
knight
had
the
greatest
force
&
strength
that
euer
humane
creature
had
before
or
after
him
,
and
an
euident
token
to
consider
,
that
in
so
smal
time
he
should
cut
&
breake
to
péeces
such
a
rocke
as
that
was
,
the
which
no
humane
force
was
able
to
doe
it
,
but
he
onlie
)
then
this
good
knight
séeing
that
all
that
euer
he
could
doe
was
not
sufficient
to
breake
that
sword
(
although
he
made
it
many
times
to
double
&
bow
the
point
vnto
the
hilt
)
he
determined
to
leaue
it
there
,
and
for
that
afterward
it
shuld
be
the
better
estéemed
of
him
whose
fortune
it
should
be
to
finde
it
,
in
the
highest
part
of
pea●e
of
that
rocke
that
remained
,
with
the
point
of
his
sword
hee
engraued
in
Gréeke
vearse
these
wordes
following
.
IF
héereafter
in
anie
time
it
chanceth
anie
knight
to
finde
this
sword
,
you
shal
vnderstand
that
it
is
the
knight
of
the
Suns
,
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
●●rebatio
,
who
comming
to
this
Iland
in
the
demaund
&
séeking
out
of
the
diuellish
Fauno
for
to
battaile
with
him
,
&
because
he
would
not
haue
the
said
sword
defiled
on
him
,
he
left
it
,
&
wold
not
carrie
it
with
him
,
&
for
that
after
his
death
he
would
it
should
not
come
into
the
power
of
anie
other
,
he
did
procure
to
breake
it
vpon
this
rocke
,
the
which
was
cut
and
broken
therewith
in
such
sort
as
you
finde
it
,
and
yet
the
sword
could
not
be
broken
,
therefore
I
desire
thée
,
whose
fortune
it
is
to
find
it
,
neuer
to
strike
or
wound
anie
therewith
,
because
his
owner
in
the
time
of
his
greatest
necessitie
did
leaue
the
same
,
in
consideration
that
he
stroke
therewith
the
most
highest
and
soueraigntest
Ladie
and
Damsell
that
euer
was
borne
amongst
humane
creatures
.
〈◊〉
Thus
when
the
knight
of
the
Sun
had
engrauen
these
wordes
,
he
put
the
sword
into
the
●ich
scabbard
,
&
hanged
it
girdle
&
all
of
gold
vpon
the
●aid
rocke
,
and
tooke
his
knotted
club
vpon
his
shoulder
&
began
to
go
forwards
his
way
a
good
pace
,
his
horse
followed
after
him
a
good
waie
off
.
In
this
sort
the
knight
trauailed
,
&
did
discouer
from
a
far
the
fire
that
procéeded
out
at
the
mouth
of
this
diuellish
Fauno
,
wherby
he
might
discerne
where
he
was
.
So
halfe
an
houre
after
that
he
departed
from
the
rocke
,
with
the
large
pace
in
his
going
he
came
within
an
arow
sh●t
of
the
place
whereas
the
Fanno
was
,
from
whence
he
discouered
the
wonderful
&
mishapen
figure
of
that
mons●er
,
whose
force
&
furiousnesse
,
no
humane
creature
was
able
to
discerne
,
but
that
which
made
this
knight
meruaile
most
,
was
to
sée
come
forth
at
the
mouth
of
this
beast
,
with
the
fire
&
smoake
,
so
infinit
a
compaine
of
diuels
in
the
shape
of
:
armed
men
,
that
it
〈◊〉
all
the
diuels
in
hell
to
be
ioyned
the●e
together
,
&
of
them
he
sawe
comming
towards
him
a
bushment
,
which
seemed
to
the
number
of
two
hundreth
,
making
so
great
a
noise
,
as
though
the
whole
Iland
would
haue
sunke
,
his
good
horse
Cornerino
till
that
time
did
follow
him
,
but
at
that
great
noise
he
returned
backe
againe
like
vnto
a
whirle
winde
,
vnto
the
place
from
whence
he
came
,
&
although
the
infernal
companie
came
against
him
with
so
great
force
,
yet
this
valiant
and
couragious
knight
did
dismaie
nothing
there●t
,
but
with
an
irefull
semblance
he
larged
his
pace
towards
them
for
to
worke
his
furie
on
them
,
who
when
they
came
vnto
him
,
did
first
assalt
him
with
infernall
visions
,
&
then
did
laie
vpon
him
with
their
shod
clubs
&
yron
mases
,
so
thicke
&
terrible
blowes
,
that
it
séemed
to
be
the
forge
of
Vulcan
,
but
this
valiant
knight
taking
his
club
in
both
his
hands
,
began
with
so
great
furie
to
besturre
himselfe
amongst
them
,
that
all
that
euer
was
before
him
he
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
,
&
by
reason
that
they
did
ouerpresse
him
very
much
with
their
thick
&
terrible
blowes
,
he
waxed
verie
w●athfull
,
&
did
redouble
his
furious
blowes
,
in
such
sort
,
that
in
a
short
time
the
infernal
companie
began
to
flie
&
returne
vnto
the
place
from
whence
they
came
,
making
such
houllings
&
shrikes
,
that
it
would
haue
feared
anie
man
to
haue
heard
them
:
This
infernall
companie
had
scarce
returned
,
when
there
came
forth
at
his
mouth
another
legion
of
diuels
,
such
as
the
first
were
,
all
armed●
with
mases
of
yron
in
〈…〉
,
&
did
resemble
giants
&
came
towards
the
good
knight
,
making
a
greater
noise
than
it
doth
when
it
thundieth
&
throweth
out
some
thunderb●lt
,
&
when
they
came
vnto
him
,
they
assalted
&
compassed
him
〈◊〉
about
,
&
charged
him
with
so
many
heauie
&
terrible
blowes
,
that
thrée
times
they
made
him
to
stoup
with
knées
&
hands
downe
to
the
ground
,
but
commending
himselfe
vnto
almightie
God
with
his
heart
,
he
likewise
charged
them
with
so
terrible
blowes
with
his
knotted
club
,
that
in
a
smal
space
he
made
them
to
shrike
〈…〉
dog
when
they
are
hurt
,
and
not
being
able
to
suffer
〈…〉
force
and
strength
of
the
knight
,
euen
as
the
other
did
they
returned
in
great
hast
vnto
the
place
from
whence
they
came
,
and
altogether
they
threw
themselues
into
the
mouth
of
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
who
at
this
tune
(
as
one
that
did
awake
out
of
his
sléepe
)
turned
about
and
stretched
himselfe
,
gnashing
and
grinding
his
vnmercifull
teeth
,
stretching
out
his
cruell
nailes
both
on
handes
and
féet●e
,
and
brist●ed
vp
his
haire
wherewith
he
was
couered
,
as
doth
the
wilde
Boare
when
that
he
is
chased
with
dogges
,
he
did
also
increate
the
fire
that
procéeded
from
his
mouth
,
making
it
to
fume
vp
into
the
Clowdes
,
whose
sparkles
scattered
abroade
,
as
doth
in
the
Smithes
forge
,
at
such
time
as
blowing
he
throweth
sand
into
his
fire
,
and
after
a
while
that
he
had
thus
roused
himselfe
,
hée
arose
from
the
ground
whereas
he
was
laide
,
and
looked
towards
the
place
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
,
with
such
terrible
eies
,
that
at
noone
daies
they
did
shew
as
much
light
as
doth
two
torches
in
the
night
,
there
was
not
to
bée
seene
in
all
〈◊〉
world
a
thing
of
greater
meruaile
and
fiercenesse
,
and
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
(
who
did
see
this
monster
after
that
he
was
slain
)
saith
,
that
he
supposeth
that
there
was
no
humane
creature
that
had
so
much
courage
as
once
to
beholde
and
looke
vpon
this
infernall
monster
,
who
laie
on
a
gréene
place
which
was
betwixt
a●
mountaine
and
a
water
brooke
that
ranne
〈◊〉
him
,
but
when
that
hée
had
séene
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
hee
gaue
a
mightie
leape
into
the
aire
,
and
passed
therewith
ouer
the
brooke
with
so
terrible
a
noise
,
that
it
séemed
all
the
wh●le
Ilan●e
woulde
haue
sunke
,
and
therewith
hee
went
towardes
the
knight
,
and
bare
his
head
verie
lowe
for
to
strike
him
with
his
horne
,
(
as
dooth
the
Bull
against
the
furious
〈◊〉
)
thinking
therewith
for
to
wound
him
,
if
he
had
fastned
that
blow
he
had
stroke
him
all
to
péeces
,
but
this
couragious
knight
,
who
was
as
light
and
nimble
,
as
hardie
&
bold
,
with
a
light
leape
cléered
himselfe
of
that
perilious
encounter
,
without
doing
him
anie
other
harme
,
but
that
he
thought
he
shoulde
haue
ben
burnt
with
that
〈◊〉
fire
that
he
threw
out
of
his
mouth
,
and
as
this
infernall
Fauno
did
passe
forwards
with
the
hastinesse
of
his
running
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
no
time
for
to
strike
him
,
who
was
not
scarce
well
〈◊〉
when
that
with
another
impetuous
course
he
returned
vppon
him
,
and
the
fire
and
smoake
that
he
cast
out
before
him
was
of
so
great
abundaunce
,
as
also
the
great
furie
of
the
beast
,
that
this
valiant
Knight
had
no
time
nor
space
for
to
cléere
himselfe
from
that
encounter
,
but
it
fell
out
verie
well
with
him
,
that
his
horne
chaunced
betwixt
his
arme
and
his
left
side
,
and
dyd
him
no
other
harme
,
but
with
his
head
hée
gaue
him
so
strong
an
encounter
,
that
hauing
no
power
to
sustaine
himselfe
,
hée
fell
backwardes
vnto
the
earth
,
and
passing
ouer
him
,
hée
was
meruailouslie
tormented
as
well
with
the
blow
of
the
fall
,
as
with
the
fire
which
dyd
secalde
him
verie
much
.
And
su●elie
till
that
time
this
good
knight
neuer
sawe
himselfe
in
so
great
perplexitie
,
but
by
reason
that
hée
was
of
so
greate
magnanimitie
in
all
thinges
,
his
courage
dyd
increase
,
so
that
without
anie
whit
of
feare
and
dreade
,
he
arose
vp
againe
with
great
lyghtnesse
,
being
verie
furious
and
angrie
with
himselfe
,
for
that
hée
could
neuer
fasten
one
blowe
vpon
the
Fauno
,
hee
then
firmed
himselfe
verie
stronglie
,
and
tooke
,
his
clubbe
fast
in
both
his
handes
,
abiding
when
that
he
shoulde
retourne
againe
vpon
him
with
his
accustomed
furie
,
hée
putting
him selfe
with
great
pollicie
on
the
one
side
,
at
such
time
as
hée
should
passe
by
,
the
beast
missing
his
purpose
,
he
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
with
his
clubbe
vpon
his
horne
with
so
great
furie
,
force
,
and
strength
,
that
he
brak●
it
from
the
scull
,
and
it
fell
downe
to
the
ground
.
Great
was
the
paine
and
griefe
that
this
infernall
Fauno
felt
by
that
terrible
blowe
,
and
it
could
not
bée
imagined
the
fiercenesse
that
hée
as
then
vsed
,
and
roared
and
houled
with
so
great
noise
,
that
in
ten
miles
compasse
it
might
be
heard
,
but
little
profit
was
this
vnto
the
knight
,
for
when
the
Fauno
found
himselfe
without
his
horne
,
he
vsed
a
new
meanes
(
and
no
lesse
perillous
than
the
other
)
to
assault
the
knight
,
and
procured
by
all
meanes
for
to
catch
him
betwixt
his
〈◊〉
and
strong
armes
,
and
sharpe
nailes
,
throwing
out
at
〈◊〉
mouth
greate
flames
of
fire
,
as
though
his
bodie
had
〈◊〉
●ull
of
gunpouder
,
wherewith
this
good
knight
had
ben
burnt
to
ashes
with
that
infernal
fire
,
if
it
had
not
ben
for
that
good
armour
(
which
was
of
Meridian
)
the
which
had
a
meruailous
propertie
,
and
it
was
this
,
that
those
great
&
small
bones
wherof
it
was
made
,
were
extreame
cold
,
&
made
great
resistance
against
the
fire
.
Likewise
his
helme
was
garnished
ful
of
verie
fine
rubies
,
and
those
(
as
saith
the
wise
Lirgandeo
)
doth
resist
the
ouermuch
force
and
strength
of
the
fire
,
in
such
sort
,
that
he
was
not
much
troubled
therwith
,
yet
for
all
that
the
soultring
heat
was
such
,
that
if
it
had
ben
anie
other
knight
of
lesse
strength
,
he
could
not
haue
suffered
it
,
so
as
this
diuellish
Fauno
laboured
by
al
meanes
possible
to
get
this
knight
betwixt
his
armes
:
euen
so
did
he
with
all
lightnesse
that
might
be
,
procure
to
defend
&
kéepe
himselfe
out
of
his
clawes
,
many
●●mes
striking
him
with
his
mightie
club
vpon
the
deformed
bodie
,
but
it
did
him
no
more
harme
than
if
he
had
stroke
vpon
a
rock
,
yet
had
he
a
great
aduantage
of
him
,
for
out
of
his
forehead
from
whence
he
stroke
his
horne
,
there
issued
great
abundance
of
bloud
,
which
ran
downe
ouer
his
eies
,
&
troubled
him
very
much
,
but
by
reason
that
hée
had
within
him
so
many
legions
of
d●uels
the
which
did
aide
&
helpe
him
,
that
this
good
knight
could
not
make
his
defence
in
so
good
order
,
but
that
he
was
caught
betwixt
his
big
and
hairie
armes
,
which
was
of
so
great
strength
that
he
could
not
imagine
●
thing
of
greater
force
,
&
meruailed
much
how
that
with
his
nailes
he
was
not
rent
&
torne
all
to
peeces
,
but
héere
at
this
present
,
might
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
estéeme
his
good
armour
of
great
price
,
as
of
the
best
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
the
whole
world
,
for
although
the
force
&
strength
of
that
in●ernall
Fauno
was
sufficient
to
destroie
a
whole
armie
of
souldiours
,
yet
lacked
he
strength
for
to
break
or
buckle
one
péece
of
all
that
armour
,
&
his
strong
and
sharpe
nailes
that
could
teare
in
péeces
a
stith
of
stéele
,
could
not
enter
into
this
armour
,
so
that
this
Fauno
carried
him
from
one
place
vnto
another
,
and
did
him
no
more
harme
,
but
that
which
he
receiued
by
the
heat
of
the
fire
,
for
as
he
carried
him
nigh
vnto
his
mouth
,
he
thought
verilie
to
haue
bene
burned
,
but
the
which
the
knight
of
the
Sun
was
most
grieued
at
,
was
,
that
he
helde
him
so
fast
betwixt
his
armes
,
that
he
had
no
power
to
put
forth
his
armes
,
neither
to
vse
his
own
strength
.
In
this
sort
the
monster
caried
him
vp
&
down
a
good
while
,
till
at
the
last
the
knight
felt
that
he
might
firme
his
féet
on
the
ground
,
at
which
time
he
stretched
his
legs
,
&
made
so
strong
resistance
against
the
Fauno
,
that
he
made
him
somwhat
to
recoile
,
whereat
giuing
a
hastie
&
strong
turne
,
hée
wrong
himselfe
out
of
his
clawes
,
&
with
great
lightnesse
tooke
againe
his
club
(
the
which
was
fallen
from
him
)
&
as
the
Fauno
with
great
impetuositie
returned
vpon
him
,
hée
was
in
a
readinenesse
with
his
bat
in
both
his
hands
abiding
his
comming
,
but
before
he
approched
nigh
him
,
he
stroke
him
so
terrible
a
blow
with
his
club
vpon
his
head
,
that
although
his
scull
was
more
harder
than
a
stith
,
yet
he
made
him
to
tumble
on
the
earth
more
than
halfe
amazed
,
&
before
he
could
recouer
himselfe
for
to
rise
vp
,
he
redoubled
another
blow
,
and
stroke
him
in
the
same
place
,
that
he
made
him
to
ioyne
both
head
&
breast
vnto
the
ground
cleane
out
of
remembrance
,
at
which
time
there
was
so
timerous
a
noise
of
shrikings
&
howlings
which
those
infernall
diuells
made
,
comming
forth
of
his
mouth
,
shewing
such
ill
fauoured
figures
&
mishapen
visions
,
that
no
humane
creature
that
shuld
behold
it
,
but
would
haue
receiued
great
feare
&
dreade
,
but
this
knight
the
flower
of
all
other
,
if
all
hel
had
risen
against
him
(
with
the
fauour
of
almightie
God
,
vpon
whom
he
did
call
)
would
not
haue
feared
them
,
so
that
he
was
not
onelie
without
dreade
,
but
also
with
a
greater
force
and
strength
than
before
,
he
lift
vp
his
heauie
knotted
club
,
and
at
such
time
as
this
infernall
Fauno
would
haue
risen
vp
,
he
with
all
his
force
dyd
strike
him
such
a
blow
vpon
the
head
,
that
by
reason
that
before
his
scull
was
crazed
,
he
now
did
beate
it
into
his
braines
,
and
made
them
to
runne
abrode
,
wherewith
this
diuellish
Fauno
fell
altogether
to
the
ground
,
and
shaked
with
all
his
bodie
,
and
scrawling
with
hands
&
féet●
he
made
the
earth
to
flie
from
him
a
great
waie
with
the
pangs
of
death
.
This
monster
was
not
so
soone
fallen
down
,
but
all
that
infernall
crue
that
were
within
his
bellie
began
to
come
forth
at
his
mouth
,
with
so
great
quantitie
of
fire
,
that
they
séemed
all
to
burne
therewith
and
vpon
a
sodaine
,
(
the
Sunne
which
shined
as
then
verie
cléere
)
was
as
though
it
had
ben
couered
with
a
cloude
,
and
all
the
heauen
was
so
darkned
,
that
throughout
all
that
Iland
it
séemed
as
though
it
had
ben
night
,
and
therewithall
it
thundred
and
lightned
in
such
terrible
sort
,
as
though
heauen
and
earth
would
haue
sunke
,
and
ther
appeared
vnto
this
good
knight
many
infernal
visions
,
in
as
horrible
maner
as
might
be
,
all
full
of
fire
,
in
such
sort
,
that
although
it
was
as
darke
as
night
,
yet
there
appeared
a
meruailous
and
an
innumerable
number
of
them
so
light
as
firebrands
,
that
he
thought
verily
that
all
the
diuels
of
hell
had
ben
there
ioyned
together
.
In
this
sort
they
continued
a
while
,
and
then
vpon
a
sodaine
he
saw
together
a
mightie
legion
of
diuells
in
a
bushment
,
who
brought
in
the
midst
amongst
them
a
naked
woman
,
whom
they
tormented
in
as
cruell
sort
as
might
bée
imagined
,
she
gaue
great
and
pittifull
shrikes
,
and
complained
in
such
sort
,
that
the
knight
well
vnderstood
she
should
be
the
wise
Artimaga
,
who
was
brought
thether
by
those
diuells
whereas
her
sonne
laie
dead
,
and
as
they
carried
her
round
about
the
place
,
some
of
them
did
strike
her
with
s●rebrandes
,
that
euerie
blowe
séemed
to
burne
her
vnto
the
guts
,
and
other
some
dyd
whip
her
so
cruellie
,
that
euerie
gyrke
dyd
make
the
bloud
to
spring
out
of
her
bodie
,
and
she
with
greate
shrikes
and
cryes
(
that
seemed
to
bée
heard
vnto
the
heauens
)
sayd
.
Oh
Artimaga
,
cursed
be
the
daie
&
hour
that
thy
father
&
〈◊〉
begot
thée
,
and
the
day
wherein
thou
wert
borne
,
&
cursed
be
that
day
wherein
the
diuel
did
deceiue
thee
,
and
the
day
that
first
thou
didst
put
thy
trust
and
confidence
in
him
,
these
be
his
promises
,
and
this
infernal
fruite
is
that
which
he
promised
thée
,
this
is
he
that
I
so
much
desired
,
by
whom
I
and
all
this
Iland
should
be
so
much
spoken
of
,
all
hath
fallen
out
to
be
true
,
for
that
the
sonne
which
was
borne
of
mée
,
did
proue
to
be
such
,
that
the
remembraunce
of
him
shall
not
be
forgotten
▪
so
long
as
the
world
endureth
.
These
and
other
such
words
vttered
this
Artimaga
,
in
the
time
that
these
diuells
carryed
her
round
about
,
where
as
her
sonne
lay
with
continual
torments
of
her
,
that
it
moued
the
good
knight
(
that
did
beholde
all
this
)
vnto
great
compassion
.
So
after
a
while
that
this
endured
,
it
began
to
lighten
and
thunder
much
more
then
before
,
in
which
terrible
noyse
,
all
this
infernal
companie
began
to
vanish
away
,
and
all
those
diuells
that
brought
Artimaga
likewise
returned
,
neuer
ceasing
in
tormenting
hir
one
minute
of
an
houre
.
So
when
they
were
all
vanished
and
departed
,
the
day
began
to
cléere
vp
,
&
the
Sunne
to
shine
as
bright
as
before
,
and
was
nothing
séene
in
all
the
Iland
,
but
this
good
knight
standing
by
the
Fauno
,
who
was
altogether
starke
dead
,
but
Cornerino
his
good
horse
being
scared
with
that
great
noyse
of
thunder
,
ranne
and
put
himselfe
into
the
sea
,
wheras
he
remained
swimming
vp
and
downe
,
till
all
was
past
and
gon
,
and
then
he
came
a
land
againe
:
after
that
all
this
was
finished
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
knéeled
downe
vpon
the
ground
,
and
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
for
the
〈◊〉
which
he
had
giuen
vnto
him
,
and
finding
himselfe
all
sowltering
hot
with
the
fire
of
the
Fauno
,
he
pulled
of
his
armour
,
and
with
the
water
of
the
brooke
he
did
refresh
himselfe
in
drinking
thereof
,
and
washing
his
bodie
,
this
being
done
,
he
returned
to
behold
the
Fauno
,
whereas
he
lay
dead
,
and
in
séeing
him
,
he
began
a
new
to
meruaile
at
his
wonderful
and
mishapen
forme
,
&
thought
it
a
thing
impossible
that
nature
should
bring
foorth
to
monstrous
a
creature
.
Then
after
that
he
had
vewed
him
a
while
,
he
went
and
vewed
all
the
Iland
,
and
founde
it
to
be
solitarie
,
and
not
one
left
in
all
the
whole
compasse
,
wheras
before
it
was
meruailously
replenished
with
all
maner
of
beastes
,
and
as
then
not
one
remaining
,
for
that
this
infernall
Fauno
,
had
eaten
&
destroied
them
Likewise
he
found
that
all
the
edifices
and
buildings
were
ou●●throwen
with
weather
,
and
broken
downe
,
which
seemed
before
time
to
be
meruailously
well
peopled
,
where
at
he
receiued
great
griefe
,
and
moued
vnto
great
compassion
,
to
vnderstande
that
for
the
sinne
of
one
woman
there
should
come
so
much
harme
and
damag●
vnto
that
Iland
.
He
saw
likewise
that
it
was
replenished
with
many
Trées
full
of
diuers
so●ts
of
fruite
,
as
well
for
the
Summer
as
for
the
Winter
,
and
such
as
he
might
verie
wel
sustaine
his
life
,
without
dying
desperately
for
hunger
.
So
when
that
he
had
very
well
perused
all
these
things
,
he
receiued
great
contentment
,
for
that
the
place
seemed
vnto
him
verie
necessarie
and
aparant
for
him
to
liue
out
of
the
world
,
and
there
to
ende
his
daies
,
wherefore
he
dyd
determine
to
remaine
there
,
and
for
the
defence
of
raine
and
stormes
,
he
thought
it
good
to
make
himselfe
a
cottage
for
his
continuall
habitation
,
to
kéepe
him selfe
from
the
furie
thereof
,
and
that
farther
within
the
Ilande
,
for
that
the
stinke
and
euill
sauour
of
the
dead
Fauno
should
not
trouble
him
,
but
first
before
he
would
begin
to
put
this
in
prose
,
he
thought
it
good
to
leaue
some
remembrance
,
where
the
infernall
Fauno
was
slaine
,
for
that
if
it
should
so
fall
out
,
in
time
to
come
,
the
Iland
to
be
peopled
againe
,
the
inhabitants
thereof
might
know
and
vnderstand
who
had
slaine
him
,
and
as
a
man
that
as
then
had
no
more
neede
nor
necessitie
of
his
armour
,
he
layde
them
downe
by
the
Fauno
,
vpon
a
great
stone
,
wherevpon
he
wrote
with
the
point
of
his
dagger
in
Gréeke
,
these
wordes
following
.
This
is
the
diuilish
and
infernall
Fauno
,
the
diuells
sonne
,
and
begotten
on
A●timaga
,
and
slaine
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
Prince
of
Grecia
,
who
being
determined
to
leaue
the
world
,
would
ende
his
daies
in
this
solita●ie
Ilande
:
this
was
his
armour
,
the
which
he
doth
leaue
heare
in
signe
and
token
that
it
was
the
last
victorie
that
he
made
in
his
life
time
.
Then
when
that
this
was
done
▪
he
went
from
that
place
a
good
mile
farther
,
and
came
where
as
he
founde
a
verie
faire
and
fresh
fountaine
vnder
the
side
of
a
little
groue
,
ful
〈◊〉
h●ge
and
great
Trées
,
the
which
place
séemed
verie
good
and
conuenient
for
his
determined
purpose
,
he
staied
there
,
and
after
that
he
had
dronk
of
the
water
of
that
fountaine
,
the
which
was
very
cleane
and
cleare
,
he
determined
vnder
those
trées
to
make
himselfe
a
little
cottage
of
●oghes
,
wherin
he
might
harbour
himselfe
at
such
time
as
it
was
fowle
and
contagious
wether
.
Then
he
●ore
and
rent
from
those
trées
,
braunches
and
boughes
,
wherewith
he
made
him
a
little
cottage
,
greatly
vnto
his
contentment
,
and
at
the
entrie
thereof
he
set
a
crosse
so
high
as
himselfe
,
and
knéeling
downe
before
it
,
he
lift
vp
the
eyes
of
his
heart
vnto
heauen
and
saide
as
followeth
.
O
Lord
the
creator
and
maker
of
all
things
,
thou
which
dost
permit
to
be
crucified
vpon
a
crosse
(
as
this
is
)
for
to
redéeme
all
humaine
linage
,
here
I
doe
desire
thée
to
giue
vnto
mée
force
and
strength
to
suffer
with
pacience
here
to
ende
my
daies
,
in
thy
holy
seruice
,
and
to
be
heartelie
sorie
for
my
sinnes
:
euen
as
thou
diddest
giue
vnto
those
holie
Fathers
,
(
who
for
to
cléere
themselues
from
the
craftes
and
deceites
of
this
wicked
worlde
)
went
and
liued
in
the
deserts
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
and
other
lyke
,
(
not
without
shedding
of
many
teares
)
he
remained
on
his
knées
a
good
while
prostrating
himselfe
on
the
ground
.
In
this
sort
liued
this
worthie
knight
many
daies
,
not
rating
anie
other
thing
but
wilde
fruites
,
and
dronke
of
the
water
of
that
fountaine
,
because
he
would
not
desperatelie
destroy
himselfe
:
he
sustained
himselfe
with
such
hearbes
and
fruites
,
as
were
in
the
Iland
,
which
was
in
so
strange
and
straight
maner
,
that
if
the
zeale
which
moued
him
therevnto
,
had
bene
coress●ondent
vnto
his
sufferance
,
his
pacience
might
haue
bene
accounted
equall
vnto
the
ly●e
of
saints
.
But
oh
Lord
,
how
mightie
is
thy
force
,
for
that
vnto
him
that
dyd
tame
the
most
strong
&
furious
beastes
that
was
to
be
found
vpon
the
earth
,
and
he
that
did
abate
the
courage
and
pride
of
the
most
valiantest
knightes
and
mightie
Giants
that
were
to
be
founde
in
all
the
world
,
neither
all
the
legions
of
internall
diuells
were
sufficient
to
abate

Chap.
16.
WIth
great
sorow
and
griefe
this
Historie
dyd
leaue
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
in
the
companie
of
Medea
,
daughter
vnto
Raiartes
,
by
whome
she
was
continuallie
required
of
loue
,
as
she
that
was
meruailous
faire
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
her
loue
was
the
more
feruent
and
kindled
in
her
,
till
such
time
as
the
Empresse
(
being
verie
desirous
to
leaue
her
companie
,
the
better
to
complaine
her selfe
)
put
her
out
of
all
doubt
and
declared
vnto
her
who
she
was
,
at
which
sodayne
and
strange
discouerie
,
Medea
was
greatly
discomforted
and
ashamed
,
and
after
certaine
dayes
that
she
there
remayned
,
in
the
ende
she
returned
into
her
owne
countrie
,
whereof
she
was
Empresse
.
〈…〉
Empresse
had
〈◊〉
in
the
Countrie
of
〈◊〉
certaine
daies
,
with
the
companie
of
her
damse●
,
〈◊〉
determined
to
returne
vnto
Constantinople
,
with
〈…〉
sort
of
armour
,
whereby
she
might
not
bée
〈…〉
Lirgandeo
saith
,
that
he
knew
not
whether
it
was
to
returne
to
make
battaile
againe
with
her
knight
,
it
was
forced
by
loue
that
she
bare
vnto
him
,
as
it
is
a
thing
naturall
amongst
louers
,
that
when
they
haue
an
occasion
more
to
hate
than
otherwise
,
then
doth
loue
more
increase
in
them
,
and
although
she
desired
to
haue
and
take
,
reuengement
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
yet
it
was
vnto
her
a
great
griefe
to
be
absent
from
h●m
one
houre
:
the
damsells
〈◊〉
the
Empresse
carried
alwaies
with
them
choise
of
armour
and
apparell
,
so
leauing
that
armour
which
shée
had
,
she
armed
her selfe
all
in
Azure
full
of
flowers
of
gold
,
and
tooke
her
waie
towards
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
&
when
she
came
nigh
vnto
the
same
,
she
was
greatlie
amazed
to
sée
all
the
field
thereof
round
about
peopled
full
of
armed
knights
,
and
amongst
them
seemed
to
bée
a
great
preparation
for
the
warres
,
&
furniture
for
a
great
armie
:
the
occasion
of
all
this
was
,
by
reason
that
the
letters
of
aduise
were
come
from
the
wise
Li●gandeo
,
giuing
to
vnderstand
of
the
comming
of
the
Tartarians
,
into
Grecia
,
the
Emperour
commaunded
to
ioyne
together
all
knights
possible
at
that
present
,
and
at
such
time
as
the
Empresse
brew
nigh
vnto
them
,
the
Emperour
and
Rosicleer
,
with
all
such
worthie
Pri●ces
and
knights
as
were
at
that
present
in
the
Court
,
were
assembled
together
in
the
field
,
mustering
of
such
knights
as
were
th●r
prese●●
,
which
were
a
great
companie
in
numb●r
,
verie
gallant
,
stout
,
and
braue
,
and
comming
nigh
vnto
them
,
she
new
the
Emperour
&
those
that
were
with
him
,
but
she
sawe
not
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
their
companie
,
whereat
●he
meruailed
greatlie
,
and
being
ignorant
of
the
occasion
of
that
great
preparation
,
she
commaunded
one
of
her
damsels
to
goe
and
to
informe
her selfe
of
one
of
those
〈…〉
where-ore
that
mustering
was
,
and
whether
the
knight
of
the
Sun
were
in
the
Court
or
not
.
In
the
meane
space
that
her
damsell
went
to
informe
her selfe
,
she
put
her selfe
a
horsebacke
in
close
maner
vnder
the
shadow
of
a
great
and
mightie
Pine
tree
,
which
was
nigh
vnto
the
armie
,
and
for
that
she
was
of
a
gallant
proporcion
and
well
armed
,
the
Emperour
and
such
as
were
with
him
,
séeing
her
,
iudged
her
to
be
one
of
the
best
armed
and
well
proporcioned
knights
that
euer
they
had
séene
.
So
her
damsel
put
her selfe
amongst
those
knights
,
and
calling
one
a
side
,
(
he
which
she
thought
most
fittest
for
her
purpose
)
the
demau●ded
of
him
that
which
her
Ladie
had
commaunded
her
.
Then
the
knight
perceiuing
that
the
was
sent
from
that
gallant
knight
(
who
was
a
my●our
vnto
all
the
companie
to
looke
on
)
and
he
verie
desirous
to
show
him
that
courtesie
,
saide
as
followeth
.
YOu
shall
vnderstand
faire
Damsell
,
that
the
occasion
wherefore
our
Emperour
and
Lord
doeth
ioyne
together
all
this
gallant
companie
of
knights
,
is
for
that
he
doth
looke
dayly
for
the
greatest
warre
that
eu●r
was
made
against
Christians
,
for
that
fewe
daies
past
he
was
giuen
to
vnderstand
,
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
father
vnto
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
doth
come
against
him
,
and
bringeth
with
him
almost
all
the
Pagans
of
Asia
the
great
,
and
almost
all
the
nations
of
the
Orientall
Ilands
,
that
are
in
the
Ocean
,
the
occasion
that
moued
the
Emperour
Alicandro
to
make
this
warre
against
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
(
as
we
all
doe
wel
vnderstand
)
hath
bene
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
at
such
time
as
he
went
with
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
vnto
the
Gran
Tartarin
,
at
his
comming
thether
,
the
Emperour
and
kings
of
his
estate
,
whan
they
vnderstoode
that
he
had
ouercome
the
Prince
Meridian
,
were
willing
that
he
should
marrie
with
her
,
as
it
was
ordained
in
their
demaund
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
not
béeing
willing
therevnto
,
at
such
time
as
they
thought
the
marriage
and
all
thinges
to
be
fullie
concluded
without
anie
interruption
.
Then
he
secretlie
departed
in
the
night
from
the
court
,
without
taking
any
leaue
of
the
Emperour
,
or
giuing
anye
〈…〉
thereof
:
what
for
this
anger
,
as
also
for
the
great
desier
that
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
hath
to
returne
into
Grecia
,
by
her
meanes
they
wer
indused
,
so
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
is
fullie
determined
to
make
this
warre
,
with
p●etence
to
destroye
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
to
crowne
the
princesse
Lindab●ides
,
for
Empresse
of
Grecia
.
This
is
the
aunswere
of
that
you
asked
mee
,
touching
the
first
,
and
to
the
other
concerning
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
you
shall
vnderstand
that
he
hath
not
bene
in
this
court
manie
dayes
since
,
for
after
that
hée
had
made
battaile
with
a
strange
knight
that
came
hether
in
the
companie
of
Medea
,
he
departed
and
was
neuer
séene
sinc●
,
neither
is
there
any
newes
of
him
,
for
the
which
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
his
brother
and
friends
,
are
verie
heauie
and
sorowfull
.
Herewith
he
concluded
,
and
the
Damsell
being
certified
of
her
demaund
,
did
gratifie
him
with
thank●s
for
the
same
and
returned
vnto
her
ladie
and
mistresse
,
vnto
whome
she
declared
all
that
which
the
knight
had
tolde
her
,
she
vnderstanding
the
same
and
considering
well
thereof
,
in
her
life
time
before
she
neuer
felt
her selfe
so
troubled
&
in
so
great
confusion
,
for
that
before
she
was
crediblye
informed
how
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
marryed
vnto
the
Princesse
L●ndabrides
,
and
now
to
finde
it
contrarie
,
by
that
which
at
the
present
she
heard
,
she
knew
not
what
to
saye
nor
what
to
doe
,
neither
which
of
these
contraries
she
might
beléeue
,
and
being
dobtfull
to
giue
credit
vnto
that
which
the
knight
had
told
vnto
her
Damsel
,
neither
could
she
put
her selfe
in
any
securitie
of
the
thing
that
she
so
much
desired
,
the
better
her selfe
,
she
commaunded
her
damsell
to
go●
vnto
Rosicleer
,
and
in
her
part
,
as
a
strange
knight
that
was
verie
desirous
to
serue
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
to
request
him
to
giue
her
to
vnderstand
,
the
occasion
wherefore
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
doth
come
(
as
they
saye
)
againste
Grecia
,
and
the
trueth
if
they
doe
abyde
the
comming
of
all
these
Pagan
enimies
aforesaide
.
So
the
damsell
departed
with
this
demaund
vnto
Rosicleer
,
and
by
reason
that
hée
was
meruailouslie
vertuous
,
and
full
of
curtesie
and
good
manners
,
he
receiued
the
Damsell
,
and
himselfe
gaue
the
answere
,
wholie
in
effect
as
the
knight
before
had
〈◊〉
sent
her
word
,
that
whensoeuer
it
was
his
pleasure
to
come
and
offer
himselfe
vnto
them
,
that
then
the
Emperor
his
father
and
he
would
receiue
him
to
their
friend
.
Therewith
the
damsell
doing
her
dutie
with
reuerence
,
departed
from
him
▪
and
comming
vnto
the
Emp●esse
,
declared
vnto
her
all
that
which
Rosicleer
had
●olde
her
,
the
which
lacked
nothing
vnto
the
which
the
other
knight
had
aduertised
her
.
But
when
that
the
Princesse
vnderstood
that
the
warres
with
the
Emperour
〈◊〉
was
certain
,
&
of
truth
,
she
knew
not
what
to
saie
nor
to
doe
in
●
thing
so
confused
and
incertaine
as
that
was
,
for
that
one
waie
she
beléeued
to
be
true
that
which
her
damsell●
Arcania
had
told
her
,
and
another
wai●
it
séemed
verie
strange
and
contrarie
,
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
shoulde
come
into
Grecia
with
determined
wars
and
displaied
Ensignes
,
if
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
were
married
vnto
his
daughter
,
and
as
she
was
in
this
great
doubt
and
confusion
,
shée
thought
vpon
the
wordes
that
Arcania
had
tolde
her
at
her
returne
from
Tartaria
,
and
did
argue
▪
within
her selfe
,
finding
great
diuersitie
and
doubtfull
vnderstanding
,
for
that
sometime
it
séemed
that
shée
had
tolde
her
that
she
left
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
married
vnto
the
Princesse
,
and
straight
wayes
a
contrarie
opinion
,
that
shée
sayd
that
she
left
him
at
the
point
to
bee
married
,
and
béeing
so
,
it
might
bée
that
it
was
left
vndone
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
would
not
consent
therevnto
,
and
this
might
bée
a
gr●at
occasion
that
the
Princesse
Lyndab●ides
dyd
procure
and
induce
her
Father
therevnto
,
oneli●
for
that
she
would
re●ourne
againe
into
Grecia
.
And
béeing
not
fullie
certefied●
of
the
greate
doubtfulnesse
that
shee
had
in
either
of
these
contraries
,
shée
thought
it
th●
best
remedie
for
her
,
(
for
that
Arcania
as
then
remained
in
Trapisonda
(
for
to
returne
thether
forthwith
,
&
ther
to
certefie
her selfe
throughly
of
al
that
she
had
séene
passe
in
the
gran
Tartaria
,
&
in
what
order
and
point
;
she
had
left
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
this
thought
was
not
〈◊〉
considered
of
,
but
straight
waies
she
put
it
in
vre
,
and
departed
from
thence
,
and
tooke
her
iourney
towards
●ropisionda
,
&
comming
〈…〉
sea
side
,
she
with
her
Damsells
embarked
themselues
in
a
good
shippe
,
and
made
saile
towards
her
owne
Empire
,
not
without
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
to
sée
that
her
knight
was
departed
f●om
the
court
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
&
there
was
no
newes
heard
of
him
since
the
time
that
he
made
the
battaile
with
her
,
which
gaue
her
to
vnderstande
that
that
should
be
the
●ust
occasion
of
his
departing
,
as
one
desperate
,
for
that
vnknowne
he
made
that
combat
,
he
would
departe
thether
whereas
they
should
neuer
th●re
heare
any
newes
of
him
,
at
this
time
was
abated
the
great
anger
that
she
had
against
him
,
and
her selfe
was
determined
to
goe
and
séeke
him
,
if
that
her
damsell
.
Arcania
did
not
fullie
satisfie
her
of
that
confused
hope
that
she
had
.
With
these
&
other
like
thoughts
they
sayled
foure
daies
with
faire
winde
and
wether
,
in
the
ende
whereof
there
arose
a
g●eat
and
furious
tempest
,
by
〈◊〉
whereof
the
good
ship
was
put
in
great
hazard
to
be
lost
,
if
God
for
his
infinit
mercie
and
goodnesse
had
not
deliuered
thei●
,
and
hauing
no
gouernement
in
the
shippe
by
for●e
of
that
great
tempest
,
they
were
driuen
to
sea
,
a
great
〈◊〉
distant
from
the
place
,
whereas
they
desired
to
goe
,
and
the
storme
endured
thrée
daies
and
thrée
nights
without
any
〈◊〉
,
but
caùsed
the
seas
to
arise
vp
in
so
furious
sort
,
that
the
marriners
could
doe
no
good
therein
,
but
yéelded
themselues
and
the
shippe
vnto
the
mercie
of
the
wyndes
,
seas
,
and
fortune
,
who
in
the
ende
,
séemed
to
shew
her selfe
fauourable
.
The
fourth
day
théy
were
launched
into
the
great
and
sure
port
of
the
kingedome
of
〈◊〉
,
wherein
they
saw
other
two
shippes
that
were
driuon
th●ther
by
force
on
the
same
storme
,
and
by
the
〈◊〉
of
the
sanguine
water
,
she
saw
the
conclusion
of
a
great
battaile
that
was
béetwixt
the
people
of
the
saide
two
shippes
,
likewise
she
sawe
in
the
shippes
that
there
was
dead
knights
,
and
heard
the
shrikes
and
〈…〉
of
Ladies
and
Damsels
:
the
which
being
heard
by
Claridiana
,
she
commaunded
her
ship
to
be
grapled
vnto
those
two
,
where
by
she
might
be
fullie
certified
what
it
should
be
,
and
she
found
that
there
was
a
knight
of
a
verie
bigge
bodie
and
well
armed
,
and
in
his
companie
other
tenne
which
séemed
to
be
his
vassalls
&
subiects
,
that
came
in
one
of
the
two
shippes
,
and
by
force
made
a
conquest
of
the
other
shippe
,
&
slew
diuers
that
came
therin
,
and
toke
prisoner
the
principal
that
was
amongst
them
,
with
a
very
faire
damsell
,
&
other
thrée
ladies
that
were
in
her
companie
,
whome
they
had
in
their
armes
for
to
put
them
into
their
owne
shippe
.
And
these
ladies
séeing
themselues
to
be
carryed
in
that
forcible
sort
,
began
to
giue
great
shrikes
and
cryes
,
lamenting
in
such
sort
,
shedding
manie
teares
,
that
it
moued
the
Princesse
Claridiana
vnto
great
compassion
.
And
as
she
would
haue
demanded
of
that
bigge
knight
(
who
séemed
to
be
the
chiefest
amongst
them
)
what
should
be
the
occasion
of
that
their
great
lamentation
,
he
straight
waies
came
against
her
,
putting
him
to
the
shippes
side
and
willed
her
to
yelde
her selfe
prisoner
:
soft
said
the
,
we
are
not
yet
come
vnto
that
,
but
tell
mée
wherefore
dost
thou
apprehend
them
,
as
thy
prisoners
.
Then
the
great
knight
aunswered
,
with
great
wrath
and
anger
,
the
mightie
Cleonidas
should
séeme
to
haue
great
space
&
leasure
,
if
that
at
euery
ones
demaund
he
should
staye
for
to
giue
him
an
accompt
wherefore
he
doth
apprehend
and
take
his
pray
.
Thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
I
am
a
sea
●ouer
,
and
I
neuer
as
yet
met
with
shippe
that
I
could
ouercome
,
but
I
did
take
it
,
and
dyd
apprehend
all
that
were
therein
,
and
if
they
be
Christians
,
I
doe
sell
them
vnto
the
Pagans
,
and
make
them
slaues
,
and
if
they
be
Pagans
,
I
doe
sell
them
vnto
the
Christians
&
make
them
likewise
slaues
,
so
that
I
am
friend
to
none
of
them
both
,
and
in
all
the
ports
and
hauens
of
the
Mediterraneo
sea
,
they
are
in
confederasie
,
league
,
and
friendship
with
mée
,
and
doe
suffer
mée
in
great
quietnesse
to
make
sale
and
the
best
of
my
marchandise
.
And
I
doe
tell
thée
,
that
I
doe
more
exteme
and
haue
in
greater
price
,
this
damsell
which
this
daye
I
haue
taken
,
then
any
prise
that
euer
I
made
in
all
the
dayes
of
my
life
,
for
that
I
hope
to
make
a
present
of
her
vnto
a
mightie
pagan
Lord
,
who
will
giue
me
for
her
,
all
that
euer
I
wil
demaund
.
And
now
séeing
I
haue
told
thée
that
which
thou
diddest
request
to
know
,
doe
now
out
of
hand
that
which
is
my
pleasure
,
for
that
the
ritchnesse
of
thy
armour
,
and
thy
gentle
disposition
,
doth
giue
mée
to
vnderstande
,
that
thou
wilt
be
vnto
mée
as
precious
a
prisoner
,
as
euer
came
to
mée
since
I
vsed
the
sea
.
You
shal
vnderstand
that
all
was
trueth
which
in
this
Historie
hath
bene
declared
,
for
that
this
●ouer
was
called
Cleonidas
,
and
with
great
reason
he
tooke
to
himselfe
this
name
,
for
that
he
was
no
lesse
a
rouer
then
that
famous
Cleonidas
,
which
was
in
the
time
of
king
Tolomeo
,
who
did
take
the
king
,
and
commaunded
him
to
be
glystred
or
boxed
with
bagges
of
scalding
oyle
,
for
that
he
dyd
the
lyke
vnto
all
such
as
he
dyd
take
.
This
was
called
the
second
Cleonidas
,
he
continued
more
then
fiftene
yéeres
vpon
the
Seas
,
and
neuer
went
a
land
,
but
tooke
and
robbed
all
that
euer
he
met
with
all
,
and
vsed
no
other
office
but
as
afore
is
declared
.
He
went
not
alone
with
one
shippe
as
he
was
at
that
present
,
but
alwaies
had
with
him
more
then
twentie
,
that
were
verie
good
,
and
fortified
with
all
necessaries
and
people
,
but
by
fortune
of
a
great
tempest
,
they
were
scattered
abroade
,
and
seperated
the
one
from
the
other
into
diuers
parts
,
and
his
ship
alone
chaunced
into
that
porte
,
whereas
he
met
with
the
other
shippe
,
and
made
his
prise
,
as
before
hath
bene
tolde
vnto
you
.
Then
Claridiana
,
when
she
heard
of
the
euill
lyfe
of
this
rouer
,
and
how
without
all
shame
he
did
boast
and
aduance
him selfe
of
his
ill
doing
,
she
was
very
glad
and
ioyfull
for
that
it
was
her
fortune
to
come
thether
at
that
time
,
and
drawing
out
her
sword
,
she
sayde
these
words
following
.
CALL
to
remembraunce
Cleonides
,
that
an
other
of
thy
name
,
and
aunswerable
vnto
thy
conditions
,
who
had
a
greater
power
at
the
Sea
then
thou
hast
,
with
a
cruell
and
desperate
death
he
receiued
his
paiment
a
lande
for
all
his
euill
déedes
done
:
likewise
that
Dionides
who
was
also
a
rouer
in
the
Leuant
seas
,
&
of
great
power
in
the
time
of
Alexander
and
Darius
,
yet
in
the
ende
,
was
taken
prisoner
,
and
punished
for
his
euill
deedes
by
Alexander
.
Also
E●tilcon
was
a
famous
rouer
,
yet
was
he
taken
and
put
to
death
by
king
Demetrius
.
But
yet
more
famous
was
that
valiant
and
worthie
Febatio
,
who
with
one
hundreth
Gallies
and
thirtie
great
shippes
,
was
serued
by
all
the
kings
of
the
Leuant
,
and
was
feared
of
all
them
that
dwelt
towards
the
Ponients
,
yet
in
the
ende
he
was
taken
prisoner
by
king
Cirus
,
and
in
one
houre
he
had
his
reward
for
all
the
euills
that
he
had
done
in
all
his
time
.
The
rouer
Militas
,
with
Curreo
,
which
were
both
in
the
time
of
the
first
Dionisius
the
Siracusian
,
the
one
destroyed
Sicilia
,
and
th●
other
did
rob
&
spoyle
all
Asia
,
but
after
that
they
had
vsed
this
trade
the
space
of
xxx
.
yéeres
by
sea
,
in
the
end
,
the
rouer
Militas
was
taken
prisoner
by
them
of
the
Rodes
,
and
when
that
he
was
brought
into
the
place
of
execution
,
he
did
aduaunce
and
reioyce
in
himselfe
,
for
that
with
his
owne
proper
hands
,
he
hadde
cut
of
the
heads
of
fiue
hundreth
men
,
and
threw
fortie
into
the
Sea
,
and
thirtie
thousande
were
slaine
in
battaile
with
his
Galli●s
,
and
in
the
ende
,
was
executed
by
them
of
the
Rodes
,
according
vnto
his
deserts
.
This
and
many
other
moe
,
which
I
could
rehearse
,
were
famous
rouers
,
yet
when
their
hou●e
was
come
of
their
sorowfull
destinie
,
they
were
rewarded
for
their
sinne
and
wickednesse
,
and
neuer
inioyed
the
ritches
that
they
had
stollen
.
Therefore
I
doe
beleeue
,
Cleonidas
,
that
thou
in
all
thy
actions
,
being
so
conformable
,
that
the
Iustice
which
happened
vnto
them
,
cannot
be
lacking
vnto
thée
.
Consider
from
whence
thou
commest
,
and
what
thou
hast
bene
,
and
then
I
hope
in
God
that
thou
wilt
leaue
of
to
be
a
rouer
,
or
else
thou
wilt
goe
to
receiue
the
reward
of
all
the
harmes
which
thou
hast
done
in
this
world
,
vnto
the
diuel
of
hell
,
who
is
author
and
guide
of
such
as
thou
art
.
Then
Cl●onidas
hearing
the
princes
Cla●idiana
vtter
these
wordes
with
so
great
boldnesse
and
courage
,
burst
out
in
a
great
laughter
and
saide
,
Now
of
my
faith
knight
,
I
tell
thée
,
that
I
neuer
knew
a
more
foolish
man
then
thou
arte
,
that
in
this
sort
doest
threaten
Cleonidas
,
and
telleth
him
Histories
of
Rouers
,
as
though
that
he
were
lesse
in
force
and
strength
then
Dionedes
,
and
thy selfe
of
more
power
then
euer
was
Alexander
.
Stay
a
while
,
and
I
will
make
thée
to
:
vnderstand
and
know
who
I
am
,
and
likewise
will
teach
thée
to
know
to
whome
thou
speakest
:
and
in
saying
these
words
,
he
drew
out
his
swoord
,
&
went
against
Claridiana
,
then
there
began
betwéene
them
a
very
fierce
&
cruel
battaile
,
&
they
layed
the
one
vpon
the
other
such
strong
&
heauie
blowes
,
that
in
short
space
their
shields
were
hewed
&
broken
in
péeces
,
&
all
those
that
beheld
them
,
were
greatly
amazed
,
at
their
great
force
&
stoutnesse
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
them
that
they
were
two
of
the
brauest
&
strongest
knights
that
euer
before
they
had
séene
.
This
battaile
was
so
rigorous
,
that
in
a
short
space
Cleonides
began
to
féele
&
know
the
high
bountie
of
his
aduersarie
,
as
he
that
neuer
in
all
his
life
,
met
with
anie
that
did
charge
him
so
strongly
,
neither
brought
him
into
the
like
extremitie
,
and
the
more
he
strined
against
her
,
the
more
he
felte
the
waight
and
furie
of
her
blowes
.
This
battaile
endured
betwixte
them
more
then
a
whole
houre
from
the
beginning
,
at
which
time
the
royall
Empresse
Claridiana
was
more
fresher
&
fought
more
stronger
then
at
the
beginning
,
and
Cleonidas
began
to
wax
werie
and
faint
,
and
would
very
faine
haue
had
the
ayde
&
succour
of
his
knighte
:
but
the
Empresse
perceiuing
it
,
fearing
all
that
might
happen
,
did
so
inforce
her selfe
,
that
striking
thrée
mightie
blowes
at
him
on
his
healme
,
all
in
one
place
,
in
great
hast
the
one
after
the
other
,
she
made
him
to
fall
forward
vpon
his
hands
to
the
ground
,
and
before
that
he
had
any
time
to
recouer
himselfe
againe
,
she
stroke
him
so
terrible
a
blow
betwéene
the
gorget
and
his
helme
,
that
she
stroke
&
cut
of
his
head
cleane
from
the
bodie
,
so
that
they
fell
bo●h
together
downe
to
the
ground
.
Then
the
knights
of
Cleonidas
,
which
were
to
the
number
of
ten
,
when
they
sawe
their
Captaine
headlesse
,
they
altogether
assaulted
Claridiana
,
charging
her
with
thicke
and
strong
blowes
,
but
she
receiued
them
in
so
gallant
and
valiant
sort
,
that
in
a
short
space
she
slew
●iue
of
them
,
and
the
other
séeing
her
mortall
blowes
dyd
yéeld
themselues
,
and
craued
pardon
for
their
liues
.
In
this
sort
did
this
famous
rouer
end
his
daies
,
God
permitting
that
he
should
be
without
the
aide
and
succour
of
the
rest
of
th●
Nauie
for
that
hée
whom
all
the
coasts
of
the
sea
feared
,
shuld
receiue
his
death
and
be
slaine
by
the
handes
of
a
Damsell
.
Thus
he
being
dead
and
his
knightes
yéelded
,
straight
waies
Claridiana
commaunded
to
be
set
at
libertie
all
those
prisoners
that
hée
had
taken
,
the
which
being
done
,
there
came
before
her
presenting
themselues
a
damsel
who
was
very
faire
,
&
brought
by
a
principall
knight
that
was
taken
prisoner
at
that
instant
by
Cleonidas
,
and
both
of
them
gaue
her
great
thankes
for
the
worthinesse
the
vsed
in
●laying
of
their
enimie
,
and
meruailed
verie
much
at
her
great
bountie
and
valiantnes
.
The
Empresse
receiued
them
verie
curteouslie
,
and
asked
of
them
who
they
were
,
and
of
what
Countrie
?
Wherevnto
the
damsell
answered
,
saying
.
You
shall
vnderstand
(
worthie
knight
)
that
this
Knight
and
I
are
both
of
the
confines
of
Sarmasia
,
and
I
am
Ladie
ouer
sixe
Castles
of
mine
owne
the
which
be
verie
strong
and
good
,
all
scituated
in
one
great
and
fresh
valley
,
and
this
knight
is
Lord
ouer
other
thrée
Castles
,
round
about
mine
,
and
being
ouercome
with
my
beautie
,
fell
in
loue
with
mée
,
and
would
haue
taken
me
for
his
wife
,
I
liked
wel
of
him
,
but
there
was
one
thing
that
did
disturbe
me
,
and
hindered
the
accomplishing
of
his
desire
,
which
was
,
that
I
had
some
suspition
that
he
bare
great
good
wil
and
loue
vnto
a
Damsell
that
is
verie
faire
,
and
Ladie
ouer
another
little
valley
,
which
is
verie
faire
and
pleasant
,
and
till
such
time
as
I
was
fullie
certefied
of
this
doubt
,
I
wold
neuer
consent
vnto
his
request
,
for
the
which
,
séeing
that
there
was
no
order
howe
and
which
waie
I
might
entirelie
satis●●te
my selfe
.
There
was
a
conclusion
conserted
betwixt
vs
both
,
that
we
should
goe
together
into
the
kingdome
of
Rusia
,
vnto
the
caue
of
the
wise
Artidon
,
who
doth
answere
a
full
conclusion
vnto
all
that
is
demanded
of
him
,
and
doth
knowe
the
secret
of
all
heartes
,
and
what
they
doe
desire
,
although
they
doe
dissemble
and
kéepe
it
neuer
so
secret
.
So
this
séeming
vnto
vs
the
best
remedie
,
wée
straight
waies
gaue
order
for
the
same
,
the
which
being
in
a
readinesse
,
wée
embarked
our selues
in
this
shippe
,
and
departed
,
bringing
with
vs
to
the
number
of
twelue
knightes
to
bears
vs
companie
,
and
béeing
by
fortune
put
into
this
port
,
our
mishappe
woulde
that
wée
shoulde
méete
with
this
rouer
Cleonidas
,
who
straight
waies
with
his
knights
dyd
ioyne
in
battaile
with
vs
,
and
hauing
slaine
the
most
part
of
those
that
came
with
vs
,
this
knight
béeing
so
sore
oppressed
with
them
,
in
the
end
was
taken
prisoner
with
mée
and
these
women
that
came
with
mée
,
according
as
you
Sir
knight
,
dyd
finde
vs
.
This
is
all
that
I
can
declare
for
aunswere
vnto
your
demaund
,
and
the
occasion
wherefore
wée
departed
out
of
our
Countrie
.
The
Empresse
Claridiana
reioyced
verie
much
at
the
good
discourse
of
the
damsell
,
and
meruailed
not
a
little
of
that
which
she
heard
told
of
the
caue
of
Artidon
,
and
as
one
that
desired
no
other
thing
,
to
the
intent
she
might
bée
fullie
certefied
of
her
knight
,
shée
requested
the
Ladie
once
agayne
to
certefie
her
of
that
caue
,
and
to
giue
her
to
vnderstande
,
what
is
the
reason
that
they
that
entered
in
shoulde
knowe
all
that
they
demaunded
.
Then
Elisea
,
(
for
so
the
Damsell
was
called
)
who
knew
verie
well
the
whole
aduenture
of
that
caue
,
declared
it
vnto
her
peticularlie
in
such
order
as
it
was
and
passed
,
saying
that
the
sayde
Artidon
was
th●
wisest
that
was
in
all
his
time
,
and
hetherto
could
neuer
bée
found
the
like
,
he
did
inchaunt
that
caue
in
such
sort
,
that
all
persons
may
knowe
what
they
will
desire
,
and
this
was
of
a
verie
truth
,
for
that
shée
hath
béene
certefied
by
them
that
haue
béene
at
the
same
place
,
and
there
made
the
proofe
.
When
that
Claridiana
vnderstoode
verie
well
the
aduenture
of
the
caue
,
she
straight
waies
had
a
great
desire
to
goe
thether
,
as
well
to
sée
a
thing
of
so
greate
meruaile
,
as
also
for
that
it
séemed
that
by
that
meanes
she
might
come
vnto
the
knowledge
of
that
she
desired
so
much
to
knowe
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
And
so
she
said
vnto
the
damsell
and
vnto
the
knight
,
that
she
would
goe
and
beare
them
companie
,
onelie
for
to
sée
that
meruailous
caue
of
Artidon
,
wherat
they

IN
all
this
time
was
not
idle
the
great
and
mightie
Emperour
Alycandro
,
for
that
after
he
had
concluded
vpon
the
vo●age
into
Grecia
,
he
made
so
great
spéed
in
the
ioyning
and
gathering
together
of
his
people
,
that
in
a
short
time
all
his
Captaines
had
in
a
readinesse
what
hée
shoulde
haue
on
his
charge
.
Likewise
such
kinges
as
were
his
subiectes
hauing
the
charge
for
to
ioyne
and
gather
together
in
their
kingdomes
,
all
the
people
that
possible
they
coulde
,
so
that
they
obserued
the
time
appointed
,
and
met
in
the
kingdome
of
Phrigia
,
whereas
is
the
great
and
mightie
Port
of
Tenedon
.
The
number
of
people
were
infinit
that
were
ther●
ioyned
together
of
diuerse
nations
,
so
contrarie
the
one
to
the
other
,
that
it
séemed
all
the
people
in
the
whole
world
to
be
there
assembled
,
and
if
euerie
Nation
had
not
ben
diuided
and
separated
the
one
from
the
other
in
verie
good
order
,
they
should
not
the
one
haue
vnderstoode
the
other
,
which
would
haue
bene
the
occasion
of
a
great
confusion
amongest
them
,
by
reason
of
the
diuer●●tie
of
their
spéeches
.
And
for
that
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
would
declare
some
of
the
Nations
that
were
héere
met
in
this
mightie
armie
(
which
was
the
greatest
that
euer
was
made
in
all
the
world
)
as
he
that
knew
it
verie
wel
,
he
hath
named
some

and
faith
,
that

King

who

,
for

crowne
her

,
who
came

,
for

,
shée
might
with
great
facilitie
haue

,
for
that
in
those
Countries
they
doe
vse
them
for

,
as

they

Also

Also

Cambray
,
and
in

other
f●ue
kings
of
the

,
with
an
infinite
number
of
people
.
Also
the
King
of
the
Palibotos
,
who
(
as
it
is
affirmed
by
many
authors
and
writers
)
that
at
all
times
when

,
he
bringeth

and
the
Prince
of
Candoria
,
and
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
onelie
for
to
sée
himselfe
reuenged
on
the
Emperour
Alycandio
,
who
did
not
estéeme
,
but
set
at
naught
his
counsaile
,
and
also
of
Bramarant
,
who
slew
the
good
knight
Graco
his
sonne
.
To
conclude
,
there
came
these
&
many
other
nations
m●
,
which
he
let
passe
for
to
auold
●ediousness●
:
but
yet
one
thing
in
all
this
great
armie
,
is
as
greatly
to
be
lamented
as
noted
,
and
that
is
,
that
being
there
ioyned
together
more
than
the
third
part
of
all
the
world
,
yet
was
there
not
amongst
so
many
thousands
of
people
,
not
one
that
dyd
beléeue
in
God
,
nor
obserued
his
lawes
,
for
that
they
were
all
Gentiles
:
some
worshipped
Estatuas
,
&
other
some
the
stars
,
and
there
were
many
amongst
them
that
did
worship
verie
foule
beasts
,
and
for
their
principall
Gods
Oxen
and
dogs
,
a
very
lamentable
thing
,
yet
God
did
permit
&
suffer
it
for
the
great
and
abhominable
sinnes
of
man
.
Thus
when
that
all
these
people
were
in
a
readinesse
,
the
great
Nauie
wherein
they
shoulde
be
imbarked
was
assembled
altogether
,
the
which
fléet
was
so
great
,
that
it
couered
from
the
port
Tenedon
,
a
great
part
of
the
Egean
sea
,
and
all
the
Hellesponto
vnto
the
Proponte
,
and
it
was
not
to
bée
meruailed
,
that
so
great
and
mightie
a
fléete
of
shippes
should
be
ioyned
together
,
for
that
many
dayes
before
the
Emperour
Alicandro
caused
all
the
maisters
and
shipping
that
was
to
bée
found
in
all
the
coastes
of
Asia
to
bée
brought
thether
,
so
that
in
a
short
space
after
that
they
were
ioyned
together
,
this
mightie
Fléete
was
furnished
with
all
kindes
of
victualls
and
other
necessaries
,
abiding
winde
and
weather
for
to
depart
,
the
which
when
that
it
came
,
they
hoysed
their
sailes
,
and
began
to
take
their
iourney
towardes
Grecia
,
with
so
great
a
noise
of
diuerse
kindes
and
sortes
of
instruments
,
that
euerie
Nation
brought
,
that
it
was
a
wonder
to
heare
.
So
in
this
their
iourney
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
them
till
time
doth
serue
.
How
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
newes
of
the
comming
of
the
Pagans
,
and
how
he
made
all
things
in
readinesse
to
receiue
them
.
Chap.

AS
the
Emperour
Trebatio
was
aduertised
of
the
comming
of
the
Pagans
before
they
deuarted
out
of
their
Countrie
,
euen
so
had
h●
intelligence
by
certaine
scouts
&
messengers
,
at
such
time
as
they
were
ioyned
together
,
and
imbarked
in
the
Port
of
the
Tenedon
,
and
how
that
they
were
all
at
the
Sea
,
at
which
time
the
Emperour
was
readie
and
had
all
things
in
good
order
,
although
there
were
not
come
vnto
him
the
aide
and
help●
that
hee
looked
for
from
many
other
places
,
but
yet
of
his
owne
Countries
and
other
kingdomes
subiect
vnto
his
Empire
,
he
had
ioyned
together
one
hundreth
and
twentie
thousands
of
verie
good
knightes
and
chosen
men
,
for
besides
al
Grecia
,
ther
was
subiect
vnto
his
Empire
the
kingdome
of
Macedonia
,
and
the
kingdome
of
Epiro
,
and
the
Kingdome
of
Arcadia
,
all
Ci●ilia
was
his
and
Italia
,
Pannonia
,
Dalmasia
,
Dardania
,
Hungaria
,
Bitania
,
Sueuia
,
Saxonia
,
the
Ilandes
Ciclades
,
Creta
,
and
Rhodas
,
and
many
other
Ilandes
which
I
leaue
in
the
Tirreno
Sea
,
whose
gouernment
is
by
mightie
Princes
,
all
subiectes
vnto
the
Empire
,
and
are
at
the
commaundement
of
the
Emperour
at
all
times
when
that
hée
will
call
them
vnto
the
warres
.
So
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
was
in
a
readinesse
as
well
with
all
these
people
,
as
also
with
those
valiant
and
worthie
Knightes
which
were
at
that
time
in
the
Court
,
and
others
which
hée
looked
for
euerie
daie
,
and
although
hée
receiued
greate
sorrowe
and
griefe
for
the
absence
of
his
sonne
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
the
time
of
so
great
necessitie
,
and
for
that
it
was
long
since
his
departure
,
and
neuer
to
that
houre
hée
coulde
heare
anie
newes
of
him
,
his
heart
gaue
him
that
he
should
not
heare
of
him
so
quicklie
,
for
the
which
hée
was
verie
sadde
and
heauie
,
although
his
valiant
heart
and
courage
was
of
so
great
force
,
that
hée
dissembled
his
sorrowe
,
and
shewed
so
pleas●nt
and
ioyfull
a
countenaunce
vnto
all
people
,
that
of
none
it
was
perceiued
.
And
in
all
this
time
that
they
were
awaiting
the
comming
of
the
Pagans
,
hée
nor
his
sonne
Rosicleer
were
not
idle
,
but
alwayes
procured
to
fortifie
and
strenthen
the
Citie
with
armour
,
armes
,
and
victualles
,
in
amending
the
walles
,
and
trimming
the
gates
,
causing
the
fieldes
to
bee
made
cleane
▪
for
disturbing
of
themselues
.
So
that
this
good
Emperour
was
alwaies
occupied
,
and
readi●
at
all
pointes
,
as
he
who
looked
for
against
him
,
the
greatest
power
and
mightiest
armie
that
euer
was
séene
.
Héere
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
to
speake
of
him
,
and
returne
to
speake
of
the
greate
and
puisaunt
Fléete
that
was
ordaining
in
England
.
Of
the
great
and
mightie
armie
the
which
the
King
Oliuerio
ioyned
together
in
great
Britaine
,
for
to
passe
into
Grecia
.
Chap.
19.
NOw
saith
the
Hystorie
,
forsomuch
as
the
King
Oliuerio
had
verie
gréene
in
his
memorie
the
death
of
his
sonne
the
Prince
Edward
,
and
also
Don
Siluerio
the
robbing
and
taking
awaie
of
that
precious
and
faire
Princesse
Oliuia
,
the
which
hée
hoped
to
haue
to
wi●e
,
both
the
one
and
the
other
dyd
procure
to
make
reuenge
with
all
diligence
and
spéede
possible
.
So
that
Don
Siluerio
was
not
contented
with
such
〈◊〉
as
hée
coulde
take
out
of
the
Kingdome
of
Lusitania
,
but
also
hée
went
vnto
the
king
Zenodoro
,
who
was
at
that
present
king
and
Lorde
ouer
the
Godos
in
〈◊〉
,
(
who
were
the
richest
and
mightye●●
people
that
were
to
be
founde
in
all
Christendome
)
who
for
that
they
were
neighbours
and
friends
,
he
gaue
vnto
him
twentie
thousands
knights
all
very
good
and
well
armed
,
&
amongst
them
there
were
some
young
knights
of
the
Godos
,
who
for
to
show
foorth
the
worthinesse
of
their
persons
,
thought
i●
good
to
goe
foorth
in
these
warres
,
and
dyd
vse
themselues
very
valia●tly
,
as
shall
be
declared
vnto
you
in
the
processe
of
this
Historie
.
With
these
and
other
thirtie
thousand
more
that
Don
Silu●rio
brought
out
of
his
countrie
,
which
made
to
the
number
of
fiftie
thousand
very
good
souldiers
,
he
went
to
great
Britaine
▪
and
at
his
ariuall
the●her
,
the
king
Oliuerio
had
in
a
redinesse
other
fiftie
thousand
chosen
men
out
from
amongst
all
other
kingedomes
that
were
,
subiect
vnto
him
,
as
Scotland
,
Ireland
,
Wales
,
and
Cornewall
,
and
other
mightie
Lordes
of
〈◊〉
so
that
there
was
ioyned
together
in
great
Britaine
,
one
hundreth
thousand
fighting
men
.
Likewise
,
he
receiued
letters
from
the
king
of
Hungaria
,
that
he
had
in
a
redinesse
for
his
comming
,
fortie
thousand
knights
,
very
good
and
chosen
men
,
and
well
armed
in
all
points
:
this
he
had
besides
others
of
great
number
,
which
would
méete
him
by
the
way
,
the
which
did
giue
courage
&
stomacke
vnto
king
Oliuerio
,
not
alonely
to
assalt
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
but
also
to
conquer
a
great
part
of
the
world
.
So
making
his
fléet●
in
a
redinesse
,
and
all
other
necessaries
néedefull
for
such
an
enterprise
,
the
historie
doth
leue
them
,
and
retourne
vnto
the
Emperour
Alicandio
.
How
the
great
and
mightie
fleet
of
the
Emperor
Alicandro
came
vnto
the
port
of
Constantinople
,
and
forcing
to
goe
a
land
,
the
Pagans
had
with
the
Christians
great
and
rigorous
encounters
.

THE
time
is
come
that
the
great
and
puisant
fléete
of
the
barbarous
Nations
did
faile
and
nauigate
with
prosperous
winde
and
wether
,
to
wards
Grecia
,
with
so
great
〈◊〉
and
power
,
that
it
séemed
they
were
sufficient
for
to
conquere
the
whole
compasse
of
the
world
,
for
that
since
the
arte
of
Nauigation
was
firste
inuented
,
there
was
neuer
so
puisant
and
mightie
a
●léete
séene
on
the
seas
,
for
the
first
onset
of
them
did
couer
the
greatest
parte
of
the
Proponto
,
besides
these
that
remained
for
to
passe
the
straights
into
Egeo
.
Upon
a
daye
earely
in
the
morning
at
such
time
as
the
Sunne
began
to
spred
abroade
his
beames
vpon
the
earth
,
this
great
and
puisant
fléete
of
shippes
was
so
nighe
vnto
the
lande
,
that
they
were
discouered
by
them
of
Constantinople
,
that
dyd
abide
their
comming
,
who
were
not
a
little
amazed
when
that
they
saw
the
seas
couered
with
so
great
and
innumerable
companie
of
shippes
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
them
that
there
could
not
remaine
any
more
people
in
all
Asia
,
that
was
of
any
accompt
,
but
that
they
were
come
in
that
fléete
,
and
with
the
great
ioye
and
contentment
that
they
receiued
for
the
discouerie
of
the
lande
,
there
was
so
great
a
noyse
of
diuers
kindes
of
instruments
,
that
it
séemed
all
the
world
to
ioyne
together
,
as
at
the
daye
of
the
vniuersall
iudgement
.
They
that
came
formost
and
first
to
the
lande
,
was
the
king
of
Media
,
&
the
king
of
the
Partos
,
who
with
an
infinit
number
of
small
Pi●ises
and
boates
made
for
the
purpose
,
began
to
put
a
land
a
great
multitude
of
their
people
that
came
in
their
great
shippes
,
wherein
they
vsed
great
diligence
,
and
made
all
hast
possible
,
because
they
would
not
disturbe
,
but
giue
place
vnto
them
that
followed
after
.
Being
a
land
,
and
not
yet
put
in
good
order
,
neither
had
they
taken
a
shore
their
horse
and
munition
,
when
that
by
the
commaundement
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
there
issued
out
of
the
mightie
citie
of
Constantinople
the
prince
Rodomarte
,
armed
with
very
good
and
sure
armour
,
and
in
his
company
ten
thousand
knights
likewise
very
well
armed
,
and
went
towards
the
sea
side
,
who
with
so
valiant
courage
and
furious
force
,
did
put
themselues
in
the
middest
amongst
the
Pagans
that
were
landed
a
shore
,
that
they
flew
many
of
them
,
&
many
they
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
very
sore
wounded
,
so
that
there
were
very
fewe
of
them
but
were
sorie
,
that
they
were
the
first
that
came
a
lande
:
but
by
reason
that
they
were
verye
manie
in
number
and
continually
they
did
disembarke
more
and
more
,
they
returned
vpon
the
Gréekes
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
began
a
mightie
and
terrible
battaile
,
for
that
the
Medianes
and
Partes
,
were
stoute
and
valiant
men
,
and
were
all
well
armed
,
and
defended
well
themselues
.
Likewise
,
the
Greekes
were
all
chosen
knights
,
and
the
great
courage
the
which
they
receiued
by
the
hearing
of
their
valiant
captaine
,
dyd
cause
them
to
put
the
Pagans
in
so
great
extremitie
,
that
of
force
they
retyred
towards
the
sea
,
in
which
time
there
was
so
great
hast
in
that
mightie
fléete
,
for
to
disembarke
themselues
a
land
,
that
all
was
in
an
vprore
,
and
so
great
a
noyse
that
the
one
could
neither
heare
nor
vnderstand
the
other
,
till
such
time
as
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
(
with
great
anger
,
for
that
he
could
not
with
his
people
goe
and
ayde
them
that
were
a
land
)
commaunded
that
they
should
all
retire
back
,
and
that
euerie
nation
in
his
order
as
he
ariued
,
should
disembarke
themselues
,
the
wich
being
obayed
,
straight
waies
there
went
a
land
the
S●sas
,
Arianos
,
and
the
Gandaros
,
who
when
they
ioyned
with
the
other
that
were
before
a
land
,
were
so
many
in
number
,
that
the
Gr●●kes
began
to
loose
ground
,
and
to
retire
towards
the
citie
.
The
Emperour
séeing
that
,
commaunded
to
issue
foorth
the
Prince
of
Dalmacia
,
and
the
Prince
of
the
Rodes
with
fiftene
thousand
knights
,
who
entred
into
the
battaile
with
so
furious
yre
,
that
in
killing
&
slaying
many
of
the
Pagans
,
they
made
them
to
loose
that
which
before
they
had
gotten
of
the
field
,
and
to
retire
backe
vnto
the
sea
side
.
There
might
you
see
thes●
Princes
do
so
great
actes
,
that
they
were
all
embrued
with
bloud
of
their
enimies
.
Likewise
the
king
of
Media
&
of
the
Partes
,
&
other
kings
,
princes
,
&
captaines
of
the
pagans
,
were
all
a
great
defence
vnto
their
knights
,
for
that
they
were
of
great
&
high
stature
of
their
persons
,
&
verie
valiant
,
strong
and
stoute
,
which
caused
great
destruction
amongst
the
Christians
.
In
all
this
time
was
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
his
sonne
,
so
angrie
,
furious
&
outragious
,
that
there
was
no
one
that
belonged
vnto
them
that
d●rst
abide
their
presence
,
for
that
they
were
appointed
for
to
come
in
the
middest
of
all
that
great
fléete
in
the
garde
&
companie
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
they
séeing
so
many
shippes
before
them
,
(
the
which
should
first
v●sembarke
)
and
they
so
farre
from
that
those
whereto
they
could
not
by
anie
meanes
send
anie
of
their
men
for
to
aide
&
helpe
the
Pagans
that
were
in
battaile
and
oppressed
by
the
Christians
,
were
readie
to
teare
themselues
in
péeces
with
anger
and
griefe
,
and
commanded
the
marriners
,
that
they
should
with
all
sailes
bearing
,
rush
through
the
thickest
of
all
the
fleete
,
with
all
spéede
possible
for
to
come
first
to
the
shore
▪
and
for
that
the
passage
was
verie
perilous
for
to
passe
through
,
where
as
to
manie
shippes
were
at
an
anker
in
the
port
,
the
pylot
did
withdraw
himselfe
in
all
that
euer
he
could
,
not
to
passe
forwards
,
the
which
being
perceiued
by
the
stout
Bramarant
,
his
anger
was
so
great
,
that
he
had
against
the
pylot
,
that
he
tooke
him
by
the
héeles
and
threw
him
headlong
into
the
sea
,
and
said
,
goe
thy
waies
whereas
thou
shalt
lose
all
the
feare
and
dread
that
thou
hast
of
the
Sea
,
for
that
marriners
ought
not
to
haue
anie
more
feare
at
the
Sea
,
then
knights
on
the
land
:
and
therevpon
he
tooke
the
gouernement
of
the
shippe
to
himselfe
,
who
with
stretched
sailes
,
thrust
himselfe
amongst
the
thickest
of
the
fléet
,
with
so
great
furie
,
that
all
pylots
procured
to
let
slip
their
cables
for
to
giue
waie
vnto
him
that
he
might
passe
,
and
by
reason
of
his
first
course
,
there
were
some
shippes
that
had
not
so
much
time
,
receiued
the
wracke
,
and
sunke
into
the
Sea
.
Thus
by
force
hasting
to
the
shoreward
,
launching
out
the
shippe
boate
,
both
the
father
and
sonne
went
to gether
,
and
there
were
so
great
a
number
of
them
and
their
barkes
at
the
sea
side
,
discharging
of
souldiers
,
that
they
could
not
gette
to
the
shore
,
and
they
not
minding
to
staye
for
anie
turnes
or
degrées
,
made
no
more
a
doe
but
leapt
from
one
●oate
vnto
an
other
,
for
to
recouer
the
lande
,
and
yet
were
they
forced
for
to
leape
into
the
water
vp
to
the
knées
before
they
could
get
a
shore
,
who
when
they
found
themselues
vpon
the
firme
lande
,
&
against
them
a
number
of
Gréekes
that
dyd
disturbe
their
disembarking
,
they
did
in
suche
sort
beginne
to
besturre
themselues
amongst
them
,
that
in
a
shorte
time
with
their
wonderfull
and
terrible
blowes
,
they
dyd
so
intreate
them
,
that
of
very
force
they
were
constrained
to
retire
,
for
that
they
neuer
stroke
blow
,
but
that
they
slew
or
ouerthrew
a
knight
to
the
ground
,
that
by
their
mightie
force
,
they
had
place
for
to
disembarke
the
rest
a
land
.
And
in
this
sort
being
a
foote
as
they
were
,
they
put
themselues
into
the
middest
of
the
battaile
,
by
whose
comming
,
many
Gréekes
lost
their
liues
,
and
they
carryed
the
flower
of
the
victorie
,
for
that
whereas
they
went
,
there
was
not
one
that
saw
their
terrible
blowes
,
but
did
flye
away
before
them
,
as
from
the
death
:
so
that
by
reason
hereof
,
the
Gréekes
lost
a
great
parte
of
the
field
,
and
retyred
themselues
towards
the
citie
,
the
which
being
perceiued
by
the
captains
,
they
did
incourage
and
animate
them
all
that
euer
they
could
,
for
to
holde
their
owne
,
and
to
remaine
in
the
field
,
but
they
respecting
the
two
Paganes
and
saw
that
they
were
the
onely
occasion
of
their
retyring
,
and
signe
of
destruction
,
the
two
Princes
Radamarte
and
Rodafeo
,
toke
to
them
two
bigge
and
strong
staues
,
and
setting
spurres
to
their
Horses
,
with
so
great
furie
as
possible
was
,
the
one
made
his
encounter
against
Bradaman
,
and
the
other
against
Bramarant
,
who
although
they
were
on
foote
,
yet
for
all
that
by
reason
of
the
greatnesse
and
mightinesse
of
their
persons
,
were
séene
aboue
all
the
rest
:
but
it
fell
not
out
well
with
these
two
Princes
,
for
although
they
made
their
encounter
verie
strongly
,
and
brake
their
staues
,
yet
did
they
them
no
harme
,
neither
made
any
motion
of
mouing
thereat
,
but
passing
by
,
they
strok
either
of
them
such
a
blow
at
his
enimie
with
so
great
furie
,
on
their
wastes
,
that
they
ouerthrew
them
to
the
earth
,
and
if
their
armour
had
not
bene
verie
good
,
they
had
parted
them
a
sunder
in
the
middest
.
Forthwith
these
furious
Pagans
passed
forwards
for
to
put
themselues
in
the
thickest
of
the
Gréekes
,
who
fled
meruailously
before
them
,
in
which
time
the
two
Princes
had
space
for
to
recouer
againe
their
horses
,
and
with
great
anger
and
griefe
for
that
misfortune
that
happened
vnto
them
,
they
put
themselues
amongst
the
Pagans
,
requiting
on
them
the
iniurie
done
by
the
other
two
,
determining
not
to
return
anie
more
to
proue
themselues
vpon
the
two
Pagans
that
had
ouerthrowen
them
,
because
they
sawe
that
they
coulde
get
but
little
honour
at
their
hands
.
In
this
time
the
Greekes
retired
backe
all
that
euer
they
could
,
and
lost
a
great
part
of
the
field
,
so
that
the
rest
of
the
Pagan
fleete
had
roome
and
space
inough
for
to
dise●barke
themselues
,
so
that
all
the
fields
were
peopled
with
the
Pagan
host
.
The
which
the
Emperour
●rebatio
perceiuing
,
he
straight
waies
commanded
the
Prince
of
Dardania
and
the
king
of
Esclauonia
,
that
they
with
twentie
thousand
knights
should
issue
out
into
the
battaile
,
and
do
so
much
,
that
by
force
they
might
make
the
Pagans
for
to
retire
,
onelie
for
that
they
should
not
thinke
Grecia
so
be
so
ill
prouided
of
knights
and
defence
.
Then
these
two
Captaines
who
were
verie
valiant
and
stout
knights
,
with
those
knights
that
the
Emperour
had
commanded
,
departed
out
of
the
citie
,
and
passing
two
great
fields
that
were
betwéene
the
Pagan
host
and
them
,
they
came
vnto
the
battaile
,
and
séeing
that
the
Grecians
retired
and
were
like
to
lose
the
victorie
,
with
all
the
force
and
furie
possible
,
they
entred
all
together
into
the
battaile
,
and
slew
many
of
their
enimies
,
and
got
againe
the
field
the
which
before
they
had
lost
,
&
made
the
Pagans
to
retire
vnto
the
sea
side
,
although
they
were
a
great
number
more
,
then
there
were
of
the
Gréekes
,
and
continually
did
disembarke
more
and
more
,
all
alongst
the
coast
,
some
armed
,
and
other
some
tarrying
for
theyr
armour
and
horse
,
yet
for
all
this
it
dyd
well
appeare
that
those
which
came
from
the
citie
a
fresh
,
had
not
felt
the
great
power
and
infernall
furie
of
these
braue
Pagans
,
the
father
&
the
sonne
,
who
with
great
ease
did
battayle
with
the
rest
,
but
quickly
they
felt
their
mortall
and
wonderfull
blowes
,
which
caused
them
to
loose
a
great
part
of
their
brauerie
,
&
semed
that
those
two
were
sufficient
for
to
destroy
them
all
,
who
with
verie
broade
and
heauie
fauchins
,
dyd
put
themselues
amongst
the
Gréekes
,
some
they
cut
a
sunder
by
the
wastes
,
and
othersome
they
cloue
down
to
their
breastes
,
and
othersome
vnto
the
saddle
,
and
made
great
slaughter
in
such
sort
,
that
amongst
the
Gréekes
,
ther
was
not
one
knight
although
he
were
neuer
so
valiant
&
stoute
,
that
durst
abyde
before
them
,
but
ranne
away
from
t●e
place
whereas
they
saw
them
come
,
thinking
them
to
be
more
like
diuels
of
bell
,
then
knights
.
At
this
time
the
Emperour
Alicandro
was
come
a
shore
,
and
mo●ted
vpon
a
triumphant
Chariot
,
such
a
one
as
the
princesse
Lindabrides
brought
:
out
of
the
which
he
did
behold
all
that
passed
in
the
battaile
,
and
was
verie
ioyfull
for
to
sée
the
great
wonders
which
Bradaman
Campion
,
and
his
sonne
dyd
,
and
semed
vnto
him
that
they
two
alone
were
sufficient
for
to
destroy
a
whole
armie
,
and
he
saw
that
by
their
force
,
the
Gréekes
began
to
loose
ground
,
although
euerie
one
of
them
did
verie
wel
,
by
the
great
incouraging
of
their
captaines
.
At
this
time
the
good
knight
Rosicleer
(
finding
himselfe
agreued
)
would
not
detaine
himselfe
any
longer
in
the
citie
,
&
seing
that
the
battaile
was
meruailously
moued
,
he
armed
himselfe
with
his
strong
,
rich
,
and
glistering
armour
.
And
although
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
and
the
Emprisse
Briana
his
mother
did
all
that
they
could
for
to
disturbe
his
going
,
yet
dyd
it
profit
them
very
little
,
for
that
in
taking
lisence
of
the
Emperour
his
father
,
he
issued
out
of
the
citie
,
accompanied
with
those
valiant
knights
,
the
Troian
Oristedes
,
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
the
two
princes
Bargandel
and
Liriamandro
,
and
the
king
Alamades
,
all
these
sixe
together
without
carrying
any
other
people
in
their
companie
,
but
onely
certaine
squires
for
to
carrie
their
speares
.
In
this
sort
went
towards
the
battaile
a
gallope
with
their
horse
and
according
as
they
were
of
gallant
proporcions
,
and
very
well
armed
,
they
gaue
contentment
vnto
all
that
dyd
behold
them
,
and
the
e●tring
of
these
knights
into
the
battaile
,
fell
out
euel
vnto
a
great
number
,
for
that
in
this
day
a
great
number
of
the
pagans
lost
their
liues
by
their
hands
.
With
great
furie
entred
these
sixe
worthie
knights
,
into
the
battaile
,
and
so
valiantly
besturred
themselues
,
that
vnto
the
rest
of
the
Gréekes
they
gaue
new
force
and
courage
to
returne
vnto
the
fight
,
and
great
wonder
vnto
the
Pagans
to
sée
their
brauerie
,
with
great
anger
they
put
themselues
amongst
their
enimies
,
ouerthrowing
and
killing
all
that
euer
was
in
their
waies
,
in
such
sort
that
they
left
all
the
field
,
(
whereas
they
went
)
full
of
dead
bodies
,
&
there
was
not
one
,
although
he
were
neuer
so
stout
,
that
durst
abyde
before
them
,
but
in
especiall
,
that
worthie
Rosicleer
,
who
had
the
forehand
,
dyd
charge
his
enimies
with
so
great
and
furious
blowes
,
that
the
Emperour
Alicandio
,
&
other
Pagan
kniges
that
dyd
behold
them
out
of
the
triumphant
Chariot
▪
did
think
verely
that
it
was
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
in
his
gallant
proporcion
,
and
mightinesse
of
bodie
,
he
did
resemble
him
verie
much
.
And
their
bloud
waxed
colde
in
their
bodies
to
see
how
he
did
cut
their
knights
asunder
in
the
middest
,
and
some
cloue
downe
vnto
the
gerdelsted
:
likewise
they
were
greatly
amazed
at
the
stoute
Troyan
that
rode
by
him
,
who
ouerthrew
&
slew
with
his
sword
,
all
that
euer
he
could
reach
,
and
dyd
in
this
day
make
aparant
vnto
all
people
,
the
valiant
discent
from
whence
he
did
procéede
.
Also
that
valiant
Tartarian
,
did
here
shew
the
great
loue
that
he
bare
vnto
Rosicleer
,
for
whose
sake
,
he
forsooke
his
owne
natiue
countrie
,
&
slew
so
many
of
those
barbarous
people
,
that
he
was
all
imbrewed
with
the
bloud
of
them
,
the
lyke
dyd
the
two
Princes
and
the
king
,
that
if
they
had
not
bene
approued
knightes
,
they
could
not
haue
followed
Rosicleer
,
by
reason
he
put
himselfe
with
so
great
furie
amongest
the
Pagans
:
but
what
dyd
profit
all
this
that
they
dyd
,
for
although
on
that
part
whereas
they
were
they
got
the
better
hand
,
yet
in
all
other
parts
of
the
battaile
the
Gréekes
fled
away
and
lost
the
fi●ld
,
by
reason
of
the
two
furious
Pagans
,
Bradaman
and
stode
,
who
did
such
di●●lish
wonders
,
that
ther
was
non●
that
could
〈◊〉
what
to
make
of
them
.
There
〈…〉
knight
to
Rosicleer
,
declaring
the
mischiefe
the
which
those
two
Pagans
did
,
who
hearing
the
same
,
turned
aboute
his
horse
,
and
went
towardes
that
place
whereas
they
were
acompanied
with
their
freindes
:
and
he
had
not
gon
farre
when
that
a
farre
of
he
saw
them
,
for
that
Bradaman
being
on
foote
,
was
higher
then
any
man
on
horsebacke
from
the
brest
vpwards
,
and
Bra●narant
was
equall
on
foote
with
the
horsemen
,
and
these
two
Pagans
were
all
to
be
rayed
with
bloud
,
and
the
place
whereas
they
were
full
of
dead
bodies
round
about
them
,
procuring
continually
to
presse
forewards
in
the
battaile
,
all
that
euer
they
could
,
for
to
ouertake
them
that
fled
away
before
them
.
The
which
being
séene
by
Rosicleer
,
his
valiant
and
couragious
heart
could
not
suffer
it
,
but
tooke
in
his
hand
the
biggest
speare
that
he
could
finde
,
crying
out
vnto
the
knights
for
to
giue
him
way
:
he
lyke
vnto
a
whirle
winde
,
made
towards
Bramarant
,
at
which
noyse
an
the
Pagans
and
Gréekes
gaue
way
for
to
behold
tha●
encounter
,
then
this
furious
Pagan
when
that
he
sawe
him
comming
,
with
his
broade
faucheon
in
his
hand
,
did
abide
him
,
and
〈◊〉
still
,
thinking
him
to
be
one
as
the
other
knights
were
,
but
this
good
knight
made
his
encounter
in
the
middest
of
his
broad
and
great
breast
,
with
so
great
force
and
strength
,
(
that
although
he
was
accustomed
not
to
make
any
m●uing
〈◊〉
encounter
that
was
made
against
him
)
yet
at
this
present
he
was
ouerthrowen
and
fell
backwards
to
the
ground
,
that
he
thought
verely
all
his
bones
had
bene
broken
,
at
whose
fall
there
was
so
great
a
noyse
,
as
though
a
tower
had
fallen
downe
,
the
which
fall
troubled
him
so
much
,
that
almost
with
griefe
he
could
scarce
ryse
againe
.
At
which
encounter
all
those
that
dyd
behold
it
,
were
greatly
amazed
,
for
the
Pagans
thought
verely
,
that
there
was
no
humaine
force
that
was
able
to
make
the
like
.
But
much
more
was
the
wonder
of
the
proud
pagan
,
for
that
he
thought
that
all
the
power
of
those
false
gods
in
whome
he
beleued
,
were
not
of
force
to
ouerthrow
him
to
the
grounde
:
&
as
yet
he
was
not
wel
rais●d
vp
〈◊〉
his
〈◊〉
,
when
that
this
good
knight
〈◊〉
,
with
aspe●re
of
no
l●sse
bignesse
them
the
other
,
with
so
great
force
and
impetuositie
,
that
he
séemed
a
whirle
wind
,
returned
vppon
the
gran
Campeon
,
and
made
so
strong
an
encounter
in
the
middest
of
his
breast
,
that
neither
more
nor
lesse
as
his
sonne
,
he
fell
with
his
backe
on
the
ground
,
and
therwith
he
and
his
friend
pressed
forwards
,
making
great
slaughter
amongst
the
Pagans
.
But
when
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
sawe
those
two
most
valiant
Pagans
(
in
whom
hée
had
so
great
confidence
)
to
be
ouerthrown
by
one
alone
knight
,
he
thought
verilie
to
die
in
that
place
with
verie
anger
,
and
complained
against
the
Gods
,
for
that
they
did
giue
vnto
one
knight
so
great
force
and
strength
,
and
more
,
being
a
Christian
.
But
his
anger
and
griefe
did
straight
waies
increase
the
more
,
for
that
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
who
was
with
him
,
and
as
one
that
receiued
no
griefe
at
anie
euill
that
should
happan
vnto
the
Pagans
,
saie
.
You
shall
vnderstand
(
mightie
Emperour
)
that
yonder
knight
who
hath
put
you
in
so
great
admiration
is
not
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
you
doe
thinke
,
for
that
as
yet
he
is
not
come
forth
vnto
the
battaile
,
but
this
is
a
brother
of
his
,
and
such
a
one
,
that
when
that
he
doth
ioyne
with
the
other
,
there
is
not
people
inough
in
all
this
thy
mightie
armie
sufficient
for
to
kill
them
.
The
Emperour
did
verie
well
vnderstand
the
intention
of
the
king
of
Gedrosia
,
and
meruailing
greatlie
at
that
which
he
had
sayd
,
he
did
dissemble
at
that
present
,
and
returned
to
beholde
the
battaile
,
to
sée
the
conclusion
thereof
.
It
cannot
be
héere
declared
the
great
anger
and
diuellish
furie
which
the
two
Pagans
,
Father
and
sonne
receiued
,
to
sée
themselues
so
ouerthrowen
by
one
alone
knight
in
the
presence
of
all
the
whole
Campe
,
which
caused
them
to
do
such
things
,
&
to
srike
so
terrible
blowes
,
that
they
seemed
to
be
diuells
of
hell
.
And
they
seeing
that
they
could
not
by
anie
meanes
followe
and
ouertake
that
knight
which
had
ouerthrowen
them
for
that
they
were
on
foote
,
they
straight
waies
commanded
that
in
great
hall
their
horses
should
be
brought
vnto
them
,
so
they
brought
vnto
Bradaman
a
mightie
Elephant
whereon
he
did
vse
to
ride
,
for
that
there
was
no
horse
that
could
beare
him
,
and
vnto
Bramarant
the
mightiest
horse
of
bodie
that
euer
was
séene
,
for
that
he
was
engendered
by
a
horse
and
a
she
Elephant
.
When
that
these
two
were
mounted
(
for
the
euill
of
many
)
they
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
killing
and
slaying
all
that
euer
they
met
withall
,
till
such
time
as
they
had
discouered
the
worthie
knight
Rosicleer
in
the
companie
of
his
good
friends
,
&
for
that
Bramarant
did
shew
himselfe
of
greater
force
than
his
father
,
by
the
mightie
and
mortall
blowes
which
he
stroke
,
Rosicleer
would
take
with
him
the
contention
,
and
the
Troyan
Oristedes
with
the
stout
Zoylo
,
went
against
Bradaman
,
so
that
betwéene
them
there
began
a
terrible
battaile
,
that
all
those
that
might
sée
them
,
forgot
to
fight
,
and
stood
to
behold
them
,
&
séemed
that
in
all
their
liues
they
neuer
sawe
the
like
,
for
that
they
iudged
to
be
ioyned
together
there
,
all
the
force
and
strength
in
the
world
,
there
did
the
good
knight
Rosicleer
féele
the
great
force
and
furie
of
the
Pagan
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
hée
was
the
brauest
and
most
strongest
that
euer
he
proued
in
all
his
life
.
Likewise
the
stout
Bramarant
did
knowe
his
high
bountie
and
valiant
force
,
for
féeling
the
mightie
blowes
which
hée
stroke
on
him
,
and
séeing
the
little
harme
that
his
blowe
did
vnto
the
knight
,
with
an
angrie
courage
he
blasphemed
against
the
heauens
,
and
against
the
earth
,
and
redoubled
his
blowes
with
so
great
furie
,
that
if
the
armour
of
Rosicleer
had
not
ben
excéeding
good
,
euerie
blow
of
them
had
ben
sufficient
for
to
haue
clouen
him
a
sunder
in
the
middest
,
and
yet
for
all
that
he
many
times
astonied
him
,
&
brought
him
so
farre
out
of
remembraunce
,
that
he
fell
forwards
on
his
saddle
bow
and
embraced
his
horse
necke
,
yet
notwithstanding
this
stout
Pagan
did
not
much
aduance
himselfe
of
his
valiantnesse
,
for
that
this
worthie
Gréeke
being
kindled
with
ire
,
did
with
mortal
courage
so
charge
him
in
such
sort
,
that
his
téeth
did
breake
the
〈◊〉
against
the
other
,
by
the
force
of
his
blowes
,
that
great
abundance
of
bloud
ranne
out
at
his
mouth
,
and
many
times
he
was
so
amazed
,
that
he
was
readie
to
fal
from
his
horse
,
so
that
betwixt
them
the
battaile
grew
so
terrible
,
that
all
those
that
were
in
the
field
forgot
themselues
,
and
did
beholde
them
,
and
were
greatlie
amazed
that
so
much
power
and
force
shoulde
be
in
humane
creatures
.
No
lesse
worth
for
to
be
looked
on
at
that
present
,
was
the
mightie
battaile
that
passed
betwixt
the
stout
Bramarant
&
the
two
good
knights
,
the
Tartarian
&
the
Troyan
,
for
that
Bradaman
was
the
strongest
that
was
to
be
found
amongst
all
the
Gyants
in
the
whole
world
at
that
time
.
Likewise
the
two
knights
were
the
best
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
that
great
hoast
,
next
vnto
Rosicleer
and
Bramarant
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
the
battaile
which
was
betwixt
them
was
the
more
rigorous
,
for
that
the
stout
Tartarian
stroke
Bradaman
such
terrible
blowes
on
the
one
side
,
that
he
astonied
him
,
and
the
valiaunt
Troyan
so
charged
him
on
the
other
side
,
that
he
made
the
bloud
to
runne
out
both
at
his
nose
and
mouth
,
yet
for
all
that
the
mightie
Pagan
did
not
dismaie
himselfe
,
but
was
so
couragious
,
that
euerie
blowe
that
hée
fastned
on
his
enimies
,
did
make
them
to
double
their
bodies
in
their
saddles
,
and
many
times
to
loose
their
remembrance
,
and
if
they
had
not
béene
both
against
him
together
,
either
of
them
alone
should
haue
passed
verie
euill
.
Thus
after
that
this
battaile
had
endured
betwéene
them
the
space
of
halfe
an
houre
,
the
night
drew
on
,
and
then
was
there
disembarked
a
land
so
great
and
infinite
a
companie
of
Pagans
,
that
the
Greekes
could
not
suffer
them
,
but
were
constrained
to
retire
,
the
which
Rosicleer
séeing
,
and
considering
the
great
perill
that
might
happen
vnto
them
,
for
to
rem●ine
there
alone
and
so
farre
from
their
companie
,
presently
left
Bramarant
with
whom
he
did
combat
,
and
called
vnto
his
friends
,
who
did
the
like
,
so
that
in
short
space
with
their
light
and
swift
courses
,
they
put
themselues
amongst
the
Greekes
,
and
returning
backe
in
verie
good
order
,
they
got
into
the
citie
,
the
which
was
no
griefe
vnto
the
Pagans
,
although
the
gran
Campeon
and
Bramarant
remained
verie
angrie
and
furious
,
for
that
they
could
not
be
reuenged
on
those
knightes
that
dyd
so
much
abase
them
.
And
by
reason
that
the
night
drew
on
a
pace
,
the
Emperour
Alycandro
commaunded
his
Tents
to
bée
pitched
,
and
all
that
night
they
had
inough
to
doe
to
disimbarke
the
rest
of
the
people
that
came
in
that
fléete
.
But
when
that
the
next
morning
was
come
,
they
might
sée
all
the
field
of
Grecia
so
replenished
with
barbarous
people
,
that
neuer
before
that
time
was
séene
so
many
people
in
one
armie
,
there
was
so
many
that
they
could
not
be
numbred
,
to
know
how
many
they
were
,
but
that
they
might
discerne
euerie
Nation
was
diuided
by
themselues
,
and
knowen
the
one
from
the
other
.
Likewise
to
sée
the
great
difference
they
had
the
one
from
the
other
in
their
tents
,
the
fashion
of
their
armour
,
the
diuersities
of
spéeches
,
and
the
contrarietie
of
their
customes
and
manners
,
that
no
man
whatsoeuer
he
were
that
should
haue
séene
them
,
but
woulde
haue
meruailed
,
and
receiued
great
admiration
,
the
Emperial
tent
of
the
Emperour
was
all
wrought
with
gold
and
siluer
,
full
of
an
infinite
number
of
fine
,
prcious
,
and
glistering
stones
,
and
was
of
so
huge
bignesse
,
that
a
thousand
armed
knights
might
walke
therin
.
Within
the
same
tent
was
the
Emperiall
seate
of
the
Emperour
,
and
round
about
it
the
seates
of
all
the
other
kings
his
vassals
,
in
such
order
placed
,
as
it
was
in
the
emperiall
hall
of
his
pallace
,
and
round
about
the
same
Tent
was
placed
the
tents
of
the
Tartarians
and
of
the
Scitas
,
with
an
infinit
number
of
tents
and
pauillians
belonging
vnto
them
.
In
like
order
was
placed
the
tents
of
the
other
kings
his
vassals
,
euerie
one
in
his
degrée
.
These
Pagans
were
eight
daies
,
and
had
inough
to
do
to
fortefie
their
tents
and
trenches
,
in
which
time
the
Gréekes
gaue
no
attempt
against
the
Pagans
,
for
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
dyd
send
and
asked
truce
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
for
eight
daies
,
the
which
was
for
no
other
thing
,
but
onelie
that
the
Gréekes
might
fréelie
enter
into
their
campe
for
to
sée
&
discerne
their
mightie
power
,
and
so
they
did
,
for
in
the
space
of
that
eight
daies
,
the
Gréekes
did
no
other
thing
but
goe
and
come
into
the
camp
and
hoast
of
the
Pagans
,
and
were
greatlie
amazed
to
sée
so
many
and
so
different
Nations
ioyned
together
,
and
so
conformable
for
to
obey
and
accomplish
the
commandement
of
their
Lord
.
Likewise
in
this
time
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
hearkened
to
no
other
thing
but
to
send
to
his
knights
from
one
place
vnto
another
,
in
the
demand
and
séeking
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
when
that
he
could
not
heare
anie
newes
by
them
,
hée
was
verie
sad
and
sorrowfull
for
the
same
,
as
well
for
the
suspition
hée
had
of
some
misfortune
that
might
happen
vnto
him
,
as
also
for
the
great
lacke
of
his
aide
and
helpe
that
they
might
haue
in
that
time
of
necessitie
.
The
Princesse
Lyndab●ides
likewise
in
the
time
of
these
eight
daies
of
truce
,
was
informed
by
certaine
Gréekes
,
how
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
absent
from
the
Court
,
and
that
many
daies
since
they
neuer
could
heare
anie
newes
of
him
,
for
the
which
newes
she
was
meruailouslie
sad
and
heauie
,
for
that
she
was
determined
to
enter

she
might
sée
him
,
who
was

vnto
her
that
in
onelie
séeing
of
him
,
her
hart
should
receiue

she
had
great
hope

(

for
to
eschue

that
were
ordained
against

that
they
would
thinke
it

she
beganne
a

THE
last
daie
of
the
truce
that
was
put
betwéene
the
two
Emperors
,
ariued
in
Grecia
the
Prince
Claueryndo
,
who
came
in
aide
and
succour
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
with
twentie
thousand
knightes
,
of
the
best
proportioned
and
armed
,
that
were
at
that
time
ioyned
together
in
Grecia
,
and
they
disimbarked
themselues
in
the
sight
of
all
the
Pagans
,
and
entered
into
Constantinople
,
at
whose
comming
the
Emperour
Trebatio
receiued
as
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
as
the
Emperour
Alycandro
sorrow
and
griefe
,
for
that
those
knights
came
in
the
time
of
their
truce
,
and
his
will
was
to
the
contrarie
,
for
that
he
would
haue
giuen
them
a
recompentibus
before
their
entering
into
Constantinople
,
but
straight
waies
his
griefe
began
to
double
,
for
that
within
one
houre
after
ariued
there
the
good
king
Sacridoro
with
eight
thousand
of
his
owne
knights
,
and
in
his
companie
came
the
Prince
Don
Lucindo
,
with
great
desire
for
to
shew
the
good
will
that
he
bore
vnto
Rosicleer
,
all
the
which
came
a
shore
in
the
face
of
all
the
Pagans
,
&
passed
through
the
great
field
,
and
so
entered
into
Constantinople
,
whereas
they
were
receiued
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
&
Rosicleer
,
with
that
loue
and
friendship
as
was
alwaies
betwixt
them
.
Likewise
the
last
daie
of
the
truce
lacked
not
the
comming
of
the
good
and
valyant
king
Florion
,
and
in
his
companie
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
and
his
sonne
,
the
stout
Brandizel
,
who
met
with
him
at
the
Sea
,
by
the
industrie
and
wisedome
of
the
wise
man
,
and
in
his
companie
twentie
thousand
knights
,
who
came
to
paie
the
greate
debt
in
the
which
hée
was
bound
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
at
their
entrie
into
Constantinople
they
were
receiued
of
the
Emperour
and
of
the
Empresse
,
as
such
persons
as
they
were
deserued
,
who
knew
not
how
to
gratifie
the
great
paines
and
trauaile
which
they
had
taken
,
in
comming
from
so
farre
Countries
to
fauour
,
succour
,
and
helpe
them
▪
Héere
the
king
Flo●ion
and
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
began
a
new
for
to
declare
vnto
them
,
how
&
in
what
sort
the
young
Gentleman
of
the
Sunne
was
found
,
and
how
he
was
nourished
and
brought
vp
into
his
companie
,
till
such
time
as
he
departed
from
them
.
Whereat
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
receiued
great
contentment
to
heare
it
told
.
Then
the
wise
man
turned
vnto
Rosicleer
&
did
embrace
him
with
great
loue
and
sayd
:
Séeing
that
it
is
so
(
worthie
Prince
)
that
the
euill
fortune
of
your
brother
is
fallen
out
so
contrarie
,
that
hée
is
now
absent
out
of
this
Countrie
,
and
you
alone
doe
remaine
the
shield
and
defence
,
of
your
father
and
Countrie
,
shew
your selfe
now
as
euer
héeretofore
you
haue
béene
,
&
let
no
troubles
nor
trauailes
ouercome
you
,
nor
wearinesse
enter
into
your
benes
,
for
seeing
that
God
hath
created
and
made
you
so
valiant
&
worthie
,
let
the
honour
of
your
mightie
&
valiant
attempts
appeare
in
your
high
knighthood
,
and
you
may
wel
make
this
account
,
that
if
you
goe
through
with
this
enterprise
,
you
haue
conquered
all
the
world
from
the
Orient
vnto
the
Occident
(
beside
the
small
companie
that
is
on
your
part
)
they
be
all
against
you
,
&
this
much
I
can
tell
you
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
your
brother
,
that
since
his
departure
from
hence
,
he
hath
not
bene
greatlie
at
his
ease
,
for
that
he
hath
passed
greater
perils
&
dangers
than
you
can
passe
in
these
wars
,
&
it
doth
not
beho●e
vs
to
speak
any
more
of
him
,
for
that
of
force
he
must
passe
the
troubles
the
which
his
destinie
hath
ordained
for
him
.
Héere
did
Rosicleer
gratifie
very
much
the
wise
man
for
that
which
he
had
sayd
vnto
him
,
and
after
thanks
giuing
,
he
said
,
that
hauing
him
on
his
side
,
there
was
nothing
that
he
did
feare
.
At
this
instant
came
thether
fiue
thousand
knights
from
the
kingdome
of
Thessalia
,
and
in
their
companie
came
the
faire
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
who
after
that
she
vnderstood
that
Rosicleer
(
by
whome
shée
recouered
her
kingdome
)
was
sonne
vnto
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
she
was
not
content
to
send
to
him
of
her
knightes
,
but
she
her selfe
would
come
in
person
vnto
Constantinople
,
as
wel
for
to
sée
Rosicleer
,
as
also
because
she
hoped
to
receiue
&
take
a
husband
at
his
appointment
.
The
Emperor
&
Rosicleer
thought
great
friendship
of
the
comming
of
this
aide
,
by
whom
as
also
by
the
Empresse
the
Quéene
was
receiued
with
great
honour
.
All
these
were
ioyned
together
in
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
whereas
the
Emperor
found
of
the
one
&
of
the
other
100.
●
foure
score
thousand
knights
,
so
that
if
there
were
not
ioyned
together
so
many
of
their
aduersaries
,
they
had
ben
sufficient
to
haue
conquered
al
the
whole
world
,
yet
was
there
of
the
Pagans
foure
for
one
,
&
amongst
them
there
were
the
most
br●uest
&
stoutest
giants
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
the
world
,
for
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
sent
for
them
from
the
Ilands
of
the
farthest
part
of
the
Ocean
seas
,
and
Bradaman
Campeon
brought
with
him
two
thousand
,
that
he
tooke
out
of
the
Oriental
Ilands
,
so
that
all
these
were
of
so
furious
and
stout
a
Nation
,
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
héere
great
néede
of
the
aide
and
help
of
almightie
God
.
All
this
aide
and
succour
aforesaid
entered
into
Constantinople
in
the
face
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
all
his
,
wherat
he
was
wonderfull
wrathfull
,
as
well
for
their
comming
to
aide
their
enimies
,
as
also
for
that
they
entered
in
the
time
of
their
truce
,
so
that
hée
and
all
that
were
with
him
had
great
good
will
for
to
distrube
them
of
their
entrie
into
the
Citie
,
and
swore
that
after
their
truce
was
ended
,
if
there
came
anie
more
aide
&
succour
,
that
first
they
would
put
them
all
vnto
the
sword
,
rather
than
consent
that
they
should
enter
into
Constantinople
,
for
that
he
might
better
deale
with
them
abroade
in
the
field
than
in
the
Citie
,
and
from
that
daie
forwardes
the
Emperour
Alycandro
commanded
that
there
should
be
put
spies
and
scoutes
in
all
places
,
for
to
aduertise
them
if
there
came
anie
more
succour
vnto
the
Gréekes
,
the
which
was
no
small
harme
vnto
them
(
as
shall
be
tolde
you
héereafter
in
this
Hystorie
)
but
God
who
is
the
author
of
al
goodnesse
,
did
so
ordaine
,
that
by
their
owne
spies
and
scoutes
they
came
to
p●rdition
&
were
lost
,
for
that
hée
would
not
that
his
Christian
people
should
receiue
so
much
harme
as
was
ordained
for
them
by
theyr
enimies
.
Of
the
second
battaile
which
the
Greekes
had
with
the
Pagans
,
and
of
the
notable
acts
that
were
done
in
the
same
.
Chap.

AFter
that
the
eight
daies
were
past
of
the
truce
that
was
taken
betwéene
the
Gréekes
and
the
Pagans
,
the
next
daie
following
,
which
was
the
ninth
daie
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
determined
to
issue
out
of
the
Citie
with
his
knightes
into
the
field
,
and
giue
battaile
vnto
his
enimies
,
who
were
likewise
in
a
redinesse
,
and
verie
desirous
they
dyd
abide
their
comming
,
thinking
it
long
to
sée
them
in
their
clouches
,
but
in
especiall
those
two
furious
Pagans
the
gran
Campion
and
Bramarant
,
vnto
whome
the
eight
daies
of
truce
séemed
to
be
eight
yéeres
according
vnto
the
great
desire
which
they
had
to
be
reuenged
on
those
knights
which
had
so
shamed
them
in
the
first
battaile
,
who
so
soone
as
they
sawe
anie
people
begin
to
come
forth
out
of
the
citie
to
enter
the
field
,
put
themselues
before
all
the
whole
armie
,
for
that
they
would
be
the
first
that
should
enter
into
the
battaile
.
So
he
that
came
the
formost
of
the
Gréekes
,
was
that
good
knight
Rosicleer
,
and
next
vnto
him
the
stoute
Oristedes
,
with
the
good
king
Sacridoro
,
&
with
them
twentie
thousande
of
Greeke
knights
,
who
vpon
a
sodaine
,
did
set
vpon
a
great
bushment
of
Pagans
that
tooke
the
fore
frunt
of
the
host
,
in
the
which
was
more
then
fortie
thousand
knights
of
the
Seras
&
of
the
Medos
,
who
had
for
their
captains
the
king
of
Seras
,
&
the
king
of
the
Medos
,
both
of
the
which
were
young
men
and
verie
valiant
knightes
,
and
in
their
companie
came
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
,
in
the
foreward
,
the
one
mounted
vpon
his
Elephant
,
and
the
other
vpon
his
mightie
horse
,
and
either
of
them
a
speare
in
his
hand
so
great
,
that
it
séemed
the
mast
of
a
ship
,
who
pricked
before
their
company
,
and
made
great
hast
towards
the
Gréekes
.
Then
came
there
forth
to
receue
them
Rosicleer
and
his
good
companions
,
in
such
sort
,
that
he
made
his
encounter
with
Bramarant
,
and
the
good
Troyan
with
the
king
Sacridoro
,
made
their
encounter
with
Bradaman
,
so
that
all
fiue
together
made
so
strong
&
mightie
an
encounter
,
that
the
noise
thereof
made
a
terrible
sound
throughout
all
those
broade
and
wide
fields
,
as
though
some
thunder
bolt
had
fallen
when
their
Speares
were
broken
,
they
remaining
all
firme
in
their
saddles
passed
the
one
by
the
other
forwards
,
&
neuer
staied
till
they
put
themselues
in
the
●ace
of
their
enimies
,
and
with
so
great
fu●ie
they
entered
amongst
them
,
that
they
couered
the
fields
with
dead
knights
,
and
the
dust
that
arose
into
the
aire
did
c●uer
all
the
whole
hoste
that
they
could
scarce
sée
one
another
,
and
the
horse
ran
masterlesse
about
the
field
which
was
a
show
how
manie
they
had
ouerthrowne
〈◊〉
that
their
first
entrie
:
At
this
time
those
two
furyous
Pagans
being
somewhat
wery
in
killing
of
their
aduersaries
,
retourned
back
to
séeke
out
them
who
had
iusted
with
them
,
and
they
sawe
them
in
the
midest
of
their
aduersaries
&
enymies
all
to
berayed
with
bloud
,
kylling
and
ouerthrowing
all
that
they
could
méete
with
all
,
and
when
they
came
nighe
vnto
them
,
Bramarant
went
against
Rosicleer
,
and
Bradaman
against
his
two
companions
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
began
such
a
battaile
,
that
many
that
were
there
dyd
leaue
of
their
fighting
,
onely
to
behold
them
,
for
that
their
blowes
which
they
did
strike
,
did
make
them
all
to
wonder
,
and
there
was
no
man
that
did
behold
them
,
but
receiued
great
feare
&
dread
.
Here
in
this
conflict
might
be
séene
how
necessarie
is
the
armour
,
vnto
good
knights
,
such
as
are
made
and
forged
by
maisters
of
Arte
Magicke
,
for
if
they
were
not
forged
,
with
their
compositions
&
subiections
,
according
vnto
Arte
,
then
were
the
best
knightes
in
all
the
worlde
as
readie
and
as
subiect
to
be
clouen
in
the
middest
vnto
their
wasts
,
by
the
terrible
blowes
of
these
monsters
,
as
any
other
simple
wretch
and
feble
person
,
for
whan
their
armour
is
not
good
,
many
times
in
the
breaking
they
loose
an
arme
and
some
other
ioynt
,
or
receiue
some
great
wound
,
whan
that
at
all
times
at
their
néede
they
shall
not
finde
a
Surgeon
●o
cure
&
heale
them
.
Therefore
such
as
were
good
knights
in
those
dayes
,
and
desired
to
put
themselues
in
mightie
perills
&
dangers
,
did
more
procure
to
get
their
armour
made
by
arte
,
then
to
get
a
kingedome
,
and
in
this
sort
they
did
defend
themselues
the
one
from
the
other
,
assuring
their
owne
persons
in
such
sort
,
that
all
the
condition
of
their
battailes
did
depend
in
their
great
force
and
stregth
,
and
in
him
that
most
mightely
and
worthely
with
dexteritie
did
strike
and
deliuer
his
blowes
.
So
that
in
this
conflict
,
although
the
blowes
of
Bramarant
were
wonderfull
and
terrible
,
yet
dyd
Rosicleer
receiue
&
abide
them
on
the
finenesse
of
his
armour
,
which
were
of
the
best
that
was
in
all
the
whole
world
:
likewise
in
the
valiantnesse
of
his
courage
,
which
was
not
onely
for
to
make
resistance
against
that
furious
Pagan
,
but
also
he
did
so
furiously
and
so
strongly
charge
him
with
his
blowes
,
that
many
times
he
made
him
astonied
and
to
sweat
drops
of
bloud
,
for
that
of
trueth
Bramarant
thought
before
hée
made
a
profe
of
this
knight
,
that
in
all
the
heauens
and
vppon
the
earth
,
there
was
not
to
be
found
one
that
durst
abyde
his
importunate
furie
,
wherewith
he
receiued
so
great
courage
and
anger
,
that
with
an
infernall
stomacke
he
redoubled
his
blowes
against
the
strong
&
worthie
Rosicleer
,
in
such
sort
that
his
owne
flesh
and
bones
dyd
ake
,
&
it
séemed
that
the
other
was
all
on
fyer
,
with
the
great
quantitie
of
sparkes
that
he
made
flie
out
of
his
fine
forged
armor
.
Likewise
,
was
no
lesse
rigorous
,
the
braue
&
stout
battaile
the
which
Bradaman
Campion
,
had
with
the
two
valiant
knights
,
for
that
the
Gran
Campion
,
next
vnto
his
sonne
Bramarant
,
was
the
most
mightiest
and
strongest
that
was
in
all
the
whole
Orient
,
whome
the
stout
Troyan
and
the
valiant
King
Sacridoro
,
together
,
dyd
so
stronglie
charge
with
their
blowes
,
that
it
could
not
be
better
executed
,
i●
that
he
hadde
bene
assauted
by
the
two
worthie
Troyans
,
Hector
,
and
Troylus
.
In
this
sort
was
these
two
so
stoute
captains
matched
with
their
contraries
,
&
the
other
knights
and
souldiers
did
all
that
euer
they
could
for
to
driue
theyr
enimies
out
of
the
field
,
but
by
reason
that
on
the
Pagans
part
,
there
was
that
stout
and
valiant
knight
Rodaran
,
the
King
of
Media
,
and
the
King
of
Seras
,
and
on
the
contrarie
part
,
there
was
none
for
to
make
resistance
vnto
those
,
they
made
great
slaughter
vpon
the
Gréekes
,
by
reason
whereof
,
as
also
for
that
there
were
twise
so
many
of
the
Pagans
as
they
were
,
they
began
to
retyre
,
&
to
lose
ground
,
the
which
being
perceiued
by
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
he
would
not
detaine
himselfe
any
longer
in
the
Citie
,
but
taking
in
his
companie
those
high
and
mightie
Princes
the
king
Florion
and
Brandizel
his
sonne
,
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
Bargandel
,
&
Liriamendro
,
with
Don
Lucindo
,
&
other
mightie
princes
and
knights
the
most
principal
of
all
his
court
,
he
issued
out
of
the
citie
,
and
had
with
him
thirtie
thousand
knights
verie
good
and
chosen
men
,
and
so
entred
into
the
battaile
with
great
furie
,
deuiding
themselues
into
two
parts
,
that
what
with
killing
,
wounding
,
and
slaying
,
they
oppressed
so
much
their
enimies
,
that
they
forced
the
Pagans
to
retyre
into
their
trenches
,
whereas
the
Gréekes
in
following
of
them
,
ouerthrew
many
tents
,
but
straight
waies
ther
came
forth
against
them
more
then
fiftie
thousande
Pagans
with
valiant
and
stout
captaines
,
&
made
their
encounter
with
the
other
that
came
vppon
them
a
fresh
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
the
battaile
was
renewed
and
waxed
verie
bloudie
.
Here
was
to
be
séene
the
great
meruailes
done
by
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
in
distroying
and
killing
all
that
was
before
him
,
for
some
he
cut
a
sunder
in
the
middest
,
and
other
their
armes
,
and
other
their
heads
,
in
such
sort
,
that
who
soeuer
had
sene
him
with
that
impetious
furie
,
they
could
not
haue
iudged
him
,
but
to
be
either
his
sonne
Rosicleer
,
or
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
in
his
mightie
déedes
,
he
did
demonstrate
,
that
there
was
not
a
Christian
prince
that
with
more
reason
did
deserue
to
beare
the
name
to
be
father
of
so
excelent
sonnes
.
He
did
not
content
himselfe
to
kil
&
destroy
meane
knights
,
but
did
séeke
out
the
principall
captaines
,
&
knowing
them
by
the
richnesse
of
their
armour
,
he
would
assalt
them
,
making
rekoning
,
that
in
ouercomming
them
,
he
ouerlayed
the
whole
state
and
force
of
the
battaile
,
and
there
with
he
met
with
the
king
of
the
Seras
,
and
knowing
him
,
by
a
riche
crowne
of
Gold
and
precious
stones
which
he
had
vpon
his
helme
,
he
tooke
a
speare
from
one
of
his
knights
,
and
ranne
at
him
therewith
,
making
his
encounter
in
the
middest
of
his
brest
,
that
the
speare
pearsed
through
his
bodie
,
and
he
fell
dead
to
the
ground
,
this
being
done
he
made
an
other
encounter
against
the
king
of
the
Balibotros
(
who
receiued
little
benefit
of
his
thirtie
thousand
knights
,
and
eight
thousand
Elephants
,
which
he
brought
out
of
his
countrie
)
for
that
at
one
thrust
with
a
speare
,
his
heart
was
clouen
a
sunder
,
and
the
head
appeared
all
bloudie
at
his
backe
,
and
he
tumbled
to
the
ground
:
likewise
with
another
blow●
with
his
sword
he
cloue
the
head
of
another
king
of
the
Nidias
,
which
had
his
healme
more
furnished
with
golde
and
precious
stones
,
than
of
strength
.
In
this
sort
he
passed
into
the
battaile
doing
such
meruailes
,
that
whereas
he
passed
,
they
all
made
him
roome
and
gaue
waie
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alicand●o
who
saw
all
that
passed
from
his
triumphant
Chariot
,
sayd
vnto
many
kings
that
were
with
him
.
Without
all
doubt
this
is
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
and
new
come
into
the
battaile
,
and
of
truth
his
power
is
verie
great
,
and
he
would
giue
●s
the
repulse
,
if
there
were
not
so
infinit
a
number
of
knights
in
this
my
armie
to
make
resistaunce
.
Tarrie
a
while
(
sayd
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
)
for
that
is
not
the
knight
of
the
Sun
as
you
do
saie
,
but
it
is
the
Emperour
Trebatio
his
Father
,
who
when
that
he
himselfe
in
the
middest
betwixt
his
sonnes
,
and
accompanied
with
that
bushments
of
knights
which
now
are
with
him
,
he
wil
not
feare
all
the
whole
world
,
if
they
were
all
together
against
him
.
At
this
time
who
so
had
séene
the
great
slaughter
which
that
valiant
Florion
&
his
sonne
Brandizel
did
,
as
also
the
Prince
Clauerindo
with
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
all
the
other
precious
and
worthie
knights
,
surely
they
would
haue
saide
,
that
by
experience
of
the
great
slaughter
which
they
did
,
they
had
ben
sufficient
to
haue
destroied
a
great
armie
,
that
although
the
Pagans
were
almost
twice
so
many
as
they
were
,
yet
by
their
occasion
they
lost
continually
ground
,
and
if
there
had
not
béene
amongst
them
one
Bradaman
and
one
Bramarant
that
did
incourage
them
,
they
shoulde
haue
had
inough
to
doe
to
haue
defended
themselues
from
them
with
whom
they
were
so
earnest
in
battaile
withal
,
for
that
it
was
good
two
houres
since
they
first
began
fight
,
and
at
that
time
there
was
no
more
aduantage
to
be
knowen
than
at
their
first
beginning
,
at
the
which
these
braue
Pagans
were
so
furious
,
that
it
séemed
that
they
threw
out
smoake
from
the
beauers
of
their
healmes
,
and
béeing
verie
desirous
to
satisfie
their
hungrie
wrath
with
the
bloud
of
the
others
,
Bramarant
dyd
leaue
Rosicleer
with
whome
he
dyd
combat
,
and
like
a
diuell
of
hell
hée
put
himselfe
into
the
battaile
,
destroying
and
killing
all
that
euer
hee
met
with
,
so
that
before
him
hée
made
a
broade
lane
,
and
sayd
within
himselfe
,
that
Rosicleer
was
verie
valiant
and
strong
,
and
could
not
beléeue
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
so
much
strength
,
but
yet
if
that
he
might
haue
him
in
place
whereas
they
might
haue
more
roome
,
and
time
for
to
finish
their
combat
,
hée
would
be
wholie
reuenged
of
him
according
vnto
his
will
and
desire
.
Likewise
at
that
time
Bradaman
his
Father
,
with
his
sword
in
both
his
hands
stroke
so
strong
a
blow
at
the
good
Troyan
vpon
his
helme
,
that
béeing
all
amazed
and
from
himselfe
,
his
horse
carried
him
round
about
the
field
,
and
turning
himselfe
about
,
hée
stroke
another
blow
at
the
king
Sacridoro
,
that
hée
fell
backwardes
vpon
his
horse
crouper
,
and
had
fallen
to
the
ground
,
if
that
he
had
not
béene
succoured
by
the
Gréekes
,
and
without
making
anie
more
account
of
them
,
hée
put
himselfe
into
the
battaile
after
his
sonne
,
and
béeing
both
together
,
they
made
so
great
slaughter
,
that
all
did
flie
from
that
part
whereas
they
went
.
It
dyd
not
much
grieue
Rosicleer
nor
his
companions
to
sée
themselues
separated
from
those
diuells
,
yet
with
great
furie
they
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
killing
and
ouerthrowing
all
that
euer
came
into
their
waie
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
it
went
euill
with
a
great
number
,
for
that
they
were
separated
from
the
battaile
which
they
had
with
those
stout
Pagans
.
At
this
time
the
Emperour
Trebatio
met
with
that
strong
knight
Rodaran
king
of
Arabia
,
and
knowing
him
by
the
deuice
of
his
armour
,
with
great
anger
that
hée
had
against
him
for
▪
the
treason
hée
vsed
,
hée
made
towardes
him
,
(
and
for
that
Rodaran
was
one
of
the
valiantest
Pagans
that
was
in
all
the
whole
armie
)
it
was
the
occasion
that
betwixt
them
there
began
a
stout
and
braue
battaile
,
that
many
had
inough
to
doe
to
behold
them
,
and
the
rest
of
the
daie
was
almost
spent
before
that
they
were
parted
asunder
,
and
for
because
there
were
at
that
present
in
the
battayle
few
principall
Knightes
in
parte
of
the
Pagans
,
and
on
the
Emperour
Trebatio
his
side
there
were
a
great
number
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
the
Pagans
that
the
Gréekes
got
much
ground
on
them
.
The
Emperour
Al●candro
straight
waies
commaunded
the
two
thousand
Gyantes
of
Bradaman
for
to
enter
into
the
battaile
,
who
obeied
his
commandement
with
so
great
impetuositie
and
furie
,
that
many
of
their
aduersaries
they
●●ew
and
ouerthrew
vnto
the
ground
.
At
this
present
were
to
be
séene
the
great
meruailes
done
by
Rosicleer
,
and
by
all
the
other
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
,
who
being
ioyned
together
with
the
number
of
one
thousand
of
their
knightes
,
did
put
themselues
to
make
resistance
against
all
those
Gyants
,
and
with
their
strong
and
worthy
armes
did
resist
that
impetuous
companie
,
who
were
sufficient
to
put
them
all
to
flight
.
Héere
did
the
stout
Oristedes
verie
well
shew
his
manhoode
,
and
the
valiant
&
worthie
Clauerindo
,
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
the
Prince
Don
Lucindo
,
Liriamandro
,
&
Bargandel
,
the
king
Alamades
,
Rodamarte
&
Rodafeo
,
euerie
one
of
these
did
so
much
,
that
the
reader
thereof
may
coniecture
of
their
great
bountie
,
but
yet
in
the
end
by
reason
that
the
Pagans
were
double
as
many
as
they
,
and
againe
those
two
diuells
the
Father
and
the
sonne
,
against
whom
there
was
small
resistance
to
be
made
,
for
that
these
worthie
and
estéemed
knights
of
Grecia
had
inough
to
doe
to
make
resistance
against
the
giants
of
Campion
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
all
his
people
when
the
night
drew
on
began
to
retire
and
to
loose
ground
a
little
and
little
,
the
which
being
considered
of
by
the
Emperour
●rebatio
,
and
fearing
the
great
perill
that
might
happen
vnto
his
people
,
he
〈◊〉
vnto
Rodaran
,
that
if
he
thought
good
to
leaue
off
their
battaile
&
contention
vntill
the
next
daie
,
for
that
as
then
it
was
verie
late
,
he
would
.
Then
Rodaran
hauing
that
offer
,
as
one
that
desired
no
other
thing
,
withdrew
himselfe
,
&
the
Emperour
perceiuing
the
night
at
hand
,
blew
a
rich
horne
of
Iuorie
that
hée
had
at
his
neck
,
the
which
being
knowen
by
his
people
,
they
began
to
withdraw
themselues
and
to
retire
towards
the
Citie
,
the
like
did
the
Pagans
retire
towardes
their
tre●ches
,
sauing
onelie
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
his
sonne
,
who
was
so
fleshed
in
killing
and
slaying
and
shedding
of
bloud
,
that
hée
followed
the
Gréekes
almost
vnto
the
Citie
before
they
would
retire
,
neither
at
that
time
woulde
they
haue
returned
,
but
that
the
valiant
Rosicleer
with
all
those
worthie
knights
returned
vpon
them
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
began
a
terrible
and
cruell
battaile
,
for
that
Bramarant
stroke
such
cruell
blowes
at
the
stout
Oristedes
and
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
that
with
two
alonelie
strokes
hée
amazed
and
lefte
them
without
remembraunce
,
and
made
the
bloud
to
gush
out
at
their
mouths
and
noses
,
at
which
season
came
Brandizel
and
stroke
him
such
an
ouerthwart
blowe
vppon
his
healme
,
that
he
depriued
him
of
his
sight
,
&
made
him
somewhat
astonied
,
but
Brandizel
departed
not
boasting
of
this
blow
,
for
that
Bramarant
turning
himselfe
about
with
his
sword
in
both
his
handes
so
saluted
him
,
that
he
had
fallen
to
the
ground
if
that
he
had
not
embraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
.
In
like
manner
Bradaman
intreated
the
strong
Florion
and
Clauerindo
,
for
that
at
two
blowes
he
left
them
without
remembrance
,
at
which
instant
came
Rosicleer
with
the
good
Emperor
Trebatio
,
and
with
them
the
king
Sacridoro
,
&
in
such
sort
they
began
to
deale
their
blowes
vpon
those
furious
Pagans
and
knights
that
were
in
their
companie
,
that
it
séemed
to
be
no
other
thing
but
a
Smiths
forge
,
for
that
the
great
noise
of
their
blowes
were
heard
throughout
the
whole
armie
,
and
although
it
was
night
,
yet
there
repaired
an
infinit
number
of
Pagans
to
aide
and
help
them
,
but
yet
for
all
that
they
would
not
abide
,
séeing
how
stronglie
they
were
assaulted
and
laide
on
,
vppon
a
sodaine
they
set
spurs
vnto
their
mightie
horse
and
Elephant
,
and
ranne
through
the
rout
of
knights
like
a
whirle
winde
,
and
went
towards
their
owne
campe
as
diuells
that
came
new
out
of
hell
,
méeting
by
the
waie
more
than
one
hundreth
thousand
Pagans
that
came
to
helpe
them
,
and
béeing
night
,
they
all
retourned
vnto
their
trenches
together
,
but
Bramarant
was
so
farre
out
of
charitie
and
angrie
because
that
one
alone
knight
had
almost
all
that
daie
maintained
the
field
against
him
,
that
he
would
not
come
in
the
presence
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
till
such
time
as
hee
in
person
came
vnto
his
tent
,
and
taking
both
father
&
sonne
by
the
hands
,
he
carried
them
both
vnto
his
tent
,
whereas
he
did
them
so
much
honour
as
vnto
his
owne
person
,
and
praysed
verie
much
the
meruailous
déeds
the
which
he
did
that
daie
,
because
he
would
giue
them
contentment
,
for
that
in
the
great
force
and
strength
of
these
two
,
the
Emperour
had
better
confidence
than
in
all
the
kings
and
Captaines
together
in
all
his
whole
armie
.
The
same
night
hée
did
inuite
to
supper
in
his
Emperiall
Tent
,
all
the
most
principall
amongst
them
,
whereas
they
were
together
with
great
ioy
,
pleasure
,
and
pastimes
,
although
it
grieued
them
verie
much
the
death
of
their
kings
which
the
Emperour
Trebatio
●●ew
,
and
there
was
not
one
amongst
them
all
that
was
so
hardie
as
to
praise
the
high
déedes
of
knighthoode
the
which
were
done
by
Rosicleer
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
other
worthie
knightes
their
aduersaries
(
of
whome
they
were
greatlie
amazed
)
for
that
they
would
not
giue
anie
occasion
of
anger
vnto
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
that
were
present
,
who
in
the
time
that
they
were
at
supper
so
frowned
,
and
shewed
so
ill
fauoured
a
countenance
&
fierce
semblance
,
that
it
caused
feare
in
all
them
that
did
behold
them
.
At
this
time
the
Gréekes
were
entered
into
the
Citie
,
and
being
all
lodged
,
euerie
one
according
vnto
his
calling
,
they
all
supped
with
the
Emperour
in
his
mightie
pallace
,
whereas
they
had
inough
for
to
declare
of
the
mightie
power
of
the
two
Pagans
,
and
of
the
wonders
which
they
dyd
in
the
battaile
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
of
new
they
felt
the
lacke
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
saying
,
that
he
and
his
brother
Rosicleer
were
sufficient
for
to
make
resistance
against
those
furious
beasts
,
who
had
made
so
great
slaughter
amongst
the
Gréekes
.
So
that
night
passed
,
and
the
next
daie
in
the
morning
the
dead
bodies
that
appeared
in
the
field
were
of
so
great
quantitie
,
that
they
were
constrained
,
by
reason
of
the
euill
sauour
that
did
procéede
from
them
,
to
take
truce
for
a
certaine
time
for
to
burie
the
dead
&
burne
the
other
.
So
ther
was
ordained
a
truce
for
x.
daies
,
in
which
time
the
Gréekes
dyd
burie
the
Christians
,
and
the
Pagans
did
burne
them
of
their
Nation
,
so
that
the
whole
field
was
cléered
of
all
the
dead
bodies
.
And
leauing
them
at
this
present
,
the
Hystorie
returneth
to
declare
of
man●e
other
things
that
happened
in
the
meane
time
.
How
the
Prince
Meridian
had
vnderstanding
of
the
comming
of
his
father
into
Grecia
,
&
how
he
tooke
the
Princesse
Floralindia
out
of
her
fathers
pallace
,
and
departed
from
Macedonia
,
&
came
into
the
camp
of
his
father
,
hauing
first
in
the
waie
battaile
with
the
stout
Brandimardo
.
Chap.
23.
OF
long
time
this
Hystorie
hath
not
told
you
anie
thing
of
the
valiant
&
worthie
Prince
Meridian
,
not
for
that
hée
in
all
this
time
was
vnoccupied
,
and
that
his
déedes
deserued
not
to
haue
anie
rehear●all
thereof
,
but
onelie
for
to
conclude
and
make
an
end
of
this
first
part
of
the
mightie
Hystorie
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
of
Rosicleer
his
brother
,
which
is
the
occasion
that
héere
his
acts
cannot
bée
mentioned
perticularlie
,
but
remaineth
,
and
it
declareth
vnto
you
all
those
things
which
are
requisite
touching
this
present
historie
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
You
shall
vnderstand
that
the
Prince
Meridian
was
one
of
the
most
noted
Knightes
that
was
amongst
all
the
Pagans
,
who
for
the
loue
of
the
Princesse
Floralindia
turned
Christian
,
and
dyd
after
such
valyant
déedes
of
Knighthood
,
that
hée
alone
deserued
a
Hystorie
to
bée
written
,
but
now
that
which
is
requisite
at
this
present
is
,
that
in
the
time
that
hée
was
in
the
kingdome
of
Macedonia
dooing
many
notable
thinges
in
the
seruice
of
the
Princesse
Floralindia
,
who
shewed
him
great
fauour
,
at
which
time
they
dyd
muster
and
●oy●e
together
many
knightes
and
soiourners
for
the
〈◊〉
and
helpe
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
whereby
hée
vnderstoode
how
the
Emperour
Alycandro
was
comming
into
Grecia
with
all
his
power
,
and
meruailing
verie
much
thereat
,
hée
abode
the
time
to
heare
of
his
ariuall
,
for
to
goe
and
sée
him
,
for
that
he
had
a
great
desire
therevnto
,
and
for
that
the
king
of
Macedonia
and
the
Prince
went
vnto
Constantinople
with
such
people
as
they
had
ioyned
together
,
the
Prince
Meridian
and
the
princesse
had
more
opportunitie
for
to
talk
together
,
so
that
in
the
end
by
reason
that
they
loued
one
another
excéedinglie
,
it
was
agréed
and
concluded
betwixt
them
,
that
the
Prince
should
priuilie
in
the
night
take
her
awaie
out
of
her
Fathers
pallace
,
and
carrie
her
vnto
the
campe
of
the
Emperour
his
Father
,
so
that
first
hée
should
giue
and
graunt
vnto
her
his
faith
to
marrie
her
and
take
her
for
his
wife
.
This
béeing
concluded
in
a
night
when
that
it
was
verie
darke
,
with
a
Ladder
hée
tooke
her
out
at
a
windowe
which
opened
into
a
garden
out
of
her
Chamber
,
and
hauing
Palfraies
all
in
a
readinesse
,
he
tooke
her
and
a
damsell
that
knew
all
her
secrets
,
and
carried
them
awaie
,
and
trauailed
so
much
the
same
night
,
that
when
the
daie
came
,
they
had
put
themselues
verie
farre
into
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
whereas
they
were
sure
not
to
bée
found
,
by
reason
that
it
was
so
great
,
and
so
thicke
of
trées
in
many
places
.
At
their
departure
shée
left
a
Letter
in
her
Chamber
,
dedicated
vnto
the
Queene
her
mother
,
wherein
shée
gaue
her
to
vnderstand
the
effect
of
their
doings
,
requesting
her
to
thinke
well
thereof
,
because
she
had
chosen
and
taken
for
her
husband
the
most
high
and
mightiest
Prince
in
all
the
world
.
At
the
which
sight
the
Quéene
receiued
great
griefe
,
yet
in
the
end
she
did
comfort
her selfe
,
for
that
her
daughter
did
not
loose
anie
honour
in
the
doing
of
the
same
.
Now
to
returne
vnto
the
Prince
Meridian
and
vnto
the
Princesse
,
the
Hystorie
saith
,
that
after
they
had
trauailed
two
daies
in
that
wildernesse
,
&
were
verie
nigh
vnto
the
citie
of
Constantinople
(
finding
themselues
in
a
gallant
and
fresh
shadowe
vnder
a
companie
of
thicke
trées
,
full
of
fragrant
and
swéete
flowers
)
they
sawe
come
towardes
them
running
with
their
horses
as
fast
as
possible
they
could
two
knights
,
and
following
after
them
one
alone
knight
of
a
verie
bigge
stature
and
mounted
on
a
great
horse
,
with
his
sword
drawen
in
his
hand
,
and
ouertaking
one
of
them
,
hée
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
vppon
his
helme
,
that
he
cloue
his
head
in
two
péeces
,
&
ouerthrew
him
vnto
the
ground
dead
,
and
the
other
knight
with
the
great
feare
he
had
,
went
vnto
the
Prince
Meridian
,
and
séeing
him
of
so
gallant
disposition
and
well
armed
,
he
sayd
.
Ah
Sir
Knight
,
saue
and
defend
mée
from
this
traitor
,
who
hath
slaine
the
rest
of
my
companions
,
and
would
also
slaie
mée
.
Then
the
Prince
who
was
indued
with
all
vertue
,
drew
out
his
sword
,
and
put
himselfe
before
that
mightie
knight
that
followed
the
other
,
and
saide
.
Sir
Knight
,
stand
and
kéepe
your selfe
aloofe
,
and
let
vs
vnderstand
the
occasion
wherefore
you
will
in
this
sorte
kill
this
knight
?
Then
the
great
knight
sayde
:
Tarrie
and
I
will
quicklie
make
thée
account
of
this
which
thou
doest
demaund
.
And
therewithall
he
stroke
him
with
his
sworde
in
both
his
handes
such
a
blow
vpon
his
helme
,
that
he
daseled
his
sight
,
and
made
him
to
boow
forwards
vpon
his
saddle
bow
.
Yet
he
boasted
not
much
of
the
striking
of
the
same
,
for
that
the
Prince
stroke
him
such
another
blowe
,
that
he
declined
his
head
to
his
breast
,
giuing
him
to
vnderstand
his
greate
valour
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
betwixt
them
began
a
rigorous
battaile
,
and
they
laide
the
one
vppon
the
other
so
stronglie
,
that
all
the
woods
did
sound
with
the
noise
of
their
blowes
,
and
the
sparkles
of
fire
flew
from
their
healmes
,
as
out
of
a
Smiths
forge
.
In
this
sorte
this
battaile
endured
betwixt
these
two
valiant
knights
one
whole
houre
,
&
there
was
no
vauntage
knowen
of
either
part
.
But
the
Prince
Meridian
was
greatlie
amazed
at
the
mightie
force
and
strength
of
his
aduersarie
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
they
were
equal
vnto
the
blows
which
he
receiued
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
at
such
time
as
he
had
battaile
●ith
him
▪
The
like
thought
his
aduersarie
,
for
you
shall
vnderstand
that
this
stout
and
valiant
knight
was
Brandimardo
,
who
had
trauailed
many
daies
in
those
woods
and
wildernesse
,
in
the
demand
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
to
conclude
with
him
this
battaile
,
and
by
fortune
he
met
that
daie
with
the
foure
knights
that
fled
awaie
from
him
,
&
were
théeues
that
ranged
in
that
wildernesse
,
two
of
them
he
had
slaine
,
and
the
other
two
he
chased
at
such
time
as
hée
met
with
Meridian
,
and
as
these
two
valiant
and
worthie
knightes
had
continued
a
long
time
in
this
their
furious
battaile
,
without
resting
themselues
,
in
the
end
they
began
to
waxe
weary
of
their
great
trauaile
,
and
withdrawing
themselues
a
part
the
one
from
the
other
,
Brandimardo
béeing
greatlie
amazed
at
the
strength
of
his
aduersarie
,
saide
:
Knight
,
let
vs
take
breath
and
ease
our selues
,
for
that
there
remaineth
time
inough
to
make
an
end
and
conclude
this
our
battaile
.
Let
it
be
as
your
pleasure
is
,
sayde
the
Prince
,
but
yet
I
would
gladlie
know
before
we
doe
returne
vnto
the
same
againe
,
what
is
the
occasion
that
moueth
thée
to
make
this
contention
with
me
,
and
to
take
so
much
trauaile
&
paines
for
to
ouercome
me
.
There
is
no
other
thing
that
doth
moue
me
(
sayd
Brandimardo
)
but
onlie
because
thou
doest
deliuer
out
of
my
handes
that
false
knight
which
is
runne
awaie
from
me
,
who
is
a
thiefe
and
a
robber
,
and
kept
companie
with
other
sixe
whome
I
haue
slaine
,
and
ranged
this
wildernesse
,
forcing
of
damsels
,
and
did
great
harme
and
robberies
.
Then
am
I
greatlie
deceiued
(
sayde
Meridian
)
for
I
thought
verilie
that
you
followed
him
to
kill
him
without
cause
,
as
he
tolde
me
,
but
if
it
be
true
as
you
do
tell
me
,
I
am
verie
sorrie
for
that
which
I
haue
done
,
for
I
had
rather
he
should
receiue
the
merite
of
his
desert
,
than
to
contend
with
you
.
These
words
which
Meridian
said
did
not
grieue
Brandimardo
anie
thing
at
all
,
for
that
he
had
〈◊〉
will
to
returne
againe
to
battaile
with
him
,
but
said
:
Sir
Knight
,
the
discharge
which
doest
giue
of
thy selfe
is
reasonable
,
and
therfore
there
is
no
iust
cause
wherefore
we
should
prosecute
anie
farther
our
battaile
,
I
will
be
thy
friend
,
if
so
bée
thou
wilt
be
mine
,
and
I
do
most
heartelie
desire
thée
to
tell
me
who
thou
art
,
for
that
I
cannot
persuade
with
my selfe
that
in
this
Countrie
there
should
be
found
so
valiant
a
knight
as
thou
art
,
but
onelie
he
who
is
called
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
whom
I
doe
goe
in
his
demand
and
séeking
in
this
wildernesse
.
Héerein
(
sayd
Meridian
)
I
am
verie
well
content
,
and
am
glad
that
so
valiant
a
Knight
as
thou
art
wilt
become
my
friend
,
and
héere
I
doe
protest
to
bée
yours
,
and
therefore
you
shall
vnderstand
that
I
am
called
Meridian
,
and
am
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
Lord
of
the
gran
Tartaria
.
Let
all
graces
and
thankes
ascend
vnto
the
high
Gods
(
sayd
Brandimardo
)
that
a
knight
of
so
high
bloud
and
diuine
generation
hath
giuen
himselfe
this
daie
to
bée
my
friend
,
and
therefore
(
worthie
Prince
)
you
shall
vnderstand
that
I
am
called
Brandimardo
,
sonne
vnto
Affricano
king
of
Media
,
who
was
slaine
in
the
warres
at
Babilonia
,
(
of
the
which
warres
I
am
sure
you
haue
heard
off
before
this
time
)
hée
was
a
knight
verie
much
mentioned
in
all
the
Pagan
Countrie
.
Then
Meridian
who
had
heard
great
report
and
mention
of
his
Father
,
was
verie
gladde
of
his
méeting
,
and
embracing
the
one
the
other
,
they
remayned
great
friendes
,
and
a
conclusion
was
made
betwixt
them
for
to
depart
together
vnto
the
Emperour
Alycandro
his
campe
,
at
whose
comming
there
was
great
ioy
and
pleasure
.
This
they
put
straight
waies
in
execution
,
and
departing
from
that
place
they
left
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
and
in
a
few
daies
after
they
came
vnto
the
great
and
mightie
armie
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
who
were
not
a
little
amazed
to
see
so
great
a
multitude
of
people
,
and
of
diuerse
Nations
as
were
there
ioyned
together
.
When
they
came
vnto
the
Emperiall
Tent
,
they
were
knowen
by
the
Emperour
,
who
receiued
them
with
so
greate
ioye
and
pleasure
at
that
present
,
that
there
was
nothing
that
could
giue
him
more
contentment
,
for
that
many
dayes
hée
was
verie
sadde
and
sorrowfull
,
because
hée
coulde
heare
no
newes
of
his
sonne
the
Prince
Meridian
,
and
thought
himselfe
at
that
present
in
so
great
securitie
and
quietnesse
,
as
though
hée
were
in
his
owne
Countrie
of
the
gran
Cataya
.
Likewise
all
such
Pagan
Kings
and
mightie
Lordes
as
were
there
present
,
dyd
honour
Meridian
as
their
naturall
Prince
,
giuing
great
entertainment
vnto
Brandimardo
,
and
receiued
the
Princesse
Floralindia
as
spouse
vnto
so
high
and
mightie
a
Prince
.
The
Emperour
was
verie
gladde
and
ioyfull
at
his
sonnes
aduenture
,
whereas
the
Hystorie
doth
nowe
leaue
them
to
tell
of
other
thinges
which
happened
in
the
meane
time
.
How
the
king
Oliuerio
with
his
mightie
hoast
ariued
in
Grecia
,
and
how
by
the
industrie
and
pollicie
of
the
good
knight
Rosicleer
,
those
of
great
Britaine
had
a
cruell
and
bloudie
battaile
with
the
Pagans
,
&
what
happened
ouer
and
aboue
in
the
same
conflict
.
Chapter
.
24.
IN
the
meane
time
of
the
successe
,
as
the
Hystorie
hath
tolde
you
,
the
king
Oliuerio
ceased
not
to
make
all
the
spéed
possible
towards
Grecia
with
his
great
and
mightie
armie
,
for
after
that
they
had
once
passed
the
Sea
,
they
crossed
ouer
land
through
Almania
and
Germania
,
till
they
came
vnto
Hungaria
,
whereas
the
king
dyd
giue
and
aide
them
with
fortie
thousand
knights
,
the
which
hée
had
in
a
readinesse
,
more
for
to
accomplish
that
the
which
hée
was
bound
for
to
doe
for
the
King
Oliuerio
,
for
that
his
sonne
was
slaine
in
his
seruice
,
than
for
anie
good
will
he
had
towards
those
warres
,
for
with
a
better
good
will
hée
would
haue
holpen
the
Emperour
Trebatio
for
to
make
his
defence
against
his
enimies
,
than
to
doe
that
which
hée
did
,
but
for
●onds
sake
.
When
these
two
armies
were
ioyned
together
,
with
all
spéed
possible
they
trauailed
til
they
came
into
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
and
at
their
ariuall
thrée
miles
from
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
aduertisement
of
the
same
.
Who
séeing
that
almost
all
the
whole
worlde
was
risen
vp
against
him
,
he
praied
vnto
God
to
be
his
aide
and
succour
,
and
that
he
would
not
permit
that
in
such
sort
the
Christian
Countrie
should
be
destroied
.
Then
the
good
knight
Rosicleer
séeing
his
Father
in
so
great
distresse
,
and
he
himselfe
verie
desirous
to
knowe
what
people
they
were
that
were
come
from
great
Britaine
,
hée
went
forth
of
the
Citie
all
armed
with
new
armour
,
which
was
brought
and
giuen
him
by
the
wise
Lirgandeo
,
mounted
on
a
verie
good
horse
,
with
his
speare
in
his
hand
,
alonelie
with
one
Squire
which
did
beare
him
companie
,
and
went
towards
the
hoast
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
&
when
he
came
within
a
mile
whereas
they
laie
,
he
went
vppon
a
little
mountaine
which
was
nigh
vnto
the
high
waie
,
from
the
which
by
reason
that
they
marched
forwards
vpon
plaine
ground
,
he
might
from
thence
discouer
and
sée
all
the
whole
armie
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
part
of
the
hoast
of
the
Pagans
,
and
séeing
so
gallant
a
companie
of
armed
knights
,
and
so
many
Ensignes
with
red
crosses
,
to
make
warre
against
Christians
,
the
one
agaynst
the
other
,
he
receiued
great
sorrowe
and
griefe
at
his
heart
,
séeming
that
all
Christendome
was
then
at
the
point
to
bée
lost
,
and
praied
vnto
God
from
the
bottom
of
his
heart
that
he
would
not
looke
vpon
the
sinnes
of
the
Christians
,
but
in
that
great
extremitie
to
defend
them
with
his
owne
hands
.
Thus
he
being
in
this
Oration
,
he
sawe
come
a
farre
off
towards
that
place
a
knight
,
with
his
galloping
like
vnto
a
post
,
and
séemed
that
he
came
from
the
armie
of
the
Pagans
.
Then
he
falling
into
reckoning
what
it
might
be
(
as
he
that
was
of
a
rare
and
quicke
vnderstanding
)
straight
waies
he
descended
from
the
mountaine
whereas
he
was
,
and
passed
to
the
other
side
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
knight
might
not
sée
him
,
and
ranne
with
his
horse
all
that
euer
he
could
towards
the
host
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
so
that
he
was
a
good
waie
off
from
the
mountaine
,
and
séeing
himselfe
a
good
distance
from
the
knight
,
he
turned
his
horse
about
,
and
little
and
little
he
trauailed
,
dissembling
as
though
hée
had
come
from
that
mightie
armie
.
Then
the
knight
when
hée
had
discouered
him
,
who
was
a
valiant
Pagan
and
king
of
the
Masageras
,
called
Antipatro
,
and
by
the
commandement
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
went
for
to
discouer
&
knowe
what
people
they
were
,
for
that
it
was
tolde
him
that
a
mightie
armie
was
entered
into
Grecia
,
with
Ensignes
and
flags
with
the
armes
of
Christians
,
and
hée
beléeuing
that
they
came
in
the
fauour
and
helpe
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
he
sent
the
king
to
know
who
they
were
,
and
what
companie
of
people
,
onelie
for
that
hée
had
heart
&
good
will
for
to
giue
them
battaile
,
first
before
they
could
recou●r
the
entrie
into
Constantinople
,
for
that
he
was
verie
angrie
and
wrathfull
for
the
other
succour
which
came
vnto
him
before
,
and
being
within
the
Citie
,
it
was
at
the
will
of
his
aduersaries
at
all
times
to
giue
them
battaile
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
to
take
their
ease
at
their
pleasures
,
without
anie
sodaine
alarum
for
to
disturbe
them
.
The
which
was
contrarie
vnto
the
Pagans
,
for
that
it
dyd
behoue
them
at
all
times
to
be
in
a
readinesse
,
because
they
did
not
know
the
time
nor
houre
when
that
their
aduersaries
would
assault
them
,
for
the
which
occasion
the
Emperour
Alicandro
was
verie
angrie
,
and
determined
to
giue
them
battaile
in
the
field
,
before
they
should
haue
anie
time
or
leasure
for
to
recouer
the
entrie
of
the
Citie
,
thinking
they
had
come
in
the
aide
and
succour
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
.
The
king
Antipatro
comming
in
the
demand
,
as
you
haue
heard
,
when
that
hée
came
vnto
the
mountaine
,
went
vnto
the
top
thereof
for
to
discouer
the
whole
armie
that
was
comming
,
&
was
greatlie
amazed
to
see
such
a
multitude
of
gallant
knightes
,
but
when
that
he
sawe
Rosicleer
come
that
waie
,
who
séemed
that
he
came
from
the
hoast
,
with
all
the
spéede
he
coulde
he
descended
from
the
mountaine
,
and
at
the
foote
thereof
hée
did
abide
till
such
time
as
Rosicleer
should
passe
by
,
who
did
salute
him
verie
curteouslie
,
and
the
king
said
.
Tell
mée
sir
Knight
,
are
you
of
that
great
armie
that
is
héere
before
?
I
am
thereof
(
sayd
Rosicleer
)
but
wherefore
doe
you
aske
mée
that
question
?
I
doe
aske
,
(
said
the
king
)
because
I
woulde
knowe
what
people
and
Nation
they
are
,
and
what
is
the
occasion
of
their
comming
hether
.
All
those
that
you
sée
there
comming
(
sayd
Rosicleer
)
be
Christians
,
and
their
comming
is
for
to
defend
Christendome
,
for
that
there
are
so
many
Pagans
ariued
in
Grecia
.
Then
the
king
Antipatro
hearing
these
wordes
,
not
knowing
who
it
was
with
whome
he
talked
and
demaunded
that
question
,
sayd
:
Knight
,
thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
my
Lorde
hath
sent
mée
to
knowe
perticularlie
what
people
those
be
,
and
for
that
I
will
not
staie
for
to
knowe
it
at
thy
handes
in
that
order
,
I
thinke
it
best
that
I
carrie
thée
prisoner
with
mée
,
and
then
thou
maist
declare
it
better
vnto
him
,
and
aunswere
him
vnto
all
that
shall
bée
demaunded
of
thée
,
whereby
hee
shall
bée
fullie
certefied
of
his
request
,
therefore
come
and
goe
with
mée
out
of
hande
,
if
thou
doest
not
determine
first
to
proue
the
great
force
of
my
encounter
,
and
the
swift
course
of
my
horse
.
It
is
follie
(
sayd
Rosicleer
)
of
him
that
is
at
libertie
,
to
become
bondman
vnto
another
,
before
hée
first
proue
a
caréere
,
hauing
Speares
in
our
handes
,
therefore
let
vs
beginne
,
and
hée
that
is
first
pushed
vnto
the
ground
,
let
him
remaine
prisoner
vnto
him
that
kéepeth
himselfe
in
his
Saddle
.
I
am
thereof
verie
well
content
(
sayd
the
Pagan
with
a
gallant
courage
)
but
yet
I
woulde
not
that
by
the
encounter
which
I
shall
giue
vnto
thée
,
that
thou
shouldest
be
hurt
or
receiue
anie
harme
,
whereby
I
could
not
carrie
thée
with
mée
prisoner
.
I
commit
my selfe
vnto
fortune
(
sayde
Rosicleer
)
but
if
it
should
so
happen
it
would
bée
the
worse
for
mée
.
Wherewith
both
of
them
tourned
about
their
horses
,
who
were
verie
fierce
and
swift
,
and
when
they
hadde
taken
the
vauntage
of
the
ground
as
they
thought
best
,
with
great
furie
,
and
like
vnto
a
whirle
winde
they
came
the
one
against
the
other
,
the
Pagan
king
with
great
brauerie
flourished
with
his
Speare
,
thinking
verilie
to
sée
his
aduersarie
on
the
ground
,
but
yet
his
great
pride
fell
out
contrarie
vnto
his
expectation
,
for
that
in
the
middest
of
his
course
,
they
made
their
encounter
in
such
sort
,
that
hée
shèeuered
his
speare
all
to
péeces
vpon
the
hard
harneis
of
Rosicleer
,
without
doing
vnto
him
anie
harme
at
all
,
nor
mooued
him
in
the
Saddle
,
more
than
if
hée
had
encountered
against
an
harde
Rocke
,
but
Rosicleer
made
his
encounter
in
such
sorte
,
that
he
pushed
him
out
of
his
saddle
,
making
him
slie
into
the
aire
,
and
fell
on
his
backe
to
the
grounde
a
great
waie
from
his
horse
,
and
as
Rosicleer
woulde
haue
retourned
againe
vpon
him
,
hée
found
that
hée
was
verie
euill
intreated
with
that
encounter
and
fall
,
so
that
he
coulde
not
arise
from
the
ground
without
greate
paine
and
griefe
,
and
was
so
ashamed
of
that
which
had
happened
,
that
he
had
no
tongue
for
to
speake
one
word
.
Then
Rosicleer
said
:
Sir
knight
,
arise
vp
and
take
thy
horse
,
and
goe
thy
waies
vnto
the
Emperour
Alycandro
thy
Lorde
,
and
declare
vnto
him
all
that
which
hath
happened
vnto
thée
,
and
also
tell
him
how
that
there
is
in
this
armie
so
great
and
infinite
a
number
of
knightes
,
that
with
their
helpe
the
Emperour
Trebatio
will
verie
shortlie
driue
all
the
Pagans
out
of
his
Countrie
.
The
king
Antipatro
was
verie
glad
to
sée
himselfe
at
libertie
,
for
that
he
thought
verily
he
would
haue
carried
him
awaie
prisoner
.
So
without
determining
of
himselfe
anie
longer
,
hée
tooke
his
leaue
of
Rosicleer
,
and
mounting
vppon
his
horse
,
with
all
the
spéede
possible
he
could
,
he
returned
vnto
his
companie
,
and
comming
before
the
Emperour
Alycandro
(
who
was
in
his
tent
with
a
great
number
of
kings
and
Princes
)
before
them
all
he
declared
what
had
happened
vnto
him
with
the
christian
knight
,
and
although
it
was
a
griefe
vnto
them
for
the
aide
&
succour
which
they
thought
was
come
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
yet
could
they
not
let
but
to
laugh
at
that
which
had
happened
vnto
the
king
Antipatro
.
Then
straightwaies
the
Emperour
with
the
consent
and
agréement
of
all
the
principalls
that
were
ther
present
,
commanded
that
they
should
put
in
order
their
battaile
against
them
,
which
they
thought
were
come
in
fauor
of
their
enimies
,
for
that
in
fiftéene
daies
before
they
of
the
Citie
neuer
came
forth
,
and
they
without
were
in
despaire
,
because
it
was
at
the
will
of
them
that
were
within
to
come
forth
when
they
thought
best
,
but
in
especial
those
two
furious
Pagans
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
,
who
were
verie
hungrie
,
and
desirous
for
to
shedde
humane
bloud
.
Likewise
those
valiant
knights
,
Meridian
,
Brandimardo
,
Rodaran
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
and
other
that
were
verie
stout
th●r
present
,
thought
the
time
long
till
such
time
as
they
might
giue
a
shew
of
their
great
bountie
and
strength
,
there
was
in
that
campe
to
the
number
of
fiftie
principall
knights
,
such
as
might
well
be
said
to
be
the
flower
of
all
the
Pagans
,
and
besides
them
there
were
so
infinit
a
number
of
verie
furious
and
stout
Pagans
,
that
there
remained
but
a
few
more
in
all
the
Ilands
of
the
Ocian
sea
,
and
amongst
them
ther
was
twelue
kings
,
subiects
and
vassals
vnto
the
gran
Campeon
,
&
other
twelue
mightie
Lordes
of
other
Ilandes
that
were
subiect
vnto
the
Emperour
,
with
whom
the
Emperour
Alycand●o
thought
that
there
was
no
humane
force
in
all
the
whole
world
that
might
be
compared
vnto
them
.
Thus
being
put
in
a
readinesse
and
good
order
those
which
should
goe
forth
vnto
the
battaile
,
the
gran
Campeon
and
his
sonne
Bramarant
tooke
the
foreward
,
and
had
in
their
company
the
twelue
giant
kinges
,
with
all
those
that
they
brought
out
of
their
Countries
,
besides
those
,
they
carried
fortie
thousand
knights
of
the
Tartarians
,
and
next
vnto
them
followed
Rodaran
king
of
Arabia
,
and
the
stout
king
of
Media
,
the
king
of
the
Partes
,
and
the
king
of
the
Affricanos
,
Candaros
,
and
Baricanos
,
all
the
other
which
wer
verie
valiant
&
stout
,
they
also
carried
with
them
other
fiftie
thousand
Pagans
of
other
Nations
.
The
third
battaile
was
lead
〈◊〉
gouerned
by
that
most
valiant
Prince
Meridian
,
who
carried
in
his
companie
that
stout
Brandimardo
,
&
the
Prince
of
Candaria
with
twelue
Gyants
verie
bigge
,
furious
,
and
terrible
to
beholde
,
which
went
onelie
with
him
for
the
safegard
of
his
person
,
hée
carried
also
fortie
thousand
knightes
of
the
Scitas
.
This
being
done
,
the
Emperour
would
not
ordaine
anie
more
battailes
,
for
that
those
which
were
ordained
,
serued
sufficient
for
to
maintaine
the
battaile
all
that
daye
:
and
being
in
a
readinesse
,
they
remained
,
waiting
till
such
time
as
they
did
appeare
in
sight
with
their
Ensignes
,
for
to
set
vpon
them
,
thinking
them
to
be
their
enimies
.
Now
lette
vs
declare
what
Rosicleer
did
in
the
meane
time
,
who
was
verie
desirous
to
goe
forwards
with
his
pretence
,
after
that
he
had
made
the
contencion
with
the
king
Antipatro
,
he
straight
waies
ascended
vp
againe
that
mountaine
whereas
he
was
before
,
he
had
not
bene
long
there
,
when
that
he
descouered
to
come
from
that
great
armie
of
the
king
Oliuerio
foure
knights
in
maner
of
postes
,
who
came
before
the
rest
for
to
discouer
the
enimie
:
but
when
he
saw
them
somewhat
farre
of
from
the
armie
,
and
nigh
vnto
the
place
where
as
he
was
,
he
descended
from
the
mountaine
,
and
put
himselfe
in
the
high
way
,
and
trauailed
forwards
til
such
time
as
he
met
with
them
,
who
séeing
him
they
went
towards
him
,
and
demaunded
of
him
if
he
were
of
that
countri●
,
I
am
saide
he
,
but
wherefore
do
you
aske
mée
this
question
,
we
doe
aske
thée
this
(
said
one
of
them
)
for
to
know
how
manie
miles
it
is
from
hence
vnto
Constantinople
,
and
to
know
in
what
estate
remaines
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
where
he
hath
aduise
of
our
comming
or
not
,
therefore
knight
aduertise
vs
the
trueth
thereof
,
if
thou
wilt
not
be
our
prisoner
.
To
whome
Rosicleer
aunswered
and
saide
,
as
followeth
.
Of
trueth
I
am
very
well
content
to
certifie
you
of
this
that
you
doe
demaund
of
mée
,
for
that
it
is
not
a
thing
degressing
from
knighthood
,
but
that
I
may
verie
well
do
it
without
anie
compulsion
:
You
shall
vnderstand
that
from
this
place
vnto
Constantinople
,
you
haue
two
miles
,
and
touching
the
estate
of
the
Emperour
,
know
of
trueth
,
that
he
is
all
in
a
redinesse
and
tarrying
your
comming
in
the
field
,
with
no
lesse
mightie
and
puissant
an
armie
,
then
this
which
your
Lord
the
King
Oliuerio
,
doth
bring
with
him
,
and
be
you
assured
of
this
,
that
when
you
shall
come
nigh
within
a
mile
of
the
citie
of
Constantinople
,
he
will
méete
with
you
in
the
way
with
all
his
people
,
and
giue
you
a
verie
terrible
and
rigorous
battaile
.
The
foure
knights
were
verie
much
amazed
at
this
which
Rosicleer
had
told
them
,
for
that
they
thought
verely
that
the
Emperour
had
not
bene
in
so
great
readinesse
,
and
without
any
more
wordes
they
left
him
,
and
returned
from
whence
they
came
,
for
to
giue
aduice
vnto
the
king
,
how
that
his
enimies
were
in
a
redinesse
and
would
méete
him
in
the
way
and
giue
him
battaile
.
So
when
they
came
before
him
,
and
gaue
him
to
vnderstand
of
all
that
had
passed
,
he
straight
waies
commaunded
to
put
all
his
owne
armie
in
a
redinesse
,
for
as
they
were
gallant
and
well
armed
knights
,
it
was
a
iolie
thing
to
behold
:
he
made
then
repetition
of
his
armie
,
and
deuided
them
in
foure
parts
,
the
forefront
he
gaue
vnto
the
gouernement
of
the
two
knights
of
Spaine
,
being
br●thren
,
and
were
of
the
principall
house
of
the
Godos
,
they
were
both
very
valiant
,
the
one
of
them
was
called
Don
Claros
,
and
the
other
Arcalus
,
and
there
comming
vnto
these
wars
onely
for
to
proue
themselues
,
and
giue
to
vnderstand
vnto
the
world
,
their
great
valour
.
These
two
carryed
with
them
fortie
thousand
knights
,
twentie
thousand
of
them
were
of
Spaine
,
and
the
other
twentie
thousand
of
Don
Siluerio
,
and
in
their
companie
went
to
the
number
of
twentie
knights
of
the
Godos
,
who
did
not
a
little
in
this
battaile
.
The
second
battaile
was
giuen
vnto
the
gouernement
of
Don
Siluerio
,
with
other
fortie
thousand
knights
,
and
with
him
went
the
Princes
of
England
,
Ireland
,
&
Scotland
:
the
third
battaile
had
a
principall
knight
of
Hungaria
,
with
all
the
knights
of
that
kingdome
.
And
the
fourth
and
rereward
,
the
king
had
,
with
all
the
high
Princes
of
his
kingdome
,
and
the
rest
of
all
the
people
that
remained
.
When
that
they
were
all
diuided
and
seperated
in
foure
battailes
,
and
in
good
order
and
readinesse
,
they
began
to
march
forwards
by
little
and
little
,
till
such
time
as
the
scoutes
as
well
of
the
one
parte
,
as
of
the
other
,
had
discouered
the
armies
,
which
came
to
the
battaile
,
and
hauing
aduice
of
the
same
,
they
marched
on
the
faster
,
till
such
time
as
the
forewards
of
either
part
,
was
within
a
cros
bow
shot
,
the
one
from
the
other
,
which
might
be
about
two
of
the
clocke
in
the
after
none
.
All
this
time
was
Rosicleer
beholding
what
passed
,
vpon
a
littell
hill
,
where
at
he
receiued
great
contentment
,
thinking
the
tyme
long
to
sée
them
together
by
the
eares
in
battaile
,
his
desire
was
not
long
delated
,
for
as
those
two
●urious
Pagans
,
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
came
before
all
the
rest
,
thinking
the
time
long
to
sée
themselues
amongst
their
enimies
,
they
pressed
forwards
towards
them
with
so
great
furie
,
that
it
s●med
the
earth
to
shake
.
And
although
their
furious
countenaunces
was
sufficient
to
put
in
feare
anie
good
knight
that
did
behold
them
,
yet
those
two
valiant
brothers
,
Don
Claros
and
Arcalus
,
putting
themselues
before
all
their
companie
,
went
forth
to
meete
them
,
and
in
the
face
of
both
armies
,
they
made
their
encounters
verie
strongly
,
Bradaman
,
who
did
encounter
with
Don
Claros
,
lost
his
stirrups
and
declined
somewhat
vpon
his
Elephant
,
and
Don
Claros
embrased
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
,
and
spurring
forwards
his
horse
,
he
setled
himselfe
againe
,
&
passed
forwards
without
falling
.
Bramarant
was
encountered
by
Arcalus
vpon
the
vizar
of
his
helme
,
that
the
sperkes
of
fier
flew
out
in
great
abundance
,
and
being
halfe
amazed
with
that
blow
,
it
made
him
to
lose
his
encoun●er
which
he
made
with
●is
aduersarie
.
So
in
this
sorte
they
passed
all
foure
of
them
,
without
any
falling
,
&
the
two
brethren
were
highl●
co●●ended
by
Rosicleer
,
that
dyd
with
great
content
ment
beholie
them
,
and
also
of
the
Pagans
that
were
there
present
,
for
that
they
had
made
so
strong
and
valiant
resistance
against
the
furie
of
those
two
Pagans
,
the
which
f●ll
out
euell
,
for
a
great
number
,
the
little
profit
that
they
had
by
this
encounter
:
for
being
full
of
great
courage
,
and
encenced
with
anger
,
in
a
short
space
they
furnished
the
wide
and
broade
fieldes
full
of
dead
bodies
of
their
enimies
,
not
sparing
any
degrée
,
that
they
dyed
all
the
grasse
with
bloud
of
the
great
destruction
they
made
on
their
aduersaries
,
and
in
such
sort
they
besturred
themselues
amongst
them
,
that
all
that
did
sée
them
iudged
them
to
be
diuelles
of
hell
,
for
that
they
cut
knights
asunder
in
the
wast
,
slashing
and
cutting
all
that
euer
they
could
reach
,
and
some
they
cloue
from
the
head
downe
vnto
the
girdell
,
with
the
which
their
aduersaries
receiued
so
great
feare
,
that
they
fled
before
them
as
sheepe
before
wolues
,
on
the
contrarie
part
the
two
brethren
dyd
such
maruailes
and
wonders
vpon
the
Paganes
,
that
their
déedes
were
to
be
noted
that
day
:
therewithal
the
first
two
battailes
were
ioyned
together
,
which
was
as
gallant
a
sight
to
be
séene
as
euer
was
,
the
brauerie
of
the
knightes
was
such
,
for
that
in
the
forefront
came
the
twelue
kinges
Giantes
,
with
the
two
thousand
that
came
with
them
from
their
Ilands
,
against
whome
there
went
to
receiue
them
,
twelue
knights
of
the
Godos
,
who
séeing
them
so
great
and
huge
vpon
the
Elephants
,
made
their
encounter
in
such
sort
,
that
the
one
and
the
other
were
ouerthrowen
to
the
ground
:
likewise
,
all
the
rest
made
their
encounters
,
so
that
in
a
moment
,
there
were
more
then
ten
thousand
ouerthrowen
,
and
their
horses
roming
about
the
fielde
,
fighting
one
with
an
other
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
was
a
new
battaile
begunne
:
here
in
this
conflict
,
did
the
knights
of
Spaine
show
their
great
valour
,
for
that
there
was
none
that
did
make
their
resistance
with
so
great
force
against
those
Gyants
,
killing
some
of
them
,
and
rec●uing
their
owne
deathes
with
great
courage
.
In
this
battaile
Don
Claros
slew
one
of
the
twelue
knights
of
Bradaman
,
with
a
speare
that
he
thrust
through
and
through
his
bodie
,
with
a
forcible
and
strong
encounter
.
And
Arcalus
slewe
an
other
with
the
strength
of
his
arme
,
in
tormenting
him
with
his
terrible
blowes
vppon
the
head
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
they
were
in
great
perill
of
death
,
if
that
the
valiaunt
knights
of
Spaine
had
not
come
in
time
to
haue
succored
them
,
for
that
a
great
number
of
those
monsters
had
compassed
them
about
,
who
were
mightie
and
verie
strong
,
so
that
those
two
valiant
bretheren
should
euill
haue
escaped
their
hands
,
but
being
ioyned
together
their
battaile
was
more
equall
then
before
and
better
fought
:
yet
all
dyd
profit
verye
little
the
Christians
for
the
getting
of
the
field
,
for
that
the
bushment
of
those
Orientall
Gyants
,
made
so
great
slaughter
amongst
them
,
that
they
were
not
able
to
make
any
resistance
,
but
to
receiue
cruel
death
.
On
the
other
side
was
those
infernal
pagans
,
father
&
sonne
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
killing
and
slaying
with
great
crueltie
,
all
that
euer
they
could
reach
with
their
swords
,
they
made
so
great
destruction
,
that
it
séemed
there
were
not
people
enough
in
the
campe
for
to
hold
them
play
that
daye
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
within
halfe
an
houre
after
that
the
battaile
was
begon
,
the
Christians
began
to
lose
ground
,
and
to
retyre
towards
their
armie
,
and
in
some
place
they
were
not
content
to
retyre
little
and
little
,
but
turned
their
backes
and
ranne
away
all
that
euer
they
could
,
in
especial
,
there
whereas
was
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
and
the
rest
of
the
other
Gyants
,
who
were
sufficient
for
to
destroy
a
whole
armie
.
Then
when
that
Don
Siluario
sawe
that
the
Christians
lost
ground
,
he
straight
waies
commaunded
that
all
those
of
his
charge
should
march
forwards
,
who
straight
waies
with
great
fiercenesse
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
at
whose
entre
,
many
of
the
Pagans
lost
their
liues
,
and
the
Christians
began
to
get
ground
againe
:
but
straight
waies
that
mightie
knight
Rodaran
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
and
the
other
kings
that
were
with
him
,
put
themselues
●orwards
with
their
people
,
and
when
they
came
vnto
the
battaile
(
by
reason
that
they
were
so
many
,
and
their
captaines
so
valiant
)
they
did
make
great
slaughter
vpon
their
came
in
the
enimies
,
and
to
conclude
,
the
power
of
their
enimies
was
so
great
,
that
they
made
the
Christians
to
runne
awaye
almost
round
about
the
fielde
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
valiant
knights
of
spaine
,
could
not
succour
them
,
for
that
they
were
enclosed
in
battailing
with
the
Gyants
,
and
had
enough
to
doe
to
defende
themselues
from
them
.
Then
straight
vpon
that
,
came
in
the
knig
hts
of
Hungaria
,
at
whose
entrie
,
the
battale
was
renewed
and
began
to
get
ground
,
and
had
put
them
to
the
foyle
,
if
that
the
third
armie
of
the
Pagans
had
not
stepped
forwards
,
in
the
which
came
that
worthie
prince
Meridian
,
and
the
stout
knight
Brandimardo
,
who
entred
into
the
battaile
with
so
great
furie
,
that
that
day
was
wonderfull
vnto
the
Christians
,
and
knew
not
how
and
in
what
sort
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
should
haue
so
great
a
power
of
knights
and
gyants
,
except
they
should
come
out
of
Persia
,
for
that
they
knew
and
vnderstoode
,
that
all
that
countrie
were
in
great
friendship
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
manie
there
were
that
repented
themselues
of
their
comming
into
Grecia
,
in
especiall
Don
Siluerio
,
when
he
saw
so
great
destruction
amongst
his
men
,
and
the
field
so
full
of
dead
bodies
,
the
teares
fell
from
his
eyes
,
with
the
great
sorow
&
griefe
which
he
receiued
at
his
heart
,
and
accused
himselfe
of
the
euill
counsell
which
he
gaue
vnto
the
king
Oliuero
.
When
that
two
howers
was
passed
since
the
beginning
of
the
battaile
,
all
the
people
of
his
part
began
to
retire
,
for
that
they
could
not
suffer
the
great
furie
of
the
Pagans
,
so
that
of
verie
force
and
necessitie
,
it
did
accomplish
the
king
Oliuerio
,
to
enter
into
battaile
with
all
those
knights
that
remained
on
his
charge
,
who
were
manie
in
number
,
and
verie
good
.
And
although
the
Pagans
were
Lordes
of
the
field
,
yet
at
their
comming
they
lost
all
that
euer
they
had
got
before
,
and
the
battaile
renewed
and
better
fought
,
and
the
field
so
full
of
dead
bodies
,
that
the
liuing
could
scarce
passe
for
them
.
Here
was
to
be
noted
,
the
diuelishnesse
of
Bramarant
,
and
his
father
,
and
the
high
knighthood
of
Meridian
,
and
of
Brandimardo
,
and
of
that
stout
knight
Rodaran
,
and
of
the
king
of
Media
,
that
it
might
be
saide
they
were
sepulchres
vnto
the
Christians
:
which
was
not
a
litle
griefe
vnto
Rosicleer
,
(
who
from
that
little
hill
did
behold
all
that
passed
)
for
to
sée
so
much
Christian
bloud
so
spilt
and
shed
,
with
those
heathenish
Pagans
,
although
he
thought
all
might
be
well
suffered
,
for
to
eschue
a
greater
inconuenience
that
(
vnto
the
contrarie
)
might
happen
vnto
Christendome
.
To
conclude
,
the
day
passed
awaie
,
and
there
remained
no
more
but
one
houre
of
the
Sunne
setting
,
when
that
the
battaile
was
in
equall
sorte
,
and
the
one
got
no
ground
of
the
other
,
but
followed
their
entresse
,
the
one
killing
the
other
,
without
all
pittie
,
at
which
time
the
fourth
armie
of
the
Pagans
entred
,
which
were
many
in
number
,
and
entred
with
so
great
furie
into
the
battaile
,
that
those
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
not
being
able
to
suffer
their
force
,
began
to
loose
ground
:
The
which
being
perceiued
by
Rosicleer
,
that
by
no
meanes
they
could
not
,
but
be
ouercome
and
dispersed
,
(
as
one
that
was
a
good
knight
&
verie
pittifull
)
would
vse
charitie
with
them
,
for
that
the
king
Oliuerio
,
was
Father
vnto
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
as
also
for
to
saue
the
liues
of
so
many
Christians
,
which
looked
for
no
other
but
death
that
daie
,
and
hauing
before
sent
aduice
of
all
that
had
passed
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
by
his
page
,
he
then
descended
from
that
hill
,
and
so
fast
as
his
horse
could
runne
,
he
went
vnto
Constantinople
,
whereas
he
sound
the
Emperour
his
father
,
with
all
his
knights
in
a
readinesse
to
goe
foorth
,
if
néed
should
require
.
And
at
his
comming
thether
,
he
declared
vnto
him
in
what
point
and
estate
the
battaile
remained
,
and
in
the
ende
he
saide
,
that
considering
in
how
much
he
was
bound
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
great
loue
that
he
bare
vnto
those
christians
that
came
with
him
,
dyd
constraine
him
that
with
all
the
power
possible
that
he
could
make
,
for
to
goe
and
succour
him
,
for
to
saue
the
king
Oliuerio
from
death
,
and
a
great
number
of
valiant
and
worthie
knights
that
were
at
the
point
to
be
slaine
.
Then
the
Emperour
who
was
no
lesse
endued
with
excelent
vertues
then
his
sonne
,
aunswered
him
as
followeth
.
That
he
should
ordaine
and
doe
all
at
his
owne
will
and
pleasure
,
for
that
therein
he
should
receiue
great
contentment
.
At
which
words
L●iamandro
,
Bargandel
,
and
the
King
Alamades
,
were
verie
glad
&
ioyful
,
for
whatsoeuer
damage
or
harme
should
happen
vnto
king
Oliuerio
,
should
be
great
sorow
and
griefe
vnto
him
,
and
they
dyd
all
praise
&
greatly
alow
the
great
courage
of
Rosicleer
.
Then
straight
waies
and
in
great
hast
,
issued
out
of
the
citie
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
carryed
in
his
companie
all
that
valiant
crue
of
knights
,
with
thirtie
thousand
other
knights
,
all
Gréekes
,
galopping
with
their
horses
,
keping
very
good
aray
and
order
,
they
came
into
the
fielde
whereas
the
battaile
was
,
and
when
they
saw
that
all
the
campe
of
the
king
Oliuerio
wer
dispersed
and
out
of
all
order
and
aray
,
running
some
one
way
,
and
some
an
other
way
,
and
all
those
worthy
princes
of
the
whole
hoast
,
were
compassed
round
about
with
theyr
enimies
,
and
put
in
great
ieoperdie
,
and
at
the
point
for
to
lose
their
liues
,
without
any
hope
of
ayde
and
succour
for
to
deliuer
them
.
At
which
time
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
&
all
those
valiant
knights
that
came
with
him
,
with
great
furie
and
force
,
put
themselues
in
the
middest
amongst
the
Pagans
,
that
again
the
whole
field
was
couered
with
dead
bodies
,
and
it
séemed
that
all
the
furie
of
the
world
came
there
together
,
for
on
the
one
part
went
Rosicleer
,
the
king
Sacridoro
,
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
Bargandel
,
Liriamandro
,
and
other
valiant
and
worthie
knights
,
that
all
they
found
before
them
,
they
slew
and
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
:
and
on
the
other
side
went
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
with
him
the
stout
Florion
,
the
Prince
Brandizel
,
Clauerindo
,
and
the
valiant
and
strong
Oristedes
,
and
the
good
knight
Flamides
,
making
so
great
slaughter
on
their
enimies
,
that
they
were
all
dyed
in
bloud
.
And
the
desire
which
the
good
knight
Rosicleer
,
had
to
kill
Pagans
,
that
they
which
were
with
him
,
were
not
able
to
kepe
him
companie
,
but
all
alone
he
pressed
forwards
and
put
himselfe
amongst
his
enimies
,
doing
such
wonders
,
that
ther
was
not
one
that
could
resist
him
.
And
as
he
pressed
thus
forwards
,
he
came
where
as
he
saw
a
great
number
of
Pagan
knights
gathered
together
in
maner
of
a
ring
,
and
had
in
the
middest
amongst
them
,
fiue
knights
all
on
foote
,
verie
valiantly
defending
themselues
with
their
swords
in
their
hands
,
but
their
aduersaries
were
so
manie
that
charged
them
,
that
before
his
face
,
thrée
of
those
knights
fell
downe
vnto
the
ground
,
as
though
they
had
bene
dead
,
and
the
other
two
were
so
wearie
,
that
their
deathes
were
at
hand
.
And
as
he
●rew
nigh
vnto
them
,
he
saw
that
one
of
the
two
knights
that
defended
themselues
was
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
other
Don
Siluerio
,
whome
he
might
very
wel
know
by
their
armour
,
and
tokens
which
they
had
,
when
he
saw
them
first
enter
into
the
battaile
,
and
those
who
had
compassed
them
about
was
the
king
of
Bartos
,
and
the
king
of
the
Arrianos
,
and
had
crownes
of
golde
vpon
their
healmes
,
with
more
then
fiftie
knights
that
were
about
those
two
knights
,
and
none
nigh
for
to
succour
and
take
their
parts
.
The
which
being
seene
by
Rosicleer
,
with
great
furie
,
he
put
himselfe
amongst
those
companie
of
Pagans
,
killing
and
ouerthrowing
all
that
was
in
his
waye
,
and
with
his
sword
in
his
hand
hée
came
whereas
the
two
kings
were
,
and
stroke
one
of
them
such
a
blowe
vppon
his
righte
shoulder
,
that
the
whole
arme
with
part
of
his
backe
he
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
,
and
stroke
the
other
such
an
other
blow
vpon
the
head
,
that
cleauing
the
Crowne
of
gold
and
the
Healme
,
he
cut
him
downe
to
the
throate
,
so
that
these
two
kings
fell
downe
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
their
horses
which
were
verie
good
,
remained
without
maisters
.
And
for
that
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
Prince
might
haue
leasure
to
mount
vpon
those
horses
,
Rosicleer
began
to
charge
them
with
so
many
&
terrible
blowes
,
that
the
most
part
of
them
that
were
there
together
,
he
slew
with
his
owne
handes
,
and
the
rest
which
remained
,
for
feare
of
death
,
ranne
away
,
but
the
king
and
the
prince
were
so
wearie
,
that
they
had
no
power
to
mount
vpon
those
horses
,
for
the
which
Rosicleer
alighted
with
a
trice
,
and
tooke
the
king
in
his
armes
with
so
great
ease
,
as
if
he
had
bene
a
childe
,
and
set
him
vpon
his
owne
horse
,
saying
,
take
and
receiue
this
seruice
of
Rosicleer
,
in
token
of
a
great
deale
more
that
he
doth
desire
to
serue
you
,
the
which
being
saide
,
he
retourned
vnto
Don
Siluerio
,
and
in
the
same
order
as
he
did
vnto
the
king
,
he
set
him
vpon
〈◊〉
of
the
horses
of
the
Pagan
kings
,
and
he
with
a
trice
mounted
vpon
that
other
,
striking
mortal
blowes
vpon
his
enimies
,
he
departed
from
that
place
,
leauing
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
Don
Siluerio
,
verie
greatly
amazed
at
that
which
he
hadde
done
for
them
,
and
how
he
shewed
himselfe
to
be
on
their
part
.
Also
they
were
verie
glad
and
ioyful
to
sée
themselues
deliuered
from
the
death
which
they
thought
verelie
there
to
haue
receiued
.
At
that
time
the
king
Oliuerio
,
remembred
the
wordes
which
the
wise
Artemidoro
,
had
sayd
vnto
him
,
when
that
in
London
he
carryed
vnto
him
the
gentleman
Rosicleer
,
for
to
be
an
armed
knight
at
his
hands
,
which
was
,
that
the
time
should
come
,
that
he
should
more
estéeme
to
haue
him
by
his
side
,
then
any
thing
in
all
the
whole
world
,
the
which
wordes
were
there
accomplished
,
in
that
he
cléerely
deliuered
him
from
death
.
From
that
place
the
king
&
the
prince
Don
Siluerio
,
did
behold
the
battaile
,
and
were
verie
much
amazed
to
sée
how
the
Christians
had
the
better
hand
of
the
battaile
,
and
that
ther
were
so
many
and
so
good
knights
in
their
fauour
,
ayde
,
and
succour
.
At
this
time
the
battaile
was
so
ioyned
and
knit
together
,
that
if
the
night
had
not
bene
so
nigh
at
hand
,
it
semed
that
their
determination
was
all
to
be
slaine
at
that
instant
,
for
that
,
although
on
the
part
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
there
were
so
valiant
and
worthie
knights
that
were
able
for
to
ouercome
a
mightie
armie
,
yet
on
the
other
part
was
those
two
Pagans
,
Bradaman
Campion
,
and
Bramarant
,
that
dyd
so
great
destruction
on
their
aduersaries
,
that
it
semed
that
there
remained
not
one
before
them
whereas
they
went
:
on
the
other
parte
went
those
furious
and
valiant
knights
Meridian
,
and
Brandimardo
,
with
the
twelue
Gyants
in
their
gard
and
kéeping
,
staying
so
many
of
their
enimies
,
that
they
were
all
stained
in
bloud
,
and
made
great
way
whereas
they
went
.
Likewise
there
was
that
stout
knight
Rodaran
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
with
other
valiant
kings
and
knights
Pagans
,
which
did
great
harme
vppon
their
aduersaries
:
and
although
those
dyd
so
worthely
on
their
parts
,
so
likewise
did
those
valiant
knights
on
the
part
of
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
,
so
much
harme
on
their
enimies
,
that
the
Pagans
bagan
to
lose
ground
by
little
and
little
.
And
as
the
worthie
Rosicleer
,
went
discouering
and
ranging
throughout
the
battaile
,
he
by
fortune
met
with
the
Gran
Campion
,
who
was
all
alone
,
slaying
and
killing
all
that
euer
was
before
him
,
&
c●mming
vnto
him
he
stroke
him
so
cruell
and
strong
a
blow
vpon
the
wast
,
that
he
had
parted
him
in
two
péeces
,
if
it
had
not
bene
for
his
good
armour
,
which
was
such
,
that
his
good
sword
could
not
enter
into
it
,
yet
for
all
that
,
the
blow
did
so
bruse
and
crush
his
bones
and
flesh
,
in
such
sort
,
that
Bradaman
felt
that
blow
not
to
be
like
vnto
the
blowes
giuen
by
other
knightes
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
with
great
furie
he
turned
himselfe
about
,
and
repaide
the
same
with
an
other
like
,
vppon
his
shoulder
,
that
he
had
ouerthrowen
him
to
the
ground
,
if
that
he
had
not
embrased
himselfe
about
his
horse
necke
:
then
began
these
two
to
strike
the
one
vpon
the
other
very
strongly
,
and
the
battaile
betwixt
them
endured
till
the
closing
vp
of
the
night
,
when
that
they
could
not
know
the
one
from
the
other
:
then
the
Pagans
began
to
withdraw
themselues
a
part
,
and
these
two
knights
were
constrained
to
part
themselues
,
but
Bradaman
,
went
away
with
so
great
anger
&
that
one
alone
knight
should
make
him
so
strong
resistance
,
that
no
one
of
all
his
men
durst
come
into
his
presence
.
At
this
time
came
more
then
one
hundreth
thousands
Pagans
,
which
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
did
send
a
fresh
,
after
that
it
was
tolde
him
that
much
people
had
issued
out
of
Constantinople
,
but
their
comming
was
to
little
purpose
,
for
that
it
was
night
,
all
the
troupes
of
the
Pagans
were
retyred
,
and
méeting
the
one
with
the
other
,
they
returned
vnto
their
trenches
,
there
to
take
their
ease
vntill
the
day
following
,
for
that
they
ment
to
encounter
with
their
enimies
with
a
fresh
supplie
.
Then
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
for
to
retire
all
his
people
,
dyd
sound
his
horne
,
the
which
he
alwaies
carryed
with
him
,
like
a
good
Captaine
,
(
at
the
time
of
warre
)
at
which
sound
,
all
the
Gréekes
assembled
together
,
and
leauing
a
part
the
king
Oliuerio
and
all
his
people
in
good
order
,
he
retourned
vnto
the
Citie
with
all
that
noble
crew
of
knighthood
,
whereas
they
were
receiued
with
great
ioye
and
pleasure
of
the
Empresse
Briana
,
and
of
the
farie
Oliuia
,
who
did
not
a
little
reioyce
when
that
she
vnderstood
what
Rosicleer
had
done
for
the
king
her
father
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
her
that
it
was
a
good
meane
to
obtaine
friendship
,
which
was
at
that
time
,
the
thing
that
the
most
desired
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
it
was
a
great
griefe
&
corasiue
vnto
her
heart
,
that
betwéene
the
king
Oliuerio
and
her
spouse
Rosicleer
,
should
passe
any
contention
or
euil
wil.
Thus
leauing
them
the
Historie
doth
returne
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
who
gathering
his
people
together
,
sound
that
he
lacked
more
then
the
halfe
of
those
he
brought
into
Grecia
:
likewise
,
he
commaunded
great
fiers
to
be
made
,
at
the
light
whereof
he
pitched
his
tents
,
and
made
his
trenches
verie
nigh
vnto
the
citie
of
Constantinople
,
whereas
it
was
giuen
him
to
vnderstand
that
all
the
people
with
whome
his
armie
had
the
battaile
with
,
were
Pagans
,
and
were
come
into
Grecia
against
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
of
the
great
power
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
had
there
,
and
how
for
that
he
thought
that
they
were
come
thether
in
fauour
of
the
Gréekes
,
he
sent
out
his
knights
for
to
giue
them
battaile
.
But
when
that
king
Oliuerio
and
Don
Siluerio
vnderstood
the
trueth
thereof
,
with
verie
anger
and
fretting
,
they
were
ouercome
,
and
requested
the
death
,
for
that
on
the
one
part
they
saw
the
most
part
of
their
knights
destroyed
,
and
the
power
of
the
Pagans
deminished
,
the
which
if
that
it
had
not
so
fallen
out
,
the
reuengement
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
had
bene
verie
certaine
.
But
that
which
greued
them
most
,
was
that
which
Rosicleer
did
for
them
,
and
how
much
they
were
bound
vnto
him
,
for
deliuering
of
them
from
death
,
and
it
seemed
vnto
them
to
be
such
a
byt
to
withdraw
them
from
their
wills
and
desires
to
make
their
reuengement
,
determined
before
they
came
foorth
out
of
their
owne
countries
,
who
with
great
confusion
and
verie
pensiue
,
in
thinking
what
was
best
to
be
done
,
they
passed
away
that
night
in
their
trenches
,
and
commaunded
good
watch
to
be
kept
,
till
the
next
day
,
wherein
passed
many
things
,
as
shal
be
tolde
you
in
the
Chapter
following
.
¶
What
Rosicleer
did
the
next
day
after
the
battaile
,
and
how
by
his
meanes
the
king
Oliuerio
was
reconciled
to
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
prince
of
Lusitania
and
he
were
made
friends
.
Chap.
25.
THE
Gréekes
were
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
for
that
which
had
passed
with
the
host
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
Pagans
,
and
all
people
did
allow
the
great
polesie
of
Rosicleer
,
which
he
vsed
in
causing
them
to
ioyne
the
one
against
the
other
in
battaile
,
which
was
not
a
little
profit
vnto
them
,
for
by
that
meanes
his
enimies
were
lessened
more
then
one
hundreth
thousand
.
The
next
day
following
after
the
battaile
,
when
that
both
the
hosts
,
that
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
that
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
were
both
in
sight
of
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
being
none
tide
past
,
Rosicleer
had
a
great
desire
to
goe
forwards
with
that
which
he
had
determined
,
which
was
to
procure
friendship
with
the
king
Oliuerio
,
onely
for
the
great
good
will
which
he
bare
vnto
his
welbeloued
princesse
Oliuia
,
&
also
for
that
in
the
which
he
was
bound
vnto
him
,
for
the
great
friendship
receiued
at
such
time
as
he
was
in
great
Britaine
.
And
with
this
determination
,
he
did
apparell
himselfe
with
the
ritchest
garments
and
robes
that
was
possible
,
&
likewise
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
&
the
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
in
the
most
gallantest
maner
that
they
could
.
Then
after
that
he
had
conference
with
the
Emperour
his
father
,
giueing
him
to
vnderstand
what
was
his
determination
to
doe
,
he
straight
waies
caused
the
princesses
to
be
mounted
vpon
verie
gallant
and
well
dressed
palfries
,
and
mounted
himselfe
vppon
a
mightie
&
great
horse●
and
put
himselfe
in
the
middest
betwéene
them
.
And
béeing
in
this
maner
,
in
the
great
and
wide
court
,
whereas
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
with
all
those
valiant
kings
,
Princes
,
and
knights
,
did
behold
them
,
and
a
new
they
began
to
meruaile
to
behold
their
great
beauties
and
gallant
dispositions
.
And
as
it
hath
bene
declared
vnto
you
before
in
this
Historie
,
that
Rosicleer
was
of
a
high
stature
,
and
well
proporcioned
of
his
bodie
according
vnto
his
height
,
for
that
continually
vnto
that
time
,
he
did
encrease
daylie
more
&
more
,
as
well
in
the
one
as
in
the
other
,
and
ioyntly
with
this
his
face
was
perfect
and
well
proporcioned
,
verie
white
and
faire
,
and
of
a
merrie
couutenaunce
,
and
there
was
none
that
did
behold
him
,
but
had
a
great
delight
to
sée
him
:
he
was
at
that
time
apparailed
in
a
Iacket
of
cloth
of
golde
,
garnished
round
about
with
a
great
number
of
precious
stones
,
and
a
hat
vpon
his
head
after
the
Gréeke
fashion
,
full
of
verie
fine
Rubies
and
Diamonds
,
and
carryed
no
other
weapon
with
him
but
that
precious
sworde
of
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
at
his
girdle
,
which
was
suteable
vnto
the
apparell
he
ware
,
for
that
the
scabbert
was
garnished
with
gold
and
precious
stones
,
he
was
mounted
vpon
a
big
and
lustie
horse
,
all
baye
,
sauing
he
was
full
of
black
spots
,
which
became
him
verie
well
,
and
being
in
this
maner
on
horse
〈…〉
to
be
a
Gyant
,
and
in
beautie
and
fairenesse
,
Narcissus
.
On
the
other
part
was
the
Princesse
Oliui●
,
with
Arquirosa
,
so
faire
and
richlie
apparailed
,
that
it
was
verie
strange
to
behold
,
and
Rosicleer
,
being
in
the
middest
betwixt
them
,
there
could
not
a
more
gallanter
sight
be
sée●e
of
thrée
persons
.
So
in
this
order
they
tooke
their
leave
of
the
Emperour
&
of
the
Empresse
,
and
departed
out
of
that
mightie
pallas
,
being
accompanied
with
all
those
mightie
and
valiqnt
Princes
and
Knights
,
till
such
time
as
they
came
into
the
fielde
out
of
the
Citie
,
whereas
at
the
request
of
Rosicler
,
they
all
retourned
back
againe
,
and
they
thrée
alone
wont
toward
the
compe
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
being
verie
much
looked
at
of
at
the
people
of
the
citie
,
and
with
no
lesse
admiration
they
were
looked
at
by
them
of
the
campe
when
they
came
nigh
vnto
them
,
and
not
knowing
the
pretence
of
their
comming
they
could
doe
nothing
but
behold
them
,
and
abyde
the
time
to
vnderstand
the
effect
of
their
comming
.
When
they
were
come
vnto
the
camp
,
they
asked
which
was
the
tent
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
being
shewed
by
a
knight
that
was
there
,
they
neuer
rested
nor
staied
till
they
came
vnto
it
,
at
which
time
the
king
was
within
,
accompanied
with
the
prince
of
Lusitania
,
and
with
the
other
princes
of
Scotland
and
Ireland
,
consulting
wha●
were
best
to
be
done
in
their
affaires
:
but
when
they
saw
them
&
knew
Rosicleer
,
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
all
apparailed
after
so
gallant
a
sort
,
they
were
wonderfully
amazed
,
and
were
silent
to
heare
what
should
be
their
demand
.
There
was
no
mouing
amongst
them
till
such
time
as
Rosicleer
,
descended
from
his
horse
,
who
straight
waies
alighted
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
and
the
quéene
Arquirosa
,
and
taking
them
both
by
the
hands
they
entred
into
the
tent
,
then
the
king
and
all
that
were
with
him
did
arise
from
their
seates
,
and
dyd
salute
the
one
the
other
,
with
such
courtesie
as
appertained
vnto
so
high
persons
:
and
although
that
Don
Siluerio
,
was
greatly
amazed
and
his
bloud
did
rise
when
that
he
saw
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
yet
when
that
he
saw
her
in
the
power
of
Rosicleer
,
and
considering
the
great
reason
she
had
therevnto
,
he
dyd
not
let
to
haue
a
great
regard
vnto
the
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
and
liked
very
well
of
her
,
and
said
with
in
himselfe
,
that
next
vnto
the
princesse
Oliuia
,
she
was
the
fairest
gentlewoman
that
euer
he
saw
in
all
his
life
,
and
greatlie
desired
to
know
what
she
should
be
.
His
desire
was
quickly
accomplished
,
for
that
Rosicleer
putting
himselfe
before
the
king
,
hauing
the
princes
&
the
Quéene
by
their
hands
,
said
.
HIgh
king
of
great
Britaine
,
I
will
not
call
you
mightie
,
(
for
that
according
vnto
the
opinion
of
wise
men
)
there
is
none
amongst
mortall
men
can
attaine
to
so
glorious
a
name
,
sauing
alonely
he
may
call
himselfe
mightie
,
that
is
Lorde
and
gouernour
ouer
men
,
and
hath
the
power
of
all
fortunes
,
he
at
whose
will
the
Heauens
doth
moue
,
the
windes
doth
blow
,
the
waters
of
the
sea
doth
arise
and
rage
,
and
by
him
the
earth
with
all
beasts
&
plants
are
sustained
:
Here
I
doe
giue
you
the
name
of
high
,
for
that
séeing
your selfe
in
what
estate
you
are
in
,
you
may
know
how
perilous
and
slipper
it
is
,
and
how
readie
you
are
and
open
vnto
the
thundering
blowes
of
fortune
.
Many
things
doth
men
begin
and
put
in
vre
,
who
cannot
bring
it
to
passe
as
they
would
,
and
according
vnto
their
mindes
,
but
in
the
ende
it
finisheth
cleane
contrarie
vnto
their
expectation
,
and
this
procedeth
onely
for
that
it
is
in
theyr
hands
to
begin
them
,
and
in
the
power
of
God
to
giue
the
conclusion
vnto
his
pleasure
.
Our
hearts
he
valiant
and
couragious
,
for
to
attempt
against
all
the
whole
world
,
and
doe
not
consider
and
sée
that
humaine
force
is
so
féeble
and
weake
,
that
one
little
and
hidden
euill
,
doth
ouercome
it
,
and
whatsoeuer
blow
of
fortune
doth
ouerthrow
it
.
This
we
ought
to
haue
alwaies
in
our
remembraunce
,
because
we
should
not
put
our selues
in
difficult
things
,
for
that
if
afterwards
it
doth
not
fall
out
according
vnto
our
mindes
,
then
should
we
not
haue
any
occasion
for
to
be
angrie
,
neither
reason
for
to
complaine
vs
of
fortune
,
for
that
the
whole
fault
is
in
our selues
,
and
with
more
reason
we
may
be
angery
with
our selues
.
You
doe
well
vnderstand
how
that
the
Prince
Edward
your
sonne
with
fortie
thousand
good
knights
of
great
Britaine
,
came
into
Hungaria
,
with
what
intent
.
I
doe
not
iudge
,
but
according
as
it
was
notorious
and
manifest
vnto
all
,
he
came
for
to
destroy
the
Emperour
my
father
,
&
for
to
make
the
king
of
Hungaria
Lord
ouer
all
Grecia
,
and
for
that
this
was
an
attempt
as
vniust
as
difficult
,
it
was
in
his
hands
to
begin
the
same
,
but
in
the
hands
of
him
that
hath
power
ouer
all
,
to
conclude
the
ende
according
vnto
his
will
.
If
the
Emperour
my
father
was
to
be
blamed
herein
,
iudge
you
,
and
then
sée
if
there
be
anie
reason
for
him
to
make
restitution
,
to
whome
fortune
would
seme
fauourable
:
but
now
let
that
goe
,
for
that
I
doe
beléeue
you
are
certified
.
And
touching
the
marriage
which
I
made
with
the
princesse
Oliui●
without
your
lisence
,
I
will
giue
you
to
vnderstand
,
that
if
you
doe
well
consider
and
looke
into
all
these
things
passed
,
then
should
you
verie
manifestlie
and
cléerelie
sée
,
that
it
is
not
for
anie
iniurie
towards
you
,
but
that
the
diuine
prouidence
hath
ordained
the
same
for
to
euitate
and
cut
off
the
great
griefe
and
innumerable
euils
that
were
looked
for
betwéene
my
father
and
you
,
for
séeing
that
the
harme
was
committed
,
there
was
no
other
meanes
for
to
recouer
and
make
friendship
againe
,
but
onelie
by
this
marriage
betwixt
vs
,
by
the
which
my
father
doth
claime
of
you
kindred
,
and
you
may
receiue
mée
as
your
owne
naturall
sonne
,
and
séeing
that
this
hath
ben
ordained
by
the
diuine
prouidence
,
who
is
he
that
shoulde
grant
me
this
inclination
,
to
haue
so
great
a
desire
as
I
had
for
to
goe
into
great
Britaine
,
being
in
such
delightes
,
ioye
,
and
pleasure
,
vnder
the
wings
of
the
Empresse
my
mother
?
Consider
with
how
much
honour
,
(
you
n●t
knowing
mee
)
I
receiued
the
order
of
knighthood
at
your
hands
,
and
how
fauourable
Fortune
did
alwaies
shew
her selfe
vnto
mee
in
your
Court
?
What
force
could
be
so
great
,
that
did
constraine
my
will
,
and
the
will
of
this
precious
Princesse
,
so
perfectlie
to
loue
the
one
other
,
in
such
sort
that
there
is
nothing
in
all
the
world
that
may
bee
compared
therevnto
?
In
what
heart
may
be
comprehended
so
great
singularitie
(
no
,
that
although
there
were
heere
present
those
three
worthie
and
famous
Captaines
,
Iosue
,
Dauid
,
and
Iudas
Machabeus
,
and
with
them
th●se
thrée
Pagans
,
Hector
,
Iulius
Caesar
,
and
Alexander
)
if
it
doth
not
come
of
the
diuine
prouidence
,
neither
without
it
could
there
be
anie
such
force
comprehended
in
me
,
and
in
my
companion
,
for
to
giue
the
enterprise
of
such
an
attempt
with
so
great
boldnesse
,
for
to
take
away
ou●
of
your
power
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
and
what
wée
passed
at
the
sea
to
deliuer
and
defend
her
?
Heere
is
the
Prince
of
Lusitania
who
found
himselfe
present
at
the
sport
,
and
can
saie
that
the
resistance
was
not
made
by
anie
humane
force
and
strength
,
for
that
being
but
fiue
knights
,
we
alone
did
defend
our selues
so
long
time
against
so
great
a
fléete
of
ships
and
men
.
Likewise
hée
can
declare
of
the
great
miserie
in
the
aide
and
succour
that
came
vnto
vs
in
that
great
extremitie
.
I
will
not
héere
inlarge
nor
procéede
anie
farther
in
these
matters
,
neither
wold
I
haue
said
so
much
,
but
onelie
because
you
shall
vnderstand
that
all
doth
procéede
from
aboue
,
and
that
it
is
Gods
will
,
that
this
marriage
betwixt
me
and
the
Princesse
shall
be
the
occasion
for
to
euitate
and
take
awaie
all
these
inconueniences
which
are
looked
for
,
and
likewise
to
remedie
and
make
attonement
for
all
that
is
past
,
&
do
you
not
thinke
that
this
wil
bée
an
euil
meane
for
things
past
,
besides
,
as
now
the
doing
thereof
cannot
be
restrained
,
and
many
times
,
as
héeretofore
hath
fallen
out
,
their
sonnes
in
lawe
to
be
as
profitable
to
their
Fathers
in
lawe
,
as
are
their
owne
naturall
sonnes
.
As
to
aske
the
question
of
Caesar
Augustus
,
and
hée
will
saie
that
there
was
neuer
sonne
to
true
and
trustie
vnto
his
Father
,
as
was
vnto
him
Marcus
Agrippa
his
sonne
in
law
.
Likewise
consider
of
Antonius
Pius
who
had
for
his
sonne
in
lawe
Marcus
Aurelius
,
who
vsed
so
great
fidelitie
with
him
all
the
daies
of
his
life
,
which
was
for
the
space
of
twentie
and
thrée
yéeres
,
that
for
his
great
fidelitie
and
continuall
diligence
,
hée
did
not
alonelie
deserue
to
bée
beloued
of
him
,
and
to
haue
his
Daughter
,
but
as
his
owne
naturall
sonne
hée
dyd
succéede
him
in
the
Empire
.
So
that
by
these
and
many
other
examples
that
might
bée
declared
,
you
maye
plainelie
sée
what
a
swéete
spice
of
friendshippe
and
perfect
kindred
is
that
which
commeth
by
the
Sunne
in
lawe
,
and
in
especiall
this
,
that
from
the
beginning
vnto
the
end
,
it
appeareth
to
bée
goue●ned
by
the
diuine
prouidence
,
so
that
thereby
there
is
no
other
thing
to
be
looked
for
,
but
vnto
you
great
good
,
and
●●rie
profitable
for
all
your
kingdom●
.
And
that
whic●
〈◊〉
I
will
desire
of
you
is
no
other
thing
,
but
your
plesure
〈◊〉
●●●sider
how
that
al
these
things
are
ordained
by
him
,
who
●ath
the
rule
&
gouernment
of
al
,
and
being
fullie
perswaded
therein
,
for
to
ioyne
&
confirme
your
will
vnto
his
will
,
and
to
procure
&
doe
no
other
thing
but
that
which
is
agréeable
vnto
his
pleasure
,
which
is
to
confirme
a
peace
betwixt
you
and
my
Father
,
for
that
you
be
both
Christians
,
and
it
is
the
thing
that
our
sauiour
Iesus
Christ
dyd
leaue
most
in
charge
vnto
his
Disciples
.
And
if
there
séemeth
vnto
you
anie
fault
to
bée
in
the
Emperour
my
Father
,
or
that
I
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
haue
offended
your
Maiestie
in
anie
thing
,
apart
and
put
awa●e
from
your
heart
all
anger
and
wrath
,
for
that
you
doe
vnderstand
,
that
the
most
noblest
manner
of
reuengement
is
to
forgiue
,
and
how
that
there
is
nothing
so
inconuenient
and
hurtfull
vnto
man
as
is
wrath
and
anger
,
for
that
it
doth
properlie
appertaine
vnto
furious
beastes
,
and
not
vnto
men
,
but
vnto
such
as
bée
most
cruell
and
furious
,
and
to
the
contrarie
there
is
nothing
more
conuenient
vnto
man
than
is
méeknesse
and
mercie
,
and
much
better
and
more
honour
it
is
to
forget
iniuries
,
than
to
reuenge
them
,
and
there
is
not
a
more
nobler
and
generous
forgetting
,
than
is
in
the
offence
,
which
was
attributed
vnto
the
prince
of
Captaines
for
that
he
did
praise
himselfe
,
that
hée
did
neuer
forget
anie
thing
but
offences
done
.
The
pleasure
in
taking
reuengement
doth
passe
awaie
in
a
moment
,
and
the
ioy
&
pleasure
in
shewing
mercie
endureth
for
euer
.
There
is
nothing
so
necessarie
amongest
men
,
nor
ought
to
bée
more
common
than
to
forgiue
,
for
that
there
is
none
but
hath
néede
of
mercie
,
séeing
that
the
Sunne
must
shine
vpon
him
,
the
earth
sustaine
him
,
and
all
creatures
must
bring
forth
.
The
winde
must
haue
his
course
,
the
clowdes
must
poure
out
their
waters
,
the
S●ars
must
haue
their
influence
,
the
heauens
must
moue
,
and
the
waues
of
the
sea
must
bée
in
quiet
,
and
not
to
ouerwhelme
the
earth
when
they
are
in
a
rage
and
higher
than
it
,
and
to
conclude
,
all
things
of
the
gouernment
of
this
worlde
doth
vse
Mercie
,
and
be
necessari●
for
the
conseruation
of
humane
life
,
and
mercie
cannot
be
lacking
in
him
,
or
at
least
waies
may
not
,
that
cannot
sustaine
himselfe
one
iote
without
it
,
and
that
which
is
more
,
there
is
not
one
but
that
hée
sinneth
,
so
that
hée
cannot
,
but
hée
néedes
must
desire
mercie
for
his
sinnes
and
offences
.
What
is
hée
that
can
salue
and
make
whole
the
wounded
consciences
of
humane
creatures
,
if
the
wrath
of
God
doth
perseuer
,
then
shall
you
neuer
haue
end
of
contentions
and
troubles
,
armour
shall
neuer
cease
on
the
land
,
neither
lightnings
and
thunders
,
with
cruell
shaking
of
the
heauens
,
therefore
it
is
necessarie
(
most
worthie
King
)
that
you
doe
forgiue
,
and
refraine
the
ire
of
your
heart
,
for
otherwise
with
iust
reason
you
cannot
aske
of
God
pardon
,
when
that
you
will
not
vse
pardon
with
your
daughter
and
sonne
in
lawe
.
Beware
,
take
héede
,
and
helpe
your selfe
from
that
which
is
written
,
That
man
doth
kéepe
wrath
and
ire
a-against
man
,
and
both
doth
séeke
vnto
God
for
Physicke
.
You
are
wise
and
discréete
,
therefore
you
shall
vnderstand
,
that
all
this
which
I
haue
said
vnto
you
,
is
onely
to
put
you
in
remembraunce
,
that
the
passioned
minde
can
neither
sée
nor
discerne
things
farre
nor
nigh
hand
.
And
as
concerning
Don
Siluerio
,
I
haue
committed
nothing
against
him
wherin
I
am
bound
to
make
satisfaction
,
neither
hée
to
pardon
me
,
for
if
you
haue
promised
vnto
him
the
Princesse
Oliuia
for
wife
,
first
before
that
she
chose
me
for
her
husband
,
God
and
my
good
fortune
hath
giuen
her
vnto
mee
,
so
that
hee
hath
not
to
complaine
himselfe
but
of
fortune
,
that
woulde
not
be
fauourable
vnto
him
for
to
recouer
her
,
so
that
I
doe
not
take
from
him
her
that
should
haue
bene
his
wife
,
but
I
haue
taken
out
of
your
and
his
power
,
the
same
whome
God
did
promise
and
ordaine
to
giue
me
for
wife
.
Notwithstanding
for
all
this
,
I
euer
hadde
Don
Siluerio
for
my
friend
,
and
before
that
these
things
fell
out
in
this
order
,
I
beléeued
that
he
had
mée
in
the
same
profession
,
I
do
greatlie
desire
that
this
friendshippe
may
procéede
and
goe
forwards
,
and
if
so
be
that
anie
lacke
or
fault
hath
béene
of
anie
part
,
let
satisfaction
be
made
for
the
which
I
for
my
part
will
make
satisfaction
vnto
Don
Siluerio
,
in
giuing
vnto
him
for
wife
,
the
most
faire
and
precious
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
Quéene
of
Thessalia
,
and
is
this
that
is
héere
present
with
me
,
who
with
all
the
power
that
shée
could
make
came
into
Grecia
,
to
the
aide
and
succour
of
the
Emperor
my
Father
,
&
it
is
in
my
power
,
for
I
haue
promised
her
to
giue
her
a
husband
,
such
a
one
as
her
estate
&
beautie
doth
deserue
,
therefore
Don
Siluerio
consider
&
sée
if
you
can
like
of
this
〈◊〉
,
for
that
there
be
few
damsels
,
or
not
one
,
at
this
time
●o
bée
found
in
the
world
with
whom
you
may
be
better
married
withall
than
her
.
Now
haue
you
vnderstood
the
effect
of
our
comming
,
and
héere
I
doe
desire
you
both
straight
waies
to
giue
me
your
answere
.
The
king
Oliuerio
was
verie
attentiue
vnto
all
that
was
spoken
by
Rosicleer
,
and
one
waie
he
liked
verie
wel
of
their
intent
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
all
things
were
placed
in
verie
good
order
,
and
another
waie
,
the
gallant
presence
of
Rosicleer
with
the
faire
Princesse
Oliuia
seemed
to
force
&
constraine
his
heart
to
like
verie
well
of
the
one
&
to
loue
the
other
,
as
his
owne
naturall
children
,
and
seeing
them
with
so
great
humilitie
before
him
,
Rosicleer
being
so
high
a
Prince
,
hauing
confidence
that
in
his
great
bountie
he
came
to
aske
him
pardon
&
forgiuenesse
,
not
mistrusting
his
highnesse
,
the
teares
gushing
out
at
his
eies
with
the
great
loue
he
bare
vnto
either
of
them
,
&
calling
to
remembrance
that
by
him
he
was
deliuered
from
death
the
daie
before
,
so
that
if
it
had
not
bene
for
him
he
had
béen
sla●●e
and
all
his
people
destroied
,
and
seeing
the
great
clemencie
that
both
Father
and
sonne
vsed
with
him
(
he
comming
to
destroie
them
in
his
Countrie
)
he
found
it
great
reason
to
vse
the
same
with
them
,
and
to
forget
the
death
of
Prince
Edward
,
for
that
God
had
giuen
vnto
him
in
his
place
that
valyaunt
Prince
and
knight
.
Thus
hauing
his
minde
occupied
in
these
and
other
things
,
hee
remained
a
good
while
without
〈◊〉
wering
them
,
looking
alwaies
when
Don
Siluerio
wold
speake
,
because
the
greatest
part
of
the
matter
did
touch
him
,
and
till
such
time
as
he
did
knew
his
will
,
he
thought
it
not
good
to
vtter
his
iudgement
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
he
did
importune
him
verie
much
to
make
the
first
answere
as
he
thought
best
,
who
after
such
time
as
the
Quéene
entered
into
the
tent
,
was
continuallie
with
great
attention
beholding
her
whose
beautie
gaue
him
greater
contentment
than
anie
Ladies
or
Gentlewoman
in
the
world
,
next
vnto
the
Princesse
Oliuia
.
And
when
he
vnderstood
the
demand
of
Rosicleer
,
in
his
life
he
neuer
receiued
greater
ioy
&
contentment
,
in
séeing
that
without
anie
demand
or
asking
,
he
offered
vnto
him
so
high
a
Ladie
and
damsell
for
wife
,
&
had
cleane
forgotten
all
the
anger
and
wrath
that
he
had
before
conceiued
and
taken
against
Rosicleer
,
with
the
friendship
receiued
of
him
the
daie
before
in
deliuering
of
them
from
death
.
So
perceiuing
that
the
king
would
not
answere
in
anie
respect
till
such
time
as
he
had
vittered
his
minde
,
hée
spake
these
wordes
following
.
HIgh
and
worthie
Prince
of
Grecia
,
of
all
that
you
haue
héere
so
highlie
declared
,
as
also
of
all
other
things
that
haue
so
prosperouslie
fallen
out
on
your
part
,
I
do
vnderstand
no
other
thing
but
that
God
hath
created
you
amongst
all
Princes
the
most
highest
,
&
amongst
al
knights
the
most
noblest
,
and
in
strength
the
most
stoutest
,
&
amongest
men
of
vnderstanding
the
most
wisest
,
and
aboue
all
fortune
hath
shewed
her selfe
fauourable
and
prosperous
,
for
whosoeuer
doth
consider
the
highnesse
of
your
estate
,
shall
plainlie
sée
&
perceiue
that
there
is
none
that
commeth
nigh
vnto
you
,
&
for
worthinesse
,
none
equall
,
and
to
consider
of
your
high
knighthood
,
they
shall
see
that
it
is
without
comparison
,
and
almost
aboue
nature
,
likewise
considering
how
prosperous
all
things
hath
fallen
out
on
your
part
,
they
will
not
onelie
saie
that
fortune
is
fauourable
vnto
you
,
but
also
that
you
haue
her
at
commandement
to
do
al
things
at
your
pleasure
,
and
séeing
that
you
haue
so
many
and
high
things
on
your
side
,
what
enimie
is
there
that
will
resist
you
,
or
friend
that
will
loose
your
friendship
.
The
wise
man
saith
,
that
there
are
thrée
things
which
ought
to
be
feared
:
the
waues
of
the
sea
,
the
thunderbolts
of
the
heauens
,
&
the
furious
wild
beasts
on
the
earth
:
but
yet
aboue
all
things
(
he
saith
)
ought
to
bée
feared
,
the
enimie
prosperous
&
fortunable
,
for
that
he
which
doth
not
nauigate
at
the
Sea
,
is
out
of
all
daunger
of
the
waues
,
and
he
that
kéepeth
his
house
,
is
out
of
the
danger
of
wilde
beasts
,
and
the
thunderbolts
verie
seldome
strikath
,
but
from
the
prosperous
enimie
,
there
is
none
that
can
apparte
himselfe
,
neither
can
he
finde
anie
place
whether●
to
runne
,
for
whereas
he
thinketh
himselfe
most
surest
,
many
times
it
falleth
out
,
that
there
is
most
perill
,
and
héere
I
say
that
fortune
hath
shewed
her selfe
more
prosperous
vnto
you
than
vnto
anie
,
and
vnto
me
more
contrarie
than
vnto
anie
other
,
for
that
she
did
not
content
her selfe
in
giuing
you
the
victorie
ouer
me
,
but
the
more
to
cralt
you
,
shée
brought
me
into
that
extremitie
,
that
of
necessitie
I
must
be
defended
from
death
,
and
receiue
life
at
your
hands
,
the
which
you
gaue
mée
as
a
friend
,
whereby
you
got
of
mee
the
greatest
victorie
that
euer
man
had
of
his
enimie
.
Therefore
God
forbid
that
now
I
should
haue
anie
enmitie
with
him
,
who
with
the
great
force
and
strength
of
your
arme
dyd
ouercome
me
,
and
I
doe
yéeld
my selfe
vnto
the
strength
of
your
worthinesse
,
and
this
offer
which
you
doe
promise
vnto
me
with
the
precious
Quéene
Arquirosa
is
of
so
great
highnesse
&
valour
,
that
with
iust
reason
I
may
thinke
that
shée
will
bée
the
occasion
that
I
shall
conclude
friendship
with
you
,
yet
God
who
doth
know
the
secrets
of
all
things
,
I
doe
take
to
witnesse
,
that
I
am
not
constrained
by
loue
to
take
you
for
my
friend
,
but
onelie
your
great
vertue
doth
binde
me
therevnto
,
and
this
being
a
meane
betwixt
vs
,
I
saie
that
this
is
the
greatest
friendship
that
euer
I
might
receiue
of
anie
humane
creature
,
this
thing
which
you
doe
●ffer
vnto
me
(
not
being
of
me
d●serued
)
to
giue
me
so
high
a
damsell
and
worthie
a
Princesse
to
be
my
wife
,
whom
from
this
time
forwards
,
if
she
be
so
pleased
,
I
do
receiue
for
my
Ladie
and
Mistres
:
likewise
I
do
desire
her
to
conceiue
so
wel
of
me
,
&
to
take
me
for
her
owne
,
&
héere
I
do
desire
the
king
Oliue●io
my
Lord
,
to
aunswere
vnto
the
rest
that
remaineth
,
&
I
hope
in
God
that
his
answere
shall
be
such
,
as
he
is
bound
to
giue
vnto
so
excellent
a
sonne
,
and
therewithall
Don
Siluerio
concluded
his
reasons
,
&
the
king
with
great
contentment
with
that
which
he
had
said
:
but
the
answere
which
the
king
made
was
in
embracing
Rosicleer
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
with
shedding
many
teares
that
trickled
downe
his
chéekes
with
pure
loue
,
he
said
.
Oh
my
welbeloued
children
,
God
forbidde
that
in
mée
should
raigne
so
great
ingratitude
against
his
soueraigne
maiestie
,
and
to
let
you
vnderstand
and
know
the
great
curtesie
that
he
hath
shewed
vnto
me
,
in
giuing
mée
so
good
fortune
,
as
by
his
owne
handes
is
come
vnto
me
so
precious
children
,
héere
I
doe
receiue
you
,
and
I
doe
loue
you
,
and
will
not
haue
,
neither
do
I
looke
for
anie
other
contentment
in
all
the
world
.
The
almightie
God
doth
know
,
and
he
is
a
good
witnesse
therevnto
,
that
I
came
not
forth
out
of
great
Britaine
with
so
great
a
multitude
of
knightes
for
anie
euill
will
that
I
had
,
but
for
to
accomplish
that
wherein
I
was
bound
vnto
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
,
and
now
séeing
that
he
is
content
and
satisfied
,
there
remaineth
no
other
thing
,
but
let
vs
goe
vnto
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
whereas
I
may
acknowledge
and
know
the
Emperor
and
Empresse
for
my
brother
and
sister
,
and
aide
and
helpe
him
with
these
few
knights
that
doth
remaine
.
When
the
king
had
sayd
these
wordes
,
Rosicleer
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
did
knéele
downe
before
the
king
,
and
by
force
did
kisse
his
hands
,
but
the
king
with
words
of
great
loue
did
cause
them
to
arise
,
embracing
them
many
times
,
and
went
and
embraced
the
faire
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
and
said
,
I
doe
now
acknowledge
that
all
these
things
are
ordained
by
the
will
and
disposition
of
almightie
God
,
in
that
I
doe
see
so
excellent
a
Damsell
hath
béene
reserued
and
kept
,
and
now
at
this
time
come
hether
,
to
the
satisfacti●n
of
the
Prince
D●n
Siluerio
,
and
I
beséech
his
almightie
maiestie
to
giue
you
so
good
fortune
as
I
doe
desire
for
my selfe
,
and
therewithall
Rosicleer
and
Don
Siluerio
did
embrace
one
another
,
&
from
that
daie
forwards
there
was
betwixt
them
great
loue
and
friendshippe
.
Therewith
came
all
the
rest
of
the
worthie
Princes
and
Knightes
,
(
such
as
knew
him
in
great
Britaine
,
)
and
talked
with
him
,
who
neuer
forgot
the
greate
friendshippe
that
was
betwixt
them
.
Lykewise
the
knigh●●s
of
Spaine
for
the
valiant
déedes
which
they
sawe
him
〈◊〉
in
the
battaile
,
as
also
for
the
greate
fame
which
〈…〉
heard
of
him
,
with
excéeding
good
will
came
and
offered
themselues
to
bée
his
friends
.
Then
hée
who
had
them
in
great
estimation
,
did
offer
vnto
them
the
like
,
and
estéemed
them
for
the
most
stoutest
and
valiantest
knights
that
were
in
all
the
armie
.
Thus
after
that
they
had
bene
together
in
these
ceremonies
,
receiuing
the
one
the
other
a
good
while
,
they
all
mounted
vpon
their
horses
,
and
the
princesse
Oliuia
and
the
Quéene
Arquirosa
vpon
their
palfraies
,
and
tooke
their
waie
towards
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
lead
the
Quéene
A●qui●osa
by
the
bridle
,
with
whom
he
vsed
many
loue
trickes
and
amorous
discourses
,
and
shée
likewise
answered
him
with
a
gallant
grace
and
curteous
demeanour
giuing
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
for
that
so
worthie
a
Prince
had
g●uen
him
vnto
her
for
to
be
her
husband
,
and
receiued
great
contentment
.
They
had
not
long
trauailed
in
this
order
towards
the
Citie
,
but
the●
sawe
a
farre
off
come
out
of
the
Citie
a
great
companie
of
gall●nt
and
glistering
knightes
comming
towardes
them
,
it
was
the
Emperour
●rebatio
accompanied
with
all
his
nobles
and
valiant
knightes
,
who
beeing
aduertised
by
a
Page
of
Rosicleers
of
all
that
passed
,
and
of
their
comming
towardes
the
Citie
,
issued
out
to
méet
them
,
and
when
they
came
nigh
the
one
vnto
the
other
,
the
king
and
all
those
that
were
with
him
,
we●e
greatlie
amazed
at
the
gallant
and
gentle
disposition
of
the
Emperour
,
and
of
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
that
came
with
him
,
and
sayd
that
all
the
flower
and
worthinesse
of
knighthood
in
the
world
was
there
ioyned
together
.
Then
straightwaies
the
Emperour
went
towardes
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
one
receiued
the
other
with
so
great
loue
,
and
with
such
excéeding
courtesie
,
as
commonlie
is
vsed
betwixt
so
high
persons
,
and
at
that
instant
was
there
confirmed
betwixt
them
such
and
so
great
friendship
,
that
neuer
after
so
long
as
they
liued
was
separated
.
Then
the
Emperour
receiued
the
other
knightes
with
so
gallant
grace
and
demeanour
,
that
they
all
receiued
great
contentment
at
the
sight
of
him
,
but
most
especiallie
the
king
Oliuero
that
was
talking
with
Bargandel
,
Lyriamandio
,
and
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
,
and
the
king
Alamades
,
who
all
together
went
and
kissed
his
handes
,
crauing
pardon
of
all
that
was
passed
.
Then
he
with
great
loue
did
embrace
them
all
,
pardoning
all
the
rancour
and
euill
will
that
he
had
against
them
,
and
it
séemed
verie
well
vnto
him
,
in
that
they
had
shewed
themselues
so
faithfull
,
and
had
accomplished
all
that
they
ought
,
could
doe
no
lesse
but
beare
the
like
to
them
againe
.
So
from
thence
they
all
returned
vnto
the
Citie
,
but
when
they
came
vnto
the
mightie
Pallace
,
the
king
and
all
those
that
came
with
him
,
were
in
great
admiration
to
sée
and
behold
vpon
the
fore
front
of
the
same
all
the
whole
Histories
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
said
that
by
his
figure
he
resembled
verie
much
Rosicleer
,
which
was
verie
true
,
for
that
there
was
no
more
difference
betwixt
them
,
but
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
somewhat
in
his
face
more
furious
,
and
more
fatter
of
his
bodie
,
but
of
one
stature
,
&
in
all
other
proportions
of
their
bodies
were
all
one
,
and
resembled
one
another
verie
much
,
so
that
the
remembrance
of
those
valyant
and
worthie
déedes
which
were
there
so
naturallie
set
forth
,
vnto
them
that
knew
not
thereof
,
that
it
put
in
them
so
great
admiration
,
that
they
saide
with
great
reason
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
worthie
of
the
great
fame
&
praise
that
was
published
throughout
all
the
world
,
and
onelie
for
the
sight
thereof
the
knights
of
Sp●ine
thought
their
comming
into
Grecia
to
be
well
emploied
.
Being
alighted
,
they
entered
into
the
Pallace
,
whereas
they
were
meruailouslie
wel
receiued
of
the
Empresse
Bri●na
and
the
Princesse
Lindaraza
,
and
of
all
the
whole
companie
of
faire
Ladies
&
Gentlewomen
of
high
estate
that
came
forth
to
beare
her
companie
,
and
there
passed
betwixt
them
wordes
of
great
loue
&
friendship
.
With
great
ioy
,
pleasure
,
and
pastime
they
passed
awaie
all
that
daie
,
in
the
which
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
,
and
the
precious
Quéene
Arquirosa
were
made
sure
and
ioyned
hands
,
abiding
the
marriage
to
be
made
at
such
time
as
Rosicleer
should
be
married
,
and
Clauerindo
,
with
other
mo
Princes
and
knights
that
did
abide
the
same
daie
.
Then
the
next
daie
being
come
,
for
that
the
Citie
was
meruailouslie
pestered
with
the
great
number
of
people
that
were
in
it
,
and
could
not
verie
well
at
their
ease
be
lodged
,
it
was
agréed
betwéene
the
Emperour
and
the
king
Oliuerio
that
a
trench
should
be
made
without
in
the
field
nigh
vnto
the
walls
of
the
Citie
,
and
there
to
pitch
their
tents
,
whereas
should
be
all
the
whole
armie
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
the
halfe
of
all
the
Emperours
knights
.
Thus
according
vnto
their
conclusion
it
was
commanded
to
be
done
,
which
was
a
gallant
and
roiall
thing
to
behold
,
it
was
stronglie
fortefied
with
déepe
ditches
and
barres
a●
the
entrie
,
so
that
they
were
as
sure
within
that
trench
as
though
they
had
beene
within
the
Citie
.
In
this
sort
they
were
lodged
in
sight
the
one
of
the
other
,
&
betwixt
the
trenches
of
the
Pagans
&
the
Christians
there
was
a
mightie
,
great
&
broad
field
,
whereas
they
might
at
their
ease
make
their
battailes
.
At
this
time
were
the
Pagans
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
when
that
their
enimies
were
come
forth
of
the
Citie
,
and
fortefied
their
trenches
,
for
that
it
was
then
in
their
handes
to
giue
them
battaile
at
all
times
at
their
pleasures
,
&
they
cared
not
although
they
were
many
in
number
,
&
more
than
before
,
yet
for
all
that
of
their
part
they
were
fiue
for
one
.
How
it
was
consented
and
concluded
in
the
campe
of
the
Pagans
,
for
to
make
a
challenge
to
the
Greekes
,
and
how
it
was
accepted
,
and
by
what
knightes
of
the
part
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
.
Chap.
26.
NOw
the
Hystorie
saith
,
that
on
a
daie
the
Emperour
Alycandro
being
in
his
Emperiall
tent
,
accompanied
with
the
most
principallest
of
his
whole
hoast
,
in
great
counsaile
what
was
best
for
them
to
doe
,
there
were
some
amongst
them
that
did
not
let
for
to
praise
the
high
knighthood
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
of
his
knightes
,
amongst
whome
the
olde
king
Gedrosia
did
praise
them
more
than
anie
other
,
for
to
prouoke
Bramarant
to
anger
,
vnto
whome
he
alwaies
bare
ill
will
,
after
that
hée
had
slaine
his
sonne
the
young
man
Graco
.
To
the
which
ther
néeded
not
much
matter
,
for
that
straight
waies
this
stout
and
furious
Pagan
arose
vp
with
so
fierce
semblance
,
that
it
feared
all
them
that
did
beholde
him
,
and
sayd
these
wordes
.
THe
heartes
of
cowards
and
base
men
doe
feare
small
things
,
and
receiueth
great
admiration
,
the
which
doth
procéede
because
they
are
but
for
little
matters
:
all
that
doth
surmount
them
doth
seeme
vnto
them
monstrous
,
and
almost
aboue
nature
,
and
by
their
great
cowardnesse
they
doe
feare
and
dreade
more
one
enimie
that
is
in
the
fielde
prepared
for
to
fight
against
them
,
than
one
hundreth
that
are
on
their
part
,
although
euerie
one
of
them
can
doe
much
more
than
his
aduersarie
,
but
vnto
such
as
bée
generous
of
heart
and
valiant
,
high
things
do
giue
contentment
,
and
there
is
nothing
that
they
do
heare
or
sée
that
doth
make
them
to
meruaile
or
wonder
.
The
force
of
a
little
thunderbolt
that
doth
cleane
a
tower
in
the
middest
,
is
much
more
than
the
strength
of
an
Elephant
that
carrieth
a
Castle
of
timber
vpon
her
backe
,
and
that
of
the
little
fish
called
Remora
,
that
staieth
the
ships
against
the
force
of
the
windes
,
than
of
a
man
that
cleaueth
an
armed
knight
asunder
in
the
middest
.
But
you
doe
meruaile
more
at
the
one
than
at
the
other
,
for
two
causes
,
the
one
for
●●e
feare
which
you
haue
of
the
people
at
hand
of
your
enimies
,
and
the
other
,
for
that
you
iudge
by
your
owne
strength
all
the
whole
power
of
humane
nature
,
séeming
farre
to
exceede
yours
.
I
doe
not
meruaile
that
our
enimies
doe
cu●
knightes
asunder
in
the
middest
,
and
cleane
them
downe
vnto
the
breast
,
for
lykewise
●doe
the
sa●●●e
,
cleaning
them
downe
to
the
saddle
,
y●t
much
was
the
strength
of
M●lo
,
that
with
the
force
of
h●s
strong
armes
did
clea●e
asunder
harde
and
great
Okes
,
and
for
that
you
shall
perceiue
and
vnderstand
how
little
I
doe
esteeme
th●
force
of
our
enimies
,
I
will
straight
wayes
make
and
send
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
a
challenge
,
〈◊〉
shall
bée
that
foure
of
the
strongest
and
most
renow●●●
knights
that
he
hath
with
him
,
come
forth
to
morrowe
into
the
field
to
make
battaile
with
me
,
for
that
I
alone
wil
combat
with
them
all
together
,
in
the
face
of
both
those
mightie
enimies
,
and
if
he
hath
not
foure
such
knights
that
durst
take
vpon
them
to
accept
this
challenge
,
I
will
doe
the
like
with
sixe
or
with
eight
,
and
with
so
many
as
they
will
charge
me
withal
,
for
it
shal
be
all
one
with
me
,
to
be
foure
,
or
to
be
fiftie
,
for
that
I
will
t●●t
these
cowards
may
sée
,
how
little
I
doe
feare
and
estéeme
the
Gréekes
.
This
proude
Pagan
had
scarce
finished
these
wordes
,
when
that
the
gran
Campion
arose
vp
,
and
saide
that
●ee
would
send
likewise
to
challenge
other
foure
,
and
make
battaile
with
them
altogether
,
io●nthe
with
his
sonne
.
Likewise
there
were
other
of
no
lesse
valour
and
valiant
courage
than
they
,
who
for
that
they
woulde
make
manifest
their
great
and
mightie
power
,
woulde
also
enter
into
the
challenge
,
and
there
were
of
those
super-valiant
knights
,
the
strong
and
stout
Meridian
and
Brand●●ardo
,
who
had
before
either
of
them
proued
by
experience
the
force
of
the
Gréekes
,
and
knew
verie
well
the
generositie
of
their
harts
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
they
would
not
make
the
challenge
but
against
other
two
,
for
that
they
knew
it
was
but
a
follie
to
charge
themselues
with
anie
moe
,
because
the
Gréekes
should
not
haue
the
vauntage
,
&
againe
,
in
the
battaile
past
,
they
sawe
such
knightes
,
that
gaue
them
inough
to
do
to
defend
themselues
.
Then
straight
waies
arose
vp
that
valyant
Pagan
Rodaran
king
of
Arabia
,
&
after
him
the
strong
king
of
Media
,
a●d
with
them
the
king
of
Trapobana
,
who
was
a
meruailous
strong
knight
,
and
of
so
bigge
bodie
,
that
hée
séemed
to
bée
a
Gyant
,
hée
was
called
Zoroastes
,
all
the
which
said
that
they
would
enter
into
the
challenge
,
and
at
that
time
if
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
had
not
disturbed
them
,
there
were
a
great
number
that
would
haue
entered
thereinto
,
especiallie
the
kings
and
Gyants
that
were
there
present
,
who
had
a
great
desire
for
to
shew
themselues
.
Thus
this
challenge
being
concluded
amongst
them
,
it
was
consented
to
send
for
messenger
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
,
a
young
a
valiant
knight
,
who
at
the
commaundement
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
straight
waies
departed
,
being
verie
richlie
armed
,
with
a
crowne
of
golde
vpon
his
head
in
token
that
he
was
a
king
.
When
that
he
came
vnto
the
trenches
of
the
Christians
,
saying
that
hée
was
a
messenger
,
they
dyd
let
him
passe
till
hée
entered
into
the
mightie
Citie
,
and
then
was
carried
vnto
the
royall
Pallace
,
whereas
hée
alighted
from
his
horse
,
and
leauing
him
with
a
page
that
came
with
him
,
he
mounted
into
the
great
hall
,
whereas
he
found
the
Emperour
accompanied
with
all
his
Princes
,
noble
men
,
&
valiant
knights
in
great
counsaile
for
to
giue
battaile
vnto
the
Pagans
,
but
when
the
Pagan
king
entered
,
they
all
held
their
peace
,
&
tarried
to
sée
what
was
his
demand
,
who
without
doing
any
reuerence
,
said
.
THou
shalt
vnderstand
(
Emperour
Trebatio
)
that
I
am
a
messenger
of
the
diuine
and
consecrated
Emperour
Alicandro
,
Lord
of
the
mightie
Asia
,
who
doth
send
me
vnto
thée
to
giue
thée
to
vnderstand
,
that
certaine
knights
of
his
camp
being
verie
desirous
to
pro●ie
their
strengthes
with
thy
knights
,
hath
ordained
a
challenge
,
and
to
be
vsed
&
ordained
in
this
sort
,
that
the
gran
Campeon
,
Lord
of
the
Oriental
Ilands
,
&
his
sonne
Bramarant
,
doth
challenge
eight
knights
of
the
principallest
and
stoutest
that
are
to
be
found
in
all
thy
hoast
,
and
they
two
wil
maintaine
the
battaile
against
them
all
,
likewise
our
precious
and
most
renowmed
Prince
Meridian
,
and
the
stout
Brandimardo
,
and
Rodaran
king
of
Arabia
,
with
the
king
of
Media
,
and
the
mightie
Zoroastes
king
of
Traprobana
,
doe
challenge
as
many
more
of
thy
knights
as
they
be
to
come
forth
and
battaile
with
them
.
Al
these
doe
●aie
,
that
to
morrow
being
past
,
they
will
pr●sent
themselues
in
the
middest
of
this
great
field
,
with
their
●orses
and
armour
,
and
abide
the
comming
of
those
that
will
come
forth
against
them
,
and
the
Emperour
my
Lord
saith
,
for
that
all
people
with
their
ease
at
their
wils
may
behold
what
shal
passe
in
this
battaile
he
concludeth
a
truce
for
two
daies
,
in
the
which
time
all
such
of
our
campe
as
are
disposed
,
without
armour
may
fréelie
enter
into
the
Citie
,
&
those
of
thy
part
likewise
in
the
same
order
may
enter
into
our
trenches
.
This
is
the
effect
of
the
message
that
I
do
bring
,
therefore
giue
me
answere
what
thou
doest
pretend
héeren
,
&
also
these
thy
knights
to
answere
me
vnto
the
challenge
.
The
Emperour
who
verie
well
vnderstoode
the
grea●e
pride
of
the
Pagans
,
at
the
request
of
them
all
,
answered
as
followeth
.
Of
truth
(
King
)
the
power
of
these
two
Pagans
,
Bradaman
and
Bramarant
,
is
verie
great
,
but
yet
their
pride
is
much
more
as
it
séemeth
vnto
mee
,
for
that
they
are
not
content
to
challenge
other
two
knightes
,
but
will
that
they
be
eight
,
it
doth
well
appeare
,
that
although
they
haue
proued
the
force
and
strength
of
some
of
these
knights
,
yet
doe
they
not
knowe
the
valiantnesse
of
their
hearts
.
Thou
shalt
returne
vnto
the
Emperour
thy
Lord
,
and
declare
vnto
him
and
vnto
them
that
sent
thée
hether
,
that
I
haue
heard
thy
Embassage
,
and
the
answere
of
these
knightes
is
,
that
to
morrow
at
their
houre
appointed
they
shall
finde
vs
armed
in
the
field
,
no
more
but
one
to
one
,
as
is
the
vse
and
custome
amongest
vs
,
and
this
vauntage
which
they
doe
offer
vnto
vs
,
wée
doe
release
and
pardon
them
of
the
same
,
and
giue
them
thankes
,
and
in
all
things
touching
the
truce
,
let
it
bée
done
as
he
wil
command
it
,
for
I
shal
receiue
great
contentment
therein
.
With
this
answere
the
king
would
haue
departed
,
but
first
he
desired
to
know
the
names
of
those
knights
that
would
go
out
vnto
the
battaile
,
and
called
to
haue
a
sight
of
them
,
and
for
that
there
was
no
agréement
who
they
should
bée
,
many
of
the
most
valiantest
that
were
in
the
hall
arose
vp
,
and
offered
themselues
vnto
the
battaile
,
amongest
them
was
Rosicleer
,
the
strong
Oristedes
,
the
prince
Clauerindo
,
the
king
Sacridoro
,
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
,

T●ebatio

worthy
knight
Flamides
,
the
two
v●liant
knights
of
Spaine
,
Don
Claros
,
&
Arcalus
,
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
,
and
the
Princes
Bargandel
,
Liriamandro
,
〈◊〉
Rodamarte
,
euerie
one
of
these
requested
the
Emperou●
to
〈…〉
th●m
vnto
the
battaile
,
who
séeing
that
they
were
so
many
and
so
worthie
,
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
it
should
be
a
great
de●asing
of
their
honours
to
choose
some
&
leaue
other
some
,
which
caused
him
to
ordaine
the
matter
in
such
sorte
,
that
none
should
remaine
discontent
.
Wherevpon
he
sayd
vnto
the
Pagan
king
,
that
forsomuch
as
there
were
so
manie
stout
and
valiant
knightes
in
their
armies
,
that
they
should
let
the
battaile
of
challenge
&
●efiance
be
,
fiftéene
to
fiftéene
,
then
shall
it
be
better
and
the
more
to
bée
looked
on
.
Then
the
Pagan
king
said
that
he
w●uld
returne
with
that
message
vnto
the
Emperor
his
Lord
,
and
before
night
he
would
bring
him
answere
thereof
,
&
taking
in
writing
the
names
of
the
fiftéene
knightes
,
he
departed
out
of
the
Citie
,
and
returned
vnto
his
campe
,
and
finding
the
Emperour
in
his
tent
,
accompanied
with
his
nobles
,
in
the
presence
of
them
all
did
declare
the
answere
that
he
brought
,
the
which
was
straight
waies
accepted
of
them
all
,
sauing
of
Bramarant
,
who
knowing
that
there
should
come
forth
against
him
but
one
alone
knight
,
he
refused
to
be
in
that
battaile
,
and
sayde
:
Let
not
the
Gods
permit
that
I
go
forth
vnto
the
challenge
against
one
alone
knight
into
the
field
,
for
that
the
victorie
that
should
growe
thereby
,
should
be
more
vnto
his
shame
than
to
his
honour
▪
But
when
that
excellent
,
v●liant
,
and
couragious
knight
Meridian
heard
him
saie
so
,
he
could
not
〈◊〉
himselfe
but
to
saie
Of
truth
Bramarant
,
others
as
good
as
thou
art
,
hath
gone
forth
and
doe
goe
forth
vnto
the
battaile
one
for
one
,
and
it
doth
well
appeare
,
that
thou
hast
not
experimented
the
force
and
strength
of
the
Gréekes
,
for
if
〈◊〉
did●est
knowe
them
so
well
as
●
,
thy
greate
pride
would
〈◊〉
be
so
great
〈…〉
to
the
which
likewise
(
sayd
the
stout
〈…〉
)
there
is
one
that
I
know
and
preued
my selfe
with
him
;
〈◊〉
thou
didest
enter
with
him
into
battaile
,
before
two
horses
were
finished
hee
woulde
make
thee
to
sweate
droppes
of
bloud
,
and
to
loose
the
most
part
of
thy
br●uerie
.
At
whose
wordes
this
br●ue
,
Pagan
receiued
so
greate
ire
and
wrath
,
that
〈◊〉
of
fire
seemed
to
flie
out
at
his
eyes
,
and
many
times
he
was
moued
to
buckle
with
them
,
but
considering
the
presence
of
the
Emperour
,
(
with
whom
he
had
great
friendship
)
and
againe
for
that
he
was
vnarmed
,
fearing
the
great
number
that
would
ouercharge
him
,
he
refrained
himselfe
,
and
kept
his
furious
wrath
,
in
his
heart
,
for
to
reuenge
the
same
,
when
that
time
would
serue
.
And
although
that
many
that
were
there
had
great
dread
to
sée
Bramarant
so
furious
and
angrie
,
for
his
eyes
lightened
like
burning
torches
,
yet
the
two
valiant
and
worthie
knights
,
Meridian
,
and
Brandimardo
,
made
no
rekoning
thereof
,
for
that
either
of
them
were
of
as
valiant
a
courage
as
he
,
and
as
stoute
.
Then
straight
waies
ther
arose
vp
many
other
knights
that
would
be
in
the
battaile
,
fiftene
to
fiftene
:
amongst
all
,
at
the
request
of
the
Emperour
,
(
although
his
will
was
to
the
contrarie
)
was
the
gran
Campion
,
and
the
two
worthie
princes
Meridian
and
Branbima●do
,
and
the
stout
Rodaran
,
the
king
of
Media
,
Zoroastes
king
of
Taprobana
,
the
prince
of
Cambray
,
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
,
that
was
the
messenger
,
and
the
prince
of
Aegipt
,
all
these
were
verie
stout
&
valiant
knights
,
and
for
to
make
vp
the
number
of
fiftene
,
the
Emperour
commaunded
that
sixe
of
the
most
strongest
giants
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
the
whole
armie
,
should
goe
with
them
,
they
were
all
bretheren
and
Lords
of
the
Ilandes
Diamantinas
,
and
are
so
called
because
there
are
found
in
them
more
Diamonds
then
in
any
other
part
of
all
the
whole
worlde
:
they
were
all
sonnes
vnto
the
gran
Thition
,
the
most
famous
giant
that
was
in
all
Asia
,
and
for
the
great
friendship
that
their
father
hadde
with
the
Emperour
,
they
came
for
to
serue
him
in
those
warres
,
with
a
great
number
of
their
owne
knights
.
When
that
it
was
fully
ordained
and
concluded
who
should
goe
forth
in
this
challenge
:
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
straight
waies
departed
,
and
went
to
carie
the
aunswere
vnto
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
whereas
the
Historie
doth
leaue
them
till
time
serueth
for
to
tell
you
of

faire
Empresse
Claridiana

How
the

Claridiana
came

happened
there
.
Chap.
27.
WIth
great
desire
to
come
vnto
the
Caue
of
Artidon
,
trauiled
the
royall
Empresse
Claridiana
,
through
the
mightie
kingdome
of
Russia
,
in
the
companie
of
Elizea
,
and
her
knight
,
thinking
the
time
verie
long
till
she
came
thether
,
for
to
know
the
trueth
of
that
which
had
brought
her
into
so
great
care
and
heauinesse
:
the
Ca●e
was
greatly
mencioned
in
all
those
parts
,
and
by
reason
of
the
great
hast
that
they
made
,
within
few
daies
after
that
they
had
entred
into
the
kingdome
of
Russia
,
they
attained
to
the
caue
,
but
when
they
came
vnto
the
entrie
thereof
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
to
sée
the
wonderfull
fire
that
came
foorth
thereat
,
which
séemed
to
be
some
infernall
thing
.
But
when
they
had
read
those
letters
and
vnderstoode
the
propertie
of
the
fire
,
they
straight
waies
entred
in
thereat
,
but
gaue
the
preheminence
of
the
first
entrie
vnto
the
royall
Empresse
,
so
after
that
they
had
passed
the
narrow
lane
,
they
came
into
a
faire
great
court
,
whereas
they
were
strangely
amazed
,
as
wel
at
the
greatnesse
the
which
séemed
to
be
in
that
great
work
,
as
also
at
the
mightie
force
which
the
bull
séemed
to
show
,
being
fastned
vnto
the
piller
,
(
who
in
that
order
as
they
saw
him
)
began
to
giue
such
terrible
and
wonderfull
brayings
,
that
all
that
mightie
worke
séemed
to
shake
thereat
.
And
if
it
had
not
bene
for
the
Princes
,
who
dyd
animate
and
comfort
them
,
Elizea
,
and
her
knight
had
retourned
backe
againe
,
with
the
great
feare
the
which
they
receiued
,
after
a
while
that
they
had
beholden
the
great
fiercenesse
of
the
Bull
,
sodainly
〈◊〉
their
eyes
aside
vpon
an
other
wal
almost
right
against
the
same
,
the
which
was
vnder
the
gallerie
of
the
pallace
,
they
saw
grauen
in
the
same
,
verie
naturallie
,
the
whole
historie
of
the
mightie
and
perillous
battailes
there
,
done
by
Rosicleer
,
and
of
all
that
had
happened
vnto
him
in
that
Caue
,
the
which
being
well
vnderstoode
by
the
ro●all
Princes
,
and
greatly
wondered
at
those
worthie
actes
,
not
without
shedding
of
a
few
teares
which
trickled
downe
her
rubicall
chéekes
,
sayde
.
Oh
high
and
happie
Emperour
●rebatio
,
in
how
much
art
thou
bound
vnto
God
,
that
out
of
thy
noble
loynes
,
hath
come
foorth
those
,
that
hath
●●lled
all
the
whole
worlde
with
the
fame
of
their
wonderfull
and
immortall
déedes
:
Oh
that
my
destinie
would
permit
,
and
my
fortune
be
so
fauourable
,
that
our
blouds
might
ioyne
together
,
that
some
part
of
those
worthie
deeds
of
thy
posteritie
,
might
be
allotted
in
mée
.
Therefore
come
that
come
will
,
for
that
I
cannot
perswade
with
my selfe
,
that
from
the
descent
of
so
cléere
and
worthie
a
stock
,
may
be
comprehended
so
blind
a
iudgement
,
but
that
they
doe
vnderstand
the
great
valour
of
my
desert
.
And
in
saying
these
words
she
went
forwardes
,
and
Elizea
,
and
her
knight
followed
her
,
and
went
all
to gether
vp
the
staires
into
the
gall●●●es
,
whereas
a
new
they
began
to
meruale
at
the
strangenesse
of
that
worke
,
as
also
at
the
delightfull
gardaines
and
orchards
which
they
sawe
out
at
certaine
windowes
:
after
a
while
that
they
had
well
perused
the
same
,
they
proceded
forwards
,
&
with
the
great
desire
which
the
P●inces
Claridiana
,
had
to
sée
her selfe
with
the
wise
man
,
she
neuer
rested
till
she
came
vnto
the
dores
of
shining
〈◊〉
that
were
shutte
,
which
was
the
entrie
into
the
inchaunted
hall
,
but
so
soone
as
she
had
layd
hand
on
them
for
to
open
them
,
they
straight
waies
opened
of
themselues
with
so
great
a
noyse
,
that
all
mightie
woorke
séemed
as
though
it
woulde
haue
sonke
,
when
the
royall
Princes
entred
in
thereat
,
whereas
she
saw
the
high
and
rich
throne
,
and
thereon
the
wise
Artidon
,
with
his
breast
all
open
,
shewing
forth
his
heart
which
was
a
verie
pitifull
and
lamentable
thing
to
behold
,
at
which
time
there
chaunced
a
great
meruaile
,
●●e
which
was
neuer
séene
beefore
,
but
at
suche
time
as
Rosicleer
,
entred
into
that
inchaunted
quadran
,
(
and
it
was
)
that
when
the
royall
Princes
béeganne
to
enter
in
at
the
hall
doores
,
there
began
so
swéete
and
peaceable
Musicke
,
that
it
rauished
all
the
hearers
of
their
sences
,
and
they
semed
as
though
they
had
bene
transported
into
an
other
world
,
and
Elizea
and
her
knights
(
who
were
without
)
at
the
swéete
melodie
thereof
,
were
likewise
rauished
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
some
celestiall
noyse
,
they
would
not
presume
to
enter
into
that
inchaunted
hall
,
till
such
time
as
the
princes
came
forth
,
for
that
they
might
haue
space
for
to
aske
and
know
that
which
was
their
desire
.
After
that
the
princes
had
a
while
beholden
the
great
wonders
and
straunge
things
of
that
inchaunted
quadran
,
she
straight
waies
conceiued
,
that
the
swéete
Musicke
was
made
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
from
that
time
,
she
had
a
better
hope
then
she
had
before
,
of
a
good
resolution
of
that
she
so
long
desired
,
for
wheras
with
such
Musicke
she
was
receiued
,
she
hoped
her
answere
at
her
departing
forth
,
could
not
be
but
verie
good
;
So
with
the
great
desire
she
hadde
to
talke
with
the
wise
Artidon
,
after
a
little
while
that
she
had
there
staied
,
she
mounted
vp
the
siluer
staires
that
carryed
her
vnto
the
throne
whereas
shaking
with
all
parts
of
her
bodie
,
for
the
sorowfull
or
heauie
newes
which
she
looked
to
receiue
,
she
plast
her selfe
before
the
wise
man
:
who
being
in
obedience
of
her
soueraigne
maiestie
,
did
somewhat
decline
his
head
,
whereat
the
princes
receiued
great
admiration
,
then
she
humbling
her selfe
vnto
him
,
saide
these
words
following
.
MOst
mightie
and
famous
Artidon
,
the
high
fame
of
thy
great
&
wonderfull
meruailes
,
hath
brought
mée
into
these
strange
countries
,
so
farre
of
from
mine
:
and
if
it
doe
so
fall
out
that
I
carrie
from
hence
no
more
then
I
haue
brought
,
yet
shall
I
think
my
trauaile
well
bestowed
,
and
my selfe
verie
well
rewarded
,
in
that
I
haue
séene
and
vnderstood
thy
great
wisedome
,
for
as
Plato
the
Philosopher
saith
,
for
to
sée
and
know
a
wise
man
,
a
man
ought
for
to
trauaile
throughout
all
the
whole
world
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
many
times
,
he
passed
from
Athens
vnto
Sicilia
,
for
to
sée
his
friend
the
wise
and
prudent
Focion
.
Apolonio
Thianeo
,
departed
from
Rome
,
and
trauailed
through
all
Asia
,
sayled
through
the
Riuer
Nilus
,
sustained
the
cold
of
the
mount
Caucasus
,
suffered
the
great
heat
of
the
mountaine
Rifeos
,
and
crossed
ouer
the
whole
countries
of
the
Masagetas
,
till
such
time
as
he
entred
into
the
great
India
,
and
all
this
trauaile
and
pilgrimage
was
for
to
see
and
communicate
,
with
the
famous
wise
〈◊〉
.
How
much
more
would
those
haue
passed
greater
trauailes
,
for
to
haue
séene
those
his
meruailous
workes
,
if
that
in
their
daies
and
times
they
science
and
great
wisedome
had
bene
manifest
.
I
cannot
say
that
this
is
the
onely
cause
of
my
comming
for
to
see
thée
,
as
it
is
manifest
vnto
thee
,
yet
I
doe
say
,
that
if
there
were
no
other
occasion
,
this
should
bee
sufficient
for
to
come
and
see
thée
.
The
great
care
which
hath
ben
the
occasion
of
my
comming
hether
,
(
although
I
doe
beléeue
that
thou
doest
know
it
)
yet
will
I
declare
it
vnto
thée
,
for
that
he
that
loued
so
faithfully
and
firmely
in
his
time
,
will
not
meruaile
at
any
force
whatsoeuer
it
be
that
loue
doth
vpon
humaine
hearts
.
I
loue
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
aboue
all
other
things
in
this
world
,
so
that
if
my
fortune
and
euill
destenie
doe
permit
that
he
take
an
other
to
be
his
wife
,
I
desire
to
know
the
trueth
thereof
,
for
that
I
may
remember
my selfe
,
&
take
order
what
is
best
to
be
done
.
It
hath
bene
told
mée
that
he
is
made
sure
vnto
the
princesse
Lindabrides
,
and
that
he
loued
her
with
all
his
heart
,
therefore
(
for
that
there
is
nothing
hid
from
thée
)
I
doe
desire
thée
for
to
tell
mée
if
it
be
true
,
and
put
me
out
of
all
doubt
,
for
whatsoeuer
that
thou
shalt
tell
mée
,
I
shall
beléeue
it
to
be
true
,
and
conformable
therevnto
I
wil
take
order
with
my selfe
what
is
best
to
be
done
.
This
being
saide
,
the
royall
princes
held
her
peace
,
abyding
the
answere
which
should
be
pronounced
by
the
wise
man
,
who
as
then
opened
his
eyes
which
before
were
shut
,
and
saide
as
followeth

trueth
,
soueraigne
Lady
and
Empresse
,
for
that
your
highnesse
doth
verie
well
employ
,
the
great
trau●ile
the
which
you
haue
passed
in
this
your
long
iourney
,
onely
for
the
sight
of
those
my
workes
:
much
more
may
I
thinke
these
my
trauailes
better
imployed
,
the
which
I
had
in
making
of
them
.
I
being
now
gratified
with
so
high
a
reward
,
in
that
you
are
come
for
to
sée
them
.
And
I
doe
not
meruaile
,
that
loue
hath
had
so
great
power
for
to
ouercome
your
highnesse
,
for
that
alwaies
against
the
most
highest
&
most
worthiest
of
courage
,
there
doth
he
vse
the
greatest
force
,
but
in
especiall
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
his
fortune
and
destinie
doth
promise
him
vnto
you
,
as
vnto
her
that
in
all
the
whole
world
doth
best
deserue
him
,
and
for
you
alone
is
he
kept
and
defended
.
And
touching
the
trueth
of
this
which
you
haue
demaunded
of
mée
,
I
tell
you
,
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
neuer
made
sure
vnto
the
princesse
Lindabrides
,
neither
hath
he
hadde
any
more
to
doe
with
her
then
he
hath
had
with
you
,
although
the
great
and
mightie
Emperour
Alicandro
her
father
dyd
giue
her
to
him
for
wife
,
and
left
vnto
him
his
high
&
mightie
Empire
of
Tartaria
,
with
an
infinite
number
of
other
kingedomes
,
with
the
which
he
should
be
made
the
mightiest
prince
and
lord
in
all
the
whole
world
.
And
for
that
he
would
not
receiue
her
and
all
the
rest
,
cleane
contrarie
vnto
his
will
,
secretly
in
the
night
he
departed
and
left
the
gran
Cataia
,
almost
distract
of
their
wits
,
with
great
desire
for
to
enioye
the
sight
of
your
soueraigntie
,
the
which
time
he
thought
long
,
and
after
he
came
to
Constantinople
,
and
had
that
rigorous
battaile
with
you
,
the
which
contencion
was
so
cruell
vnto
him
,
after
that
he
knew
you
,
that
desperate
and
wearie
of
his
life
,
he
would
goe
seeke
his
death
,
to
cléere
himselfe
out
of
this
worlde
.
So
he
departed
out
of
Constantinople
,
and
went
into
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
whereas
he
had
battaile
with
one
of
the
most
valiantest
and
stoutest
Pagans
that
was
in
all
the
Paganisme
,
and
yet
in
all
that
rigorous
battaile
,
he
would
neuer
strike
him
with
his
sworde
,
for
that
he
hadde
smitten
you
with
the
same
.
And
from
thence
he
departed
and
went
to
sea
,
whereas
by
a
rough
&
great
tempest
,
he
was
driuen
vnto
the
Iland
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
where
(
as
one
desirous
to
dye
and
receiue
the
death
)
he
went
a
shore
,
and
had
a
meruailous
battaile
with
two
legious
of
infernall
diuels
,
and
afterward
with
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
wherein
happened
verie
strange
things
,
as
is
apparant
if
you
please
to
goe
thether
to
sée
,
where
you
shall
finde
him
all
alone
,
without
anie
other
companie
,
more
then
his
horse
,
neither
is
there
in
all
the
Iland
any
other
beast
or
foule
.
There
doth
he
leade
and
passe
the
most
sharpest
and
asperest
life
that
euer
was
holden
by
man
,
with
desire
there
to
ende
his
dayes
,
and
neuer
more
to
retourne
and
weare
armour
.
All
this
he
doth
for
your
occasion
,
and
you
are
in
a
great
fault
before
God
,
if
you
doe
not
finde
remedie
in
the
recouering
of
him
againe
,
for
that
by
your
occasion
there
doth
languish
and
dye
,
the
best
and
worthiest
knight
in
all
the
whole
world
,
and
one
that
doth
loue
you
better
then
any
thing
therein
:
therefore
it
doth
accomplish
your
highnesse
out
of
hand
to
goe
and
sée
him
,
for
it
is
so
that
if
your
succour
doe
stay
long
,
it
may
so
fall
out
that
after
he
shall
haue
no
néede
thereof
,
for
that
at
this
present
his
life
is
in
great
perill
.
In
concluding
of
these
words
,
the
wise
Artidon
closed
his
eyes
againe
,
&
did
put
himselfe
as
he
was
before
,
without
aunswering
or
speaking
any
word
,
leauing
the
royall
princes
one
way
with
so
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
that
she
almost
knew
not
her selfe
,
her
comfort
was
so
great
,
and
an
other
way
with
great
sorow
,
repenting
her selfe
of
that
which
she
hadde
done
against
the
most
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
blamed
her selfe
verie
much
,
in
that
she
sawe
not
any
further
proofe
of
his
disloyaltie
,
and
giuing
him
so
malicious
and
euill
reward
,
for
the
great
good
loue
and
often
perills
which
he
aduentured
for
her
sake
,
and
dyd
thinke
the
tyme
very
long
,
till
she
departed
for
to
haue
remedie
for
his
euill
.
Moreouer
,
she
toke
her
leaue
of
the
wise
man
,
&
he
made
the
like
in
declining
his
〈◊〉
at
her
departure
,
this
soueraigne
Princes
was
not
so
sone
departed
out
of
the
inchanted
quadran
,
but
the
swéete
Musicke
ceased
,
and
straight
waies
,
Elizea
and
her
knight
entred
in
,
and
when
they
were
mounted
whereas
the
wise
man
was
,
there
they
knew
all
that
they
desired
.
The
knight
was
her
true
and
faithfull
louer
,
so
that
Elizea
departed
from
thence
with
great
contentment
and
satisfied
of
his
loyaltie
,
they
were
not
so
soone
departed
out
of
the
inchaunted
hall
,
but
the
steele
dores
were
shut
with
a
great
noyse
.
So
the
princes
and
the
rest
went
into
the
galaries
and
desended
into
the
great
court
,
but
staied
not
there
long
,
the
ioye
and
contentment
of
the
princesse
was
such
:
but
being
forth
of
that
wonderfull
and
miraculous
caue
,
they
toke
their
iourney
towards
the
port
whereas
they
came
a
shore
.
And
at
their
comming
thether
,
the
princes
would
haue
informed
her selfe
where
the
ylande
of
the
diuelish
Eauno
was
,
she
found
many
that
did
giue
her
to
vnderstande
of
the
wonderfull
things
of
that
Iland
,
by
reason
of
the
great
fame
that
was
spread
abroade
thereof
,
but
not
one
that
knew
expressely
where
abouts
it
●●oode
,
whereby
she
might
take
her
direct
course
thether
,
which
caused
a
great
desire
in
her
heart
to
commit
her selfe
vnto
fortune
,
for
execution
of
the
which
,
she
tooke
her
leaue
of
Elizea
,
and
her
knight
,
accompanieng
her selfe
with
alonelie
two
damsels
,
with
whome
she
ment
to
enter
into
the
ship
,
with
determination
not
to
come
any
more
a
shore
,
till
such
time
as
she
had
found
the
place
whereas
her
knight
was
,
and
giueing
Elizea
to
vnderstand
hereof
,
she
was
very
sad
and
sorowfull
so
for
to
lose
her
companie
,
for
that
they
accounted
themselues
happie
and
fortunate
to
be
in
her
companie
:
but
when
they
vnderstoode
that
it
was
her
will
and
desire
,
with
many
teares
shed
,
of
her
and
her
knight
,
they
toke
their
leaue
of
her
,
alwaies
hauing
in
minde
in
how
much
they
were
bound
vnto
her
,
for
that
she
deliuered
them
out
of
prison
from
that
mightie
and
famous
Rouer
Cleonidas
.
The
princes
being
departed
from
them
,
she
commended
her selfe
vnto
fortune
,
&
began
to
make
saile
,
hauing
no
certaine
way
whether
to
goe
,
but
wheras
the
winde
would
driue
the
ship
,
hauing
their
sailes
all
abroade
,
for
that
they
would
that
they
might
nauigate
with
the
more
force
,
all
the
which
she
thought
to
be
verie
little
,
her
desire
was
so
great
for
to
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
for
her
sake
,
had
put
himselfe
in
so
straight
a
life
.
Being
in
the
cabbin
of
the
shippe
all
alone
,
she
fell
downe
on
her
knées
,
listing
vp
her
eies
and
heart
vnto
heauen
,
shedding
great
abundance
of
teares
that
ran
downe
her
christalline
chéekes
,
she
sayde
as
followeth
.
OH
,
Creator
of
all
things
,
both
celestiall
and
terrestrial
,
by
whose
will
and
power
the
heauens
doth
moue
,
the
starres
doth
giue
their
light
,
the
Sunne
the
and
the
Moone
doth
giue
light
vpon
the
earth
,
and
the
earth
doth
sustane
all
beastes
,
the
waues
of
the
déepe
and
pro●ound
seas
doth
swel
and
abate
againe
,
the
wyndes
doth
rage
and
become
calme
,
and
all
things
are
obedient
vnto
thee
:
here
I
doe
desire
and
craue
of
thy
diuine
maiestie
and
great
clemencie
,
that
the
force
of
this
inuisible
windes
,
(
being
gouerned
by
thy
will
)
to
direct
the
full
course
of
this
my
shippe
,
through
these
déepe
seas
,
in
such
sort
,
that
in
a
short
time
I
may
ariue
at
Iland
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
wheras
I
may
make
satisfaction
and
recompence
of
that
great
euill
and
wrong
the
which
I
haue
committed
against
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Permi●
(
O
Lord
)
that
I
may
receiue
the
reward
of
this
my
great
offence
,
and
not
he
that
is
without
fault
.
Oh
good
knight
,
if
that
I
had
had
the
eyes
of
my
vnderstanding
open
,
no
occasion
nor
newes
had
bene
sufficient
for
to
haue
perswaded
mée
,
that
in
a
knight
of
so
perfect
excelencie
(
more
then
in
any
other
man
)
should
remaine
so
great
treason
:
how
is
it
possible
that
in
so
noble
and
worthie
a
person
,
should
be
broken
,
the
faith
&
promise
which
he
made
vnto
mee
▪
of
trueth
no
,
for
his
amorous
words
,
and
profound
sighes
the
which
he
vttered
vnto
mee
,
he
neuer
pretended
to
make
so
euill
a
conclusion
of
.
Oh
vnfortunate
that
I
am
,
how
was
I
deceiued
,
and
how
lightly
was
I
moued
to
doe
that
which
I
dyd
,
what
reason
or
cause
was
there
,
to
constraine
mee
to
lay
hands
vpon
my
knight
,
and
to
employ
all
my
force
vppon
him
,
striking
him
with
my
sword
,
to
procure
his
death
.
Oh
wonderfull
case
and
horrible
,
how
am
I
worthie
of
great
punishment
,
the
windes
&
waters
of
this
déepe
seas
with
iust
reason
〈◊〉
●well
and
rise
against
mée
.
Oh
,
vnto
this
day
,
how
much
●ell
haue
I
conceiued
against
my
loyall
friend
,
and
how
euell
and
vniustly
haue
I
condemned
him
in
his
absence
:
surely
those
were
smal
things
that
so
lightly
I
should
giue
credit
vnto
,
neither
was
it
in
that
happie
knight
to
doe
them
,
for
if
that
I
had
considered
of
the
great
exelencie
,
and
of
the
high
and
fortunate
destinie
of
my
loyall
friend
,
then
had
it
ben
apparant
to
haue
bene
beléeued
,
and
no
lacke
of
vnderstanding
,
but
that
I
alone
was
she
that
deserued
to
be
his
spouse
,
and
alone
the
whole
conclusion
of
his
triumphant
ioye
.
And
if
that
I
had
well
considered
of
all
those
things
,
what
great
trauailes
,
sighes
,
sobbes
and
teares
,
heates
and
coldes
,
had
I
euitated
and
cut
of
.
But
alas
what
shall
I
saye
,
for
that
true
louers
in
fewe
things
doe
chaunce
of
the
right
,
but
in
a
great
number
doth
erre
,
sodaine
chaunces
&
iealous
thoughts
may
be
compared
vnto
the
water
of
this
sea
,
being
tossed
with
the
surging
waues
and
blustering
windes
.
Louers
doeth
beléeue
all
things
,
for
that
loue
is
full
of
bread
,
and
that
which
is
contrarie
vnto
his
desire
,
he
doth
lightlie
beléeue
,
and
vnto
that
which
giueth
ioye
and
pleasure
he
giueth
slender
credit
,
and
this
happeneth
most
in
women
,
for
that
they
are
more
light
and
moueable
in
their
actions
,
which
causeth
vs
to
giue
sooner
credit
vnto
variable
and
contrarie
things
.
Ah
good
knight
,
although
that
there
ought
to
be
in
mée
great
shame
to
come
into
thy
presence
,
yet
the
great
and
perfect
loue
which
I
doe
beare
vnto
thée
,
ought
to
be
estemed
in
more
,
my
desire
is
to
be
in
thy
presence
,
whereas
thy
sight
shal
be
as
ioyfull
vnto
mée
,
and
lightsome
to
my
vnderstanding
,
as
the
Sunne
is
vnto
all
mortall
creatures
,
whose
light
doth
beautifie
the
Moone
and
the
starres
,
and
all
the
compasse
of
the
Firmament
,
as
also
the
whole
face
of
the
Earth
.
Alas
,
when
shall
I
sée
the
houre
,
that
all
the
teares
and
anguishes
by
mée
passed
,
and
caused
by
your
absence
,
I
may
make
manifest
vnto
you
,
and
that
your
troubles
told
vnto
mée
,
I
may
excuse
being
heard
:
but
alas
,
what
doth
it
profit
mée
all
this
desire
,
for
that
mée
thinketh
that
I
shall
not
liue
for
to
enioy
so
soueraigne
ioye
and
pleasure
.
Let
that
day
come
quickly
,
&
make
no
longer
tarying
,
for
the
death
which
vnto
this
daye
hath
bene
so
desirous
of
mée
,
I
〈◊〉
not
now
alonely
hate
,
but
the
naming
thereof
doth
make
mee
agast
.
These
and
many
other
things
sayd
the
royall
Princes
,
and
she
had
not
fullie
concluded
these
her
words
,
when
that
she
felt
the
windes
to
begin
to
rage
,
and
the
waters
to
arise
,
striking
against
the
shippe
sides
,
as
though
they
would
breake
it
in
peeces
,
and
the
Mariners
began
to
crie
out
,
publishing
euell
fortune
,
and
fearing
to
be
drowned
,
for
that
in
a
verie
short
spare
,
the
Ayer
which
was
verie
faire
and
cléere
,
was
tourned
to
be
verie
darke
and
cloudie
,
and
from
the
Heauens
procéeded
foorth
so
great
aboundance
of
thunder
and
lightnings
,
as
though
the
heauens
and
seas
would
ioyne
together
,
and
the
Mariners
sayde
,
that
they
neuer
saw
at
the
Sea
in
all
their
life
time
,
so
great
a
storme
and
tempest
.
But
this
worthie
Princes
who
was
at
that
time
vppon
her
knées
,
●earing
nothing
of
the
tempest
,
sayde
as
followeth
.
LORD
if
it
be
thy
blessed
will
that
I
shall
sée
againe
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
I
doe
verely
beleue
,
that
this
tempest
commeth
by
thy
prouidence
and
apointment
,
for
that
this
my
Shippe
being
forced
by
the
furie
of
these
baysterous
windes
,
I
may
the
soner
come
vnto
the
place
whereas
he
is
.
And
if
it
be
so
Lord
,
(
as
vnworthie
)
thou
hast
not
heard
my
prayer
and
petition
,
but
that
all
things
doth
worke
according
vnto
their
nature
:
yet
héere
I
doe
desire
thy
diuine
maiestie
,
for
that
it
is
in
thy
power
,
to
stay
the
celestial
powers
,
in
such
sort
,
that
they
may
not
disturbe
mée
in
this
my
iourneie
,
nor
bée
contrarie
vnto
mée
.
And
I
am
fully
perswaded
Lord
,
that
if
it
were
thy
will
that
I
should
die
before
that
I
doe
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
it
were
not
néedefull
the
force
of
the
Elements
,
nor
the
noyse
of
so
great
thundering
and
lightening
for
to
kill
mée
,
for
alonely
thy
will
is
sufficient
for
to
sinke
this
my
ship
downe
to
the
center
of
the
sea
.
And
againe
,
if
it
be
thy
wil
that
I
shal
be
saued
,
then
wherefore
should
I
feare
fortunes
tempestes
,
or
the
force
of
the
great
and
furious
waues
?
the
good
Prophet
was
in
greater
peril
,
when
that
he
was
swalowed
vp
by
the
mightie
whale
,
and
the
mightie
Apostle
in
the
deapth
of
the
sea
,
and
for
that
it
was
thy
will
for
to
deliuer
them
,
those
perills
did
little
trouble
them
.
The
wrath
and
yre
of
Esau
did
little
profit
against
Iacob
,
nor
that
of
the
Chaldes
against
Abraham
,
nor
that
of
Pharao
against
thy
people
,
nor
that
of
Holophernus
against
Iudith
,
nor
that
of
the
Lyons
against
Daniel
,
and
little
can
this
tempest
hurt
mée
,
if
it
be
thy
will
for
to
saue
and
deliuer
mée
as
thou
diddest
deliuer
them
.
So
in
saying
these
words
,
the
royall
Princes
it
séemed
vnto
her
that
the
storme
encreased
more
and
more
,
and
so
dyd
all
that
day
&
the
night
following
,
without
any
hope
of
calmenesse
:
The
next
day
in
the
morning
,
whether
it
was
by
the
will
of
God
,
for
that
his
pleasure
was
that
the
troubles
&
sorowes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
should
haue
ende
,
or
whether
it
was
by
arte
of
the
wise
Lirgandeo
,
I
know
not
,
but
the
shippe
with
that
torment
was
ariued
at
the
solitarie
Iland
,
whereas
happened
vnto
the
royall
Princes
,
as
shal
be
tolde
you
in
the
next
Chapter
following
.
¶
How
that
the
Princes
Claridiana
,
went
a
lande
at
the
Iland
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
&
what
she
dyd
there
.
Chap.
28.
WHen
that
the
ship
of
the
princes
Claridiana
was
ariued
at
the
solitarie
Iland
,
she
,
her
damsels
and
the
Mariners
were
verie
glad
,
and
gaue
great
thanks
vnto
God
for
that
he
had
deliuered
them
out
of
that
great
storme
and
tempest
:
and
being
somewhat
wearie
of
the
sea
,
the
Princesse
determined
to
go
a
shore
,
as
well
for
to
sée
the
fertilenesse
of
the
Ilande
,
as
also
for
that
her
heart
did
giue
her
that
by
the
hande
and
will
of
God
,
all
those
things
were
ordained
.
Then
straight
waies
she
disembarked
her selfe
,
and
commaunded
her
damsells
to
tarrie
in
the
shippe
til●
she
returned
backe
againe
,
so
that
all
alone
with
her
horse
and
armour
,
she
went
a
shore
.
And
being
a
land
she
was
greatly
amazed
,
to
sée
the
countrie
so
plaine
and
no
habitation
therein
,
she
found
it
voyde
of
all
people
,
and
the
foundation
of
certaine
houses
,
which
in
times
past
had
bene
there
builded
,
but
now
ouerthrowen
and
fallen
downe
with
the
wether
.
She
saw
that
the
Iland
was
very
fresh
&
gréene
,
and
full
of
trées
,
but
not
a
beast
nor
bird
she
could
sée
in
all
the
Iland
,
but
as
an
vnpeopled
and
desert
place
,
and
being
very
much
amazed
at
all
this
,
she
could
not
iudge
otherwise
but
that
should
be
the
Iland
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
coniecturing
of
all
things
,
as
hath
bene
tolde
her
before
,
of
that
Iland
&
it
dyd
plainely
appeare
,
that
it
was
in
all
thinges
conformable
vnto
that
which
she
hadde
heard
declared
by
the
mouth
of
others
.
And
being
in
this
troubled
thought
,
she
saw
vppon
the
sea
side
somewhat
aparted
from
the
place
whereas
she
was
,
a
boate
broken
all
to
péeces
,
(
the
which
was
the
boate
that
brought
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
thether
,
and
he
brake
it
all
to
péeces
,
because
he
would
haue
nothing
to
carie
him
from
thence
)
but
when
she
came
nigh
vnto
it
,
she
saw
the
prints
of
the
blowes
,
which
gaue
her
plainly
to
vnderstand
,
how
it
should
be
broken
with
the
oares
,
the
which
laye
by
sheuered
all
to
péeces
,
she
being
greatly
amazed
thereat
,
passed
further
into
the
Iland
,
wheras
she
discouered
the
saddle
and
brydle
,
with
all
the
trappings
of
the
good
horse
Cornerino
,
scattered
vppon
the
ground
,
which
although
it
was
euill
intreated
with
the
wether
,
raine
,
and
dust
,
yet
might
shée
well
perceiue
that
they
were
of
estimation
,
and
verie
rich
,
for
that
they
were
all
wrought
with
silke
and
golde
,
and
the
pomell
and
arson
of
the
Saddle
gold
,
was
of
purefi●e
set
full
of
pr●cious
stones
,
which
caused
her
straight
waies
to
suspect
,
that
it
should
be
the
saddle
and
trapping
of
Cornerino
,
for
that
many
times
she
had
séene
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
with
them
,
and
he
wa●
them
of
the
Prince
Meridian
.
When
that
she
saw
this
,
with
a
〈…〉
from
her
horse
,
and
the
better
to
satisfie
her selfe
,
she
tooke
the
trappings
in
her
hands
,
and
wipte
of
the
dust
that
was
on
them
,
then
did
she
perfectly
know
them
to
be
the
knights
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
in
all
her
life
she
neuer
saw
the
like
,
neither
was
there
any
prince
in
all
the
whole
world
that
had
the
like
:
the
sight
whereof
,
dyd
so
trouble
and
amaze
her
,
that
she
was
in
〈◊〉
dumpe
with
great
meruaile
,
&
knew
not
what
to
saye
,
neither
whether
she
should
reioyce
,
or
be
sorowfull
,
for
that
one
way
she
saw
plainely
that
to
be
the
Ilande
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
ariued
,
and
an
other
waye
,
those
tokens
with
the
wonderfull
things
which
she
hadde
heard
of
that
diuelish
Fauno
,
did
put
her
in
great
feare
that
he
was
slaine
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
her
a
thing
impossible
,
that
any
humaine
creature
could
bring
in
subiection
so
diuelish
and
misshapen
a
beast
.
Being
in
this
thought
,
for
feare
and
griefe
of
the
worst
,
she
shed
so
manie
teares
,
that
they
ranne
trickling
downe
her
faire
chéekes
,
that
she
was
all
to
be
bathed
in
them
:
so
after
a
while
that
she
had
bene
there
,
she
mounted
againe
vpon
her
horse
,
and
went
forewards
,
but
she
had
not
gone
farre
from
that
place
,
when
as
she
saw
the
good
horse
Cornerino
,
who
was
loose
an●
at
his
libertie
in
the
fielde
,
who
like
a
wilde
beast
came
running
towardes
her
like
vnto
a
whirle
winde
,
leaping
and
frisking
in
the
ayre
,
and
neighed
as
though
he
receiued
great
ioye
and
comfort
at
the
companie
of
the
other
horse
,
as
one
that
manie
dayes
before
had
bene
there
all
alone
,
but
when
the
Princes
sawe
him
and
knew
him
verie
well
,
she
thought
verilie
that
her
heart
would
haue
burst
with
sorrow
,
where
with
her
eyes
burst
out
with
teares
,
and
hauing
no
power
to
speake
one
word
,
she
sayde
with
in
her selfe
,
Oh
good
horse
how
is
it
,
that
thy
maister
hath
left
thy
companie
:
surely
it
cannot
be
well
with
him
,
séeing
that
he
hath
left
thée
,
for
thou
art
so
good
a
péece
,
that
thou
art
to
be
estéemed
of
all
the
Princ●●
in
the
world
:
and
neither
thy
maister
nor
thy selfe
doth
●eserue
to
dwell
in
deserts
.
But
alas
what
shall
I
saye
,
I
am
she
that
hath
bone
the
occasion
of
all
this
,
and
I
beséech
the
soueraigne
creator
of
all
the
worlde
,
that
it
fall
not
out
,
that
I
am
the
occasion
of
his
death
,
for
if
it
be
so
that
I
haue
ben
the
author
and
chiefe
instrument
of
his
death
,
I
will
also
with
these
my
handes
be
reuenged
on
my selfe
with
cruell
death
,
and
neuer
depart
from
out
of
this
Ilande
,
but
make
it
my
sepulture
,
for
that
one
countrie
shall
possesse
the
bones
of
vs
bothe
,
so
shall
we
remaine
in
death
together
,
although
that
cruell
Fortune
and
my
euill
destinies
would
not
permit
and
suffer
that
in
our
liues
we
could
enioye
the
one
the
other
.
In
saying
these
words
to
her selfe
,
the
Princes
procured
for
to
take
the
horse
,
somewhat
for
to
comfort
her selfe
with
his
companie
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
manie
times
dyd
ryde
him
,
but
by
no
meanes
she
could
not
doe
it
,
for
that
the
horse
was
fierce
and
couragious
,
and
would
not
suffer
himselfe
to
be
taken
of
anie
other
but
of
his
maister
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
whome
he
dyd
visit
manie
times
,
and
fedde
diuerse
and
sundrie
times
before
him
,
in
the
place
whereas
he
abode
.
This
séeing
,
the
royall
Princes
,
all
to
be
bathed
with
teares
,
which
for
her
knights
sake
she
shedde
;
passed
forwards
on
her
determined
iourney
,
but
she
hadde
not
trauailed
farre
,
when
as
she
came
vnto
the
craggie
and
hard
Rocke
that
he
hadde
so
cutte
and
sheuered
to
péeces
,
but
yet
such
was
his
force
and
strength
of
his
arme
,
and
the
goodnesse
of
his
sworde
,
and
vppon
the
toppe
of
the
same
,
shee
sawe
where
hunge
the
rich
sword
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
the
scabbard
and
the
hangers
,
which
were
wrought
and
embrodered
with
gold
,
and
set
with
precious
stones
:
and
knowing
it
verie
well
,
she
was
at
that
present
more
astonied
&
amazed
then
she
was
before
,
and
comming
nigh
vnto
it
,
she
reade
that
which
was
written
in
a
plaine
place
of
the
same
stone
,
but
when
she
had
well
understoode
the
effect
thereof
,
it
cannot
be
rehearsed
what
she
felt
at
that
time
at
her
heart
,
considering
of
●hrée
strange
&
meruailous
things
that
was
represented
there
,
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
The
one
the
great
loyaltie
and
reuerence
that
he
had
vnto
her
,
insomuch
that
he
had
stroke
her
with
his
swoord
,
yet
in
the
time
of
that
great
necessitie
,
he
left
the
same
,
because
he
would
not
defile
it
with
any
other
bloud
.
An
other
,
in
the
great
and
soueraigne
force
and
courage
which
he
had
,
for
to
goe
fight
with
that
diuelish
Fauno
,
without
any
sword
.
The
third
,
in
the
great
and
incredible
strength
which
he
had
,
for
to
cut
and
cleane
that
cragged
and
hard
Rock
,
sheuering
of
such
greate
péeces
,
as
verie
plainely
it
might
be
séene
,
that
euerie
sheuer
was
a
blow
with
the
sword
:
all
the
which
béeing
by
her
considered
,
the
great
ioy
and
pleasure
which
she
should
receiue
in
acknowledging
the
great
loyaltie
of
her
knight
,
was
tourned
into
great
anguish
and
griefe
,
in
seing
the
rewarde
he
receiued
at
her
hands
in
recompence
of
the
great
loue
&
fidelitie
he
had
borne
vnto
her
.
And
the
more
greater
his
wonderfull
and
excelent
déedes
séemed
to
be
,
so
much
more
she
waxed
penitent
,
and
repented
her selfe
,
and
with
so
great
griefe
,
that
it
séem●d
her
soule
would
depart
her
bodie
,
she
saide
as
followeth
.
OH
my
verie
good
friend
,
if
you
be
a
liue
,
how
dare
I
presume
to
come
into
your
presence
,
that
in
recompence
of
so
great
fidelitie
and
loue
(
which
your
déedes
doe
make
manifest
)
you
had
vnto
mée
,
and
I
to
haue
showed
my selfe
so
cruell
and
contrarie
vnto
you
.
And
if
it
be
so
that
you
be
departed
this
world
,
what
reuenge
may
I
take
of
my selfe
,
to
make
it
equall
vnto
the
great
errour
which
I
haue
committed
:
of
trueth
no
other
but
with
this
thy
sword
,
I
will
open
my
entrailes
and
take
out
myne
owne
heart
,
that
ioyntly
it
may
remaine
in
this
solitarie
and
vnfortunate
Iland
,
as
a
signe
and
token
of
thy
great
fidelitie
and
faithfull
good
will
vnto
mée
:
and
contrariewise
,
my
great
crueltie
towards
thy
guiltlesse
person
,
and
yet
this
wilb●
but
a
small
reuenge
for
so
great
an
euill
committed
for
the
death
of
so
high
and
e●cellent
a
Prince
cannot
be
reuenged
by
my
death
.
In
saying
these
words
and
other
more
of
great
dolour
,
&
griefe
,
and
in
shedding
great
abundance
of
teares
,
she
ouerwept
her selfe
,
and
was
verie
desirous
to
proceede
forwards
to
knowe
what
was
become
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
leauing
the
sworde
hanging
whereas
shee
found
it
,
shée
departed
from
thence
,
and
as
she
trauailed
for
a
great
space
with
a
sodaine
feare
that
came
ouer
her
heart
in
such
sorte
,
that
all
her
members
shaked
,
that
shée
coulde
not
almost
go
forwardes
,
still
misdoubting
the
successe
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Then
after
a
while
hauing
not
trauailed
the
full
quantitie
of
a
mile
,
a
great
waie
before
shée
came
whereas
the
Fauno
was
slaine
,
shée
sawe
from
a
farre
off
the
great
bulke
of
the
monstrous
and
mis-shapen
bodie
,
which
seemed
to
be
a
great
house
ouerthrowen
,
it
was
so
great
,
and
imagining
what
it
should
bée
,
shée
went
that
waie
,
but
when
she
came
there
shée
was
straunglie
amazed
to
sée
the
infernall
figure
of
that
mishapen
beast
,
and
yet
more
horrible
and
wonderfull
it
was
than
héeretofore
it
hath
beene
tolde
you
,
for
that
there
was
no
vnderstanding
of
man
that
was
sufficient
to
imagine
the
great
deformitie
of
this
beast
,
beeing
dead
as
hée
was
,
but
the
good
Princesse
had
not
much
time
to
pervse
the
great
vglinesse
of
this
beast
,
for
when
shée
salve
all
the
armour
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
there
laide
vppon
the
stone
,
and
knew
them
verie
well
by
the
straunge
and
rich
worke
that
was
in
them
,
her
heart
was
readie
to
breake
with
dolour
and
griefe
,
and
almost
from
her
selfelshe
fell
from
her
horse
downe
to
the
grounde
,
whereas
she
laie
a
good
while
vpon
the
gréene
grasse
in
a
sound
,
and
coulde
not
speake
anie
one
worde
,
but
laie
as
though
shée
hadde
bene
dead
,
but
within
a
while
after
shée
came
againe
vnto
her selfe
,
and
arose
vp
,
and
went
forthwith
vnto
the
armour
,
and
embracing
her selfe
with
them
,
shée
vttered
these
wordes
,
with
so
great
sorrowe
and
griefe
,
that
shée
would
haue
moued
anie
man
to
compassion
to
haue
heard
her
,
but
in
especiall
when
that
shée
hadde
read
that
which
was
written
vppon
the
Stone
,
which
was
in
this
manner
following
.
This
is
the
diuellish
Fauno
,
sonne
vnto
the
diuell
,
begotten
of
Artimaga
,
who
was
slaine
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
Prince
of
Grecia
,
who
being
determined
to
leaue
the
world
,
would
conclude
and
end
his
daies
in
this
solitarie
Iland
,
this
was
his
armour
,
the
which
he
doth
leaue
héer●
in
signe
of
the
last
victorie
that
hée
concluded
in
his
life
time
.
When
the
Princesse
had
concluded
the
reading
of
these
lines
,
shée
lacked
but
a
little
to
conclude
her
ende
,
for
that
by
those
wordes
shée
conceiued
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
was
dead
,
especiallie
when
shée
looked
about
on
euerie
side
,
and
could
sée
no
other
signe
nor
token
of
him
,
shée
conie●●ured
euill
in
●er
owne
imagination
,
and
hauing
net
so
much
force
and
strength
for
to
suffer
that
mortall
griefe
,
in
great
rage
and
anguish
of
her
heart
,
she
embraced
her self
with
the
armour
and
sayd
.
OH
good
knight
,
what
is
become
of
thée
,
that
in
this
sort
thou
hast
left
thy
excellent
and
precious
armour
,
God
hath
created
thée
of
so
great
magnamitie
aboue
all
other
knightes
in
the
worlde
,
for
to
leade
thy
life
in
the
desarts
,
like
vnto
brute
beasts
,
and
if
it
bée
so
that
I
am
in
●ault
,
and
haue
béene
the
occasion
of
all
this
euill
,
héere
I
doe
promise
and
make
a
vowe
vnto
thee
,
neuer
to
depart
from
hence
alone
,
except
it
be
in
thy
companie
,
héere
will
I
end
my
sorrowfull
dayes
,
héere
will
I
for
euer
make
my
bedde
on
this
hard
ground
,
and
neuer
laie
my
head
vpon
anie
other
thing
than
the
harde
stones
,
for
that
with
the
hardnesse
of
them
I
may
molli●i●
my
harde
heart
that
was
so
hardned
against
th●e
,
my
sustenaunce
shall
bée
no
other
thing
but
griefes
and
sighes
,
and
that
which
I
will
drinke
shall
be
the
teares
that
distilleth
from
the
fountaines
of
my
eyes
,
and
I
will
not
haue
anie
other
companie
but
alonelie
this
armour
,
the
which
so
many
times
and
oft
hath
béene
vppon
the
worthie
bodie
of
that
good
Knight
,
and
defended
him
from
my
raging
and
mortall
blowes
.
These
shall
bée
onelie
my
comfort
,
and
the
myrrour
whereon
I
will
looke
,
for
that
the
memorie
of
them
shall
euerie
moment
increa●e
my
heauie
dolour
.
I
will
wander
all
alone
in
these
desarts
lyke
the
Turtle
doue
,
that
hath
lost
her
louing
mate
,
and
giue
shrikes
in
this
wildernesse
lyke
vnto
Narh●o
,
to
see
if
thou
wilt
aunswere
mée
,
as
the
Nymph
Eco
dyd
aunswere
him
.
These
and
many
other
thinges
spake
the
Princesse
,
tormenting
her selfe
with
exceeding
greate
anguish
and
griefe
.
Then
in
the
end
of
halfe
an
houre
that
she
was
there
,
shee
remembred
how
that
the
wise
Artidon
had
tolde
her
,
that
she
should
finde
him
in
that
Iland
,
yet
she
doubted
verie
much
of
his
life
,
to
see
all
that
she
hadde
seene
before
,
although
by
that
remembrance
thee
〈◊〉
some
hope
.
Likewise
shee
called
vnto
her
remembrance
,
that
hee
sayde
that
shée
should
make
hast
in
his
demaund
,
for
that
it
might
so
fall
out
,
that
his
comfort
might
come
to
late
,
by
reason
that
he
was
brought
into
so
great
〈◊〉
and
daunger
of
his
lyfe
.
which
doubt
brought
her
〈◊〉
so
greate
con●●sion
,
that
hee
heart
sayled
her
,
and
it
〈◊〉
that
thee
had
neyther
force
nor
strength
sufficient
for
to
〈◊〉
anie
farther
forwardes
,
but
as
ended
dyd
verie
well
behol●e
that
diuellishe
and
infernall
Fauno
,
to
see
how
that
r●gorous
battaile
was
〈◊〉
,
shee
sawe
the
greate
and
wonderfull
horne
that
was
broken
off
from
his
head
,
and
his
scull
broken
all
to
péeces
,
and
his
great
and
mightie
clubbe
lying
thereby
,
whereby
she
dyd
vnderstand
howe
and
after
what
manner
he
was
slaine
,
and
giuing
a
greate
and
deepe
sigh
the
sayde
as
followeth
.
Oh
excellent
knight
,
howe
worthie
are
thy
déedes
to
bee
published
throughout
all
the
worlde
,
and
with
great
reason
the
déedes
of
all
other
knightes
ought
to
bee
put
to
silence
,
and
neuer
more
to
bée
spoken
of
,
for
the
worthinesse
of
thy
deeds
being
so
excellent
as
they
are
,
so
manie
,
and
of
so
great
admiration
,
and
dispearsed
abroade
in
so
many
Countries
,
that
they
cannot
be
séene
,
neither
be
hearde
of
,
and
those
which
doth
not
sée
them
,
how
can
they
beléeue
them
?
Héere
I
doe
desire
the
vniuersall
creator
,
that
now
,
neyther
in
the
times
to
come
they
may
not
bée
forgotten
.
After
that
this
royall
Princesse
had
sayde
these
wordes
in
the
praise
of
her
knight
,
shée
departed
from
thence
,
and
began
to
goe
and
to
séeke
him
,
and
for
that
shée
could
not
finde
him
there
aboutes
,
she
woulde
haue
mounted
vppon
her
horse
to
séeke
farther
into
the
Iland
,
but
it
fell
out
,
whether
it
was
with
the
feare
of
the
Fauno
,
or
for
to
goe
with
the
horse
Cornerino
,
by
anie
meanes
shée
could
not
take
her
horse
,
but
he
fled
from
that
place
with
so
great
swiftnesse
,
that
in
a
short
space
the
Princesse
lost
the
sight
of
him
,
for
the
which
shée
receiued
great
griefe
,
so
by
force
shée
was
constrained
a
foote
to
goe
and
séeke
her
knight
,
the
which
she
dyd
on
euerie
side
,
but
coulde
finde
no
mention
of
him
,
which
caused
in
her
great
suspition
to
thinke
verilie
that
he
was
dead
,
so
that
many
times
she
staied
,
and
was
so
troubled
,
th●●
shée
thought
verilie
shée
should
haue
dyed
with
sorrowe
.
In
this
〈◊〉
shée
passed
all
the
daie
and
all
the
night
,
till
the
next
daie
in
the
morning
,
and
neuer
coulde
finde
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
with
so
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
as
though
her
soule
would
depart
from
her
bodie
.
And
for
to
tell
you
what
passed
with
him
,
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
her
till
time
doth
serue
.
The
life
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
lead
in
the
solitarie
Iland
,
and
how
hee
was
found
by
his
Ladie
the
Princesse
Claridiana
.
Chapter

29.
AFter
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
slaine
that
diuellish
Fauno
,
till
such
time
as
the
Princesse
Claridiana
came
vnto
thé
solitarie
Ilande
,
there
was
two
moneths
betwéene
,
as
saith
the
wise
Ly●gandeo
,
in
which
time
he
passed
his
life
with
sorrowes
and
complaints
,
sighs
and
sobs
,
all
the
daie
long
,
&
in
the
night
time
to
sléepe
vpon
the
hard
ground
,
although
for
to
withdrawe
himselfe
in
the
time
of
water
and
raine
,
and
from
the
heate
of
the
Sunne
,
he
made
a
cottage
couered
with
boughs
,
compassed
round
about
with
a
fountaine
,
scituated
vnder
a
companie
of
thick
trées
,
this
place
was
a
great
waie
separated
from
that
wheras
the
●auno
was
slaine
,
so
that
by
reason
that
the
Princesse
was
a
foot
,
as
yet
she
was
not
come
vnto
that
place
,
but
in
all
the
time
that
this
good
knight
was
there
,
he
neuer
eate
anie
other
thing
but
such
wilde
〈◊〉
and
rootes
as
he
found
in
the
Iland
,
so
that
with
great
h●●●nesse
he
did
sustaine
his
li●e
,
by
which
meanes
,
as
also
for
the
gre●t
heauinesse
and
griefe
which
hee
had
taken
in
his
heart
,
he
was
brought
verie
lo●●e
,
&
wared
leaue
and
〈◊〉
such
sort
,
that
whosoeuer
had
seene
him
shuld
not
haue
knowen
him
,
all
the
which
he
〈◊〉
with
great
patience
,
and
determined
in
that
sorte
to
ende
his
daies
,
h●e
was
brought
verie
weake
and
feeble
,
and
could
not
long
haue
●ndyred
if
remedie
had
not
come
in
time
▪
neither
could
〈…〉
to
straight
and
wearie
a
〈…〉
condition
and
strong
of
nature
.
There
was
not
in
all
the
Iland
anie
person
for
to
comfort
him
,
neither
〈…〉
thing
to
recreate
his
understanding
,
but
〈…〉
,
which
many
times
came
that
〈…〉
him
,
who
one
waie
gaue
him
some
com●ort
when
hee
sawe
him
,
and
another
waie
he
did
double
his
〈◊〉
,
in
calling
to
r●membrance
the
great
and
worthie
〈…〉
that
he
did
with
him
.
Likewise
the
〈◊〉
of
his
friends
turned
him
to
great
sorrow
,
as
●he
Emperour
●●cbatio
his
father
,
and
the
roiall
Empresse
〈◊〉
his
mother
,
his
good
brother
Rosicleer
,
and
of
all
the
rest
of
his
friends
,
and
he
found
himselfe
verie
solitarie
without
their
companie
,
but
by
reason
that
the
griefe
was
much
more
which
he
printed
in
his
heart
,
in
considering
the
misliking
and
euil
loue
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
there
was
nothing
sufficient
,
neither
that
raging
and
solitarie
life
which
hée
suffered
,
for
to
cause
him
once
to
change
his
minde
for
to
departs
from
that
place
,
for
that
many
times
he
said
vnto
himselfe
,
séeing
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
desired
his
death
,
and
that
she
procured
to
giue
it
him
with
her
owne
handes
,
hée
desired
to
liue
no
longer
in
this
world
,
at
least
waies
not
in
place
where
he
might
be
séene
of
people
.
Thus
in
the
end
of
all
this
time
that
hée
was
there
,
it
chaunced
the
finall
daie
of
all
his
troubles
to
bée
verie
hot
and
soultering
,
and
being
passed
a
great
parte
of
the
same
,
hée
went
forth
of
the
cottage
whereas
hée
was
,
and
went
and
put
himselfe
vnder
the
shadow
of
a
companie
of
thicke
trées
,
whereas
the
water
of
the
fountaine
passed
by
with
a
swift
course
,
the
place
was
verie
pleasant
and
delectable
,
and
béeing
sitten
downe
vpon
the
gréene
grasse
,
and
the
pittering
leaues
vpon
those
gréene
trées
béeing
moued
with
a
most
swéete
and
peaceable
winde
,
ioyntlie
with
the
cleere
water
of
that
fountaine
,
&
running
out
betwéene
the
stones
,
made
so
pleasant
and
delightfull
a
noise
,
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
being
ouerwatched
with
his
continuall
care
,
fell
asléepe
,
and
béeing
in
this
order
asléepe
,
lying
a
longe
vpon
the
gréene
hearbes
,
it
chaunced
to
be
the
verie
same
daie
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
went
to
séeke
him
,
with
great
sorrowe
and
griefe
because
shée
could
not
finde
him
,
neither
aliue
nor
dead
,
and
by
reason
that
shée
went
a
foote
,
and
the
daie
verie
hot
,
shée
waxed
somewhat
wearie
,
for
in
all
the
other
daie
past
,
and
in
that
daie
shée
neuer
ceased
séeking
of
him
round
about
in
all
partes
,
yet
notwithstanding
her
great
wearinesse
,
the
greate
care
that
shée
had
at
her
heart
was
the
occasion
that
shée
rested
not
till
such
time
as
fortune
brought
her
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
laie
vnder
the
trées
in
the
shadow
all
along
a
sléepe
,
but
when
shee
found
him
whereas
hée
laie
in
that
order
vppon
the
ground
,
and
knew
him
,
there
was
no
humane
pleasure
that
might
bée
compared
vnto
that
which
shée
receiued
at
that
instant
,
for
shée
remained
a
good
space
as
if
it
had
bene
one
transported
into
a
new
world
without
anie
remembrance
,
and
it
séemed
verilie
that
it
had
not
bene
possible
so
greate
ioy
and
pleasure
should
haue
entred
into
her
brest
,
although
to
the
contrarie
when
as
she
sawe
that
good
knight
,
the
flower
of
all
the
knighthoode
in
the
worlde
,
to
be
so
lea●e
and
wanne
,
and
put
into
so
asper
and
straight
life
,
shee
shedde
great
abundaunce
of
teares
which
ranne
downe
her
faire
face
,
wherwith
she
was
so
bathed
,
that
when
she
came
nigh
vnto
him
,
she
remained
a
pretie
while
as
in
contemplation
,
and
could
not
satisfie
her selfe
in
beholding
him
,
for
although
hee
was
vnarmed
,
and
laie
along
vpon
the
harde
ground
,
yet
dyd
hée
shew
forth
that
soueraigne
maiestie
and
graue
semblance
wherewith
hée
was
adorned
,
hee
was
apparelled
in
a
doublet
of
cloth
of
golde
somewhat
worne
out
,
and
his
faire
yeolow
haire
,
which
séemed
to
bée
●kaines
of
golde
,
was
spread
vppon
the
gréene
grasse
,
and
his
seuere
countenance
,
although
it
were
leane
and
wanne
,
did
shew
forth
the
gallant
perfection
wrought
therein
by
nature
.
For
as
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
sayth
,
and
as
it
hath
beene
declared
in
many
places
of
this
Hystorie
,
the
proportion
of
his
bodie
,
hée
saith
that
he
had
a
long
visage
,
almost
a
spanae
and
a
halfe
long
,
besides
his
beard
,
which
at
this
time
was
somewhat
growen
,
a
broade
forehead
and
bigge
eies
,
his
eye
browes
compassing
like
an
arke
,
and
almost
a
hande
breadth
from
point
to
point
,
his
nose
was
somewhat
sharpe
,
a
lyttle
mouth
,
and
his
lippes
verie
redde
,
hee
was
of
a
gallant
stature
,
which
was
about
eight
fo●te
long
,
and
is
sufficient
for
a
Gyant
,
and
all
his
members
so
well
proportioned
,
that
it
séemed
Nature
dyd
straine
her selfe
,
and
indued
him
with
all
graces
.
Therefore
because
hee
was
so
bigge
and
well
made
in
euerie
part
,
with
that
greate
maiestie
in
his
countenaunce
as
hée
laie
along
vppon
the
grasse
,
that
sure
it
was
a
straunge
thing
to
beholde
,
and
the
Princesse
dyd
neuer
vntil
that
daie
sée
him
in
apparaile
that
it
better
please
her
,
and
giue
her
greater
contentment
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
shée
remained
there
a
good
while
beholding
of
him
as
one
greatlie
astonished
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
her
that
his
shape
dyd
verie
farre
surpasse
all
humane
vnderstanding
,
and
she
sayd
within
her selfe
that
God
had
not
created
that
knight
of
so
good
a
disposition
for
to
liue
in
the
deserts
,
and
how
that
she
deserued
all
euill
for
that
she
was
the
occasion
of
his
sorrowe
and
troubles
.
In
the
meane
time
that
shée
thus
debated
with
himselfe
,
the
good
knight
began
to
moue
himselfe
and
turned
into
another
place
,
and
began
to
distill
from
his
eies
so
greate
abundaunce
of
teares
,
that
it
was
a
griefe
to
beholde
.
Then
she
because
she
woulde
not
wake
him
quicklie
,
withdrew
her selfe
on
the
one
side
,
and
stoode
behinde
a
trée
,
where
she
tarried
to
sée
▪
what
he
would
doe
,
but
could
not
satisfie
her selfe
in
beholding
him
,
and
giuing
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
for
that
she
had
found
him
aliue
.
All
this
time
the
good
knight
was
in
a
dreame
,
and
dreamed
that
the
Princesse
Clandiana
his
mistres
was
come
into
that
Iland
,
and
how
that
she
went
round
about
in
seeking
him
and
could
not
finde
him
,
and
he
hauing
a
desire
to
goe
vnto
her
,
procured
himselfe
to
arise
,
but
by
anie
meanes
he
could
not
,
for
his
strength
would
not
serue
him
,
and
shee
séeing
that
she
could
not
finde
him
,
returned
againe
vnto
the
Sea
side
,
whereat
he
receiued
so
great
sorrow
and
griefe
that
he
wept
,
and
shed
those
teares
which
the
Princesse
,
had
séene
.
Likewise
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
she
was
departed
,
which
caused
in
him
so
great
anguish
and
griefe
,
that
in
the
end
he
awaked
as
one
scared
and
amazed
,
but
when
he
saw
it
was
but
a
dreame
,
his
griefe
increased
the
more
,
&
tumb●ing
himselfe
from
one
part
vnto
another
,
wi●h
mortall
griefe
and
raging
anguish
he
said
.
Oh
loue
how
is
it
that
thou
art
new
become
lesse
pittifull
and
more
cruell
than
anie
furie
,
and
more
stronger
and
terrible
than
anie
of
the
elements
?
All
things
created
hath
but
one
kinde
of
death
,
but
against
mortal
men
thou
hast
so
many
and
so
different
kinde
of
torments
,
for
to
cause
them
to
die
,
as
there
is
difference
in
the
diuersitie
of
thy
thoughts
and
desires
,
but
yet
if
God
were
so
pleased
,
that
some
of
them
might
make
an●
end
and
separate
this
soule
from
this
my
sorrowfull
and
heauie
bodie
,
for
that
it
might
be
cléere
from
this
outragious
and
burning
fire
,
but
this
is
thy
order
of
crueltie
,
to
kill
him
that
is
liuing
,
&
not
him
that
hath
time
to
bewaile
his
death
.
Let
it
suffice
thée
(
Loue
)
this
great
disfauour
that
I
haue
receiued
at
thy
hands
,
and
let
it
content
thée
in
that
I
was
of
the
world
,
and
now
thou
hast
banished
me
into
this
solitarie
Iland
,
and
doe
not
now
giue
mee
anie
new
kindes
of
tormet
,
in
making
me
beleeue
in
dreames
,
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
my
mistres
doeth
come
to
seeke
me
,
and
to
set
me
at
libertie
of
this
exile
to
the
which
I
am
committed
?
How
is
it
possible
that
shee
should
haue
anie
care
,
sorrow
,
or
griefe
ouer
me
,
she
lifting
vp
the
sword
with
her
rigorous
arme
for
to
kill
me
,
and
againe
,
so
high
and
soueraigne
a
Ladie
shoulde
come
and
seeke
a
knight
so
vnfortunate
and
abased
as
I
am
?
It
may
well
be
said
that
it
is
a
dreame
,
being
a
thing
so
variable
and
out
of
all
consert
,
and
I
doe
now
well
vnderstand
,
that
it
is
a
new
procuration
of
loue
to
call
vnto
my
remembraunce
,
setting
before
mine
eies
that
high
and
soueraigne
glory
,
that
after
being
deceiued
,
and
finding
my selfe
frustrate
and
not
worthie
thereof
,
it
may
be
the
occasion
that
my
sorrow
and
griefe
maye
the
more
augment
.
But
now
(
Loue
)
vse
thy
will
against
me
,
and
let
fortune
shew
me
as
much
crueltie
as
she
can
,
for
that
the
crueltie
of
the
one
nor
the
tyrannie
of
the
other
is
sufficient
for
to
make
me
to
leaue
off
and
not
for
to
loue
the
Empresse
Claridiana
my
Ladie
&
Mistres
,
and
louing
her
,
for
to
suffer
&
abide
anie
kinde
of
torment
whatsoeuer
for
her
sake
,
for
that
the
daie
will
come
that
the
life
shall
leaue
this
mortall
bodie
,
&
the
burning
fire
which
continuallie
flameth
shall
cease
his
furie
.
In
saying
these
wordes
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
expressed
so
great
sorrow
,
throwing
from
him
such
profound
sighs
,
that
the
Princesse
did
verie
well
vnderstande
the
greate
griefe
that
he
had
at
his
heart
,
and
thought
it
not
at
that
time
perillous
to
giue
vpon
a
sodaine
knowledge
of
her
being
there
,
for
that
she
could
not
suffer
anie
longer
to
hide
her selfe
,
but
would
put
remedie
to
her
euill
,
but
yet
for
that
shée
would
that
that
pleasure
should
enter
into
him
by
little
and
little
she
pulled
downe
the
beaue●
of
her
helme
,
in
such
sort
that
he
could
not
know
her
,
and
began
to
goe
towards
him
,
making
a
noise
with
her
going
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
heard
it
,
and
looking
about
to
see
what
it
was
,
he
was
greatlie
amazed
to
sée
that
knight
there
a
foote
,
and
one
of
a
gallant
disposition
and
well
armed
,
wher
withall
he
straight
waies
arose
vp
vpon
his
féete
and
did
abide
his
comming
,
then
the
Princesse
,
changing
her
voice
all
that
she
could
,
saluted
him
,
saying
.
God
defend
and
kéepe
thée
noble
and
famous
knight
,
for
that
as
I
vnderstand
,
and
according
vnto
the
things
which
I
haue
séene
in
this
Iland
,
you
should
be
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
hath
slaine
the
diuellish
Fauno
.
So
the
Lorde
increase
in
you
gentilitie
and
worthinesse
,
Sir
Knight
,
(
he
answered
)
truth
it
is
that
I
am
the
knight
whom
you
haue
named
,
and
meruaile
greatlie
to
see
you
in
this
place
,
for
that
many
daies
past
there
hath
not
landed
at
this
Ilande
anie
other
person
but
I
alone
.
I
doe
verilie
beléeue
it
(
sayde
the
Princesse
)
for
that
this
was
not
a
Countrie
that
anie
other
should
enter
in
of
lesse
bountie
&
valiant
force
than
that
of
yours
,
for
that
there
is
none
other
in
al
the
whole
world
amongst
humane
creatures
,
but
onelie
you
,
that
was
sufficient
for
to
cléere
and
set
at
libertie
the
entr●e
into
this
Iland
.
And
you
shall
vnderstand
that
by
the
force
of
a
greate
storme
that
wée
had
at
the
Sea
,
we
were
driuen
vnto
this
Ilande
,
and
being
desirous
for
to
knowe
what
Countrie
it
was
,
I
came
ashore
,
whereas
I
haue
seene
so
many
strange
things
,
that
so
long
as
I
doe
liue
,
I
shall
haue
inough
to
do
to
tell
of
the
same
,
and
I
giue
great
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
who
hath
brought
mée
hether
,
as
well
for
that
I
haue
séene
some
parte
of
your
worthinesse
,
as
also
for
to
importune
and
desire
you
for
to
leaue
this
solitarie
life
(
which
appertaineth
vnto
brute
beasts
)
and
to
departe
from
hence
,
turning
a
new
to
vse
and
exercise
your
armour
,
for
that
such
a
worthie
Knight
as
you
are
,
shoulde
not
bée
absent
from
the
worlde
,
and
héerin
you
commit
great
offence
against
God
,
for
that
hée
hath
employed
in
you
so
greate
bountie
,
and
you
not
to
vse
it
,
you
shall
vnderstand
that
God
did
not
giue
it
vnto
you
for
your selfe
alone
,
but
also
for
to
defend
and
succour
all
such
as
hath
neede
thereof
.
Lykewise
it
cannot
bée
without
grieuous
offending
of
the
almighte
God
,
to
cause
vnto
your
parents
so
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
alonelie
for
your
absence
,
which
is
no
lesse
griefe
vnto
them
than
the
death
,
and
for
my
parte
heere
I
doe
aduertise
you
,
that
if
you
doe
not
out
of
hande
departe
from
hence
in
my
companie
,
that
I
wil
remaine
héere
with
you
and
beare
you
companie
,
and
will
not
departe
from
hence
till
that
death
doth
conclude
and
make
an
ende
of
one
of
vs
or
both
together
.
The
Knight
of
the
Sunne
was
greatlie
amazed
as
well
at
the
gentle
disposition
of
the
Princesse
,
as
also
at
the
great
bountie
and
curtesie
which
shée
offered
vnto
him
,
and
beléeued
verilie
,
as
well
in
the
riches
of
his
armour
,
as
in
all
other
thinges
,
that
hée
shoulde
bée
some
knight
of
highe
estate
,
and
beeing
verie
desirous
to
gratifie
his
wordes
,
hée
sayde
.
Sir
Knight
,
I
doe
giue
you
great
thankes
for
this
your
curtesie
and
great
good
will
which
you
doe
offer
vnto
mée
,
and
I
woulde
if
it
were
Gods
will
that
my
fortune
might
bée
such
,
that
I
were
able
to
doe
you
anie
seruice
or
pleasure
,
but
my
fortune
hath
béene
so
contrarie
,
and
my
euyll
destinie
hath
brought
me
vnto
this
estate
,
that
I
cannot
affoorde
my selfe
to
leade
anie
other
lyfe
than
this
which
I
doe
now
leade
,
neither
haue
I
remaining
in
mée
so
much
power
and
libertie
for
to
accomplish
anie
thing
of
this
which
you
haue
spoken
vnto
mée
off
,
for
that
according
vnto
the
greate
fire
wherewith
I
am
tormented
,
I
haue
not
anie
more
hope
of
my
life
,
neither
haue
I
anie
more
certaine
continuance
than
the
flame
that
in
hast
consumeth
a
candle
,
and
he
that
hath
his
end
so
nigh
at
hande
,
to
what
purpose
,
(
I
praie
you
)
should
he
goe
and
séeke
his
owne
naturall
Countrie
,
for
to
die
there
,
for
that
it
is
death
to
leaue
both
both
the
one
other
,
and
as
wise
men
haue
sayde
,
That
vnto
man
there
is
no
Countrie
proper
,
but
all
the
whole
world
is
a
common
Inne
touching
this
mis●rable
life
,
and
for
that
Grecia
is
my
naturall
Countrie
,
in
no
part
in
all
the
world
can
the
death
be
more
grieuous
vnto
mée
than
there
,
the
lamentations
of
my
parents
,
the
teares
and
wéepings
of
my
brethren
,
the
complaints
of
my
friends
,
the
cryings
of
my
subiects
,
all
the
which
will
be
an
occasion
to
me
of
greater
torment
,
and
the
griefe
much
more
greater
vnto
them
,
so
that
for
to
excuse
all
this
I
am
determined
to
die
there
,
whereas
nothing
else
but
my
sorrowful
death
shall
be
grieuous
vnto
me
,
and
there
whereas
I
shall
alwaies
haue
it
in
memorie
,
and
now
séeing
that
my
fortune
will
not
suffer
nor
consent
to
anie
other
remedie
,
I
do
most
heartely
desire
you
(
gentle
knight
)
to
returne
againe
vnto
the
sea
vnto
your
owne
companie
from
whence
you
came
,
and
let
mée
remaine
héere
alone
in
this
Iland
,
and
although
it
be
solitarie
,
yet
am
I
accompanied
with
so
many
sorrowes
,
griefes
,
and
tormentes
,
that
I
haue
no
néede
of
anie
other
companie
.
Héere
the
Princesse
could
not
choose
but
féele
at
her
hart
verie
grieuous
the
wordes
of
her
knight
,
but
of
his
greate
fidelitie
she
was
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
,
and
had
great
pittie
of
his
sorrow
and
griefe
,
and
willing
to
proceede
in
farther
talke
with
him
,
she
said
:
Of
truth
(
worthie
Prince
)
I
doe
not
knowe
what
euill
this
of
yours
should
be
,
so
great
and
so
stran●e
,
that
in
this
sort
hath
taken
awaie
your
st●●ngth
,
that
all
the
power
you
haue
is
not
able
to
resist
it
,
if
it
bée
not
that
the
which
could
tame
the
mightie
Samson
,
the
most
strongest
of
all
men
,
and
that
Hercules
,
that
had
so
greate
power
and
force
against
the
Centauros
,
which
is
Loue
,
that
did
bring
these
in
subiection
and
many
others
moe
in
the
world
,
if
it
be
this
which
hath
brought
your
life
into
this
estate
,
I
knowe
not
what
she
shoulde
bee
that
against
you
should
shew
her selfe
so
cru●ll
,
except
it
be
such
as
w●ll
peruert
the
courses
and
naturall
mouings
,
for
being
as
you
are
amonst
Princes
the
most
highest
,
and
amongst
the
most
excellentest
,
and
inducd
with
all
goodnesse
of
nature
,
I
doe
beléeue
that
there
is
no
damsell
in
the
worlde
,
of
what
estate
and
beautie
so
euer
he
be
,
but
would
receiue
great
contentment
,
and
thinke
her selfe
happie
to
bée
of
you
beloued
,
knowing
the
loue
that
you
beare
vnto
her
to
bée
perfect
and
●oiall
,
and
if
it
fall
out
not
to
be
such
(
beléeue
mée
)
for
that
I
knowe
thus
much
of
women
,
that
first
they
will
consent
themselues
to
die
burning
in
amorous
fires
,
than
to
make
anie
shew
of
loue
vnto
them
that
they
thinke
to
haue
their
thoughtes
occupied
in
other
partes
,
and
so
farre
foorth
as
I
can
see
they
haue
great
reason
,
for
that
the
heart
of
a
man
being
set
vpon
more
than
one
,
there
is
none
that
hath
anie
parte
in
him
,
neither
can
his
loue
with
anie
bée
perfect
,
the
which
you
maye
verie
well
iudge
by
your selfe
,
in
thinking
of
that
which
you
would
do
,
if
so
bee
that
you
did
sée
this
to
bée
in
her
whome
you
at
this
present
doe
so
earnestlie
loue
.
Ah
good
knight
,
sayde
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
this
is
the
hidden
fire
wherewith
I
am
scorched
,
and
that
wherewith
the
bones
of
this
my
mortall
bodie
doth
consume
.
This
is
that
which
hath
me
prisoner
and
hath
inchaunted
me
,
and
that
to
whom
all
my
force
and
strength
is
yéelded
,
without
hauing
anie
other
thing
in
mée
to
make
anie
resistance
,
but
to
doe
that
which
hée
desired
,
and
suffer
with
a
good
will
all
such
paines
and
tormentes
as
hée
giueth
mée
,
estéeming
much
of
the
wound
,
making
poison
to
bée
sauourie
,
bitter
swéete
,
paine
delectable
,
torment
,
ioy
and
pleasure
,
and
finallie
,
death
to
bée
verie
swéete
and
easie
.
And
if
that
loue
hath
shewed
her selfe
so
cruell
against
mée
,
good
knight
doe
not
meruaile
thereat
,
for
that
,
that
high
and
soueraine
Damsell
,
the
which
my
fortune
and
destinie
dyd
permit
mée
to
loue
,
is
of
so
greate
valour
and
high
desert
,
that
héere
I
doe
confesse
that
I
am
not
worthie
of
her
,
for
that
fortune
amongest
humane
creatures
did
exalt
her
most
highest
,
and
nature
did
painte
her
in
such
sorte
(
that
putting
a
parte
the
power
of
God
)
I
am
perswaded
that
there
was
to
bée
done
no
more
on
her
.
This
waie
hath
shée
bene
cruell
vnto
mée
,
and
not
that
waie
(
Sir
Knight
)
which
you
haue
giuen
mée
to
vnderstand
,
for
that
shée
it
is
alone
whom
I
loue
,
and
my
heart
is
fixed
vppon
no
other
but
onelie
vpon
her
.
It
is
not
néedfull
that
I
saie
anie
more
heerein
,
for
that
my
lyfe
doth
beare
witnesse
of
my
greate
fidelitie
,
for
i●
so
be
that
I
had
my
thought
fixed
in
anie
other
place
,
then
should
not
my
disfauour
haue
so
much
force
and
power
ouer
mée
,
as
to
cause
mée
to
receiue
suche
mortall
griefe
.
Then
shée
sayde
,
of
my
faith
(
Sir
Knight
)
according
vnto
your
wordes
,
and
as
you
haue
giuen
mée
to
vnderstande
by
them
,
it
can
bée
no
other
for
whome
you
doe
suffer
this
sorrow
and
griefe
,
but
Claridiana
,
the
Empresse
of
T●apisonda
,
for
that
shée
is
a
Damsell
,
as
well
in
highnesse
as
in
beautie
and
gifts
of
nature
,
that
doth
surpasse
all
other
that
be
in
the
world
,
and
if
this
bée
not
true
,
I
tell
you
that
you
doe
iniurie
mée
in
this
which
you
haue
sayd
,
for
that
I
haue
séene
her
,
and
I
doe
beléeue
that
she
hath
not
her
equall
in
the
world
.
The
great
sorrow
and
griefe
of
my
heart
(
said
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
)
vnto
her
alone
I
wold
that
it
were
manifest
,
but
for
that
I
will
not
doe
so
great
iniurie
vnto
so
high
a
damsell
a●
you
haue
héere
mentioned
,
and
again
because
you
shall
not
saie
that
I
lack
reason
in
this
which
I
haue
said
,
I
giue
you
to
vnderstand
of
a
truth
,
that
she
is
the
partie
,
and
now
seeing
that
I
haue
tolde
you
,
I
most
heartelie
desire
you
,
that
so
long
as
you
do
liue
,
you
keepe
it
secret
,
for
that
séeing
I
must
die
for
her
sake
,
yet
I
would
not
for
all
the
worlde
that
she
should
be
accounted
culpable
of
my
death
.
Now
wil
I
giue
you
to
vnderstand
,
said
the
Princesse
,
that
there
is
remedie
put
in
all
this
your
sorrow
and
griefe
,
and
that
your
fortune
is
much
better
than
you
did
make
reckoning
of
,
for
that
I
doe
know
this
damsell
,
and
am
certaine
that
many
daies
since
she
hath
trauailed
in
your
demand
with
greate
sorrow
and
care
for
to
finde
you
,
and
according
vnto
the
wordes
which
I
heard
,
and
the
profound
sighs
which
I
haue
séene
her
vtter
,
I
doe
beléeue
of
certaintie
,
that
she
doth
beare
you
as
much
good
loue
as
you
doe
beare
vnto
her
,
&
if
it
bée
so
that
you
haue
receiued
anie
disfauour
or
discurtesie
at
her
hands
,
it
is
not
vnknowen
,
that
ouer
much
loue
many
times
is
the
occasion
of
iealous
thoughts
conceiued
against
them
whom
they
loue
,
the
which
she
might
well
haue
,
in
seeing
you
in
companie
with
some
other
faire
damsell
,
&
afterward
being
certefied
of
your
fidelitie
,
repented
her selfe
,
and
then
the
loue
which
before
she
bare
vnto
you
,
to
be
a
new
redoubled
in
her
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
that
doth
in●ame
and
kindle
the
amorous
hearts
,
so
much
as
d●th
a
false
iealousie
,
when
that
faithfullie
they
are
certefied
to
the
contrarie
,
for
then
all
wrath
and
anger
is
turned
vnto
loue
,
and
is
the
ocsion
the
more
to
augment
and
increase
,
and
so
it
may
be
now
in
Claridiana
,
that
if
so
be
that
you
alonelie
doe
loue
her
,
then
was
it
not
possible
the
truth
to
be
hid
,
and
now
she
being
repented
of
that
which
is
past
,
it
doth
cause
her
(
as
I
haue
tolde
you
)
to
goe
in
your
demand
,
and
with
no
other
intent
but
to
aske
you
pardon
for
that
which
is
past
,
the
which
you
ought
out
of
hand
for
to
pardon
,
and
to
go
&
séeke
her
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
more
worthie
to
be
pardoned
,
than
those
errours
which
are
committed
by
ouer
much
louing
.
Then
he
said
:
Ah
sir
knight
,
tell
me
I
praie
you
where
you
did
see
my
Ladie
and
mistres
the
Empresse
Claridiana
,
and
how
you
doe
vnderstand
that
she
trauaileth
in
my
demand
,
for
that
of
truth
if
it
be
true
,
I
wil
presentlie
depart
and
go
séeke
her
vnto
the
worlds
end
,
onelie
for
to
sée
her
,
wherein
there
shall
bée
no
man
in
all
the
worlde
so
happie
as
I.
I
will
tell
you
how
I
doe
know
it
,
said
the
Empresse
,
for
that
it
is
not
many
daies
since
that
I
saw
her
,
and
if
thou
wilt
that
I
shal
tell
thée
true
,
not
many
hours
,
and
you
shal
vnderstand
that
yesterdaie
shée
ariued
in
this
Iland
in
your
demand
,
and
shée
is
a
aland
,
and
not
farre
from
you
,
and
I
doe
beléeue
that
that
is
shée
that
commeth
yonder
.
This
she
sayd
,
pointing
with
her
hand
towards
one
part
of
the
Forrest
,
that
waies
which
shée
came
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
all
amazed
and
ameruailed
,
as
of
a
thing
in
mockage
and
impossible
,
did
looke
towards
that
part
,
in
the
meane
time
the
Princesse
pulled
her
gantlets
from
her
white
hands
,
and
tooke●off
her
helme
,
wherewith
all
her
rubicond
haire
,
which
séemed
to
be
skaines
of
golde
spread
abrode
vpon
her
shoulders
,
of
so
great
length
,
that
it
reached
vnto
the
ground
,
and
shewed
forth
that
faire
face
with
so
great
strangenesse
and
maiestie
,
that
there
was
nothing
in
the
worlde
that
might
bée
compared
therevnto
,
and
the
more
her
beautie
shewed
for
that
shée
was
hot
in
trauailing
a
foote
,
by
reason
whereof
her
coulour
was
in
her
face
,
and
it
séemed
in
the
middest
of
her
white
chéeks
to
be
two
fragrant
red
Roses
,
her
faire
and
rowling
eies
glistered
like
vnto
two
verie
fine
and
greate
Emerodes
,
glittering
with
a
gréene
cléerenesse
,
in
so
profound
wise
,
that
in
them
it
might
be
naturallie
sayd
,
whosoeuer
did
beholde
them
,
to
bée
conuerted
into
stones
,
for
that
all
humane
vnderstanding
they
did
amaze
and
leaue
as
astonied
.
But
to
conclude
,
the
soueraigne
Princesse
in
all
pointes
séemed
rather
to
bée
a
diuine
thing
than
humane
,
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
with
great
attention
was
looking
towardes
that
place
whereas
shée
tolde
him
that
shée
was
comming
,
had
not
as
yet
seene
the
Princesse
in
that
order
,
till
within
a
while
after
,
séeing
that
hée
could
sée
no
bodie
comming
,
hée
tourned
his
head
about
for
to
aske
the
Knight
where
hée
hadde
séene
and
lefte
her
,
but
when
he
sawe
her
healme
off
,
and
knewe
her
by
her
fayre
face
,
it
cannot
bée
sayde
and
tolde
what
that
worthie
knight
at
that
instant
felt
within
himselfe
,
but
remayned
wonderfullie
amazed
,
and
meruailing
more
than
anie
man
in
the
worlde
,
without
anie
power
to
speake
one
worde
,
neither
mooued
hée
anie
eie
lidde
,
but
stoode
still
beholding
that
seraphicall
face
,
out
of
the
which
he
receiued
so
many
dazeling
sightes
and
glittering
cléerenesse
,
as
though
he
had
continuallie
looked
vpon
the
Sunne
in
the
morning
,
at
such
time
as
he
spreadeth
his
golden
beames
abroade
vpon
the
earth
.
Then
the
royall
Princesse
séeing
him
in
that
greate
perplexitie
,
with
the
excéeding
ioye
and
pleasure
shée
receiued
,
clasping
him
about
the
necke
,
and
embracing
him
,
shée
sayde
.
Iust
,
true
,
and
good
knight
,
séeing
that
I
am
shée
alone
that
haue
committed
this
errour
,
and
hath
bene
the
onely
occasion
of
all
this
your
sorow
and
griefe
,
I
am
héere
come
in
presence
to
make
a
meanes
for
the
same
,
and
to
cra●e
pardon
at
your
hands
for
all
that
is
past
,
for
if
I
haue
committed
any
offence
,
beleue
mee
,
it
was
by
the
ouerm●ch
loue
which
I
did
beare
you
,
and
your
troubles
and
sorowes
hath
grieued
mée
as
much
,
and
gone
as
nigh
my
heart
,
as
mine
hath
bene
vnto
you
,
in
such
sort
,
that
if
God
of
his
infinit
mercie
and
goodnesse
had
not
permitted
mée
to
finde
you
here
,
of
trueth
I
doe
tell
you
,
that
I
would
neuer
haue
departed
from
hence
aliue
,
for
that
I
was
determined
to
ende
my
dayes
,
leading
the
most
strictest
&
sorowfull
life
that
might
be
immagined
,
in
recompence
of
my
great
error
,
In
the
meane
time
that
the
Princes
spake
these
words
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
receiued
so
great
ioye
and
pleasure
,
in
séeing
him
in
the
presence
of
his
so
desired
mistresse
,
that
he
embrased
her
,
excusing
himselfe
with
such
amorous
&
swéet
words
,
that
he
thought
himselfe
transported
into
an
other
world
,
and
knew
not
whether
he
was
in
heauen
or
on
the
earth
.
And
comming
vnto
himselfe
after
that
he
had
receiued
that
curtesie
at
her
hands
,
knéeling
downe
before
her
,
he
tooke
and
kissed
her
lilie
white
hande
perforce
,
receiuing
thereby
more
glorie
,
then
if
he
had
bene
made
Lord
ouer
all
the
world
.
Then
the
Princes
a
new
,
did
embrace
him
,
and
almost
by
force
,
dyd
cause
him
to
arise
,
saying
,
your
highnes
(
worthie
Prince
)
doth
not
consent
,
that
you
vse
with
anie
this
courtesie
,
much
lesse
with
mée
,
that
am
whollie
yours
,
Then
the
good
knight
said
,
ah
mistresse
,
as
you
are
all
onely
she
in
all
the
world
(
next
vnto
God
)
that
may
shew
me
courtesie
,
so
haue
you
now
this
my
mortall
bodie
glad
,
ioyfull
,
and
happie
:
I
am
not
onely
bound
vnto
you
to
kisse
your
hands
,
but
if
so
be
that
the
great
loue
which
I
beare
vnto
you
doe
not
deserue
it
,
then
is
not
my
high
estate
sufficient
that
I
deserue
to
enioye
so
great
courtesie
,
and
héere
in
I
doe
receiue
so
great
glorie
,
that
if
continuallye
I
may
enioy
your
presen●e
,
with
a
verie
good
will
I
would
forget
all
highnes
and
royall
estates
,
and
liue
and
leade
my
lyfe
here
,
with
as
great
ioye
and
pleasure
in
your
companie
better
then
in
any
royall
pallace
,
and
thinke
my selfe
verely
to
be
in
eternall
Paradise
.
I
would
to
God
(
replyed
the
Princes
)
that
with
our
honors
and
emperial
states
,
we
might
accomplish
the
same
,
leading
our
liues
here
together
in
this
solitarie
Iland
,
for
that
for
my
pleasure
and
contentment
,
I
request
no
other
thing
,
but
onely
the
enioying
of
your
companie
,
in
place
whereas
I
might
not
be
desturbed
one
minute
of
an
houre
,
but
for
that
fortune
hath
exalted
vs
vnto
so
high
estate
,
and
that
God
hath
not
created
vs
with
so
great
callings
,
onely
to
serue
our selues
,
but
we
must
(
as
we
are
bound
)
accomplish
and
performe
our
duties
to
our
subiects
,
and
goe
and
sustaine
our
emperiall
estates
,
and
in
especially
you
,
hauing
so
excelent
parentage
,
you
are
the
more
bound
for
to
goe
and
see
them
,
and
to
take
from
them
by
your
presence
,
the
great
and
long
heauinesse
which
they
haue
receiued
by
your
absence
.
Then
the
good
knight
saide
,
Mistresse
,
I
doe
receiue
so
great
ioye
and
contentment
of
heart
,
onely
in
beholding
of
you
,
that
as
the
happie
saints
vnto
whome
the
losse
of
parents
,
nor
any
worldly
thing
can
cause
them
to
féele
anie
paine
,
sorow
,
and
griefe
:
euen
so
I
being
in
your
presence
,
there
is
no
absence
,
nor
any
other
thing
,
that
can
giue
or
cause
vnto
mée
,
sorow
and
griefe
,
but
yet
for
all
this
,
vse
you
your
will
and
discretion
,
for
that
I
haue
no
will
,
but
whereas
is
yours
.
These
and
many
other
mo
amorous
words
passed
béetwixt
these
two
true
and
perfect
louers
,
and
yet
could
neither
of
them
manifest
entirely
,
the
great
ioye
and
pleasure
the
which
they
receiued
at
their
hearts
.
After
a
while
that
they
had
passed
the
tune
in
this
their
ioyfull
méeting
,
they
sate
themselues
downe
vpon
the
gréene
grasse
,
in
the
shadow
vnder
those
huge
and
mightie
trées
,
whereas
with
swéete
words
,
&
still
more
amorous
then
eloquent
,
they
discoursed
the
one
with
the
other
,
of
all
thinges
that
hadde
happened
vnto
them
,
since
their
departure
out
of
Constantinople
.
And
the
princes
did
giue
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
to
vnderstand
the
occasion
why
and
wherefore
,
she
made
battaile
with
him
,
and
how
much
sorow
and
griefe
the
supition
thereof
dyd
cause
vnto
her
,
and
how
and
in
what
sort
she
was
put
out
of
all
doubt
concerning
the
same
.
Likewise
she
tolde
him
of
all
the
great
preparation
to
the
warres
which
was
made
in
Grecia
,
at
her
departure
,
and
how
she
vnderstoode
that
all
the
whole
Paganisme
,
and
a
great
part
of
Christendome
,
came
against
the
emperour
Trebatio
,
for
which
cause
he
dyd
put
himselfe
in
a
redinesse
to
receiue
them
,
and
was
verie
sad
and
sorowfull
for
his
absence
:
all
which
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
vnderstood
,
he
straight
waies
had
a
great
desire
to
be
in
Grecia
,
séeming
that
in
time
of
so
great
necessitie
,
there
was
no
reason
that
he
should
be
absent
,
in
especiall
for
that
the
chiefest
occasion
and
greatest
part
of
those
warres
were
for
his
sake
.
Being
in
this
communication
,
they
could
not
be
certified
the
one
to
heare
the
other
,
they
saw
comming
towardes
them
two
damsells
,
vpon
two
palfraies
,
whome
the
princes
dyd
straight
wayes
know
to
be
her
Damsells
,
whome
she
left
in
the
shippe
,
and
being
greatly
amazed
that
the
princes
taryed
so
long
and
not
retourned
,
came
a
land
,
and
went
in
her
demaunde
,
with
great
sorow
and
heauines
,
because
they
could
not
finde
her
:
but
when
they
sawe
her
and
knew
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
were
wonderfully
glad
,
as
well
for
the
ioye
which
theyr
mistresse
receiued
therein
,
as
also
for
the
strange
things
which
they
had
séene
in
that
Iland
.
And
surely
they
were
verie
sad
,
thinking
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
hadde
bene
dead
,
because
he
had
not
bene
heard
of
a
long
time
.
When
these
two
Damsells
came
vnto
them
,
they
left
&
ceased
their
amorus
communication
,
and
receiued
them
verie
courteously
.
Presently
vppon
the
gréene
grasse
they
dyd
eate
of
such
vittailes
as
the
Damsels
had
brought
a
shore
from
the
ship
,
for
their
Ladie
&
mistresse
,
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
the
great
ioye
and
pleasure
that
he
receiued
at
his
heart
,
the
coulour
and
semblant
of
his
face
was
chaunsed
,
so
that
he
séemed
an
other
maner
of
man
,
and
shewed
the
true
and
perfect●perfection
in
coulour
and
presence
,
the
which
nature
had
wrought
in
him
.
And
the
Princes
for
to
sée
him
in
that
sort
was
so
glad
&
ioyful
,
that
ther
was
no
pleasure
that
might
be
compared
vnto
hers
.
After
that
they
had
eaten
&
well
refreshed
themselues
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
séeing
his
good
horse
Cornerino
in
companie
with
that
of
the
Princesse
,
he
lured
,
and
straight
waies
he
came
vnto
him
,
for
that
he
had
vsed
him
therevnto
,
so
he
tooke
him
,
and
after
that
,
that
of
the
Princes
,
and
being
both
desirous
to
depart
from
thence
,
they
tooke
each
other
by
the
hande
and
went
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
left
his
good
armour
,
&
there
he
armed
himselfe
againe
with
them
,
being
holpen
by
the
princes
,
for
that
her
Damsells
,
with
the
great
feare
which
they
had
of
the
diuelish
Fauno
,
the
which
was
dead
,
durst
not
come
nigh
them
.
And
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
séeing
him
so
fauoured
and
holpen
by
the
hands
of
his
Ladie
and
mistresse
,
was
in
that
case
that
he
knew
not
whether
he
was
in
heauen
or
vppon
the
earth
,
and
being
in
this
glorie
,
readie
for
to
depart
out
of
the
solitarie
Iland
,
the
Historie
doth
leaue

WHen

betwéene
the

knights
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
other
fiftene
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
they
were
all
in
a
redinesse
,
and
the
field
whereas
the

should
be
fought
,
was
appointed
,
in
the
middest

both
the
Armies
,
nigh
vnto
the
Citie
,
in
place
whereas
those
of
the
mightie
pallace
might
verie
well
sée
and
beh●lde
all
that
passed
,
from
the
battilments
of
the
same
.
At
this
time
was
the
faire
princesse
Lindabrides
verie
sad
,
and
full
of
sorow
,
for
hat
she
could
not
beare
by
any
meanes
newes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
therewith
was
verie
de●irous
to
sée
the
battaile
that
was
appointed
that
day
,
〈◊〉
to
the
ende
to
behold
the
Emperour
Trepation
his
father
,
and
Rosicleer
,
his
brother
,
she
requested
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
to
carie
her
for
to
see
it
,
who
for
to
please
her
,
receiued
great
contentment
,
and
commaunded
the
triumphant
Chariot
of
Iuorie
,
to
be
made
in
a
readinesse
,
the
which
being
done
,
the
faire
princesse
mounted
into
it
,
&
in
her
companie
were
more
then
thirtie
damsels
,
all
verie
faire
and
richly
apparailed
,
and
amongst
them
was
the
princesse
Floralindia
,
spouse
vnto
the
prince
Meridian
,
&
the
wise
quéene
Iulia
,
and
other
quéenes
and
ladies
which
the
princes
Lindabrides
had
brought
in
her
companie
,
all
mounted
into
that
triumphant
Chariot
,
and
twelue
furious
gyants
,
with
their
great
and
stéelie
mases
in
their
hands
,
for
their
garde
and
keeping
,
who
plast
themselues
rounde
about
them
.
So
with
great
noyse
and
sound
of
trumpets
and
Musicke
,
twelue
horses
began
to
draw
forwardes
the
Chariot
,
and
caryed
it
nigh
vnto
the
place
,
whereas
the
battaile
should
be
made
,
hard
vppon
the
host
of
the
P●gans
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
were
backed
with
them
.
Then
straightwaies
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
the
better
for
to
see
the
battaile
,
commaunded
an
other
triumphant
Chariot
,
like
vnto
that
of
the
princesse
,
to
be
brought
,
and
therein
to
place
his
imperiall
seate
of
golde
,
with
all
the
seates
of
the
other
kinges
round
about
it
,
in
such
order
,
as
they
were
in
his
Tent
,
the
Chariot
was
drawen
with
foure
Elephants
verie
great
,
who
had
strength
enough
for
to
draw
a
tower
.
And
when
they
came
whereas
the
battaile
should
be
made
,
they
plast
it
hard
vnto
that
of
the
princesse
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
those
kings
his
vassailes
,
who
came
thether
a
horseback
,
alighted
from
them
,
and
mounted
into
the
Chariot
,
and
placed
themselues
euerie

.
The
Emperour
set

Empe●iall
〈◊〉
aboue

all
,
and
béeing
accompanied
with
so
many
kinges
,
euerie

,
and

,
and
〈◊〉
the
Emperour
commanded
twentie
thousand
Tartarlans
to
be

for
the
garde
of
the

.
This
when
all

,
it
was
high
noone
,
at
which
time
the
Emperour
Trebatio
with

and
of
the
rest
of
the
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
,
who
with
many
teares
did
commend
them
vnto
God
,
and
the
sorrowe
and
griefe
which
they
receiued
to
sée
them
departe
vnto
to
cruell
a
battaile
was
such
,
that
they
could
not
departe
from
them
,
neither
would
they
let
them
goe
,
till
such
time
as
the
Emperour
almost
by
force
went
out
of
the
great
hall
,
then
straightwaies
all
the
rest
followed
after
him
,
and
béeing
mounted
vpon
light

good
horses
,
with
twentie
thousand
Gréekes
for
to
kéepe
the
fielde
,
they
went
out
of
the
Citie
,
and
surelie
it
was
a
gallant
and
straunge
sight
to
behol●e
,
for
that
the
fiftéene
Knightes
went
by
themselues
somewhat
aparted
from
the
others
,
and
because
they
were
all
mightie
Princes
and
worthie
Knightes
,
they
were
all
armed
with
verie
strong
and
rich
armour
,
bordered
aboute
with
golde

,
likewise

all
of
cloth
of
Golde
verie
sumptuous
,
with
gallant
bunches
of
●eathecs
on
their

of
diuerse

.
The
worthie
Emperour
Trebatio
rode
in
the
middest

all
,
and
was
armed
in
redde
armour
,
these
which
the

,
the

muele
of
so

mettall
,
that
they
séemed
to
be
all
of
fine
Rubies
,
he
carried
no
crowne
vpon
his
head
,
for
that
hée
dyd
●●uer
accustome
the
same
in
battailes
,
saying
that
there
was
no
〈◊〉
of
a
Crowne
,
whereas
they
should
more
profite
the●selues
of
their

end

,
than
to

of
iuorie
,
which
hée
threw
at
his

which
became
him
▪
singular
well
,
and
gaue
testimonie
vnto
all
these
that
he
helde
him
who
hée
was
.
On
the
one
side
went
with
him
his
sonne
Rosicleer
,
then
after
him
▪
〈◊〉
all
the
other
Knightes
in
verie
good
order
,
and
for
that
they
were
all
verie
bigge
and
richlie
armed
,
the
Ladyes
had
inough
to
doe
to
beholde
them
,
but
most
especiallie
the
Empresse
Briana
,
the
excellent
Princesses
,
Oliuia
,
Lyndaraza
,
and
the
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
who
from
the
windowes
of
their
mightie
pallace
dyd
beholde
them
,
as
they
that
had
their
ioyes
in
that
companie
,
coulde
neuer
aparte
their
eies
from
them
,
and
with
greate
deuotion
they
prayed
vnto
almightie
God
for
to
saue
and
defende
them
from
the
handes
of
their
enimies
.
In
this
sorte
went
this
noble
Emperour
and
his
knights
into
the
fielde
,
euerie
one
of
them
with
his
Speare
in

,
accompanied
with
a
gallant
crewe
of
moste
worthie
knightes
,
which
was
a
goodlie
sight
to
beholde
:
but
yet
the
teares
trickled
downe
the
chéekes
of
that
high
and
worthie
Emperour
Trebatio
and
his
valyant
sonne
Rocleer
,
because
they

,
as
we●
for
that
hée

that
time
a

in
the
conflict
,
as
also
for
that

past
they
had
not
heard

newes
of

.
Likewise
all
the
rest
of
those
his

sayde
,
that
if

had
him
there
in
their
companie
,
they
woulde
not
feare
all
the
whole

In

euerie

thought
his

There

Don

,
and
Arcalus
,
who
according
vnto
the
great
strength
and
power
that
was
in
the
Giants
,
had
néede
of
no
small
courage
and
valour
for
to
counteruaile
with
them
.
And
of
trueth
you
may
be
lee●e
,
〈◊〉
before
that
the
battaile
was
〈◊〉
,
there
was
not
two
amongst
that
great
number
of
thousand
of
Pagans
,
that
was
in
the
whole
Campe
,
but
thought
surely
the
victorie
to
be
on
their
part
,
for
that
the
fifitene
Pagan
knights
,
next
vnto
Bramarande
was
the
whole
〈◊〉
and
strength
of
all
the
Pagan●
.
Being
all
in
a
readinesse
,
and
the
people
in
quiet
,
the
Iudges
commaunded
the
Trumpets
to
●ound
,
in
s●gne
and
token
of
battaile
:
and
all
these
knights
sette
spurres
vnto
their
light
horses
,
who
ranne
with
so
great
force
and
furie
,
that
all
the
earth
whereas
they
were
,
séemed
to
tremble
,
&
when
they
came
to
make
their
encounter
,
the
noyse
was
so
great
of
their
sheuered
speares
,
as
though
they
had
shot
of
great
ordinance
:
and
surely
in
many
dayes
before
,
in
that
countrie
was
there
not
seene
the
like
encounter
,
of
so
many
worthie
and
valiant
knights
,
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
made
his
encounter
against
that
valiant
Pagan
Rodaran
,
whose
encounter
was
such
,
that
they
sheuered
their
speares
in
small
péeces
,
and
passed
the
one
by
the
other
,
but
by
the
force
thereof
,
Rodaran
lost
his
stirrups
,
and
the
raynes
of
his
bridle
fell
out
of
his
hand
,
and
complained
very
much
of
that
encounter
.
The
like
dyd
the
two
most
valiant
Princes
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
making
their
encounters
with
their
two
strong
and
stout
aduersaries
,
Clauerindo
,
and
Oristedes
,
they
passed
all
foure
,
the
one
by
the
other
,
in
gallant
maner
,
sheuering
their
speares
into
small
péeces
,
but
no
vauntage
perceiued
of
the
one
part
nor
of
the
other
,
in
this
their
encounter
.
Then
the
sixe
sonnes
of
the
gran
Titheon
,
made
their
encounter
againste
those
sixe
valiant
knights
that
came
against
them
,
and
the
strength
was
so
great
which
they
vsed
in
their
encounters
,
that
if
their
armour
had
not
bene
verie
good
,
all
tw●lue
together
had
bene
thrust
through
and
through
,
but
by
reason
that
the
force
of
their
armour
was
a
de●ence
against
the
sharpnesse
of
theyr
speare
poynts
,
there
was
no
more
harme
done
,
but
the
one
and
the
other
with
their
horse
betwixt
their
leggs
foundred
backwards
to
the
ground
,
but
straight
wayes
they
recouered
againe
and
began
their
battaile
with
their
swords
.
The
like
dyd
the
stout
king
Florion
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
and
the
foure
princes
Bargandel
,
and
Liriamandra
,
Don
Siluerio
,
and
Rodamarte
,
who
made
their
encounter
against
their
aduersaries
,
in
such
sort
,
that
without
mouing
in
their
saddels
,
they
passed
the
one
by
the
other
,
with
a
gallant
demean●r
and
stout
courage
.
But
now
hearken
and
be
attendant
,
howe
that
the
gran
Campion
as
bigge
as
a
tower
vpon
his
Elephant
●ade
his
encounter
with
that
strong
and
mightie
knight
Resicleer
,
who
lyke
vnto
a
whirle
winde
with
all
the
furi●
of
his
mightie
horse
Rondarte
came
against
him
,
and
in
the
middest
of
his
course
made
so
strong
an
encounter
,
that
although
their
Speares
could
not
pearce
their
fine
armouys
,
yet
the
stout
Rosicleer
béeing
astonied
by
the
forc●
of
that
encounter
,
lost
the
raines
of
his
bridle
out
of
his
hande
,
and
if
hée
had
not
well
staied
himselfe
by
the
pommell
of
the
saddle
,
it
could
not
haue
béene
otherwise
,
but
of
force
hée
must
haue
fallen
vnto
the
ground
,
but
firming
and
staying
himselfe
verie
stronglie
,
hée
passed
forwardes
on
,
greatlie
tormented
therewith
,
but
this
gran
Campion
receiued
so
strong
an
encounter
of
Rosicleer
,
that
his
mightie
force
was
not
sufficient
for
to
holde
him
,
but
doubled
his
backe
in
such
sorte
,
that
hée
fell
ouer
the
crouper
of
his
Elephant
vnto
the
ground
.
If
the
fayre
Princesse
Oliuia
(
who
dyd
sée
and
beholde
all
that
passed
from
the
windowes
of
the
Pallace
)
receiued
anie
ioy
and
pleasure
at
that
gallant
and
stronge
encounter
,
I
reporte
●ée
vnto
your
iudgement
,
and
on
the
contrarie
,
the
griefe
and
anger
which
his
sonne
Bramaran●
susteined
,
to
sée
his
mightie
and
valyant
Father
by
the
encounter
of
one
alone
knight
to
bée
ouerthrowen
vnto
the
ground
,
and
hauing
no
patunce
in
himselfe
,
neyther
coulde
his
couragious
hear●
〈◊〉
him
to
bée
silent
,
but
in
a
rage
he
●urst
out
and
said
.
It
is
not
possibl●
;
but
that
the
Gods
(
béeing
〈◊〉
against
vs
and
our
great
strength
〈◊〉
ioyne
〈…〉
in
a
conclusion
,
and
she●
forth
〈◊〉

against

,
in
this
stout
and
valiant
knight
for

to
the
contrarie
,
ther●
is
no
humane
force
that
is
able
to
〈◊〉
the
strength
of
my
Father
B●ada●●●●
but
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
séeing
it
is
so
,
that
they
will
shewe
themselues
so
contrarie
against
vs
,
from
this
time
forwardes
I
doe
renounce
them
and
blaspheme
them
,
and
〈…〉
to

enimie
,
and
if
so
bée
that
this
knight
maye
fall
into

there
shall
be
no

in
his
greate
force
bée
it
either
humane
or
diuine
,
for
to
withdraw
me
to
giue
him
the
death
.
Then
the
Father
with
no
lesse
furie
and
brauenesse
than
his
sonne
arose
vp
from
the
ground
,
proclaiming
no
lesse
iniuries
against
their
false
Gods
,
for
that
in
such
sorte
they
shewed
themselues
so
contrarie
against
them
,
and
therewith
hée
drew
out
a
mightie
greate
and
heauie
fauchon
which
hée
hadde
,
and
with
a
hastie
pace
hée
went
against
Rosicleer
,
thinking
in
a
short
space
to
hew
him
to
péeces
with
his
variable
and
mortall
blowes
,
but
there
was
thrée
thinges
in
this
battaile
cleane
contrarie
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
hée
coulde
not
execute
his
furious
and
angrie
desire
:
the
one
,
the
great
lightnesse
that
Rosicleer
had
,
that
béeing
on
foote
his
Brother
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
no
aduauntage
on
him
,
so
that
it
was
a
great
meruaile
,
for
the
gran
Campion
to
fasten
a
blowe
vppon
him
in
anie
respect
,
the
other
was
the
finenesse
of
his
armour
,
which
was
made
by
the
wise
Artemidoro
of
so
great
valour
,
that
no
humane
force
,
nor
edge
of
anie
sword
was
sufficient
for
to
cut
or
buckle
them
,
the
third
was
the
great
dexteritie
and
strength
wherewith
Rosicleer
did
strike
him
,
and
so
thicke
,
that
he
did
not
let
him
rest
one
minute
of
an
houre
,
neyther
gaue
him
anie
aduauntage
for
to
profit
himselfe
of
his
great
strength
,
and
although
that
Rosicleer
had
these
thrée
things
on
his
parte
for
to
make
his
defence
against
his
aduersarie
,
yet
could
hée
not
with
so
great
●ase
get
of
him
the
victorie
,
for
that
Bradaman
after
that
hée
had
the
battaile
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
dyd
alwayes
after
arme
himselfe
with
verie
strong
and
inchaunted
armour
,
and
it
was
so
excéeding
good
,
that
the
good
swoorde
of
the
Quéene
Iulia
was
not
able
by
anie
meanes
to
cut
it
,
and
besides
this
,
his
blowes
were
so
strong
and
heauie
,
that
when
so
euer
he
chaunced
to
strike
a
full
blowe
vppon
him
,
hée
made
him
to
stoupe
with
his
knées
and
handes
vnto
the
ground
,
and
hée
had
as
much
care
for
to
cléere
himselfe
from
his
terrible
blowes
,
as
he
had
for
to
strike
him
,
so
that
the
battaile
betwéene
them
was
very
well
fought
and
in
great
doubt
,
and
put
great
admiration
in
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
&
in
all
them
that
dyd
behold
them
.
In
all
this
time
dyd
the
other
knights
make
their
combat
verie
strongly
,
some
a
foote
and
some
a
horsebacke
,
the
which
was
a
thing
worthie
to
behold
,
to
sée
what
terrible
,
blowes
were
stroken
,
the
breaking
of
shieldes
,
c●tting
of
harnesse
,
vnmailing
of
goriets
,
making
the
fire
to
flye
out
of
their
stéely
healmes
and
harnesse
,
of
so
great
aboundance
,
that
it
was
strange
to
beholde
:
so
that
the
battaile
was
so
strong
and
well
foughten
of
euery
part
,
that
one
whole
houre
was
passed
,
and
there
was
no
aduauntage
knowen
nor
séene
of
any
part
,
amongst
them
,
and
the
great
valiantnesse
of
either
of
them
was
such
,
that
they
did
deserue
particulerlie
their
worthinesse
to
be
declared
,
but
by
reason
that
there
were
so
many
together
,
and
mingled
the
one
with
the
other
,
they
could
not
deser●e
the
worthinesse
that
they
did
.
Amongst
them
all
their
blowes
were
terrible
,
but
in
especiall
those
valiant
Princes
Meridian
,
and
Clauerindo
,
who
with
so
great
furie
did
strike
their
blowes
,
that
many
times
they
were
both
astonied
,
and
either
of
them
were
greatly
amazed
at
the
great
strength
of
his
aduersary
,
and
the
prince
Meridian
said
,
that
the
knight
in
his
blowes
resembled
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Likewise
those
stout
and
valiant
knights
Brandimardo
and
Oristedes
,
with
no
lesse
furie
and
redoubled
blowes
,
did
charge
their
aduersaries
,
and
put
great
admiration
in
all
them
that
did
beholde
the
battaile
,
who
saide
,
that
they
twaine
were
two
of
the
stoutest
knights
that
were
in
all
the
world
.
It
was
no
lesse
worthie
of
beholding
the
great
contencion
that
was
betwixt
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
stout
king
of
Arabia
Rodaran
,
whose
blowes
were
of
so
great
force
,
that
they
wer
heard
a
great
way
of
,
and
being
an
houre
past
since
the
battaile
began
,
the
strong
Pagan
was
greatly
amazed
at
the
great
force
and
strength
of
the
Emperour
,
and
sayd
within
himselfe
,
that
it
was
impossible
for
him
to
get
any
honour
in
that
cruell
battaile
,
for
that
continuallie
the
force
and
lightnesse
of
his
aduersarie
encreased
,
and
a
thing
to
be
wondered
at
,
was
his
valiant
courage
,
of
whome
naturally
his
sonnes
had
receiued
the
like
.
And
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
all
those
kings
which
were
with
him
,
that
dyd
beholde
him
,
and
knew
him
,
being
greatly
amazed
,
said
,
that
he
was
one
of
the
most
valiantest
knights
in
all
the
whole
world
,
and
one
that
was
most
fiercest
in
battaile
.
Then
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
sayde
,
My
flesh
and
my
bones
tr●●ble
,
when
I
doe
thinke
of
that
I
shall
sée
this
Emperour
doe
,
in
the
field
against
vs
,
he
being
in
the
middest
betweene
both
his
sonnes
,
and
it
séemeth
vnto
mée
,
that
there
is
no
securitie
,
whereby
from
the
furie
of
their
armes
,
we
cannot
make
any
defence
:
and
this
good
knightes
that
we
haue
on
our
part
,
behold
how
many
there
is
to
the
contrarie
,
who
doeth
make
resistance
and
detaine
them
,
till
the
other
doth
destroy
▪
these
miserable
people
.
At
which
words
all
those
mightie
kings
that
were
in
the
triumphant
Chariot
,
laughed
verie
much
,
and
imputed
them
vnto
the
great
feare
and
little
force
the
which
the
king
had
,
for
that
he
was
olde
.
But
yet
time
happened
afterward
,
that
they
did
féele
and
know
that
the
words
which
he
spake
,
procéeded
more
of
wisedome
and
vnderstanding
,
then
of
feare
.
Likewise
,
it
was
a
thing
worthie
to
be
séene
,
the
furious
and
well
foughten
battaile
,
that
was
betwixt
the
sonnes
of
the
Gran
Thiteon
,
and
the
sixe
knights
their
aduersaries
,
for
according
as
they
were
all
strong
and
valiant
,
it
were
enough
to
doe
in
this
Chapter
,
onely
to
declare
of
their
valiantnesse
,
for
the
force
of
the
Gyants
was
wonderfull
,
and
they
stroke
their
blowes
with
so
great
furie
,
that
either
of
them
was
sufficient
to
cleaue
an
armed
knight
downe
to
to
the
wast
,
but
yet
they
contended
with
such
knights
who
knew
verie
well
how
to
resist
their
great
strengthes
,
and
made
them
to
sweate
droppes
of
bloud
,
for
that
they
hadde
amongst
them
that
mightie
and
strong
knight
Brandizel
,
who
by
reason
that
he
was
verie
bigge
of
bodie
and
of
great
force
,
and
hot
in
courage
,
brought
his
aduersarie
in
a
great
perplexitie
,
and
all
his
armour
broken
and
vnbuckled
,
although
they
were
a
finger
thicke
,
and
this
was
the
eldest
of
the
sixe
bretheren
,
with
whome
he
combatted
,
and
the
most
valiantest
and
strongest
:
on
the
other
side
did
combat
,
those
two
valiant
warriors
the
king
Sacridoro
,
and
the
worthie
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
behaued
themselues
in
such
sorte
in
their
battaile
,
that
they
gaue
them
verie
well
to
vnderstand
,
who
they
were
.
Likewise
,
with
no
lesse
couragious
force
,
those
two
most
valiant
knights
,
Don
Claros
,
and
Arcalus
,
did
oppresse
with
their
mightie
blowes
,
the
two
Giants
their
aduersaries
,
in
such
sort
,
that
in
the
space
of
one
houre
,
they
brought
them
in
that
case
,
that
the
victorie
appeared
to
be
theirs
,
and
for
that
those
two
knights
were
not
knowne
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
there
at
,
for
their
highe
and
strange
bountie
.
The
good
knight
Flamides
,
did
make
battaile
,
with
the
younger
brother
of
the
sixe
Giants
,
and
although
the
battaile
betwixt
them
was
well
foughten
and
verie
perilons
,
yet
for
all
that
by
reason
that
his
armour
was
excelent
good
,
and
he
verie
light
and
stoute
,
he
had
the
vauntage
of
his
aduersarie
.
Also
the
valiant
king
Florion
,
and
the
king
of
Media
,
made
their
battaile
with
mightie
&
furious
blowes
,
but
before
that
one
houre
was
past
of
the
battaile
,
it
was
well
knowen
that
the
king
Florion
,
was
the
valianter
of
both
.
At
this
time
the
foure
princes
had
so
entreated
their
aduersaries
,
that
they
were
verie
wearie
and
faint
,
and
they
likewise
were
well
moyled
,
for
that
they
had
receiued
great
and
mightie
blowes
of
them
,
for
they
were
stronge
,
stoute
,
and
valiant
.
Thus
in
this
sort
was
this
cruel
battaile
betwixt
them
all
the
best
fought
that
euer
was
séene
,
betwixt
so
manie
knights
,
for
that
all
those
that
dyd
behold
them
,
hadde
their
eares
deafened
,
with
the
continuall
sounde
of
the
hard
and
thicke
blowes
,
that
were
stroke
amongst
them
,
and
there
could
not
have
bene
a
greater
noyse
,
if
ther●
hadde
bene
a
hundreth
Smithes
together
working
and
striking
vppon
their
a●●ells
.
Likewise
in
this
time
it
was
a
meruailous
thing
to
sée
and
beholde
Rosicleer
,
with
Bradaman
,
with
although
hée
lacked
but
one
finger
bredth
of
eight
foote
high
,
which
was
a
gallant
stature
,
yet
before
the
Gran
Camp●on
,
he
seemed
nothing
,
for
that
he
was
almost
fiftene
foote
high
,
neuerthelesse
the
blowes
of
the
one
and
of
the
other
was
equall
in
furiousnesse
,
for
that
Rosicleer
,
did
so
charge
with
his
furious
blowes
Bradaman
,
that
although
he
could
not
cut
his
armour
,
yet
dyd
he
all
to
torment
and
bruse
his
flesh
and
bones
,
and
with
more
lightnesse
then
was
comprehended
in
him
,
he
made
him
to
besturre
himselfe
and
turne
about
on
the
one
side
and
on
the
other
:
the
like
dyd
Bradaman
,
vnto
him
,
for
although
that
Rosicleer
,
dyd
saue
and
defend
himselfe
from
the
most
parte
of
his
blowes
,
by
his
great
nimblenesse
and
lightnesse
,
yet
for
all
that
,
when
he
fastened
a
blow
vpon
him
,
he
made
him
to
stoope
both
with
knées
and
hands
to
the
grounde
:
and
the
armour
of
Rosicleer
,
dyd
make
such
a
sound
,
as
though
it
had
bene
a
bell
,
and
out
of
both
their
armours
there
flewe
so
great
quantitie
of
sparks
of
fier
,
as
though
they
should
be
burned
in
them
.
In
this
sorte
the
battaile
betwixt
them
continued
more
then
two
houres
,
in
which
time
some
of
those
Ladies
that
dyd
behold
them
from
the
mightie
pallace
of
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
were
not
much
at
quiet
and
ease
at
the●●
hearts
,
for
that
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
séeing
her
spouse
and
loyall
louer
to
combat
so
terriblie
with
that
furious
Pagan
and
monster
,
her
face
began
to
be
wan
and
pale
,
and
the
bloud
waxed
colde
within
her
bodie
,
so
that
fell
downe
in
a
sound
amongst
the
Ladies
:
in
the
like
perplexitie
was
the
royall
Empresse
Briana
,
for
her
husband
and
sonne
,
and
the
faire
Princes
Lindaraza
,
for
her
louing
and
faithfull
spouse
Clauerindo
,
and
the
like
hadde
that
faire
Ladies
Arquirosa
,
for
Don
Siluerio
.
Furthermore
you
shall
vnderstand
,
that
after
two
houres
was
passed
from
the
firste
béeginning
of
the
battaile
,
and
that
there
was
not
one
of
those
worthie
champions
that
hadde
anie
will
or
desire
(
as
it
séemed
)
to
rest
themselues
,
then
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
,
béeing
very
desirous
to
make
a
final
ende
&
conclusion
of
his
battaile
,
with
the
vttermost
of
all
his
force
,
he
raysed
himselfe
in
his
styrrups
,
with
his
sword
in
both
his
hands
,
&
therewith
stroke
so
strong
and
terrible
a
blow
vpon
the
healme
of
the
stout
pagan
Rodaran
,
the
which
by
reason
that
it
was
somewhat
crazed
,
with
that
battaile
,
as
also
with
other
battailes
before
:
he
altogether
vnbuckled
from
his
head
,
and
breaking
his
skull
(
by
the
force
thereof
all
to
péeces
)
he
ouerthrew
him
from
his
horse
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
sayd
,
Now
shal
it
be
séene
if
thou
canst
deliuer
thy selfe
from
my
handes
,
and
what
can
profit
thée
,
the
subteltie
&
desceit
of
the
quéene
of
Carmania
.
The
which
being
concluded
he
withdrew
him selfe
a
part
,
and
did
behold
the
battaile
of
the
other
knights
,
whereat
all
that
were
on
his
part
receiued
great
pleasure
and
contentment
,
but
in
especiall
,
the
Empres
Briana
,
who
knew
not
where
she
was
,
with
the
great
ioye
and
pleasure
she
receiued
.
But
the
sorow
and
griefe
of
the
Pagans
was
very
great
,
but
in
especial
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
who
had
Rodaran
in
great
estimation
,
for
that
he
was
one
of
the
strongest
knights
that
was
in
all
the
whole
Paganisme
,
as
of
trueth
he
was
so
.
But
yet
the
griefe
of
his
heart
did
not
herein
ende
,
for
that
the
worthie
prince
Brandizel
,
at
that
instant
ouerthrew
at
his
féete
the
Gyant
with
whome
hée
had
his
battaile
,
who
was
the
eldest
of
the
sixe
brethren
,
wherewith
he
vnlased
his
healme
and
cut
of
his
head
.
And
it
was
not
long
after
when
that
the
two
valiant
brethren
,
Don
Claros
,
and
Arcalus
,
did
the
lyke
with
their
aduersaries
,
which
were
the
second
and
third
brothers
,
and
were
the
most
fiercest
and
strongest
of
them
all
,
and
they
withdrew
themselues
apart
,
and
dyd
behold
the
battaile
of
them
that
remained
.
Then
straight
wayes
,
Bargandel
,
dyd
ouercome
the
valiant
King
of
Taprobana
▪
and
Liriamandro
,
made
for
to
yelde
the
Prince
of
Cambray
,
and
within
a
little
while
Don
Siluerio
,
dyd
cut
of
the
head
of
the
stoute
king
of
the
Gandat●s
,
and
not
long
after
the
king
Sacridoro
,
and
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
ouerthrew
theyr
aduersaries
to
the
earth
,
who
were
the
fourth
and
fift
bretheren
,
of
the
Gyaunts
who
as
the
other
before
did
cut
off
their
handes
,
of
all
the
which
the
Emperour
Alycandro
receiued
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
and
the
like
did
all
the
Pagans
,
and
they
repented
them
verie
much
in
making
of
that
challenge
.
Then
Rodamarte
tooke
the
Prince
of
Aegypt
prisoner
,
for
being
verie
wearie
and
féeble
,
of
his
owne
good
will
he
did
yéeld
himself
to
be
prisoner
,
so
likewise
the
valiant
knight
Flamides
dyd
force
so
much
vpon
the
youngest
brother
the
Gyant
,
that
in
the
end
he
was
slaine
as
the
rest
,
so
that
all
the
generation
of
the
gran
Thiteon
was
slaine
in
that
bat●aile
.
It
was
not
long
after
that
the
king
Florion
ouerthrew
the
king
of
Media
at
his
féete
and
pulled
off
his
healme
,
helping
him
to
arise
from
the
grounde
,
he
tooke
him
prisoner
,
and
put
themselues
on
the
one
side
,
and
dyd
beholde
the
battaile
of
the
other
thrée
that
remained
,
the
which
at
that
time
were
so
entangled
and
furious
,
that
all
those
that
dyd
beholde
them
were
put
in
great
admiration
,
meruailing
greatlie
how
they
could
suffer
so
great
&
long
trauaile
,
and
make
anie
defence
from
so
terrible
and
cruell
blowes
which
were
giuen
of
all
partes
.
Those
which
remained
were
those
precious
and
valiant
knights
Meridian
and
Claueryndo
,
a●d
the
mightie
Troian
and
Brandimardo
,
who
in
force
and
de●teritie
were
so
equall
,
that
almost
there
was
not
anie
one
that
could
know
anie
aduauntage
to
bée
of
either
parte
,
and
being
nowe
more
than
three
houres
since
they
first
beganne
the
battaile
,
and
both
partes
agreeing
therevnto
,
they
ceased
for
to
take
breath
,
and
to
ease
themselues
,
in
the
which
time
they
dyd
beholde
the
great
contention
that
was
betwixt
that
valiant
and
worthie
knight
Rosicleer
,
and
the
stout
Pagan
Bradaman
,
the
which
was
condigne
and
worthie
to
be
séene
,
for
that
without
al
order
and
measure
they
stroke
their
blowes
,
with
so
great
force
,
that
all
the
fields
and
the
mightie
Citie
rong
with
the
great
noise
of
their
battaile
.
All
this
time
did
the
faire
and
precious
Princesse
Lyndabrides
from
her
triumphant
Chariot
beholde
Rosicleer
and
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
for
that
both
of
them
did
resemble
verie
much
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
shée
reioyced
greatlie
to
sée
them
,
although
another
waie
her
heart
was
verie
sadde
and
sorrowfull
;
for
that
she
did
not
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
amongst
them
,
and
shée
imagined
within
her selfe
that
hée
should
be
in
Trapisond
with
the
princesse
Claridiana
(
which
went
vnto
her
verie
heart
,
)
and
other
waies
she
did
argué
within
her selfe
that
hée
should
not
bée
in
Trapisond
,
for
if
he
should
bée
there
,
it
were
not
possible
but
that
hée
shoulde
vnderstand
the
great
necessitie
that
his
Father
had
of
him
,
and
hauing
knowledge
thereof
,
there
is
no
estate
that
should
cause
him
to
bée
absent
so
long
,
but
that
hée
would
haue
come
thether
for
to
haue
holpen
him
.
Thus
hauing
these
and
many
other
such
like
thoughtes
and
cogitations
in
her
minde
caused
onelie
by
loue
,
shée
did
beholde
the
battaile
,
the
which
at
this
time
seemed
to
bée
more
kindled
and
better
fought
than
at
the
beginning
,
and
gaue
signe
and
token
that
as
that
night
the
victorie
was
doubtfull
,
for
that
it
was
but
almost
noone
when
the
battaile
began
,
and
now
it
was
almost
night
,
at
which
time
there
was
more
doubt
of
the
victorie
than
at
the
beginning
,
and
all
waxed
wearie
to
behold
them
,
and
yet
in
them
appeared
not
anie
manner
shew
of
trauaile
or
wearinesse
,
although
all
the
daie
before
they
did
no
other
thing
but
laie
loade
the
one
vppon
the
other
,
but
when
that
Rosicleer
sawe
that
it
drew
towards
night
,
hée
was
so
greatlie
ashamed
in
that
hée
could
not
ouercome
his
enimie
,
that
a
new
he
beganne
to
saie
vppon
him
with
all
his
force
and
strength
,
but
Bradaman
was
of
so
great
strength
,
and
stroke
his
blowes
so
terrible
,
that
all
his
care
and
thought
was
in
vaine
,
and
brought
him
many
times
vnto
the
point
for
to
loose
the
victorie
,
yet
at
the
last
,
hauing
thrée
times
rested
themselues
,
the
gran
Campion
with
verie
wearinesse
withdrewe
himselfe
aparte
,
and
lifting
vp
the
●eauer
of
his
healme
,
hée
requested
Rosicleer
that
the
battaile
might
remaine
as
it
did
till
the
next
daie
,
for
that
it
was
late
,
and
coulde
not
bée
concluded
except
it
were
in
the
night
,
who
for
that
hée
was
no
lesse
wearie
and
out
of
breath
than
hée
,
dyd
lykewise
withdrawe
himselfe
backe
,
and
sayde
that
it
should
be
as
hée
woulde
haue
it
,
so
shal
betwixt
them
the
battailè
was
separated
:
At
this
〈◊〉
and
Oristedes
,
béeing
retourned
a●newe-vnto
their
battaile
waxed
faint
and
wearie
,
by
reason
that
all
the
after
noone
they
did
not
anie
other
thing
but
giue
and
〈◊〉
great
number
of
terrible
and
cruell
blowes
,
the
appr●●●ing
of
the
night
dyd
nothing
grieue
them
,
and
when
they
sawe
the
battaile
betwixt
Rosicleer
and
Bradaman
to
be
separated
,
they
straight
waies
withdrewe
themselues
backe
,
and
lifting
vp
the
beauers
of
their
healmes
,
they
requested
their
aduersaries
that
the
battaile
might
cease
betwixt
them
for
that
daie
,
who
were
so
outragious
and
angrie
because
they
could
not
ouercome
them
,
that
they
would
not
depart
from
thence
vntill
such
time
as
the
battaile
were
concluded
,
but
they
seeing
that
it
was
night
,
and
howe
that
they
were
verie
sore
brused
and
wearie
,
they
coulde
doe
no
lesse
but
withdrawe
themselues
,
and
lifted
vp
their
beauers
to
receiue
aire
,
so
that
the
battell
was
wholy
separated
betwixt
them
.
Then
straight
waies
there
was
made
a
great
noise
of
instrumentes
,
that
all
the
whole
fieldes
were
filled
with
the
sound
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
one
coulde
not
heare
another
.
Then
the
Emperour
Trebatio
being
accompanied
with
those
noble
knightes
of
his
parte
,
went
to
speake
vnto
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
offering
vnto
〈◊〉
his
Citie
and
mightie
pallace
for
her
lodging
,
for
all
the
time
that
she
shoulde
remaine
in
Grecia
,
and
shée
with
no
lesse
good
will
than
if
it
had
béene
the
Emperour
Alycandro
gaue
him
intertainment
,
and
surrendered
great
thankes
for
his
large
proffer
vnto
her
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alycandro
béeing
accompanied
with
all
those
mightie
kings
and
vassals
,
descended
from
his
triumphant
Chariot
,
and
came
and
talked
with
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
his
knightes
,
and
the
one
receiued
the
other
with
such
curtesie
as
was
requisite
betwéen
so
high
estates
▪
Then
after
a
while
that
they
had
talked
together
verie
friendlie
,
the
Emperour
Alycandro
did
giue
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
great
thankes
,
for
the
good
intertainment
which
he
gaue
vnto
his
daughter
for
the
time
that
she
was
in
his
Court
.
It
was
then
verie
late
,
so
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
all
his
knightes
did
take
their
leaue
of
him
,
offering
their
Citie
at
their
commandement
,
and
so
returned
,
whereas
they
were
receiued
of
all
those
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
,
with
that
ioy
and
pleasure
as
reason
required
for
to
sée
them
returne
safe
and
sound
from
so
terrible
a
battaile
as
they
had
maintained
all
that
after
noone
before
,
and
euerie
one
receiued
the
praise
as
his
valyant
déedes
deserued
:
and
to
the
contrarie
,
the
Pagans
remained
verie
sadde
,
sorrowfull
,
and
angrie
,
for
the
good
knights
that
were
slaine
on
their
partes
,
and
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
were
greatlie
amazed
,
in
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
on
his
part
so
worthie
and
valiant
knightes
,
and
praised
in
especiall
Rosicleer
,
for
that
hée
indured
and
maintained
battaile
so
long
with
the
gran
Campion
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alycandro
commanded
straight
waies
,
that
the
dead
bodies
of
all
them
that
were
slaine
in
that
challenge
shoulde
bee
burnt
,
and
the
dust
of
them
to
bee
put
in
vesselles
of
golde
,
and
so
carried
into
their
owne
Countries
.
In
this
sort
they
passed
awaie
that
night
,
and
other
two
daies
,
wherein
was
done
nothing
neither
of
the
one
parte
nor
of
the
other
,
till
the
third
daie
,
in
the
which
happened
all
that
which
shall
bée
declared
▪
vnto
you
in
the
next
Chapter
following
.
How
the
proude
Pagan
Bramarant
beeing
angrie
at
the
wordes
which
were
spoken
by
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
departed
out
of
the
campe
,
and
sent
to
call
them
for
to
combat
with
them
,
and
what
happened
besides
.
Chapter
.
31.
THE
proude
and
insolent
heart
of
Bramarant
coulde
not
suffer
nor
dissemble
the
anger
which
he
receiued
at
the
wordes
spoken
by
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
at
such
time
as
was
concluded
the
battaile
of
the
challenge
past
,
but
as
one
that
was
verie
desirous
to
be
reuenged
for
the
same
,
he
determined
in
great
secret
to
depart
out
of
the
campe
,
and
to
send
and
call
them
into
a
secret
place
,
whereas
he
might
make
battaile
with
them
,
and
none
to
be
present
for
so
parte
or
separate
them
,
and
as
he
determined
,
so
he
put
it
in
vre
,
for
that
in
a
morning
before
the
breake
of
daie
,
at
such
time
as
the
people
of
all
the
whole
campe
were
most
at
rest
,
in
as
secrete
wise
as
was
possible
,
beeing
armed
with
his
strong
armour
,
and
mounted
vpon
his
great
horse
,
he
departed
out
of
the
campe
with
alonelie
one
man
that
he
carried
with
him
,
and
being
verie
desirous
to
finde
a
secret
place
to
accomplish
his
desire
,
he
neuer
rested
till
hee
came
vnto
the
skirt
of
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
whereas
he
finding
it
a
place
fit
for
his
purpose
to
accomplish
his
desire
,
staied
,
and
from
thence
sent
his
man
that
he
brought
with
him
,
vnto
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
for
to
giue
them
to
vnderstand
how
that
he
did
tarrie
there
for
them
,
who
when
he
came
backe
againe
vnto
the
campe
,
went
straight
vnto
the
tent
of
the
Prince
,
whereas
he
found
them
both
together
,
for
that
they
were
great
friends
after
such
time
as
they
battailed
together
the
one
with
the
other
,
and
there
hee
declared
vnto
them
the
message
that
he
brought
from
Bramarant
,
who
when
they
heard
it
,
were
of
so
valiaunt
a
courage
,
that
they
were
nothing
troubled
thereat
,
but
rather
it
séemed
to
be
a
great
shame
vnto
them
to
goe
together
,
beeing
their
aduersarie
but
one
alone
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
grew
a
contention
who
should
go
first
,
but
in
the
end
for
that
they
could
not
conclude
that
point
,
and
neither
of
them
would
be
the
last
,
it
fell
out
that
they
must
goe
together
,
and
according
vnto
the
great
force
and
strength
of
that
worthie
Pagan
their
aduersarie
that
did
abide
their
comming
,
afterwarde
it
did
not
repent
them
of
their
so
going
.
Thus
these
two
friendes
being
armed
with
their
rich
and
strong
armour
,
without
giuing
anie
knowledge
vnto
the
Emperour
or
anie
other
person
whether
they
went
,
departed
out
of
the
campe
,
and
béeing
guided
by
the
man
who
brought
the
message
,
in
a
short
time
came
vnto
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
and
not
hauing
trauailed
long
therein
,
they
found
Bramarant
a
foote
from
his
horse
,
lying
along
vnder
the
shadowe
of
certaine
trées
a
sléepe
,
for
that
the
Sunne
was
verie
hot
,
and
he
laide
his
head
vppon
his
healme
,
and
slept
so
soundlie
,
that
although
they
came
vnto
him
making
a
great
noise
,
yet
could
he
not
awake
,
vntill
such
time
as
Brandimardo
with
his
Speare
stroke
him
a
little
blowe
vppon
the
breast
,
wherewith
this
mightie
Pagan
awaked
,
and
séeing
his
aduersaries
before
him
,
as
one
amazed
arose
vp
,
and
put
his
helme
vpon
his
head
,
and
with
a
trice
leapt
vpon
his
horse
whom
he
had
there
at
hand
tied
vnto
a
tree
,
and
tooke
his
Speare
in
his
hand
.
Meridian
séeing
him
in
that
case
,
sayde
:
Bramarant
,
what
is
it
that
you
would
haue
with
vs
,
wée
are
now
come
hether
at
thy
challenge
?
That
which
I
will
haue
,
answered
hee
with
greate
pride
,
is
to
make
you
both
vnderstand
together
,
that
my
force
is
much
more
than
the
force
of
all
the
knightes
of
Grecia
,
and
to
reuenge
the
wordes
that
you
sayde
vnto
mée
before
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
and
those
that
were
with
him
.
Unto
proude
and
arrogant
persons
,
answered
Meridian
,
a
little
occasion
is
sufficient
for
to
cause
contention
and
strife
,
of
little
effect
or
profite
,
and
lesse
necessarie
or
néedfull
,
but
seeing
that
it
is
so
,
that
thou
hast
so
good
a
will
for
to
haue
battaile
with
vs
,
let
vs
straight
waies
come
together
,
and
I
hope
in
the
high
Gods
that
either
of
vs
both
will
giue
thée
inough
to
vnderstande
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
,
with
his
Speare
in
a
readinesse
in
his
hande
,
he
addressed
himselfe
vnto
the
course
,
and
desired
Brandimardo
that
hée
shoulde
not
aide
nor
helpe
him
,
for
anie
thing
whatsoeuer
that
hée
shoulde
sée
passe
in
the
battaile
.
Thus
Bramarant
béeing
in
a
readinesse
,
they
both
set
spurs
vnto
their
horses
,
and
made
their
encounter
together
with
great
furie
,
and
for
that
they
were
both
of
verie
greate
force
and
strength
▪
they
shéeuered
their
Speares
all
to
péeces
,
and
without
doing
anie
more
harme
,
passed
the
one
by
the
other
with
a
gallant
demeanour
,
and
vpright
in
their
saddles
,
but
they
had
not
gone
forwardes
many
paces
,
when
that
they
tourned
about
their
horses
,
with
their
swordes
readie
drawen
in
their
handes
,
and
ioyning
together
in
such
sorte
that
they
might
strike
the
one
the
other
,
they
stroke
at
each
other
such
cruel
blowes
,
that
they
cloue
their
shields
in
péeces
,
and
the
pointes
of
their
swords
descended
downe
vpon
their
healmes
with
so
greate
●urie
,
that
greate
abundaunce
of
fire
flew
out
of
either
of
them
,
then
they
stroke
each
other
another
blowe
,
with
so
great
furie
,
that
they
declined
their
hades
downe
vnto
their
breastes
,
and
then
Bramarant
did
verie
well
féele
that
the
force
and
strength
of
Meridian
was
verie
much
,
and
hée
likewise
on
the
other
side
gaue
him
to
vnderstand
that
his
blowes
were
wonderfull
,
and
that
it
was
requisite
with
greate
care
to
defende
himselfe
from
them
,
for
the
which
Meridian
with
a
greater
courage
dyd
laie
vppon
and
charge
his
aduersarie
,
and
with
all
lightnesse
possible
did
cleere
himselfe
from
his
blowes
.
In
this
sorte
they
executed
their
battaile
more
than
halfe
an
houre
,
making
so
greate
a
noise
,
that
three
mites
compasse
in
that
wildernesse
the
sound
of
〈◊〉
great
blowes
were
hedroe
.
Thus
they
continued
for
the
space
of
more
than
three
quarters
of
an
houre
in
their
battaile
,
without
anie
point
of
aduauntage
betwéene
them
.
Then
Meridian
with
both
his
handes
stroke
such
a
blowe
vppon
the
healm●
of
Bramarant
,
that
hée
tooke
his
remembraunce
from
him
,
and
without
anie
féeling
his
horse
carryed
him
round
about
the
fielde
.
But
this
mightie
Pagan
straight
waies
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
with
greate
furie
setting
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
hée
retourned
vpon
Meridian
,
and
with
an
infernall
furie
stroke
so
terrible
a
blowe
vppon
the
healme
of
that
worthie
and
valiant
Prince
,
that
if
it
had
not
béene
so
good
as
it
was
,
hee
had
clouen
him
downe
vnto
the
waste
,
but
yet
for
all
that
,
hée
made
the
bloud
to
gush
out
both
at
his
eyes
and
nose
in
great
abundance
,
and
depriued
him
of
all
vnderstanding
,
so
that
his
horse
carryed
him
about
the
field
as
though
he
had
bene
dead
,
and
hauing
no
power
to
make
resistance
against
his
vnbrideled
wrath
,
he
went
after
him
with
great
villanie
,
for
to
strike
him
another
blowe
before
that
he
should
come
vnto
himselfe
,
the
which
being
perceiued
by
that
stout
knight
Brandimardo
,
with
great
furie
he
set
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
and
before
that
Bramarant
had
space
for
to
strike
Meridian
,
hée
ouertooke
him
,
and
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
with
his
sworde
in
both
his
handes
vpon
the
right
shoulder
,
that
he
had
ouerthrowne
him
vnto
the
ground
,
if
that
he
had
not
embraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
.
Then
the
furious
Pagan
séeing
himselfe
so
intreated
,
straight
waies
setled
himselfe
in
his
saddle
,
and
returned
and
stroke
such
a
blowe
at
Brandimardo
vpon
his
healme
,
that
he
thought
verilie
his
téeth
had
bene
all
broken
in
his
head
with
beating
one
agaynst
another
,
his
head
was
so
ouerladen
,
and
almost
from
himself
the
raines
of
his
bridle
fell
out
of
his
hand
,
&
his
horse
ran
awaie
with
him
,
at
which
time
the
valiant
Prince
Meridian
was
come
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
was
verie
sorrie
for
that
Brandimardo
was
come
for
to
helpe
him
,
but
with
verie
great
wrath
and
angrie
courage
he
returned
vpon
Bramarant
,
his
aduersarie
did
the
like
,
as
also
Brandimardo
,
so
that
betwéene
thrée
the
battaile
was
so
well
fought
,
that
it
was
a
strange
thing
to
behold
.
But
now
let
vs
leaue
them
for
to
tell
what
happened
after
this
.
You
shall
vnderstand
that
by
and
by
after
that
these
thrée
valiant
knights
were
departed
out
of
the
campe
,
by
many
they
were
found
lacking
,
yet
there
was
not
one
that
knew
wherefore
they
went
,
neither
did
they
imagine
that
betwixt
them
there
should
bée
anie
defiance
,
so
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
all
the
rest
were
without
anie
care
or
suspition
of
that
matter
,
but
thought
verilie
that
they
had
ben
gone
all
thrée
vpon
some
aduenture
which
was
offered
vnto
them
in
that
Countrie
.
Likewise
the
great
valour
that
was
in
all
the
thrée
,
did
assure
them
to
be
without
anie
care
of
whatsoeuer
peril
might
happen
vnto
them
,
but
that
man
whome
Bramarant
carried
with
him
,
fearing
the
great
perill
that
might
come
vnto
his
Lord
,
for
that
he
was
assaulted
with
so
strong
and
valiant
knightes
,
straight
waies
after
that
he
sawe
the
battaile
begunne
,
retourned
vnto
the
campe
,
and
secretlie
declared
vnto
the
gran
Campion
all
that
passed
,
who
straight
waies
without
anie
staying
armed
himselfe
with
his
strong
armour
,
and
mounting
vppon
a
mightie
Elephant
departed
out
from
the
armie
,
and
gaue
none
to
vnderstand
whether
he
went
,
but
all
men
thought
that
he
went
to
recreate
himselfe
in
the
Countrie
,
as
the
others
were
gone
.
Then
taking
his
waie
towards
the
wildernesse
,
by
reason
of
the
great
pace
of
the
Elephant
,
in
a
short
space
he
came
thether
,
but
yet
two
miles
good
before
he
came
vnto
the
place
of
their
combat
,
he
heard
the
great
noise
the
which
they
made
with
their
terrible
blowes
,
which
gaue
such
a
sound
through
the
woodes
and
valleies
,
as
though
a
companie
of
péeces
of
Ordinance
had
bene
shot
off
,
and
following
the
sound
,
by
aime
he
came
vnto
the
place
,
hée
was
not
as
yet
come
vnto
the
place
of
the
battaile
by
a
good
stones
cast
,
when
that
he
saw
comming
towards
him
on
the
one
side
in
great
hast
a
knight
of
a
bigge
stature
and
great
members
,
who
séemed
to
be
a
gyant
,
mounted
vpon
a
great
horse
verie
well
armed
,
and
his
Speare
in
his
hand
,
and
as
it
appeared
by
his
hastie
comming
,
he
was
allured
thether
by
the
noise
of
the
battaile
betwéene
the
thrée
knights
,
but
when
he
sawe
the
gran
Campion
,
he
neuer
rested
till
hée
came
vnto
him
,
and
sayd
.
Whether
art
thou
iourneying
this
waie
Bradaman
?
Then
he
verie
angrie
because
the
knight
was
so
bolde
to
aske
him
whether
he
went
,
wold
not
answere
him
because
he
would
not
be
deteined
,
till
such
time
as
he
sawe
in
what
state
the
battaile
was
betwixt
the
thrée
knights
,
but
setting
spurres
vnto
his
Elephant
,
he
rode
on
,
and
this
big
knight
followed
him
till
they
came
wheras
the
battaile
was
made
,
and
sawe
that
it
was
the
best
fought
battaile
that
euer
they
had
séene
in
all
their
liues
,
for
that
the
two
Princes
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
were
verie
valiant
knights
,
and
of
great
force
and
strength
,
and
charged
Bramarant
with
their
mightie
blowes
,
verie
thicke
and
stronglie
,
in
such
sort
,
that
if
he
had
not
bene
of
so
great
valour
and
force
as
he
was
,
be
could
not
haue
preuailed
against
them
.
But
this
furious
Pagan
was
so
braue
and
couragious
,
that
he
estéemed
in
nothing
their
mightie
blows
,
but
repaied
them
with
others
of
so
great
strength
,
that
many
times
hée
made
them
so
astonied
,
that
they
were
driuen
to
sustaine
themselues
by
their
saddle
bowes
and
horse
neckes
to
kéepe
themselues
from
falling
,
but
by
reason
that
they
were
two
of
great
valour
,
they
alwaies
put
him
in
great
perplexitie
,
which
caused
his
anger
and
wrath
the
more
to
increase
.
At
this
time
the
gran
Campion
setled
himselfe
for
to
helpe
his
sonne
,
the
sooner
to
make
a
conclusion
of
that
battaile
,
but
the
big
knight
that
came
thether
with
him
(
who
receiued
great
contentment
to
sée
the
thrée
how
they
made
that
battaile
)
dyd
put
himselfe
before
Bradaman
and
said
,
that
if
he
would
aid
and
succour
his
sonne
,
that
then
he
shoulde
be
constrained
first
of
all
to
combat
with
him
:
who
being
verie
angrie
at
those
wordes
,
answered
and
said
:
Sir
knight
,
tarrie
a
little
,
and
I
will
make
thee
to
vnderstand
what
a
foole
thou
art
for
to
take
with
me
contention
.
In
saying
these
wordes
he
departed
from
him
,
and
setting
spurres
vnto
his
Elephant
,
with
his
Speare
in
his
hand
,
which
was
as
bigge
as
the
mast
of
a
ship
,
he
came
running
against
the
knight
,
whose
with
so
great
swiftnesse
as
his
horse
could
run
,
came
against
him
,
whereas
they
made
their
encounters
in
such
sort
,
that
their
speares
were
shieuered
in
péeces
,
&
the
shieuers
slew
into
the
aire
,
and
either
of
them
declined
somwhat
backwarde
vppon
the
arsons
of
their
saddles
,
but
straight
waies
they
arose
and
setled
themselues
againe
,
and
drawing
out
their
swordes
they
came
the
one
against
the
other
,
whereas
begun
betwixt
them
such
a
battaile
,
that
it
was
a
wonder
to
〈◊〉
the
great
and
heauie
blowes
that
they
stroke
,
that
the
fire
●lew
out
of
their
healmes
and
harnesse
,
&
many
times
they
were
verie
sore
astonied
&
from
themselues
.
Then
the
fierce
Pagan
Bramarant
,
and
the
two
knights
that
did
battaile
with
him
,
with
the
great
noise
that
the
other
two
made
in
their
contention
,
left
off
their
combat
,
and
dyd
behold
the
other
,
and
were
greatlie
amazed
to
sée
with
what
great
furie
and
force
they
executed
their
blowes
the
one
vppon
the
other
,
the
gran
Campion
they
knew
,
but
not
the
other
knight
,
yet
they
had
him
in
estimation
of
a
worthie
knight
,
and
were
verie
desirous
to
know
who
he
was
,
for
that
they
could
not
imagine
whom
he
should
be
,
so
mightelie
did
he
behaue
himselfe
.
Thus
after
a
while
that
they
beheld
the
battaile
of
the
two
,
béeing
verie
desirous
for
to
conclude
and
make
an
end
of
theirs
,
they
beganne
a
new
to
charge
the
one
the
other
so
stronglie
,
that
it
seemed
they
were
more
fierce
and
furious
at
that
time
than
they
were
at
the
beginning
.
And
béeing
in
this
angrie
and
doubtfull
battaile
,
the
Hystorie
doth
leaue
the
one
and
the
other
,
for
tell
you
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
with
the
Princesse
Claridiana
remained
in
the
solitarie
Iland
.
How
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
Claridiana
after
that
they
were
departed
from
the
solitarie
Iland
,
did
deliuer
their
Pages
and
the
knightes
of
Candia
from
the
Roauer
Cleonidas
,
who
carried
them
Prisoners
.

VErie
glad
and
ioyfull
did
this
Hystorie
leaue
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
Claridiana
in
the
solitarie
Iland
,
whereas
with
the
companie
and
swéete
conuersation
of
them
both
,
with
a
verie
good
will
they
woulde
haue
lead
their
liues
,
cleane
voide
of
all
care
and
thought
of
their
high
and
royall
estates
,
if
they
might
haue
béen
frée
of
the
great
bondage
in
the
which
they
were
bound
,
but
hauing
a
great
respect
for
to
accomplish
their
duties
,
the
same
daie
that
they
met
together
,
and
knew
the
one
the
other
,
they
departed
out
from
the
Iland
,
and
embarked
themselues
in
the
Princesse
ship
,
and
hauing
a
faire
winde
and
prosperous
,
with
great
ioy
they
began
to
saile
towardes
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
and
the
fourth
daie
after
their
departure
from
the
Ilande
being
at
thrée
of
the
clocke
in
the
morning
,
a
great
waie
from
them
they
saw
comming
two
great
ships
,
and
as
it
séemed
with
all
sayles
bearing
they
came
towardes
them
.
So
in
a
short
space
by
reason
that
the
one
sailed
towards
the
other
,
their
ships
met
together
.
Then
they
that
were
within
the
two
ships
ioyned
with
the
other
ship
,
and
grapled
them
together
,
and
cried
out
with
a
loude
voice
,
commanding
them
to
amaine
,
&
to
yeeld
themselues
prisoners
.
The
which
being
hearde
by
those
two
faithfull
louers
,
they
straight
waies
laced
on
their
helmes
,
and
came
forth
to
the
ship
side
,
and
asked
what
they
were
that
would
take
them
prisoners
?
Then
straight
waies
more
than
ten
knights
of
a
gallant
proportion
and
wel
armed
,
came
forth
vnto
them
,
and
sayd
.
That
vnto
two
alone
knights
as
they
were
,
there
was
no
néede
for
to
make
that
account
,
but
yet
for
that
you
shall
vnderstand
vnto
whome
you
shall
yéeld
your selues
prisoners
,
know
that
we
are
all
belonging
vnto
the
gran
Cleonidas
,
and
we
doe
pardon
vnto
none
their
liues
,
except
they
doe
yéeld
vnto
vs
at
the
first
to
be
our
prisoners
.
Of
truth
(
sayde
the
Princesse
)
this
cannot
be
,
that
you
should
be
belonging
vnto
that
rouer
Cleonidas
,
for
that
he
is
not
in
this
world
,
neuerthelesse
if
that
you
be
in
your
workes
and
deedes
as
hée
was
,
you
shall
quicklie
be
wheras
he
is
,
and
that
is
with
the
diuell
.
How
is
this
,
sayd
they
,
is
our
Lord
Cleonidas
dead
?
It
is
not
possible
,
for
that
there
is
no
humane
power
,
neither
yet
diuine
,
that
is
of
so
much
power
for
to
kill
him
.
Then
you
shall
vnderstand
of
a
truth
(
sayde
the
Princesse
)
that
I
dyd
sée
him
slaine
onelie
with
one
blow
.
But
these
knights
would
not
beléeue
it
,
but
thought
verilie
that
they
sayd
it
because
they
woulde
deliuer
and
cleere
themselues
from
their
hands
,
and
one
of
them
would
haue
laide
holde
vpon
her
,
and
sayd
.
False
Knight
,
they
mocking
shal
little
profite
thée
,
for
in
spite
of
thy
heart
you
shall
goe
with
vs
prisoners
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
who
heard
and
sawe
all
that
passed
,
without
drawing
anie
sword
,
stroke
him
with
his
armed
fist
such
a
blowe
vppon
▪
the
head
,
that
he
buckled
his
helme
into
his
braines
,
and
ouerthrew
him
dead
at
his
féet
.
Then
all
the
rest
greatlie
amazed
at
that
blow
,
drew
their
swords
and
leapt
altogether
into
their
ship
,
and
beganne
to
charge
them
with
their
blowes
in
the
best
wise
they
could
,
but
these
two
who
in
the
like
conflicts
were
verie
well
experimented
,
drew
out
their
fine
and
slashing
swords
,
and
so
besturred
themselues
,
that
with
a
few
blows
they
slew
sixe
of
them
,
&
the
other
which
remained
,
making
a
great
noise
leapt
againe
into
their
ships
,
out
of
the
which
came
straight
waies
forth
more
than
thirtie
other
knights
,
who
séemed
to
be
verie
good
and
well
armed
,
and
altogether
began
to
leap
into
the
other
ship
,
and
charged
the
knight
of
the
Sun
and
the
Princesse
with
their
blowes
all
that
euer
they
coulde
,
but
▪
it
wel
appeared
that
they
did
not
know
their
great
worthinesse
,
in
that
they
approched
vnto
them
without
order
,
but
in
a
short
space
they
lost
all
their
brauerie
,
for
that
in
the
space
of
lesse
than
halfe
a
quarter
of
an
houre
that
the
battaile
was
begun
,
they
ouerthrew
more
than
twentie
of
them
to
the
ground
,
with
such
mortall
blowes
,
that
the
rest
which
remained
aliue
being
terrified
and
amazed
,
retyred
backe
vnto
their
ships
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
followed
them
,
whereas
they
found
a
new
resistance
,
with
certain
fresh
knights
and
other
people
that
were
in
the
ships
,
who
began
to
charge
them
verie
greatlie
,
and
laide
vpon
them
many
heauie
blowes
,
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
taking
the
foreward
of
his
mistres
,
setled
himselfe
in
such
sort
,
that
if
there
had
ben
a
thousand
knights
before
him
,
he
wold
haue
estéemed
them
little
,
and
being
verie
desirous
to
bée
reuenged
on
the
long
time
that
he
was
idle
in
the
solitarie
Iland
,
he
put
himselfe
amongest
his
enimies
,
and
charged
them
with
such
mortall
blowes
,
and
without
all
pittie
,
that
if
the
battaile
had
indured
but
a
little
longer
,
he
had
not
left
one
aliue
of
all
that
were
in
the
ships
.
Then
those
which
remained
,
seeing
there
was
no
resistance
to
bée
made
against
the
furie
of
those
two
knights
,
〈◊〉
downe
before
them
,
and
craued
pardon
for
their
liues
.
Then
they
who
were
redie
to
accomplish
their
requests
,
did
grant
them
their
desires
,
and
vnderstanding
the
truth
how
they
were
rouers
,
&
how
that
they
had
many
prisoners
in
their
ships
,
they
commaunded
them
to
bring
them
forth
before
them
.
Then
they
obeying
their
commandement
,
carried
them
into
certaine
bigge
cabbines
in
their
ships
,
whereas
they
found
many
men
and
women
with
chaines
and
boltes
of
yron
,
and
amongst
them
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
knew
his
good
Pages
Binnano
and
Aurelio
,
and
the
twentie
knightes
of
Candia
that
were
in
his
companie
.
Likewise
the
auncient
Pilot
that
tolde
vnto
him
the
storie
of
the
diuellish
Fauno
,
of
the
which
he
was
not
a
little
glad
,
for
that
they
were
deliuered
by
his
handes
.
But
when
they
knew
him
as
well
by
his
armour
as
by
his
face
,
for
that
at
that
time
his
beauer
was
lifte
vp
,
it
is
not
to
be
spoken
how
greatlie
they
meruailed
,
and
what
ioy
and
pleasure
they
receiued
,
and
as
amazed
they
looked
the
one
vpon
the
other
,
and
could
not
beleeue
that
he
should
be
aliue
,
and
his
two
Squires
as
from
themselues
,
came
vnto
him
,
and
knéeled
downe
before
him
,
and
began
to
kisse
his
armed
hands
,
and
the
skirt
of
shirt
of
maile
,
saying
:
O
Lord
God
,
how
can
we
gratifie
this
great
curtesie
which
thou
hast
done
vnto
vs
,
in
letting
vs
sée
before
our
deaths
this
excellent
and
worthy
prince
our
Lord
.
The
knight
of
th●
Sunne
receiued
them
with
great
loue
,
and
raised
them
from
the
ground
,
saying
:
My
good
friends
,
those
who
haue
had
you
in
their
powers
did
not
loue
you
so
much
as
I
haue
done
,
and
I
giue
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
that
I
doe
now
see
you
,
and
I
doe
desire
him
to
giue
〈◊〉
so
much
libertie
that
I
may
gratifie
you
,
these
greafe
troubles
the
which
for
my
sake
you
haue
sustained
,
for
surelie
it
was
a
great
griefe
vnto
my
heart
for
to
leaue
you
alone
in
that
case
without
all
comfort
,
when
I
thought
to
goe
and
leaue
my
life
.
Goe
and
kisse
the
handes
of
my
Ladie
and
mistres
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
who
next
vnto
God
hath
deliuered
me
from
death
.
They
hearing
the
same
,
meruailed
verie
much
thereat
,
and
went
and
knéeled
downe
before
her
,
and
would
haue
kissed
her
hands
,
but
the
Princesse
caused
them
to
arise
,
and
receiued
them
verie
curteouslie
,
for
that
she
knew
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
beare
them
great
loue
,
and
for
that
she
would
not
be
knowen
of
the
other
,
she
did
not
raise
vp
her
beauer
,
but
commaunded
that
it
shoulde
not
be
knowen
who
she
was
.
Then
the
knights
of
Candia
and
the
auncient
Pilot
came
and
kissed
the
hands
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
giuing
him
greate
thankes
for
their
libertie
,
which
at
his
handes
they
obtained
,
who
receiued
them
with
great
loue
,
and
commaunded
their
chaines
and
shakles
to
be
pulled
off
.
Then
they
asked
the
knight
of
the
Sun
what
had
happened
vnto
him
▪
in
the
Iland
of
the
diuellish
Fauno
.
My
good
friends
(
sayd
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
)
God
of
his
infinit
goodnesse
and
mercie
gaue
me
power
for
to
cléere
and
deliuer
my selfe
from
him
,
and
to
kill
him
,
for
that
in
that
Iland
he
may
be
serued
,
being
peopled
,
as
he
hath
ben
hetherto
dishonored
by
the
euill
life
and
demeanour
of
that
euill
Artimaga
.
Whereat
all
those
knights
and
the
auncient
Pilot
(
as
well
at
these
newes
,
as
also
at
the
great
destruction
which
they
sawe
done
in
those
ships
on
those
roaners
which
had
taken
them
prisoners
)
were
greatlie
amazed
and
knew
not
what
to
saie
,
neither
coniecture
who
that
valiant
and
worthie
knight
should
be
,
neither
durst
they
aske
him
the
qustion
,
but
had
a
great
good
will
all
the
whole
sort
of
them
for
to
goe
vnto
the
solitarie
Iland
,
for
to
sée
the
deformed
shape
of
that
diuellish
Fauno
which
remained
dead
.
Thus
afterwards
all
together
went
vnto
the
solitarie
Iland
,
and
when
they
came
aland
,
they
sawe
the
rocke
hewed
all
to
péeces
,
and
the
Fauno
where
s
he
laie
dead
,
and
by
the
writing
that
was
vpon
the
stone
,
they
vnderstood
that
he
which
did
that
worthie
act
●as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
&
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
&
hauing
a
great
desire
,
that
that
worthie
&
famous
deed
should
be
manifest
vnto
all
the
world
,
they
commanded
the
Fauno
to
be
skinned
or
slaied
,
&
filled
the
skinne
full
of
straw
,
and
so
carried
it
vnto
many
Countries
,
causing
great
admiration
vnto
all
those
that
did
sée
it
,
in
the
end
they
carried
it
vnto
Grecia
,
as
in
the
euent
of
this
Hystorie
shall
be
told
you
.
When
the
knights
of
Candia
vnderstood
all
that
they
desired
,
they
gaue
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
to
vnderstand
how
that
fiftéene
daies
past
,
as
they
were
all
together
nauigating
towards
Candia
,
they
met
at
the
sea
with
that
roauer
,
and
after
a
long
time
that
they
had
made
battaile
with
them
,
by
reason
that
they
were
many
,
they
were
constrained
to
yéeld
and
be
their
prisoners
,
and
how
that
long
before
that
,
they
had
taken
his
Pages
,
and
they
returned
backe
againe
for
to
séeke
the
solitarie
Iland
in
his
demand
,
and
there
to
die
in
his
companie
.
Thus
after
a
while
that
they
had
bene
with
him
,
and
giuen
him
to
vnderstand
of
al
that
had
passed
with
them
,
saying
,
that
he
had
a
iourney
in
hand
with
his
companion
,
that
he
could
not
by
anie
meanes
excuse
,
and
so
committed
them
to
God
and
good
fortune
,
and
gaue
them
the
ships
of
the
roauers
,
and
all
the
riches
that
was
in
them
,
which
was
a
great
quantitie
,
for
the
which
they
gaue
him
great
thankes
and
kissed
his
handes
,
taking
their
leaue
of
him
,
although
with
a
better
will
they
woulde
haue
gone
with
him
in
his
companie
.
And
being
departed
they
tooke
their
iourney
towardes
the
solitarie
Iland
,
hauing
inough
to
do
all
their
liues
after
for
to
tel
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
.
Then
he
with
the
Princesse
,
embarked
themselues
into
their
owne
ship
,
and
hauing
the
winde
prosperous
,
with
all
sa●les
bearing
,
they
sailed
towardes
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
and
not
being
troubled
with
contrarie
winds
,
neither
with
stormes
nor
tempests
,
in
a
short
space
they
ariued
in
a
port
the
which
was
but
two
daies
iourney
from
Constantinople
,
whereas
they
vnderstood
of
the
great
multitude
of
Pagans
that
were
entered
into
Grecia
,
and
in
what
state
the
wars
were
in
,
then
they
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
and
departed
from
thence
,
and
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
would
not
be
knowen
,
till
such
time
as
he
had
done
some
valiant
act
worthie
to
be
noted
,
they
agréed
that
he
should
leaue
his
armour
and
his
horse
that
he
had
,
and
to
arme
himselfe
with
some
other
strong
armour
,
which
the
princes
hadde
,
packed
in
fardels
,
the
which
her
damsels
caryed
alwayes
with
her
,
for
to
chaunge
at
all
times
at
her
pleasure
,
because
she
would
not
be
knowne
.
This
thing
they
straight
waies
put
in
vre
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
vnarmed
himselfe
of
that
good
armour
that
was
of
the
Prince
Meridian
,
and
gaue
them
vnto
the
damsells
of
the
princes
,
for
to
put
them
into
their
fardels
,
and
he
armed
himselfe
with
others
,
the
which
was
all
Asure
,
and
full
of
starres
of
gold
,
and
garnished
about
full
of
fine
precious
Stones
,
and
in
strength
and
goodnesse
,
nothing
inferiour
vnto
his
owne
,
for
that
they
were
made
by
the
wisest
men
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
the
Empire
of
●rapisonda
,
and
although
they
were
made
for
the
princes
,
yet
were
they
●it
for
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
in
stature
they
were
almost
equall
,
but
yet
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
more
fuller
of
fleshe
then
she
was
,
although
she
was
meetelie
reasonable
in
all
parts
.
Being
thus
armed
as
you
haue
heard
,
he
tooke
a
bigge
and
light
horse
,
one
of
them
that
the
Damsels
brought
,
and
left
his
owne
to
be
lead
alongst
by
the
〈◊〉
,
and
couered
his
horne
that
he
had
on
his
forehead
,
because
he
should
not
be
knowne
.
Likewise
,
the
princes
being
armed
with
other
strong
&
bright
armour
,
both
of
them
to gether
with
great
ioye
and
pleasure
,
tooke
their
iourney
towa●ds
the
mightie
citie
of
Cons●lantinople
.
And
the
second
daye
after
their
departure
from
the
port
,
they
entred
into
the
wildernesse
of
〈◊〉
,
wherein
they
hadde
not
traua●led
fully
two
miles
,
but
they
heard
a
great
and
continuall
noyse
,
which
ronge
and
sounded
throughout
all
the
wildernesse
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
the
noise
of
some
strong
and
well
foughten
battaile
or
combat
on
horsebacke
,
And
being
verie
desirous
to
know
what
it
should
bée
,
they
amended
their
horse
pace
,
and
rode
that
waye
from
whence
they
thought
the
noyse
should
come
.
In
the
ende
of
a
good
houre
that
they
had
trauailed
,
the
noyse
brought
them
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
Gran
Campion
and
his
aduersarie
made
their
combat
on
the
one
side
,
and
on
the
other
side
the
stout
Bramarant
,
with
Brandimardo
and
Meridian
,
and
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
knewe
none
of
all
those
knightes
,
but
onelie
the
gran
Campion
,
which
was
by
his
great
and
huge

they
all
greatlie
meruailed
to
sée
that
strong

rigorous
battaile
that
was
betweene
them
,
and
coulde
not
imagine
who
that
valiant
Pagan
Bramarant
shóuld
be
,
for
that
vnto
his
remembrance
he
had
not
séene
a
knight
of
so
bigge
a
stature
,
and
one
that
stroke
so
terrible
blowes
,
neither
could
he
fall
into
the
reckoning
of
those
stout
and
valiant
knights
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
who
so
stronglie
did
charge
their
aduersarie
,
and
made
so
great
resistaunce
against
the
furie
of
that
Pagan
.
On
the
other

they
greatlie
beheld
the
gran

they
were
beholding
the
singular
disposition
of
the
knight
,
and
the
high
bountie
wherewith

made

mightie
force
hée
made
his

in

féeble
state

had
brought
him

there
they
staied
a

while
to

WIth
great
desire
for
to
know
those
two
worthie
and
valiant
knights
,
Meridian
&
Brandimardo
,
with
the
mightie
Pagan
Bramarant
,
was
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
beholding
the
strong
and
rigorous
battaile
that
was
betwixt
them
and
they
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
the
most
strongest
&
valiantest
knights
that
euer
they
sawe
in
all
their
liues
,
and
for
that
hée
was
fullie
perswaded
that
he
who
made
the
combat
with
the
gran
Campion
was
Rosicleer
,
so
likewise
he
thought
that
it
could
not
be
otherwise
,
but
those
who
dyd
combat
with
Bramarant
must
néeds
be
of
his
companie
,
and
possible
to
bée
those
two
Princes
Brandizel
and
Claueryn●o
,
or
that
mightie
Troyan
Oristedes
,
for
that
they
●id
resemble
verie
much
those
knights
.
Then
the
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
being
verie
desirous
for
to
make
peace
and
quietnesse
betwixt
them
,
for
that
they
were
all
valiant
and
strong
knights
,
as
also
for
to
know
who
Bramarant
was
,
left
the
Princesse
and
went
vnto
them
,
and
putting
himselfe
betwixt
them
,
he
sayde
:
Sir
knights
,
I
shall
receiue
it
in
great
curtesie
,
if
that
at
my
request
you
will
leaue
off
this
battaile
betwixt
you
,
for
that
it
is
a
great
griefe
vnto
me
to
sée
such
worthie
and
valiant
knightes
as
you
are
,
contend
to
kill
one
another
,
without
hauing
anie
iust
occasio●
therevnto
.
Then
the
two
worthie
Princes
Meridian
and
Brandima●do
séeing
the
gentle
disposition
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
&
the
great
curtesie
hée
vsed
in
his
wordes
,
straight
waies
withdrew
themselues
a
part
,
in
saying
that
they
were
verie
well
content
at
his
request
so
for
to
doe
,
for
that
as
then
they
themselues
knew
not
for
what
cause
they
dyd
make
that
battaile
.
But
this
proude
and
fierce
Pagan
Bramarant
,
who
was
verie
furious
and
wrathfull
,
with
a
great
desire
to
reuenge
himselfe
vpon
them
,
with
a
proude
disdainefull
and
horse
voyce
,
faming
at
the
mouth
,
sayde
:
Knight
get
thée
away
straight
waies
from
that
place
,
and
so
that
thou
speakest
no
more
vnto
mée
of
that
matter
,
for
if
thou
dost
,
I
doe
sweare
vnto
thée
,
that
in
concluding
of
the
battaile
with
these
two
,
I
wil
begin
it
with
thée
,
and
then
thou
shalt
quickly
pay
mee
this
anger
and
griefe
which
thou
haste
giuen
mée
.
And
as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
reply
in
requesting
him
againe
to
accomplish
his
request
.
He
verie
furious
and
angerie
,
lift
vp
his
heauie
sword
,
and
stroke
him
such
a
blow
vpon
the
healme
,
that
he
daseled
the
sight
of
his
eyes
,
and
saide
,
now
come
you
all
thrée
against
mée
,
for
I
will
reuenge
my selfe
on
you
all
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
receiued
not
so
much
griefe
in
receiuing
that
blow
,
as
in
the
discourtesie
of
Bramarant
,
in
drawing
out
his
good
sword
sayde
,
here
I
doe
promise
thée
proude
and
discourteous
knight
,
that
this
which
thou
wouldest
not
accomplish
nor
doe
at
my
request
,
this
my
mortall
battaile
shall
make
thee
to
doe
by
force
,
and
concluding
these
words
,
he
tourned
vnto
the
other
two
knights
,
desiring
them
to
let
him
deale
alone
with
him
.
But
they
for
that
they
did
not
know
him
,
and
had
felt
by
experience
,
the
mightie
power
of
Bramarant
,
would
not
consent
thérevnto
,
for
that
they
thought
it
a
thing
impossible
,
for
him
to
make
defence
against
that
mightie
and
fierce
Pagan
halfe
a
quarter
of
an
houre
.
●ut
yet
in
the
ende
,
he
did
so
much
importune
them
,
that
they
were
constrained
therevnto
,
with
condition
that
they
should
succour
him
,
when
that
they
did
see
that
he
stoode
in
anie
néede
of
either
of
their
helpes
.
Here
was
the
stout
Pagan
Bramarant
greatly
amazed
to
sée
how
that
knight
durst
venter
to
combat
with
him
alone
,
and
to
refuse
the
ayde
of
the
other
two
good
knights
,
could
not
immagine
who
it
should
be
,
but
iudged
rather
that
his
bouldnesse
should
procéede
more
of
folly
then
of
●orce
:
but
he
was
put
quickly
out
of
that
doubt
,
fo●
that
〈…〉
as
the
battaile
was
begun
betwixt
them
,
he
quickly
vnd●rstoode
stoode
that
he
was
the
most
brauest
&
strongest
knight
that
euer
he
had
proued
,
for
that
many
t●mes
he
dyd
depart
him
of
his
sight
,
and
made
him
to
decline
his
head
to
the
horse
necke
,
making
him
to
puffe
&
blow
lyke
a
Lion
,
who
waxed
therewith
more
wrathfull
and
furious
,
which
cau●ed
him
with
mortall
yre
,
to
strike
such
blowes
vpon
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
he
gaue
him
well
to
vnderstand
how
great
&
mightie
was
the
power
of
Bramarant
,
who
mused
greatly
who
that
mightie
knight
should
be
.
In
this
sorte
was
shere
betwixt
them
the
brauest
battaile
that
euer
was
sen●
fought
betwixt
two
.
All
this
while
were
the
two
Princes
Meridian
,
and
Brandimardo
,
in
great
admiration
,
when
that
they
saw
the
great
worthinesse
of
the
knight
:
but
the
princes
Claridiana
,
who
also
dyd
beheld
them
,
dyd
nor
meruaile
at
that
which
her
knight
dyd
,
for
that
she
had
before
time
knowen
his
great
bountie
,
but
yet
she
greatly
wondred
to
sée
how
strongly
Bramarant
,
dyd
combat
with
him
,
who
although
more
then
two
houres
before
he
hadde
maintained
battaile
against
the
other
two
knights
,
yet
at
this
time
ther
appered
no
point
of
wearines
in
him
,
but
rather
he
shewed
himself
to
be
more
brauer
&
furious
then
at
the
beginning
.
Then
after
when
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
began
to
be
kindled
in
wrath
,
and
that
his
yre
increased
,
was
the
battaile
worthie
to
be
loked
on
,
to
sée
what
he
did
therein
,
for
that
his
terrible
blowes
were
such
,
that
eue●i●
one
of
them
was
sufficient
for
to
haue
clouen
an
armed
knight
from
toppe
to
toe
,
if
they
had
not
bene
defended
by
their
inchaunted
armour
:
great
aboundance
of
sparkes
of
fire
flew
out
of
their
armour
,
and
slew
vp
a
great
way
in
the
ayre
,
before
they
lost
their
light
,
and
with
the
great
noyse
which
they
made
in
striking
theyr
blowes
,
all
that
wildernesse
did
ring
there
with
,
and
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
that
were
talking
together
,
could
scarce
heare
the
one
the
other
,
but
had
their
eares
〈◊〉
with
the
noyse
thereof
.
〈…〉
,
with
mortall
furie
and
diuelish
wrath
,
stretched
vp
himselfe
in
his
stirrups
on
his
mightie
horse
,
and
tooke
his
sword
with
both
his
ha●ds
,
and
stroke
this
good
knight
such
a
blow
vpon
his
left
shoulder
,
which
glaunced
downe
from
his
healme
,
that
he
thought
ver●ly
he
had
bene
clouen
in
péeces
,
the
paine
was
so
great
he
fol●
:
and
agine
,
if
he
hadd●
not
embrased
himselfe
about
his
horse
necke
,
he
hadde
surely
fallen
to
the
ground
.
And
as
ye
he
hadde
not
well
righted
himselfe
in
the
saddle
,
when
that
this
stronge
Pagan
,
stroke
him
an
other
blow
ouerthwart
the
healme
,
that
he
daseled
the
sight
of
his
eyes
,
and
it
lacked
little
to
depriue
him
of
his
remembraunce
.
Then
this
valiant
knight
séeing
himselfe
so
entreated
of
his
enimie
,
being
all
kindeled
in
wrath
,
raysed
himselfe
in
his
stirruppes
,
and
with
his
sword
in
both
his
handes
,
dyd
strike
such
a
furious
blow
at
this
stout
and
diuelish
pagan
,
vpon
his
enchanted
healme
,
that
being
depriued
of
his
sight
and
remembraunce
,
he
declyned
backewards
so
much
,
that
his
head
almost
touched
his
horse
buttockes
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
if
he
hadde
not
straight
wayes
come
to
his
remembrance
,
and
with
all
the
strength
of
his
legges
and
bodie
,
procured
to
bustle
vp
himselfe
againe
,
with
that
alone
blow
hée
hadde
bene
ouerthrowen
to
the
earth
:
then
with
great
furie
and
wrath
,
they
began
to
charge
the
one
the
other
with
their
heauie
and
fell
blowes
,
and
according
vnto
the
terrible
force
with
which
they
stroke
,
it
séemed
that
the
battaile
began
anewe
.
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
who
dyd
behold
all
that
hadde
passed
,
sayde
,
it
may
be
that
this
is
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
so
long
time
hath
bene
absent
,
and
could
not
be
heard
in
all
the
countrie
of
Grecia
,
for
that
it
is
not
to
be
beléeued
,
that
any
knight
in
all
the
whole
world
,
should
doe
that
which
this
worthie
and
valiant
knight
hath
done
in
our
presence
,
except
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
They
dyd
also
on
the
other
part
beholde
the
cruell
and
〈…〉
had
with
the
G●a●
Campion
,
who
likewise
they
dyd
not
kn●w
,
whereat
they
were
greatly
wondered
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
them
,
that
those
foure
which
at
that
present
dyd
there
combat
,
were
foure
of
the
most
〈…〉
in
all
the
worlde
,
and
they
sayde
within
〈◊〉
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
had
not
in
all
his
court
,
a
knight
that
one
to
one
could
resist
the
great
and
mightie
strength
and
furious
rages
of
the
two
Pagans
,
but
onely
the
valiant
Rosicleer
,
whome
they
dyd
iudge
of
a
truth
,
to
bee
the
same
that
dyd
combat
with
the
stout
Bradaman
.
Now
was
it
a
good
houre
and
a
halfe
,
since
the
battaile
was
begunne
,
at
which
time
the
stoute
and
furious
Bramarant
,
séeing
that
his
aduersarie
endured
his
mightie
and
heauie
blowes
so
long
before
him
,
was
readie
to
burst
with
anger
,
and
began
to
blaspheme
and
curse
himselfe
,
for
that
at
one
blow
he
could
not
cleaue
him
a
sunder
,
right
downe
from
the
toppe
of
his
head
to
the
wast
,
the
which
strong
resistaunce
,
made
him
to
thinke
verely
,
that
he
should
be
one
of
his
false
goddes
,
or
else
all
they
together
,
hadde
placed
their
force
and
strength
in
that
alone
knight
,
for
to
battaile
against
him
:
which
caused
his
great
pryde
the
more
to
encrease
,
and
being
troubled
with
that
thought
,
he
forced
himselfe
by
his
pride
,
for
to
surmount
the
diuine
Goddes
,
he
tooke
his
heauie
sword
in
both
his
handes
,
and
raysing
him selfe
all
that
euer
he
could
in
his
stirruppes
,
and
like
a
furious
whirle
winde
,
he
went
against
the
good
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
his
wrath
was
such
,
that
I
thinke
there
was
no
stéele
or
Diamonde
,
nor
any
other
hard
thing
in
all
the
world
,
that
could
make
any
resistance
against
that
mortall
and
diuelish
blow
,
for
that
this
fierce
Pagan
for
to
accomplish
his
furie
,
forced
himselfe
all
that
euer
he
could
,
to
haue
bereaued
the
valiant
knight
of
the
Sunne
of
life
and
●im
,
and
his
wrath
was
suche
,
that
the
wise
and
learned
clarke
Lirgandeo
,
was
in
doubt
,
that
againste
that
mightie
force
,
should
support
any
thing
the
inchauntement
of
the
armour
which
the
wise
man
sent
to
the
good
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
but
he
who
saw
him
come
so
wrathfull
and
furious
,
with
a
mightie
and
valiant
courage
,
dyd
abide
him
.
And
at
such
time
as
he
would
haue
discarged
his
heauie
sword
vpon
his
helme
,
he
lift
vp
his
sword
with
both
his
hands
for
to
ward
the
same
,
and
receiued
that
mightie
〈…〉
same
,
&
for
that
the
edge
of
his
swor●e
was
〈◊〉
finer
fi●er
and
sharper
then
his
,
it
cut
the
sword
of
Bramarant
a
sunder
in
the
middest
,
and
the
péece
which
remained
towards
the
hilt
lighted
vpon
the
healme
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
although
it
was
not
much
,
yet
dyd
it
depriue
him
of
his
sight
.
Then
the
good
knight
being
greatly
amazed
at
the
mortall
furie
of
his
enimie
,
dyd
pray
vnto
God
from
the
bottome
of
his
heart
for
to
remember
him
,
&
not
to
forget
&
leaue
him
in
that
perilous
conflict
.
It
séemed
at
that
time
that
he
had
great
néede
of
the
diuine
fauour
for
to
get
victorie
in
that
battaile
,
at
which
time
his
wrath
and
yre
increased
with
so
great
anger
to
sée
himselfe
so
intreated
before
his
mistres
by
one
alone
knight
,
that
he
retyred
backe
somewhat
from
the
place
whereas
they
made
the
battaile
,
from
whence
hée
set
spurres
vnto
his
horse
&
came
against
Bramarant
,
with
so
great
furie
,
that
the
earth
séemed
to
tremble
vnder
him
,
and
his
fiercenesse
was
such
,
that
it
séemed
to
put
some
dread
into
the
heart
of
that
fierce
Pagan
,
in
the
which
before
neuer
entred
any
feare
,
for
I
insure
you
,
who
so
euer
had
sene
that
furious
knight
,
with
his
sword
aboue
his
head
in
both
his
hands
,
and
with
what
wonderfull
furie
he
came
against
him
,
would
haue
had
no
lesse
feare
of
him
,
then
of
the
thunderbolt
that
falleth
out
of
the
ayre
:
so
in
this
sorte
when
he
approched
vnto
the
Pagan
he
stroke
,
and
chaunsed
such
a
blow
vpon
his
great
,
thick
,
and
inchaunted
healme
,
with
so
great
furie
,
that
it
hadde
bene
sufficient
for
to
haue
clouen
a
Smithes
stithe
asunder
in
the
middest
,
and
for
that
the
fine
cutting
edge
of
his
sword
,
could
not
cut
the
magical
arte
and
inchauntment
of
his
strong
healme
,
yet
dyd
that
blow
so
ouercharge
his
head
by
the
great
waight
thereof
,
that
it
tooke
his
remembrance
cleane
from
him
,
and
lyke
a
dead
thing
he
fell
forwards
vppon
his
saddle
bow
,
and
horse
neck
,
hanging
downe
his
head
,
and
out
at
the
ioynts
of
his
helme
issued
great
〈◊〉
of
bloud
,
and
his
mightie
horse
being
tormented
with
the
force
of
that
blowe
,
●anne
out
of
that
place
,
and
put
himselfe
into
the
thickest
of
that
wildernesse
with
his
Lord
,
then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
who
desired
not
to
folow
him
,
retourned
vnto
Meridian
and
Bra●dimardo
,
saying
,
Sir
knights
,
I
doe
desire
you
to
pardon
mée
,
if
you
haue
any
anger
against
mée
,
in
that
I
tooke
vppon
mée
the
battaile
with
that
proude
knight
,
that
did
combat
with
you
,
for
I
ensure
you
that
his
great
pride
would
not
let
mée
to
giue
place
,
vnto
that
I
am
bound
to
your
great
courtesie
and
bountie
.
Then
dyd
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
verie
much
behold
him
,
and
were
greatly
amazed
at
his
great
strength
,
and
said
within
themselues
,
that
he
was
the
most
valiant
in
all
the
whole
world
,
for
that
he
alone
hath
done
,
that
which
the
whole
armie
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
could
not
doe
,
and
according
therevnto
they
answered
and
said
.
Of
truth
Sir
Knight
,
your
great
bountie
and
courtesie
is
such
,
that
we
should
accompt
our selues
for
happie
,
for
to
know
you
,
and
therby
to
serue
you
,
and
to
haue
you
in
that
estimation
as
your
great
worthinesse
doth
deserue
,
and
wée
doe
giue
you
great
thankes
for
the
trauaile
and
perill
from
the
which
you
haue
deliuered
vs
.
Your
bountie
and
worthinesse
is
such
,
so
farre
forth
as
I
haue
seeme
,
(
saide
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
)
that
of
your selues
you
are
a
sufficient
securitie
to
deliuer
you
from
all
perill
:
neuerthelesse
,
if
I
haue
done
any
thing
,
it
was
nothing
but
by
vertue
of
your
great
courtesie
,
considering
the
great
villanie
vsed
by
that
knight
.
And
in
that
you
doe
require
for
to
know
my
name
,
I
doe
most
heartely
desire
you
,
that
for
this
present
,
you
would
not
request
the
same
,
for
that
it
is
not
in
my
power
for
to
declare
it
vnto
you
,
till
such
time
as
I
haue
accomplished
and
perfourmed
a
promise
,
the
which
I
haue
made
vnto
yonder
knight
,
who
came
with
mée
:
Then
they
séeing
that
he
hadde
no
will
for
to
declare
who
he
was
,
but
to
kéepe
himselfe
in
secrete
,
would
not
import●ne
him
anie
more
for
the
〈◊〉
,
and
〈…〉
themselues
that
it
could
be
〈…〉
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
that
constrained
through
some
great
occasion
▪
he
would
not
suffer
himselfe
to
be
〈◊〉
,
and
the
more
to
prouoke
him
therevnto
,
they
●fted
vp
the
beauers
of
their
helmes
,
in
such
sort
that
the
knight
of
the
S●nne
did
kn●w
them
,
and
was
verie
glad
thereof
,
for
that
hée
had
them
in
great
estimation
,
although
at
that
time
he
woulde
not
giue
them
●o
vnderstand
in
anie
wise
that
he
dyd
knowe
them
.
In
all
this
time
the
Princesse
Claridiana
receiued
great
contentment
in
that
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
hadde
done
,
and
all
foure
together
did
put
themselues
to
beholde
the
cruell
contention
and
rigorous
battaile
that
was
betwixt
the
valiant
knight
Rosicleer
and
the
gran
Campion
,
who
at
the
great
noise
of
the
last
blowe
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
gaue
vnto
Bramarant
,
did
aparte
themselues
from
their
battaile
to
sée
what
it
shoulde
bée
,
and
they
sawe
the
mightie
Pagan
cleane
voide
of
anie
remembrance
,
and
his
horse
carrying
him
into
the
thickest
of
all
that
wildernesse
.
Then
Rosicleer
meruailing
greatlie
at
that
knight
,
for
that
he
had
so
great
power
for
to
bring
him
into
that
perplexitie
,
made
no
more
a
doe
,
but
retourned
vnto
his
battaile
,
whose
blowes
were
so
many
,
and
of
great
force
and
strength
,
that
it
was
a
wonder
to
beholde
,
and
for
that
it
was
more
than
foure
houres
since
the
battaile
was
begun
,
the
gra●
Campion
wa●ed
wearie
,
and
it
séemed
that
Rosicleer
had
somewhat
the
vantage
of
him
,
but
yet
with
the
exceding
great
griefe
which
he
receiued
to
sée
his
sonne
Bramarant
carried
by
his
ho●se
in
that
sorte
,
he
wa●ed
therewithall
▪
so
wrathfull
and
furious
,
that
he
neither
felt
trauaile
nor
wearinesse
,
and
charged
Rosicleer
with
such
a
multitude
of
blowes
,
that
many
times
he
did
astonish
and
amaze
him
,
but
yet
in
the
ende
,
the
cruell
destinie
of
this
Gran
Campion
was
such
,
and
againe
,
for
that
his
cruell
death
was
ordained
from
aboue
,
the
ire
of
that
worthie
and
valiant
Rosicleer
,
so
encreased
in
him
,
that
with
a
mortall
furie
,
he
stroke
so
mightie
a
blow
at
Bradaman
,
ouerthwart
his
wast
,
that
he
made
him
decline
on
the
other
side
almost
from
himselfe
,
and
being
in
this
sorte
almost
out
of
his
saddle
,
his
euill
fortune
was
such
,
that
in
his
stouping
,
he
discouered
a
naked
place
vnder
his
arme
,
whereas
was
no
other
defence
but
his
shirt
of
mayle
,
the
which
being
séene
by
Rosicleer
,
being
very
desirous
to
make
an
ende
of
that
long
contencion
,
he
thrust
at
him
with
the
point
of
his
good
sword
,
with
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
he
made
his
sword
to
enter
vp
to
the
harde
,
hiltes
,
and
pulling
it
out
all
blodied
,
the
Gran
Campion
fel
from
his
Elephant
downe
to
the
ground
,
and
within
a
little
while
after
he
yelded
his
soule
vnto
the
Diuell
,
who
had
deceiued
him
in
the
blinde
law
of
his
false
gods
.
Oh
false
and
weake
foundation
of
man
,
for
that
they
which
are
most
endewed
with
corporall
force
,
doth
thinke
their
liues
in
most
securitie
,
without
respecting
that
contrarie
vnto
the
confidence
which
they
haue
in
their
great
strengthes
,
fortune
doth
double
hers
,
and
that
many
tymes
with
great
anger
,
for
that
he
doth
finde
no
equall
contemner
.
And
for
to
shew
what
a
weake
animall
man
is
,
with
an
vnsemely
weake
and
hidden
euell
,
be
the
mightie
great
Gyants
ouerthrowen
.
As
he
that
slew
Hercules
,
was
very
little
,
who
was
he
that
had
the
victorie
in
all
things
.
Likewise
Milo
,
the
stoutest
amongst
men
,
an
Oke
dyd
staye
him
,
so
that
he
was
torne
in
péeces
with
wilde
beastes
,
so
that
wée
may
saye
that
that
force
the
which
was
without
comparison
,
was
lesse
then
a
clouen
Oke
:
what
doeth
he
think
then
to
doe
,
that
is
but
of
a
meane
strength
,
what
doth
he
think
to
haue
his
lyfe
in
more
securitie
,
and
to
be
more
aparted
from
the
lyght
and
mouable
whéele
of
Fortune
,
then
was
this
stout
and
fierce
Bradaman
Campion
,
the
most
valiant
and
mightiest
of
all
Gyants
,
one
that
hadde
force
and
strength
,
for
to
bringe
in
subiection
,
those
fierce
and
indomable
people
of
the
whole
compasse
of
the
Orientall
Ilandes
,
and
yet
at
this
present
he
lacked
strength
for
to
defend
himselfe
from
one
alone
knight
,
of
a
great
deale
lesse
stature
than
he
was
of
,
who
with
one
alonelie
blow
he
slew
him
,
and
dyd
abate
his
p●ide
,
the
which
many
thousands
of
Gyants
could
〈…〉
Likewise
mortall
men
doe
thinke
,
and
doe
boast
themselues
more
of
vertue
,
than
of
valiantnesse
or
strength
,
for
that
alone
the
force
of
the
soule
,
in
that
which
receiueth
no
strength
cannot
be
ouercome
,
neither
hath
fortune
anie
power
against
it
,
and
as
it
is
placed
in
the
soule
,
it
hath
no
néede
of
anie
corporall
strength
,
and
according
vnto
the
saying
of
the
wise
Ly●gandeo
and
Artemidoro
,
they
were
not
so
much
moued
,
by
the
high
knighthood
and
mortall
conflicts
of
these
two
so
worthie
Princes
,
for
to
write
this
mightie
Hystorie
,
as
they
were
by
their
great
vertues
,
and
excellencie
of
courage
and
gallant
demeanours
,
the
which
in
all
their
life
times
did
shine
in
them
,
for
which
cause
(
saie
they
)
they
were
more
esteemed
and
had
greater
fame
,
than
for
the
great
force
and
strength
which
they
had
,
and
alwaies
they
did
estéeme
themselues
,
and
delighted
more
in
vertue
than
in
their
strength
,
and
therefore
these
wise
men
saie
,
that
if
this
mightie
Hystorie
be
pleasant
and
delightfull
vnto
the
readers
,
so
shall
it
be
no
lesse
profitable
vnto
them
,
that
with
great
care
and
diligence
will
note
and
consider
well
,
how
these
knightes
were
giuen
vnto
vertue
all
their
lyfe
times
.
Thus
as
it
is
verie
profitable
and
necessarie
for
the
taking
out
of
anie
worke
to
haue
a
patterne
before
him
,
euen
so
likewise
it
is
no
lesse
necessarie
and
profitable
vnto
him
that
will
giue
himselfe
to
vertue
,
the
good
patterne
or
example
of
vertues
,
in
especiall
of
these
so
high
and
worthie
Princes
in
whom
by
reason
of
their
high
estates
,
their
vertue
and
bountie
doth
shine
the
cléerer
.
But
now
to
returne
to
our
matter
.
The
Hystorie
saith
,
that
when
the
gran
Campion
was
dead
,
Rosicleer
dyd
make
cleane
his
sworde
,
and
put
it
vp
into
his
sheath
,
giuing
infinite
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
for
that
victorie
permitted
vnto
him
,
and
when
he
sawe
the
other
foure
knights
comming
towardes
him
,
he
likewise
went
towards
them
,
and
receiued
them
with
great
courtesie
,
for
that
he
knew
both
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
by
reason
their
faces
was
discouered
.
And
for
that
he
had
them
in
estimation
to
be
no
lesse
vertuous
then
worthie
and
valiant
knights
,
he
lift
vp
the
beuer
of
his
healme
,
and
discouered
himselfe
vnto
them
,
saying
,
My
good
Lords
,
I
doe
verely
beléeue
,
that
the
battaile
the
which
you
hadde
with
Bramarant
,
ought
more
to
be
attributed
vnto
his
great
pride
,
then
of
any
misusing
committed
of
your
parts
against
him
,
for
that
it
is
not
in
your
conditions
.
Then
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
receiued
him
verie
courteously
and
reioysed
verie
much
in
knowing
him
,
and
Meridian
sayde
:
Worthy
prince
,
I
doe
giue
great
thankes
vnto
all
our
gods
,
for
that
they
haue
giuen
mee
to
know
so
great
worthinesse
,
as
this
day
I
haue
séene
in
you
,
and
in
this
worthie
and
valiant
knight
.
And
I
promise
you
th●
occasion
of
our
battaile
was
for
a
very
light
matter
,
for
that
vnto
proude
and
hautie
persons
a
little
thing
is
enough
to
bring
them
out
of
quiet●
There
d●d
he
declare
vnto
them
all
that
euer
hadde
passed
betwixt
them
till
such
time
as
that
knight
came
thether
,
and
put
Bramarant
in
that
estate
as
you
haue
heard
.
All
this
time
dyd
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
behold
Rosicleer
,
his
brother
,
and
reioysed
very
much
to
sée
him
so
good
,
strong
,
and
valiant
,
and
if
it
had
not
bene
,
because
he
would
not
anger
nor
giue
any
discontentment
vnto
the
princes
,
he
would
haue
giuen
him selfe
to
be
knowen
vnto
him
,
his
ioye
and
pleasure
was
so
great
,
but
because
it
was
the
princes
will
,
not
at
that
present
to
be
knowen
,
it
was
dissembled
,
although
that
Rosicleer
,
and
the
other
princes
dyd
desire
it
verie
much
,
who
being
greatly
amazed
,
at
the
mightie
and
gallant
disposition
of
both
of
them
,
could
not
be
perswaded
to
the
contrarye
,
but
that
one
of
them
should
be
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
At
this
time
the
knight
began
to
approch
,
and
the
princes
sayde
that
it
was
time
for
them
all
for
to
retourne
,
they
vnto
their
campe
,
and
the
other
vnto
the
citie
.
And
as
they
saide
,
it
was
concluded
,
and
they
all
departed
together
from
that
place
:
and
when
that
they
came
nigh
vnto
their
campe
,
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
dyd
take
their
leaue
of
Rosicleer
,
and
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
giuing
them
great
thankes
,
for
that
which
they
had
done
for
them
,
offering
vnto
them
great
courtesie
.
When
that
they
were
departed
,
Rosicleer
,
dyd
aske
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
princes
,
if
it
were
their
pleasure
for
to
goe
and
take
their
lodging
with
him
in
the
citie
and
pallace
of
his
Father
the
Emperour
,
who
will
take
great
ioye
and
pleasure
for
to
honour
such
knights
as
they
were
,
within
his
owne
pallace
.
Then
they
aunswered
him
with
great
courtesie
,
giuing
him
thankes
for
his
gentle
offer
,
but
desired
him
at
that
time
that
he
would
pardon
them
,
and
heareafter
they
shall
haue
better
oportunitie
of
time
for
to
goe
and
kisse
the
handes
of
the
Emperour
,
but
first
their
determination
was
,
for
to
doe
him
some
seruice
in
those
warres
:
and
how
that
with
this
pretence
,
they
came
forth
of
their
countries
,
the
which
is
verie
farre
,
and
a
great
way
out
of
Grecia
,
for
which
occasion
they
came
vnprouided
of
things
necessarie
to
their
persons
,
requesting
him
to
pleasure
them
so
much
as
to
send
them
a
Tent
,
for
to
lodge
themselues
,
and
their
squires
:
whereat
Rosicleer
was
verie
glad
,
for
that
they
would
be
of
their
part
,
and
for
to
send
them
out
of
hand
,
the
Tent
,
he
tooke
his
leaue
of
them
,
leauing
them
in
the
field
,
harde
by
the
other
campe
,
he
entred
into
the
Citie
and
went
vnto
the
royall
pallace
,
wheras
he
founde
the
Emperour
,
and
all
the
other
high
princes
,
in
a
great
alteration
,
determining
for
to
arme
themselues
for
to
goe
and
seeke
him
,
for
that
they
could
not
heare
any
newes
of
him
,
where
he
was
become
,
mistrusting
that
some
euill
had
happened
vnto
him
,
he
was
so
long
out
of
the
citie
,
but
when
they
saw
him
enter
in
,
they
were
all
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
,
but
in
especiall
the
Emperour
,
who
asked
of
him
where
he
hadde
bene
,
then
he
in
the
presence
of
them
all
,
declared
what
had
happened
vnto
him
since
his
departure
out
of
the
citie
.
But
when
he
said
that
he
left
the
Gran
Campion
,
dead
in
the
wildernesse
,
their
ioye
and
pleasure
dyd
redouble
in
them
all
,
likewise
when
that
he
told
them
of
the
battayle
,
which
the
strange
knight
had
made
with
Bramarant
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
,
and
could
not
immagine
what
knight
he
should
be
of
so
great
power
and
force
,
except
it
were
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
of
long
time
they
neuer
heard
any
newes
of
:
yet
they
thought
verely
that
if
it
were
he
,
he
would
not
keepe
himselfe
secret
,
so
that
the
Emperour
and
all
the
rest
remained
in
a
confusion
,
and
prayed
vnto
God
,
that
it
might
be
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
hauing
him
with
them
,
they
should
thinke
themselues
in
great
securitie
of
the
mightie
power
of
the
Pagans
,
surely
they
receiued
great
griefe
for
his
absence
,
although
the
good
Emperour
dyd
make
no
shew
therof
,
yet
dyd
there
neuer
enter
any
mirth
into
his
heart
,
since
his
departure
out
of
the
court
,
and
in
especial
for
that
he
had
sent
many
knights
into
diuers
parts
,
for
to
séeke
him
,
but
yet
could
he
neuer
heare
any
newes
of
him
:
and
now
was
his
minde
full
o●
suspection
that
it
should
be
he
,
that
made
the
battayle
with
Bramarant
.
Then
straight
waies
,
he
sent
vnto
the
two
knights
two
Tentes
,
verie
ritch
of
gold
and
silke
,
with
bedding
verie
good
for
them
and
for
their
damsels
and
squires
,
and
all
other
things
which
he
thought
néedful
and
necessarie
for
them
,
and
sent
the
king
of
Macedonia
,
in
his
behalfe
vnto
them
,
with
them
that
carryed
the
Tentes
.
When
that
he
came
into
the
field
,
he
straight
wayes
mette
with
them
,
to
whome
the
king
dyd
present
that
which
was
sent
,
and
sayde
that
the
Emperour
did
send
them
great
commendations
,
saying
,
that
if
it
were
their
pleasures
for
to
enter
into
the
Citie
and
take
their
lodging
,
he
should
receiue
great
pleasure
and
contentment
therein
,
for
that
there
hée
could
better
giue
them
such
honour
as
vnto
so
good
knights
doth
appertaine
:
the
which
they
receiued
with
great
thanks
,
and
sent
him
word
that
they
did
kisse
his
Emperiall
hands
for
the
great
courtesie
shewed
vnto
them
.
When
that
the
king
was
departed
,
the
squires
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
damsels
,
did
arme
and
raise
vp
their
Tents
,
somwhat
what
aparted
from
the
tents
of
the
armie
,
the
which
béeing
done
and
made
close
in
such
sorte
that
they
coulde
not
bée
séene
and
knowen
,
they
supped
together
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
whereas
they
passed
a
good
parte
of
the
night
,
at
such
time
as
they
were
most
in
quiet
,
they
heard
a
greate
noise
and
tumult
in
the
Camp
,
as
shall
be
tolde
you
in
this
Hystorie
,
who
doth
leaue
them
at
this
present
,
for
to
tel
you
of
the
stout
Pagan
Bramarant
,
who
remained
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
&
of
other
things
that
happened
with
him
.
How
the
stout
Pagan
Bramarant
after
that
he
was
come
vnto
himselfe
,
returned
againe
to
seeke
the
knightes
,
and
what
hee
did
when
he
found
his
Father
dead
.
Chap.
34.
WIthin
a
little
while
after
that
the
foure
knightes
with
the
Princesse
was
departed
from
the
place
whereas
the
battaile
was
made
with
the
gran
Campion
,
Bramarant
who
was
astonied
,
was
come
againe
wholy
vnto
himselfe
,
&
finding
himselfe
alone
,
and
aparted
from
the
place
whereas
the
battaile
was
made
,
and
besides
,
that
he
himselfe
was
all
to
be
raied
with
bloud
that
gushed
out
at
his
nose
and
mouth
,
and
without
the
halfe
sword
the
which
remained
in
his
hand
(
for
that
it
was
fallen
away
)
the
fury
and
outragious
wrath
which
he
did
take
against
himselfe
was
such
(
considering
in
what
estate
hée
was
brought
)
that
many
times
he
would
haue
slaine
himselfe
,
the
which
he
would
haue
done
in
effect
,
his
desperation
was
such
,
to
see
that
one
alone
knight
should
bring
him
into
that
perplexitie
,
but
his
great
desire
was
such
,
for
to
bée
reuenged
for
the
same
,
that
hée
dyd
as
then
withdrawe
himselfe
from
the
dooing
thereof
,
presupposing
in
his
heart
for
to
make
the
cruellest
reuenge
that
euer
was
executed
,
and
with
that
rage
puffing
out
great
abundance
of
smoke
,
hée
went
vnto
a
mightie
Oake
,
and
renting
off
a
greate
branch
from
the
same
,
the
made
thereof
a
huge
and
knotti●
clubbe
,
and
taking
it
in
both
his
handes
h●●et
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
and
with
so
great
furie
that
it
séemed
a
whirle
winde
,
hée
returned
vnto
the
place
from
whence
hée
came
,
in
the
demaund
and
seeking
out
of
the
knightes
that
hadd●
made
battaile
with
him
,
swearing
〈◊〉
he
would
not
leaue
one
of
them
aliue
,
but
when
he
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
battaile
was
made
,
and
found
none
other
but
the
gran
Campion
his
Father
dead
,
lying
along
vppon
the
ground
all
to
bée
rayed
with
his
owne
bloud
,
there
was
no
comparison
to
bée
made
with
the
wrath
of
so
famished
a
Lion
,
neither
that
of
the
firce
Tyger
,
when
that
they
haue
lost
their
whelpes
,
as
vnto
the
furie
and
wrath
of
that
stout
and
diuellish
Pagan
,
when
that
he
sawe
his
Father
to
lie
in
that
sorte
dead
,
his
wrath
,
courage
,
and
furie
was
such
,
that
he
séemed
rather
to
bee
an
infernall
diuell
,
than
a
knight
,
&
he
might
haue
accounted
himselfe
vnhappie
,
that
should
haue
passed
by
him
at
that
present
,
for
at
that
time
he
would
haue
combatted
with
all
the
legio●s
of
infernall
diuells
,
and
not
finding
vppon
whom
he
might
execute
his
furious
wrath
,
he
lifte
vp
his
eies
vnto
heauen
,
and
sayde
thus
.
Oh
false
and
traiterous
Gods
,
enimies
vnto
my
generous
and
naturall
bloud
all
you
together
haue
beene
confederate
vnto
the
death
of
my
diuine
Father
,
come
downe
all
together
vpon
the
earth
with
all
the
power
of
your
impetuous
and
wonderfull
thunderings
and
lightnings
,
or
else
shewe
mée
some
waie
whereby
I
maye
ascend
into
the
celestiall
Regions
,
whereas
you
haue
your
habitations
and
dwelling
places
,
that
I
may
take
most
cruell
reuengement
vppon
you
for
the
death
of
the
Gran
Campion
my
Father
,
who
was
much
better
than
all
you
.
Descend
therefore
and
come
downe
O
yée
traiterous
and
false
dogges
,
and
haue
a
courage
to
come
before
my
presence
,
for
that
I
am
now
héere
alone
,
I
〈◊〉
that
it
is
a
great
shame
and
reproch
vnto
you
〈◊〉
you
dare
not
descend
vnto
one
alone
knight
.
Héere
I
doe
sweare
a●d
promise
you
,
that
if
you
dare
not
come
in
my
presence
,
neither
shew
me
which
waie
I
maye
ascend
into
the
heauens
,
that
I
will
neuer
take
anie
reste
till
such
time
as
I
haue
gone
throughout
all
the
Paganisme
,
and
destroyed
all
the
Idolles
and
Temples
that
be
dedicated
and
consecrated
vnto
you
,
neither
will
I
not
leaue
one
Pagan
aliue
,
that
will
not
renounce
and
denie
your
alse
and
deceiueable
lawe
,
and
I
will
make
them
all
to
turne
Christia●s
,
for
to
scorne
and
burne
your
Idolles
,
for
that
he
séemeth
to
be
a
better
God
than
all
you
,
that
giueth
so
great
strength
vnto
Christians
:
Oh
my
good
Father
Bradaman
,
who
is
hée
that
hath
slaine
you
,
and
so
cleere
deliuered
from
my
handes
?
Héere
I
doe
promise
you
neuer
to
pull
off
this
armour
from
my
backe
,
vntill
such
time
as
I
haue
torne
him
in
péeces
with
my
téeth
,
and
staunched
my
great
thirst
in
his
hot
bloud
.
But
oh
what
ill
fortune
and
mishap
is
this
of
mine
?
What
reuengement
may
Brainarant
take
,
although
he
destroie
the
whole
worlde
,
in
recompence
of
this
so
great
harme
and
iniurie
which
is
done
vnto
me
.
In
saying
these
and
many
other
wordes
this
furious
Pagan
did
alight
from
his
horse
,
and
tooke
the
broade
and
heauie
sword
of
his
Father
,
and
hung
it
at
his
girdle
,
and
mounted
againe
vpon
his
horse
,
determining
for
to
goe
and
séeke
those
knights
that
he
left
there
,
or
some
other
,
whereon
he
might
reuenge
his
furious
wrath
,
and
there
withall
hée
set
spurres
vnto
his
great
horse
,
and
lyke
vnto
a
diuell
he
made
him
a
runne
throughout
all
the
fieldes
with
so
great
furie
,
that
the
earth
séemed
to
tremble
vnder
him
.
At
this
time
it
was
darke
night
,
and
Rosicleer
was
within
the
Citie
,
and
the
other
in
their
Tents
at
their
ease
,
but
Bramarant
not
finding
or
méeting
anie
for
to
deteine
him
,
neuer
staied
till
hée
came
into
the
Campe
of
the
Christians
,
whereas
was
more
than
one
hundred
thousand
of
knights
,
and
as
many
footmen
,
some
lying
a
long
vppon
the
gréene
grasse
,
and
other
some
in
their
tents
and
pauillions
,
yet
was
there
in
the
garde
and
watch
of
the
hoast
sittie
thou●
〈◊〉
knights
and
so
many
footmen
.
But
when
this
surious
Pagan
sawe
so
many
before
him
,
vpon
whom
he
might
reuenge
his
outragious
wrath
,
with
more
arrogancie
,
pride
,
and
hardinesse
,
than
the
hungrie
and
rauening
Lion
,
that
thrusteth
her selfe
in
the
middest
amongest
the
féeble
and
timerous
flockes
,
hée
thrusteth
himselfe
in
the
middest
amongst
all
those
of
the
campe
,
charging
the
footmen
of
the
watch
with
terrible
and
cruell
blowes
,
killing
and
destroying
so
many
of
them
,
that
all
the
waie
whereas
he
went
was
full
of
dead
bodies
,
and
the
rest
who
were
greatlie
amazed
at
that
sodaine
and
mortall
mischiefe
,
beganne
to
crie
out
〈◊〉
call
to
armour
,
so
that
in
a
short
time
all
the
whole
〈◊〉
was
in
a●
vproare
,
and
thinking
that
they
were
assaulted
with
many
enimies
,
they
ranne
from
the
one
parte
vnto
the
other
for
to
aide
and
help
their
companions
and
friends
,
but
when
they
saw
there
were
no
enimies
,
they
were
worse
amazed
than
they
were
before
,
and
knew
not
what
to
make
o●
that
tumult
,
but
they
were
all
quicklie
put
out
of
doubt
,
and
cerlefied
what
it
was
,
for
that
this
fierce
and
diuellish
Pagan
not
staying
in
anie
one
place
,
〈◊〉
himselfe
from
one
part
vnto
the
other
all
to
be
embrued
in
bloud
,
and
according
vnto
the
great
slaughter
and
destruct
on
the
which
he
made
,
he
seemed
rather
to
bée
an
infernall
diuell
than
a
mortal
man
.
But
when
they
vnderstoode
and
knew
that
it
was
Bramarant
,
there
was
but
a
verie
sewe
of
them
which
with
feare
dyd
not
tremble
●or
to
sée
him
,
and
with
all
the
speede
that
euer
they
could
make
,
they
dyd
aparte
and
separate
themselues
from
him
,
thinking
that
thereby
they
shoulde
haue
their
liues
in
farre
greater
securitie
and
safetie
when
that
they
are
most
farthest
from
his
furious
and
mercilesse
handes
,
whereby
hée
hadd●
opportunitie
and
space
for
to
doe
what
〈◊〉
and
mischiefe
so
euer
it
pleased
him
,
and
none
so
bold
for
to
put
himself
before
him
,
whereby
to
make
anie
resistance
against
his
outragious
furie
,
except
it
were
alonelie
two
knightes
which
were
verie
couragious
and
vatiant
,
who
were
Captaines
ouer
the
rest
:
the
one
was
called
〈◊〉
Adriano
,
and
the
other
the
Earls
of
●edo
vassalles
vnto
the
Emperour
〈◊〉
,
who
offering
their
liues
,
as
they
were
bound
,
came
both
against
him
,
and
made
their
encounter
with
their
speares
in
such
sort
,
that
they
were
shéeuered
to
peeces
,
but
yet
their
appeared
no
more
mouing
in
him
,
than
if
they
had
encountred
against
a
strong
tower
,
〈◊〉
at
their
passing
by
he
stroke
one
of
them
such
a
blow
,
that
beeing
verie
fore
hurt
,
hée
ouerthrow
him
off
his
horse
vnto
the
ground
,
&
at
the
second
blowe
his
companion
was
constrained
to
beare
him
companie
.
This
béeing
past
,
the
stout
Pagan
put
himselfe
into
the
thickest
amongest
the
,
people
,
and
ouerthrew
all
that
euer
hée
met
before
him
,
and
neuer
stayed
vntill
hée
came
vnto
the
〈◊〉
whereas
;
hée
beganne
to
cut
the
cordes
and
tyonbers
wherewith
they
were
armed
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
in
a
little
space
he
ouerthrew
twentie
Tents
,
and
as
many
Pauillions
downe
vnto
the
ground
.
But
all
this
was
nothing
vnto
the
furious
and
outragious
wrath
of
Bramarant
,
who
thought
it
but
a
pastin●e
,
in
consideration
of
the
bloud
that
hée
determined
for
to
shedde
,
in
recompence
of
his
Father
death
.
There
were
some
in
the
Campe
which
séeing
the
great
destruction
that
hée
made
,
ranne
vnto
the
Citie
,
and
gaue
aduertisement
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
of
all
that
passed
,
who
out
of
hande
with
all
the
other
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
,
made
themselues
in
a
readinesse
for
to
goe
forth
and
make
resistance
against
that
proude
Pagan
.
At
this
time
for
that
the
great
vproare
and
tumnlt
that
was
in
the
Campe
was
verie
well
heard
by
the
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
who
were
somewhat
aparted
and
separated
from
the
rest
,
and
verie
desirous
for
to
know
what
it
should
bée
,
with
a
trice
they
caused
themselues
to
be
armed
with
their
rich
and
strong
armour
,
and
mounting
vpon
their
horses
,
they
rode
forthwith
towardes
the
place
whereas
they
heard
the
noise
of
the
battaile
,
but
when
they
came
whereas
Bramarant
was
,
they
were
wonderfullie
amazed
at
the
great
furie
&
wrath
of
the
Pagan
,
and
supposed
that
in
anie
humane
man
coulde
not
●ée
comprehended
such
excéeding
force
and
strength
,
and
hauing
greate
griefe
and
compassion
for
the
great
quantitie
of
blo●d
that
was
there
shed
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
〈…〉
,
and
putting
himselfe
before
him
,
he
said
〈…〉
and
r●uishing
furie
,
leaue
off
the
shedding
of
innocent
bloud
,
for
looke
what
thou
doest
heere
,
so
much
the
more
will
the
horrible
paines
bée
that
thy
soule
shall
indure
in
hell
.
The
night
was
verire
cléere
for
the
Moone
did
shine
and
was
at
the
full
,
and
by
the
light
thereof
this
proude
Pagan
dyd
know
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
by
his
armour
,
to
be
he
with
whom
he
did
combat
the
daie
before
,
who
with
as
greate
pleasure
as
euer
he
receiued
in
all
his
life
(
thinking
at
that
time
to
haue
opportunitie
to
bee
reuenged
of
that
was
past
)
sayd
.
Art
thou
by
fortune
that
knight
that
did
combat
with
mée
this
daie
past
?
I
am
the
same
,
sayde
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Then
the
Pagan
said
:
Heere
I
doe
tell
thee
,
that
all
the
whole
power
of
the
heauen
and
on
the
earth
,
are
not
sufficient
for
to
defend
th●e
from
my
fingers
.
And
in
saying
these
words
,
he
lift
vp
his
heuie
and
great
cutting
sword
,
&
with
it
in
both
his
hands
,
he
stroke
this
good
knight
such
a
blowe
vpon
his
helme
,
that
it
made
him
to
〈◊〉
his
head
downe
to
his
breast
,
and
the
fire
flew
out
thereof
,
as
out
of
a
〈◊〉
stone
,
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
required
him
that
blow
with
both
his
hands
,
and
stroke
him
such
a
one
vpon
,
his
shoulder
,
that
he
had
ouerthrowne
him
to
the
ground
,
if
he
had
not
imbraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
,
then
began
the
one
to
laie
vpon
the
other
verie
strenglie
,
with
so
great
charge
,
that
many
thimes
they
were
both
astonied
,
and
the
sparkes
of
fire
were
so
many
that
flew
out
of
their
armours
,
that
if
the
Moone
had
not
shined
so
bright
,
by
the
light
of
the
sparkes
,
they
might
haue
well
seene
how
to
combat
,
at
this
time
were
all
the
people
of
the
campe
round
about
them
for
to
sée
that
strong
and
well
fought
battayle
,
and
were
all
greatlie
amazed
at
the
high
bountie
&
strength
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
the
noise
was
so
great
the
which
they
made
with
their
terrible
blowes
,
that
it
was
as
well
heard
within
the
Citie
,
as
in
the
campe
whereas
they
did
combat
,
which
was
the
occasion
,
as
well
for
that
they
were
aduised
thereof
,
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
Roficleer
,
with
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
,
came
straight
waies
forth
of
the
Citie
,
and
with
great
hast
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
they
heard
the
great
noise
of
the
battaile
,
and
thether
whereas
the
most
people
were
gathered
together
,
and
when
they
came
thether
,
they
sawe
that
fierce
Pagan
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
how
they
behaued
themselues
in
their
battaile
,
and
by
reason
that
it
was
night
,
and
their
blowes
strong
and
great
wherewith
great
abundance
of
fire
flew
out
of
their
armours
,
it
was
a
strange
and
wonderfull
thing
to
beholde
,
so
that
the
Emperour
and
all
those
that
came
with
him
meruailed
greatlie
at
the
strong
and
mightie
force
of
them
both
.
Then
when
this
stout
Pagan
sawe
himselfe
compassed
rounde
about
with
so
many
people
,
and
knew
that
the
Emperour
and
all
the
rest
of
those
precious
and
worthie
knightes
that
came
with
him
were
there
present
,
he
sawe
that
as
then
it
was
verie
néedfull
for
him
to
vse
all
his
whole
force
&
strength
,
and
béeing
desirous
in
their
presence
to
shew
forth
all
his
greate
and
mightie
power
,
hée
charged
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
with
terrible
and
heauie
blowes
,
reuenging
and
blaspheming
against
himselfe
,
and
this
he
sayd
within
his
heart
.
Oh
Iupiter
,
if
it
bée
so
that
thou
art
he
that
doth
combat
with
mée
,
I
doe
desire
thée
to
tell
mée
,
for
that
if
thou
be
he
,
héere
I
doe
promise
to
acknowledge
thée
to
bée
a
God
,
and
I
will
honour
thée
as
thou
doest
deserue
,
and
I
doe
at
this
present
confesse
that
thy
power
is
great
.
And
when
hée
had
sayd
these
wordes
,
and
sawe
that
the
force
and
strength
of
his
aduersarie
dyd
still
increase
,
hée
was
verie
furious
and
wrathfull
against
himselfe
,
and
sayd
:
Oh
base
and
vile
knight
Bramarant
,
wherefore
shouldest
thou
acknowledge
him
to
be
a
God
,
although
he
were
the
same
Iupiter
,
hauing
force
and
strength
inough
,
not
onelie
for
to
defend
thy selfe
from
him
,
but
also
for
to
destroie
and
rase
out
all
those
false
and
trait●rous
gods
And
in
saying
these
wordes
his
wrath
and
furie
did
increase
,
and
he
charged
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
such
●ort
with
his
terrible
blowes
,
that
it
did
well
appeare
how
his
strength
was
augmented
.
But
then
his
aduersarie
séeing
himselfe
be●ore
his
Father
and
those
high
mightie
Princes
,
as
also
in
the
presence
of
his
mistres
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
who
did
beholde
him
,
he
was
so
angrie
and
wrathfull
,
that
there
was
nothing
that
did
abide
before
him
,
and
he
charged
this
stout
Pagan
with
such
furious
blowes
,
that
he
gaue
him
well
to
vnderstand
that
he
was
the
mightiest
and
strongest
knight
that
was
in
all
the
world
.
In
this
sort
did
these
two
make
their
combat
,
putting
great
admiration
in
all
those
that
did
beholde
them
.
Then
after
that
they
had
battailed
together
more
than
the
space
of
one
houre
,
this
furious
and
fierce
Pagan
.
sayd
within
himselfe
,
that
his
aduersa●●e
was
so
strong
and
furious
,
that
he
could
not
iudge
to
the
contrarie
but
that
he
must
néeds
be
some
infernal
diuell
,
or
that
Pluto
Prince
of
diuells
.
And
more
than
this
,
I
am
compassed
about
with
so
many
and
good
knights
,
that
when
so
euer
I
get
the
vietorie
of
this
battaile
,
I
shall
haue
inough
to
doe
with
them
,
therefore
it
shall
béee
better
for
me
(
séeing
that
I
get
no
honour
)
for
to
depart
.
And
in
saying
these
words
,
the
stout
Pagan
stretched
himself
vpon
his
stirops
all
that
euer
he
could
,
and
clasping
his
sword
fast
in
both
his
hands
,
g●ashing
his
téeth
one
against
another
,
he
stroke
so
strong
a
blow
at
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
it
had
bene
sufficient
to
haue
clouen
him
downe
vnto
the
wast
,
if
that
his
healme
had
béene
as
the
helmes
of
other
knights
,
but
the
finenesse
therof
,
with
the
inchanted
mixture
did
withstand
the
sharpe
edge
of
his
sword
,
in
such
sort
,
that
it
did
not
damage
anie
part
therof
,
but
yet
for
all
that
,
the
force
of
the
blow
was
such
,
that
hée
made
him
to
fal
forwards
,
&
with
his
head
to
strike
his
horse
a
great
blow
vpon
the
necke
,
and
againe
if
that
with
both
his
armes
he
had
not
embraced
his
horse
necke
,
of
force
hée
must
néedes
haue
fallen
vnto
the
ground
,
and
with
the
blow
he
was
so
amazed
and
astonied
,
that
hee
knew
not
whether
he
was
in
●heauen
or
vppon
the
earth
.
But
yet
this
stout
Pagan
had
not
bragged
nor
aduanced
himselfe
of
this
blow
if
that
he
had
〈◊〉
a
little
longer
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
straight
waies
againe
to
himselfe
,
and
setled
himselfe
in
his
sabbl
,
and
according
vnto
the
anger
and
wrath
the
which
he
had
,
it
could
not
be
otherwise
but
his
answere
to
bée
verie
perillons
,
but
hée
woulde
not
holde
the
same
,
for
that
he
hadde
not
so
soone
giuen
the
blowe
,
when
that
he
turned
his
horse
about
and
set
〈◊〉
vnto
his
sides
,
and
with
great
furie
he
put
himselfe
into
the
thickest
of
all
the
people
that
were
beholding
the
batta●le
,
and
although
they
were
verie
close
together
the
better
to
beholde
all
that
passed
,
he
verie
quicklie
made
a
great
&
brode
waie
,
what
with
killing
and
wounding
,
he
o●erthrew
many
with
his
sworde
,
and
with
an
infernall
force
he
thrust
himselfe
in
the
middest
of
all
the
campe
,
killing
and
flaying
all
that
euer
he
met
with
,
so
that
there
was
none
that
burst
come
before
him
,
and
although
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
&
all
th●●e
worthie
Princes
would
haue
followed
him
,
yet
by
anie
meanes
they
could
not
,
by
reason
of
the
great
number
of-people
that
were
ioyned
together
〈◊〉
to
sée
the
battaile
,
so
that
first
Bramarant
escaped
out
of
the
campe
:
but
when
he
sawe
himselfe
cléere
of
them
;
he
set
〈◊〉
vnto
his
horse
,
and
made
him
runne
like
a
whirle
winde
towards
his
own
campe
,
and
without
speaking
vnto
Emperour
Alycandro
he
went
vnto
his
owne
Tent
,
but
when
that
he
came
shether
,
calling
to
remembrance
how
that
he
left
the
Gran
Campion
his
Father
dead
,
the
anger
and
wrath
the
which
he
receiued
was
so
great
,
that
it
repented
and
grieued
him
verie
much
,
for
that
he
was
depar●e●
and
come
from
the
〈◊〉
,
&
being
verie
desirous
to
execute
his
irefull
wrath
vpon
ioine
thing
,
with
great
courage
he
went
out
of
his
〈◊〉
,
and
he
alone
went
through
all
the
whole
campe
of
the
Pagans
,
séeking
out
all
the
Idols
the
which
they
〈◊〉
,
and
all
that
euer
he
found
he
brake
them
to
péeces
,
and
〈◊〉
without
to
the
ground
.
Many
there
were
that
found
fault
in
〈…〉
him
verie
much
for
doing
that
〈◊〉
,
but
he
answered
them
no
other
thing
,
but
that
the
Gods
should
come
and
reuenge
themselues
if
that
they
were
agrieued
.
With
the
which
Bramarant
did
put
the
whole
campe
in
an
vprore
,
and
many
ripaired
vnto
the
place
whereas
he
went
,
and
although
he
did
rase
and
destroie
all
their
Idols
,
yet
there
was
not
one
that
was
so
hardie
or
durst
make
anie
defence
against
him
,
till
such
time
as
he
came
vnto
Meridian
,
who
entered
in
battaile
〈◊〉
him
,
and
would
haue
perseuered
in
the
〈…〉
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
accompanie●
with
all
those
kinges
and
mightie
princes
had
not
come
,
and
put
peace
betwéene
them
,
appeasing
the
great
furie
of
Bramarant
with
faire
wordes
.
Now
to
retourne
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
remained
in
the
Campe
of
the
Christians
,
the
Hystorie
saith
,
that
the
great
desire
which
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
Rosicleer
,
and
al
the
other
worthie
Princes
and
knights
had
,
for
to
know
who
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
,
and
his
companion
,
they
would
not
depart
from
them
till
such
time
as
the
Princesse
Claridiana
by
great
importunation
did
pul
off
her
helme
,
and
went
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
pulled
off
his
,
and
returned
vnto
the
Emperour
and
sayde
:
My
good
Lord
,
let
your
highnesse
behold
,
if
that
contentment
and
satisfaction
be
not
made
of
all
the
tumult
and
trauaile
which
hath
bene
caused
vnto
you
this
night
,
by
this
knight
and
that
Pagan
which
is
runne
awaie
.
But
when
that
the
Emperour
and
all
those
knights
did
know
them
,
it
cannot
be
rehearsed
the
great
ioy
,
mirth
,
and
pleasure
that
they
all
receiued
,
for
that
there
was
not
one
amongst
them
all
,
that
desired
anie
thing
so
much
as
to
heare
newes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Then
the
Emperour
sayde
:
Faire
and
worthie
Princesse
,
I
was
alwaies
fullie
perswaded
with
my selfe
,
that
your
soueraigne
highnesse
could
not
let
but
come
and
succour
vs
,
and
put
vs
all
in
great
securitie
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
for
to
kisse
the
handes
of
the
Emperour
,
who
receiued
him
with
that
great
loue
that
he
alwaies
bare
vnto
him
.
Then
straight
waies
came
forth
the
king
Florion
,
and
with
him
the
wise
Lyrgando
,
and
sayd
vnto
the
Emperor
.
Lord
,
let
your
highnesse
giue
vs
part
of
the
sight
of
this
knight
,
whom
we
haue
all
desired
so
much
to
know
,
and
therwith
they
embraced
him
many
times
,
as
they
that
entirelie
and
with
all
their
harts
did
loue
him
.
Then
those
good
and
perfect
friends
of
his
,
Claueryndo
and
Brandizel
,
and
that
good
Troyan
,
as
all
the
rest
of
the
oth●r
worthie
knights
.
It
cannot
be
rehearsed
the
great
mirth
that
all
of
them
receiued
,
as
also
the
worthie
things
that
passed
at
that
méeting
,
especiallie
with
the
roiall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
for
that
all
did
receiue
her
with
that
dutie
and
curtesie
as
was
due
vnto
so
high
a
Princesse
.
Then
was
there
complaints
made
,
for
that
they
till
that
time
woulde
not
make
themselues
to
be
knowen
,
as
also
for
that
they
were
absent
so
long
out
of
the
Countrie
.
Whereto
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
replied
,
requesting
them
to
let
that
demaund
passe
for
that
time
,
because
to
giue
them
to
vnderstand
thereof
,
it
will
aske
a
great
time
,
and
how
that
he
had
it
all
written
,
and
when
time
did
serue
he
woulde
shew
it
vnto
them
,
forsomuch
as
they
were
thinges
worthie
to
be
knowen
&
published
.
After
they
had
passed
these
and
many
other
things
betwixt
them
,
they
all
together
went
and
returned
into
the
Citie
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
went
before
to
carrie
newes
vnto
the
Empresse
Briana
of
the
comming
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
vnto
all
the
rest
of
the
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
that
were
there
with
her
,
who
were
meruailous
gladde
and
ioyfull
at
those
newes
,
but
most
especiallie
the
Empresse
,
who
alwayes
was
verie
sad
and
sorrowfull
,
after
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
departed
from
the
Court
.
Then
at
the
sodaine
noise
of
these
newes
,
great
preparation
was
made
,
and
an
innumerable
companie
of
Torches
was
light
,
that
it
séemed
in
the
Citie
to
be
noone
daie
,
and
all
the
stréetes
were
full
of
people
for
to
sée
their
good
Prince
,
then
at
their
entrie
into
the
emperiall
Pallace
,
the
Empresse
accompanied
with
all
those
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
,
came
forth
for
to
receiue
them
,
whereas
betwéene
the
Empresse
and
the
roiall
Princesse
Claridiana
passed
many
wordes
of
great
loue
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
went
for
to
kisse
the
hands
of
his
mother
,
who
did
embrace
him
,
and
kissed
him
on
the
chéeke
,
saying
:
Oh
my
welbelo●ed
sonne
,
for
this
your
comming
I
doe
giue
thankes
vnto
this
roiall
Princesse
,
and
if
it
had
not
bene
for
her
,
your
pardon
at
my
handes
had
failed
,
in
that
you
haue
forgotten
vs
so
long
time
.
These
and
many
other
wordes
of
great
loue
,
said
the
Empresse
vnto
her
sonne
,
and
vnto
the
Princesse
,
the
which
this
Hystorie
doth
let
passe
vntolde
for
to
auoide
tediousnesse
,
and
telleth
of
no
more
,
but
how
that
all
the
rest
of
the
night
that
remained
,
they
passed
awaie
with
mirth
and
pastimes
,
whereas
the
king
Florion
and
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
could
not
satisfie
themselues
in
beholding
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
meruailing
greatlie
to
sée
him
so
much
growen
,
as
well
in
bodie
as
in
the
rest
,
since
he
departed
from
them
out
of
Persia
,
and
héere
began
he
to
tell
of
many
things
that
passed
as
well
with
the
one
as
with
the
other
,
but
when
he
came
to
tell
of
the
solitarie
Ilande
,
and
of
all
that
passed
there
,
they
were
wonderfullie
amazed
,
and
eueuerie
one
did
double
their
good
willes
and
loue
which
before
they
b●re
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
At
this
time
came
the
king
Oliuerio
,
with
those
of
great
Britaine
,
&
those
worthie
knights
of
Spaine
for
to
speake
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
would
haue
kissed
the
kinges
handes
,
but
hée
would
not
consent
thervnto
,
but
said
:
Worthie
Prince
,
for
well
emploied
I
doe
account
my
comming
into
this
Countrie
,
for
that
I
haue
séene
the
magnanimitie
of
all
bountie
and
fairenesse
of
a
knight
,
comprehended
in
your
person
.
To
whom
the
knight
of
the
Sun
answered
:
My
good
Lord
,
how
&
in
what
sort
so
euer
I
am
,
I
am
readie
at
your
commandement
to
serue
you
,
in
as
ample
manner
as
my
brother
Rosicleer
,
for
that
it
is
our
dutie
vnto
your
highnesse
&
great
valour
.
In
like
sort
he
gaue
intertainment
vnto
all
the
rest
of
those
worthie
knights
,
who
meruailed
to
heare
tolde
the
great
wonders
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
also
to
sée
his
mightie
and
soueraigne
proportion
and
grace
,
with
the
great
maiestie
of
his
seuere
countenance
,
wherin
only
was
sufficient
for
to
publish
&
de●lare
who
he
was
,
so
that
after
〈…〉
departed
into
their
owne
Countries
they
had
inough
to
do
all
the
daies
of
their
life
,
for
to
tell
of
the
meruailous
and
strange
things
that
they
saw
in
Grecia
,
as
well
of
the
Grecian
knights
,
as
of
she
without
,
comparison
in
beautie
,
fairenesse
,
gentle
〈◊〉
,
and
grace
,
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
who
of
the
〈◊〉
,
and
of
the
Empresse
,
and
of
all
people
,
was
most
estéemed
,
and
had
in
reputation
aboue
all
the
rest
,
But
when
they
vnderstoode
that
they
hoped
shée
should
be
spouse
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
greater
loue
and
good
will
they
did
serue
and
honour
her
of
all
parties
,
and
she
likewise
did
the
like
vnto
them
,
and
was
not
a
little
amazed
at
the
great
beautie
of
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
who
séemed
vnto
them
to
be
one
of
the
fairest
Gentlewomen
that
euer
they
had
séene
,
next
vnto
the
worthie
and
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
who
séemed
to
them
to
bée
a
pearle
in
excellencie
.
So
from
that
time
forwards
the
two
Princesses
Oliuia
and
Claridiana
did
beare
good
will
and
loue
one
to
another
wonderfullie
,
so
that
with
great
reason
all
those
that
did
beholde
and
sée
them
together
might
saie
,
that
they
did
deserue
to
be
spouses
vnto
those
two
brethren
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
,
as
vnto
the
best
knights
in
all
the
world
.
Héere
was
giuen
to
vnderstand
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
all
that
had
passed
in
the
battailes
,
and
many
other
things
more
.
In
this
sort
they
passed
awaie
the
night
till
the
next
daie
,
in
the
which
happened
as
shall
be
declared
vnto
you
in
this
Chapter

WHen
the
next
daie
was
come
,
all
the
Gréekes
receiued
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
for
that
it
was
publikelie
knowen
vnto
them
the
c●mming
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
so
that
the
newes
thereof
was
carried
into
the
Campe
of
the
Pagans
,
which
was
sorrowful
newes
vnto
all
them
,
especiallie
when
they
vnderstoode
of
the
death
of
the
Gran
Campion
,
and
how
that
their
valiant
and
worthie
knightes
did
euerie
daie
decrease
and
waxe
fewer
in
number
on
their
part
,
and
how
that
on
the
part
of
the
Emperour
●rebatio
,
they
dyd
increase
eu●rie
daie
more
&
more
,
yet
was
all
this
nothing
in
comparison
vnto
that
griefe
which
the
fayre
Princesse
Lyndabrides
felt
,
when
she
vnderstoode
how
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
companie
with
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
was
come
into
Constantinople
,
vnderstanding
verilie
that
he
was
continuallie
with
her
in
presence●
all
the
time
that
he
was
absent
out
of
Grecia
,
and
how
that
he
had
taken
her
to
be
his
wife
.
It
cannot
bée
heere
rehearsed
the
grea●
griefe
and
exceeding
anguish
the
which
the
felt
within
her selfe
,
in
such
sort
,
that
many
times
shée
was
readie
to
die
therewith
,
and
putting
her selfe
in
a
closet
by
it selfe
in
her
tent
,
she
dyd
nothing
but
wéep
,
complaining
against
her selfe
and
fortune
,
and
after
that
many
contrarie
thoughtes
had
occupied
her
minde
and
senses
,
fighting
one
against
an
other
,
without
finding
anie
comfort
or
case
in
thinking
of
them
,
with
great
wrath
and
anguish
of
heart
shée
tooke
paper
and
Inke
,
and
with
her
owne
hand
shée
wrote
a
Letter
vnto
the
knight

the
contents
were
as
followeth
.
A
Letter
written
by
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
IF
the
diuine
Gods
and
my
cruell
destinie
had
permitted
,
that
as
I
am
constrained
to
loue
thée
,
I
might
I
〈◊〉
had
so
much
libertie
for
to
forget
thée
,
then
had
not
I
returned
againe
into
Grecia
,
neither
had
consented
that
the
Emperor
my
Father
with
so
infinite
a
number
of
people
had
enter●d
into
this
Countrie
for
to
be
reuenged
of
thée
,
for
that
it
had
béene
a
sufficient
reuengement
and
satisfaction
vnto
mée
,
for
to
leaue
thée
,
and
not
to
thinke
that
I
was
shée
that
was
of
thée
forgotten
,
but
to
leaue
thée
as
one
●nworthie
of
my
great
beautie
,
not
deseruing
to
inioy
my
emperiall
and
consecrated
estate
.
But
oh
my
euill
fortune
and
mishap
,
which
caused
mée
so
firmlie
to
loue
and
beare
thée
good
will
,
that
there
remaineth
no
part
within
mee
,
but
it
is
yeelded
to
bée
all
thine
,
neither
haue
I
so
much
power
as
for
to
put
thée
one
moment
out
of
my
remembrance
.
I
knowe
not
what
cruell
and
vniust
lawe
is
this
of
Loue
,
for
the
more
that
thou
diddest
vnderstand
and
know
that
I
did
loue
thée
,
thou
haddest
the
greater
libertie
for
to
forget
mée
,
and
the
more
that
thou
wert
cruell
and
forgetfull
of
mée
,
the
more
did
my
loue
and
good
will
increase
towardes
thée
.
I
am
aduertised
that
thou
and
the
Empresse
Claridiana
are
come
together
to
Constantinople
,
the
companie
of
so
worthie
a
Damsell
is
not
to
be
left
,
neither
is
there
anie
reason
to
speake
euill
of
her
,
but
for
her
that
doth
loue
thée
as
I
doe
,
it
cannot
bée
without
suspition
,
for
that
my
sorrowfull
heart
hath
deuined
it
,
and
mine
eyes
doth
now
sée
,
that
thou
doest
desire
her
to
bee
thy
wife
,
and
shée
is
not
displeased
therewith
,
but
when
that
I
doe
imagine
with
my selfe
what
thou
hast
b●ne
,
and
consider
lykewise
what
thou
nowe
art
,
I
cannot
thinke
anie
other
thing
,
but
that
there
are
two
knightes
called
of
the
Sunne
in
this
world
,
and
that
thou
art
another
,
and
not
the
same
that
was
wont
to
bee
all
at
my
commaundement
?
Is
it
possible
that
thou
art
hee
,
who
at
the
first
time
that
thou
diddest
beholde
mée
in
my
tri●mphant
Chariot
,
●ert
troubled
in
such
sort
,
that
if
thou
haddest
not
been
succoured
by
thy
Page
and
my
Damsell
,
th●u
haddest
follen
from
thy
horse
vnto
the
ground
?
Art
th●u
by
fortune
that
same
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
for
to
defende
my
iustice
,
thou
tookest
vpon
thée
that
strong
and
perillo●s
contention
with
the
Prince
Meridian
〈◊〉
brother
?
〈…〉
not
bee
that
thou
shouldest
bee
that
knight
of
〈◊〉
Chariot
,
that
diddest
so
long
time
defend
the
great
and
singular
beautie
of
the
Princesse
Lyndadrides
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
?
Of
truth
it
must
néedes
bée
some
other
,
that
did
shew
so
great
and
entire
loue
vnto
mée
,
and
so
absolutlie
dyd
publish
himselfe
to
bée
all
and
wh●lie
at
my
commaundement
.
What
is
become
of
those
amorous
and
swéete
wordes
that
thou
wert
wont
to
vtter
and
speak
vnto
mée
,
and
those
deepe
and
profound
sighes
,
with
the
which
thou
gauest
mee
to
vnderstand
the
greate
griefe
that
thou
receiuedst
for
my
loue
?
Is
it
possible
that
thou
hast
forgot
thy selfe
,
or
hast
thou
lost
thy
wits
and
memorie
?
With
what
great
ioy
and
contentment
thou
wentest
in
my
companie
towards
the
gran
Tartaria
,
hoping
at
thy
comming
thether
to
be
married
vnto
me
,
and
how
many
times
I
was
required
of
thée
in
that
iourney
?
Hast
thou
forgotten
that
for
the
celebrating
of
our
nuptials
,
thou
diddest
cause
in
the
gran
Cat●ya
to
bée
ioyned
together
all
the
kings
and
mightie
Lords
,
almost
all
the
Pagans
,
&
how
that
my
father
the
Emperour
Aly●andro
had
receiued
thée
for
his
sonne
,
and
all
his
subiects
for
their
Lorde
?
Of
truth
I
doe
verilie
beléeue
that
all
this
thou
hast
forgotten
,
and
doest
not
remember
anie
of
these
things
,
of
the
which
I
doe
not
greatlie
meruaile
,
for
that
hee
who
did
forget
the
lawe
of
the
diuine
Gods
,
and
doth
renounce
the
same
,
it
is
not
much
that
hée
doe
forget
and
denie
all
this
that
betwixt
him
and
mée
hath
passed
.
My
verie
heart
doth
cleaue
and
part
a
sunder
,
and
my
soule
is
readie
to
depart
my
bodie
with
great
griefe
,
when
that
I
doe
thinke
thereof
,
and
the
great
abundance
of
water
that
dailie
distilleth
from
my
eyes
,
doth
declare
and
testifie
that
it
cannot
indure
long
,
but
that
my
life
will
likewise
distill
and
consume
awaie
,
the
which
I
do
beséech
the
immortall
Gods
that
it
might
shortlie
come
to
passe
,
for
it
shall
bée
vnto
me
a
great
glorie
to
lacke
lyfe
,
rather
than
to
féele
such
excéeding
great
anguish
and
mortall
paine
.
I
woulde
write
vnto
thée
more
at
large
,
for
according
vnto
the
great
reason
the
which
I
haue
to
complaine
my selfe
of
〈◊〉
,
although
I
dydde
nothing
else
in
two
dayes
,
yet
should
I
haue
matter
inough
against
〈…〉
thinges
which
doth
withdrawe
my
handes
and
my
will
not
to
consent
that
I
shall
doe
it
:
the
one
is
,
that
they
who
haue
borne
thée
so
much
good
will
,
and
loued
thée
as
I
haue
done
,
it
is
not
good
for
to
inlarge
much
with
anger
,
for
that
vttering
with
passion
,
causeth
for
to
saie
that
,
which
after
doth
repent
them
:
the
other
,
for
whereas
doth
lack
loue
and
good
will
,
many
times
briefe
reasons
doth
séeme
large
and
prolixious
:
the
third
is
,
for
that
I
doe
know
that
all
whatsoeuer
I
shall
write
vnto
thée
,
thou
wilt
stoppe
thy
eares
thereat
,
so
that
all
my
writing
shall
bée
in
vaine
,
and
therefore
I
am
determined
to
bée
quiet
and
holde
my
peace
,
and
conclude
with
this
,
that
either
the
bones
of
this
sorrowfull
and
vnfortunate
Princesse
Lyndabrides
shall
remaine
in
Grecia
,
or
else
to
take
of
thée
cruell
reuengement
before
she
doth
depart
from
hence
,
and
séeing
that
thou
wert
so
hardie
and
bold
for
to
offend
the
diuine
maiestie
,
make
thy selfe
readie
for
to
receiue
the
paine
and
punishment
for
the
same
,
for
that
it
cannot
be
otherwise
,
but
that
the
immortall
Gods
will
haue
a
regard
vnto
this
my
great
iniurie
,
and
for
the
part
of
kindred
that
belongeth
vnto
them
,
will
punish
thée
conformable
vnto
thy
deserts
.
Lyndabrides
.
In
the
meane
time
that
this
faire
Princesse
was
writing
of
this
Letter
,
at
euerie
word
her
eyes
ranne
downe
with
water
,
and
her
anguish
and
griefe
which
shée
felt
was
so
great
,
that
many
times
before
shée
coulde
conclude
the
writing
of
her
Letter
,
she
fell
in
a
sound
.
In
the
end
when
it
was
concluded
,
she
called
a
damsell
vnto
her
,
(
in
whome
the
had
great
confidence
and
trust
)
and
gaue
vnto
her
the
Letter
,
saying
,
that
incontinent
she
should
depart
vnto
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
in
the
secretest
wise
that
possible
was
,
shée
should
giue
that
Letter
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
and
that
she
sh●●ld
not
returne
againe
in
anie
manner
of
wise
without
an
aunswere
vnto
the
same
.
Then
the
Damsell
who
was
wise
,
and
verie
well
vnderstoode
all●
her
secrets
did
their
promise
,
and
gaue
her
word
to
doe
and
accomplish
all
her
request
.
So
in
taking
her
leaue
of
her
,
she
depa●ted
towards
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
when
she
came
vnto
the
mightie
pallace
,
the
aske●
for
the
lodging
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
and
being
certefied
therof●
she
went
thether●
and
entering
in
,
she
found
him
not
there
,
for
that
he
was
gone
vnto
the
Emperour
,
but
yet
the
found
there
a
young
man
,
by
whom
she
sent
him
word
that
there
was
a
damsell
tarrying
for
him
at
his
lodging
,
who
bringeth
vnto
him
a
message
.
He
then
so
soone
as
he
heard
thereof
,
did
take
his
〈◊〉
of
the
Emperour
and
departed
with
the
young
man
,
but
when
he
came
whereas
the
damsell
did
abide
his
comming
,
he
was
greatly
amazed
to
see
her
,
for
that
by
and
by
he
knew
her
to
be
one
belonging
vnto
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
wherewithall
his
hart
seemed
for
to
turne
vpside
●●wne
within
his
breast
,
according
vnto
the
great
alteration
that
he
felt
within
himselfe
,
but
hee
was
troubled
a
great
deale
m●re
when
that
the
damsell
deliuered
the
Letter
,
and
said
that
it
came
from
her
Ladie
&
Mistres
,
and
being
in
a
great
confusion
,
with
a
pale
and
wan
colour
he
receiued
the
Letter
,
&
opening
it
he
read
the
whole
contents
thereof
.
In
the
meane
time
that
he
was
reading
the
same
,
the
damsel
that
brought
it
di●
verie
much
behold
him
,
for
so
she
was
commanded
by
her
Ladie
,
to
see
that
is
by
〈◊〉
outward
semblance
he
made
anie
signe
of
sorrow
,
at
which
time
all
his
whole
members
shaked
,
by
the
which
the
damsell
did
verie
well
vnderstand
that
he
was
not
a
little
troubled
,
in
the
concluding
and
reading
of
the
same
,
for
that
his
eyes
were
still
full
of
teares
,
with
great
pittie
,
which
hée
conceiued
by
the
wordes
of
that
Letter
,
and
hée
who
had
great
and
force
,
courage
for
to
cumbat
with
the
most
furious
,
fierce
,
and
brauest
knightes
and
gyantes
in
all
the
worlde
,
had
not
now
anie
heart
for
to
dissemble
the
greate
p●ine
and
sorrowe
manifested
by
that
Letter
,
that
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
receiued
.
Then
after
a
while
that
he
had
studied
with
himselfe
what
was
best
to
bee
done
,
〈◊〉
straight
wayes
tooke
paper
and
inke
,
and
●orthwith
wrote
her
a
Letter
in
answere
vnto
that
which
he
receiued
,
the
which
being
concluded
,
he
gaue
it
vnto
the
damsell
&
sayd
,
that
in
Gods
name
she
might
returne
againe
vnto
her
mistres
,
although
before
she
departed
he
demanded
many
questions
of
her
touching
her
estate
,
receiuing
great
pleasure
to
be
certefied
of
the
same
,
as
he
who
sometimes
did
loue
her
aboue
all
things
in
the
world
,
and
as
yet
he
could
not
so
perfectlie
cléere
himselfe
from
her
,
but
there
must
néeds
remain
in
his
heart
some
sparkes
of
that
amorous
fire
before
past
,
the
which
could
not
but
many
times
trouble
his
conscience
.
and
although
the
roiall
Princesse
Claridiana
in
beautie
and
worthinesse
was
without
comparison
,
yet
was
that
precious
Princesse
Lyndabrides
so
faire
and
gratious
,
that
there
was
no
per●on
in
all
the
whole
world
but
would
haue
bene
in
loue
with
her
,
in
especiall
that
continuall
and
long
conuersation
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
with
her
,
did
worke
so
much
in
effect
,
that
what
with
his
procurement
,
as
also
with
the
great
maiestie
wherewith
shee
dyd
alwaies
defend
her
honestie
and
purenesse
,
was
not
of
so
small
force
,
but
was
sufficient
of
it selfe
to
worke
so
great
effect
in
him
,
that
he
could
not
by
anie
meanes
wholie
roote
out
the
great
loue
the
which
he
receiued
in
his
heart
.
Thus
when
the
Damsell
was
diparted
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
returned
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
Emperour
●rebatio
was
,
for
that
with
the
presence
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
he
might
e●●inguish
those
firie
flames
which
the
remembrance
of
the
Princesse
dyd
cause
desire
for
to
kindle
within
him
,
the
which
did
assure
him
in
all
pointes
,
for
that
in
her
presence
there
was
not
anie
one
so
much
to
be
desired
as
the
royall
princesse
Clarid●ana
,
because
shée
had
so
great
exquisitenesse
and
bountie
,
that
shée
séemed
amongest
all
the
whole
companie
of
the
other
Ladies
and
Damsells
,
as
doth
the
fragrant
Rose
amongest
the
other
small
flowers
.
When
that
the
Damsell
was
returned
into
the
Campe
,
shée
straight
wayes
went
vnto
her
mistres
,
who
taking
her
by
the
hand
,
entered
into
her
Closet
,
with
great
abundance
of
teares
and
profound
sighes
,
(
before
that
she
read
the
Letter
)
the
●●ire
Princesse
dyd
aske
the
damsell
where
and
in
what
place
she
did
finde
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
whether
he
was
with
Claridian
,
or
whether
hée
made
a●ie
token
,
〈◊〉
,
or
alteration
,
when
that
he
knew
her
,
and
receiued
the
Letter
.
Likewise
when
that
he
read
it
,
if
his
countenance●
dyd
continue
,
or
altered
in
anie
point
.
These
and
many
other
perticular
things
she
did
aske
and
demand
of
her
Damsell
,
which
were
caused
by
the
hot
burning
loue
that
did
molest
her
minde
.
Unto
all
the
which
her
Damsell
did
make
her
answere
,
and
gaue
her
aduertisement
of
all
that
she
had
séene
in
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Which
was
not
vnto
her
small
contentment
and
ioy
,
to
heare
how
that
he
was
troubled
in
mind
with
the
re●ding
of
her
Letter
.
So
that
such
like
comfor●s
(
although
they
be
small
remedies
vnto
●●ue
louers
)
yet
for
all
that
they
be
great
ease
vnto
amorous
passions
,
though
in
the
end
it
be
occasion
of
farther
heate
.
Thus
after
a
while
that
they
had
passed
the
time
in
the
demau●ds
,
the
●aire
princesse
would
reade
the
Letter
,
but
she
was
so
troubled
to
thinke
what
should
come
written
therein
,
that
she
almost
wanted
courage
and
heart
for
to
open
it
,
but
yet
in
the
end
with
●r●at
alte●ation
of
colour
in
her
face
,
she
did
open
it
,
which
sayd
as
heereafter
followeth
.
A
Letter
of
the
knight
●f
the
Sunne
sent
to
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
.
SOueraigne
Princesse
of
Tar●●ria
,
by
one
of
your
damsels
I
receiued
a
Letter
of
yours
,
with
the
which
is
that
I
could
make
manifest
by
wordes
all
that
I
felt
at
my
hart
,
I
doe
thinke
verilie
that
you
woulde
holde
your selfe
for
satisfied
,
and
not
to
desire
to
haue
of
me
more
reuenge
,
for
that
you
see
my
whole
hart
burne
in
bright
flames
,
and
hath
not
so
much
libertie
as
to
quench
one
sparke
of
that
fire
.
Faire
princesse
,
do
you
not
beléeue
that
the
loue
which
you
saie
I
was
wont
to
beare
vnto
you
,
with
the
great
solempnitie
of
teares
,
and
profound
sighes
published
,
is
forgotten
.
For
héere
I
giue
you
to
vnderstand
that
it
hath
hetherto
indured
,
and
shall
indure
so-long
as
life
doth
last
,
for
that
it
was
in
such
sorte
rooted
within
my
heart
,
that
first
it
shall
consume
into
dust
and
ashes
,
before
the
rootes
thereof
bée
pulled
cleane
out
.
I
am
hee
that
I
was
wont
to
be
,
and
in
no
point
altered
nor
changed
vnto
that
I
haue
béene
before
nowe
,
and
if
you
saie
that
before
I
was
yours
,
so
I
will
now
bée
yours
,
and
yours
all
the
daies
of
my
life
,
and
you
haue
no
reason
to
saie
that
there
is
in
the
world
two
knights
of
my
name
,
if
it
were
so
,
yet
I
am
he
alone
that
doth
loue
you
,
and
first
I
wil
consent
to
death
,
rather
than
anie
héerein
should
beare
me
companie
.
You
doe
saie
,
that
how
is
it
possible
that
I
should
be
he
that
was
so
dismaid-the
first
time
that
I
saw
you
in
the
triumphant
Chariot
.
If
it
were
a
thing
that
you
might
sée
and
beholde
what
I
felte
,
and
the
greate
alteration
of
my
heart
at
such
time
as
I
sawe
your
Damsell
,
onelie
for
to
know
the
occasion
of
her
comming
:
with
greater
reason
you
might
saie
,
that
you
shoulde
sée
me
in
a
greater
confusi●n
if
you
sawe
mée
now
in
your
presence
.
And
whereas
you
doe
saie
that
I
had
battaile
with
the
Prince
Meridian
in
the
defence
of
your
iustice
,
I
am
now
more
readier
in
that
quarell
to
combat
with
all
that
are
in
the
world
,
and
first
I
wil
consent
to
bee
hewed
all
to
péeces
,
than
in
one-point
to
consent
vnto
your
iniurie
,
so
that
in
conclusion
,
high
&
mightie
Princesse
,
in
all
things
that
shall
accomplish
your
seruice
,
my
good
will
at
this
time
is
more
prompt
than
heeretofore
it
hath
béene
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
you
may
estéeme
him
as
wholie
your
owne
,
sauing
one
thing
which
I
doe
reserue
from
your
subiection
,
which
is
my
soule
,
for
that
is
immortall
,
and
the
soueraigne
creator
did
create
it
vnto
his
owne
similitude
and
likenesse
,
the
which
shall
loose
his
whole
price
and
estate
,
if
I
doe
yéeld
it
to
be
yours
,
for
to
obey
your
commandement
,
and
therin
I
shall
offend
the
diuine
maies●ie
,
&
what
grea●er
offence
may
I
commit
,
than
for
to
ioyne
with
you
in
matrimonie
,
you
being
a
Gentile
,
and
I
a
Christian.
And
againe
,
you
that
doe
presume
to
descend
from
the
high
originall
of
the
high
G●ds
,
vnto
whome
you
shall
doe
great
iniurie
,
if
that
you
doe
ioyne
issue
and
bloud
with
a
knght
that
is
contrarie
vnto
your
lawe
and
profession
,
I
doe
beléeue
that
you
cannot
long
time
suffer
mée
to
bée
your
husband
,
neither
your
vassalls
and
subiects
obey
mée
for
their
Lorde
,
for
either
I
shall
bée
constrained
for
to
turne
mée
vnto
your
lawe
,
or
else
you
and
all
yours
vnto
my
posession
.
All
this
I
had
forgotten
when
that
(
as
you
doe
saie
)
we
trauailed
together
towards
the
gran
Cataia
,
and
nothing
was
the
occasion
of
this
forgetfulnesse
,
but
that
it
was
so
little
past
that
I
became
a
Christian
,
that
as
then
my
soule
was
not
well
awaked
out
of
that
obscure
and
darke
lawe
in
the
which
I
was
deceiued
,
but
afterwardes
I
called
my selfe
to
remembraunce
,
and
I
giue
infinite
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
,
that
he
hath
giuen
mée
such
inspiration
,
that
if
it
had
not
come
from
him
(
according
vnto
the
great
loue
which
he
bore
vnto
mee
)
I
had
not
ben
able
for
to
haue
cléered
my selfe
from
you
,
but
that
néedes
I
must
haue
fallen
into
that
perillous
snare
.
And
by
that
I
doe
knowe
that
the
vniuersall
creatour
of
all
things
,
of
his
owne
handes
created
with
so
grea●e
ex●ellencie
the
royall
Princesse
Clarid●ana
,
who
for
that
shee
is
a
myrrour
,
without
offending
of
the
diuine
maiestie
,
I
may
receiue
her
for
my
spouse
,
and
with
the
sheelde
of
her
beautie
I
will
labour
for
to
defend
the
encounters
of
your
greate
beautie
,
the
which
is
of
so
great
sorce
and
strength
,
that
if
I
had
not
so
excellent
a
sheeld
,
there
were
not
in
me
sufficient
force
for
to
make
resistance
,
but
that
néedes
I
must
bée
ouercome
.
Therefore
soueraigne
and
worthie
Princesse
,
haue
patience
,
and
thinke
(
because
fortune
hath
bene
so
aduerse
and
contrarie
vnto
our
desires
,
and
that
our
destinies
woulde
not
permit
the
same
)
that
the
diuine
prouidence
was
not
serued
therein
,
and
as
a
thing
that
was
neither
conuenient
for
you
nor
mée
,
hée
woulde
not
consent
nor
giue
that
in
this
our
purpose
our
willes
shoulde
bée
accomplished
.
You
saie
that
you
write
to
me
briefe
,
for
that
you
will
not
write
to
me
with
anger
,
wherein
I
receiue
great
curtesie
,
for
that
being
as
I
am
,
so
much
yours
,
it
should
grieue
mée
verie
much
that
you
should
speake
against
me
wordes
of
greate
cholar
.
And
in
that
which
you
doe
saie
,
that
whereas
loue
doth
lack
,
your
brief
reasons
wil
séeme
vnto
me
prolixious
,
and
that
you
knowe
to
all
thinges
I
will
make
my
eares
deafe
,
if
it
were
a
thing
possible
without
preiudiee
for
to
open
these
my
entrailes
,
for
to
shew
vnto
you
my
heart
,
wherein
you
might
plainlie
sée
,
how
you
are
deceiued
,
for
that
there
is
nothing
in
all
the
world
that
doth
delight
mée
more
than
in
the
receit
of
your
Letter
,
and
in
reading
of
the
same
,
so
that
if
it
were
a
thing
possible
,
I
would
it
should
neuer
conclude
.
You
doe
conclude
in
your
Letter
,
that
you
neuer
will
depart
out
of
Crecia
,
till
such
time
as
you
haue
of
mée
reuengement
.
I
would
verie
faine
know
in
what
order
you
would
haue
it
,
because
I
would
excute
it
my selfe
,
and
if
it
bée
your
pleasure
and
commandement
that
I
put
my self
in
your
power
,
giue
me
straight
waies
to
vnderstand
thereof
,
and
I
will
be
as
readie
to
obey
,
as
you
for
to
command
mée
,
and
I
do
not
much
estéeme
that
loue
,
if
you
thinke
that
with
my
death
you
should
remaine
satisfied
,
with
the
which
I
conclude
,
kissing
your
emperiall
hands
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne

In
the
meane
time
that
this
faire
Princesse
was
reading
the
Letter
,
she
shed
so
many
teares
from
her
faire
eies
,
that
she
was
all
to
be
sprinkled
therwith
,
and
when
the
had
concluded
the
reading
thereof
,
all
her
members
failed
her
,
and
her
heart
was
ouercome
,
&
her
amorous
passions
were
more
kindled
with
the
louing
wordes
that
he
wrote
vnto
her
.
But
when
she
saw
cléerelie
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
did
discouer
the
loue
that
he
bare
vnto
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
and
that
her
suspition
fell
out
to
be
true
,
she
remained
as
one
dead
,
and
knew
not
what
to
saie
nor
to
doe
,
but
to
complaine
of
her
Gods
and
of
fortune
,
and
it
is
to
beléeued
,
that
her
lyfe
had
not
endured
long
,
if
that
shée
had
not
béene
wonderfullie
succoured
,
as
shal
bée
declared
vnto
you
héereafter
in
this
Hystorie
.
How
the
stout
and
furious
Pagan
Bramarant
ouerthrew
and
destroyed
all
the
Idolls
in
the
Campe
,
and
how
the
Emperour
Alycandro
for
to
appeale
him
,
caused
to
be
brought
with
great
honor
the
bodie
of
the
gran
Campion
that
was
in
the
wildemesse
of
Grecia
,

happened

and

this
.
Chap.
36.
THe
great
wrath
and
furie
was
so
excéeding
of
that
proude
and
barbarous
sonne
of
the
gran
Campion
for
the
death
of
his
Father
,
that
there
was
not
roome
inough
for
him
in
all
that
mightie
campe
of
the
Pagans
,
but
he
ranne
vp
and
downe
from
one
place
to
another
,
like
vnto
a
mad
man
,
or
one
from
himselfe
,
crying
out
,
making
a
great
and
terrible
noise
,
casting
vp
his
firie
eies
vnto
the
heauens
,
blaspheming
and
de●ieng
his
Gods
,
vttering
wordes
of
great
reproch
and
anger
,
thinking
thereby
to
prouoke
them
vnto
wrath
,
to
cause
them
to
descende
vpon
the
earth
against
him
,
where
he
might
execute
his
wrath
vpon
them
.
As
he
was
wholie
ignorant
of
the
immortall
paines
,
which
these
false
Gods
(
in
whom
the
Pagans
do
beleeue
and
worship
)
hath
in
hell
,
and
for
that
in
no
place
he
could
take
anie
rest
or
be
in
quiet
,
hée
went
into
all
the
Tents
of
the
Campe
,
whereas
he
found
many
Idolles
verie
rich
and
of
great
price
,
whome
hée
ouerthrew
and
cut
in
peeces
with
his
sword
,
and
left
not
one
standing
,
neither
was
,
there
anie
king
or
knight
of
so
great
hardinesse
,
that
durst
make
anie
resistance
against
him
,
but
onelie
those
two
mightie
and
valiant
knightes
,
the
Prince
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
who
with
a
verie
good
will
woulde
haue
baunted
the
pride
of
that
proude
and
insolent
Pagan
,
if
the
Emperour
had
not
disturbed
them
,
in
requesting
them
not
to
returne
to
renue
anie
more
their
contention
and
anger
,
so
that
finding
not
one
that
durst
make
anie
resistance
against
him
,
the
pride
of
this
furious
and
fierce
Pagan
Bramarant
encreased
so
much
,
that
he
neuer
stayed
till
that
hée
came
into
the
Emperiall
Tent
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
within
the
which
was
a
verie
greate
and
rich
stature
of
golde
full
of
precious
stones
,
dedicated
vnto
the
God
Iupiter
,
the
which
was
made
by
the
diuells
arte
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
Diuell
was
within
the
same
,
and
spake
by
the
mouth
of
that
Idoll
,
deceiuing
those
wicked
and
miserable
Pagans
,
who
with
great
reuerence
and
dutie
did
prostrate
themselues
vnto
the
ground
and
worshipped
him
,
it
was
set
vppon
a
verie
rich
Alter
,
whereas
none
durst
be
so
bold
as
come
nigh
vnto
it
,
except
certaine
Priestes
,
which
were
consecrated
for
to
doe
sacrifice
vnto
him
dailie
.
Besides
this
,
the
Emperour
Alycandro
had
in
many
places
round
about
his
great
Tent
many
other
Idolles
,
whome
hée
dyd
worship
and
all
his
subiects
,
and
being
that
daie
in
his
great
Tent
,
accompanied
with
all
those
mightie
kings
and
Lords
of
his
whole
Campe
,
ordaining
for
to
giue
battaile
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
this
mightie
Pagan
armed
with
his
strong
armour
,
mounted
vpon
his
mightie
horse
,
entered
into
the
Tent
,
and
when
hée
sawe
the
stature
of
the
God
Iupiter
vppon
the
Alter
,
as
soone
as
he
was
entered
in
,
hée
went
towards
the
same
,
and
in
drawing
out
his
sword
hée
sayd
.
Now
will
I
sée
if
the
power
of
that
Christian
Knight
bée
more
than
thine
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
he
stroke
him
such
a
right
downe
blowe
,
that
although
it
were
made
of
massie
golde
,
yet
hée
cloue
it
downe
to
his
breast
,
and
falling
one
peece
from
another
,
there
was
sodainlie
hearde
a
great
and
timerous
thunder
clappe
,
wherewith
it
séemed
that
the
heauens
woulde
haue
rent
a
sunder
,
and
in
the
middest
of
the
great
Tent
was
séene
a
vestigell
or
spirite
so
dreadfull
and
horrible
to
beholde
,
that
it
séemed
to
bée
some
infernall
vision
,
casting
out
fire
at
his
nose
and
eyes
,
and
in
both
his
handes
he
had
a
great
mase
of
yron
,
with
the
which
he
made
a
shewe
as
though
he
would
haue
stroken
Bramarant
vpon
the
head
,
as
those
which
had
no
more
power
but
onelie
for
to
put
in
feare
with
those
his
visages
and
semblances
,
so
that
alone
with
the
sight
of
him
there
was
not
one
in
all
that
Tent
but
dyd
tremble
ansd
was
afraide
,
thinking
verilie
that
they
should
be
destroied
for
that
which
Bramarant
had
done
.
But
this
proude
Barbarian
who
feared
not
all
that
infernall
companie
,
with
no
more
dreade
than
if
it
had
bene
a
weake
and
féeble
damsell
,
he
did
abide
his
comming
,
and
as
this
vestigell
or
diuell
did
make
a
profer
to
strike
him
with
his
mase
,
the
Pagan
stroke
a
terrible
blow
at
him
with
his
sword
,
and
thinking
to
haue
clouen
him
a
sunder
in
the
middest
,
hee
stroke
at
nothing
but
at
the
aire
,
for
that
the
vestigell
as
a
fancie
consumed
awaie
,
and
was
no
more
séene
in
the
Tent.
But
the
Emperour
and
all
those
that
were
with
him
were
verie
sorrie
for
that
which
Bramarant
had
done
,
&
mistrusted
that
there
would
happen
vnto
them
great
euill
and
misfortune
for
the
same
,
yet
for
all
that
there
was
not
one
amongest
them
all
that
durst
retourne
against
him
in
the
quarrell
of
their
Gods
,
but
one
Meridian
and
Brandmardo
,
who
because
they
would
not
anger
the
Emperour
were
in
quiet
,
wherewith
Bramarant
went
out
of
the
tent
with
great
furie
.
Then
the
Emperour
thought
within
himselfe
that
it
were
good
(
somwhat
to
appease
his
furie
,
)
for
to
send
for
the
bodie
of
the
gran
Campion
,
which
laie
dead
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
and
to
burie
him
with
that
honor
and
solempnitie
as
is
vsed
in
their
Countrie
:
euen
so
as
he
thought
he
put
it
in
vre
,
and
straight
waies
commaunded
that
thirtie
crowned
kings
,
the
most
principallest
of
all
the
armie
,
should
put
on
mourning
apparell
,
and
cause
him
to
be
laide
vpon
a
béere
,
and
so
brought
vnto
the
Campe
,
and
commanded
to
accompanie
them
ten
thousand
armed
knightes
,
and
all
those
Gyants
that
came
from
the
Orientall
Ilands
,
that
were
subiect
vnto
Bramarant
shoulde
goe
with
them
.
And
in
this
sorte
these
thirtie
kings
with
all
their
companie
departed
,
according
vnto
the
vse
and
manner
of
their
Countrie
,
which
was
a
strange
thing
to
sée
,
&
when
they
came
into
the
wildernes
,
they
straight
waies
found
the
bodie
of
the
gran
Campion
,
which
was
begun
to
bée
eaten
with
the
fowles
,
and
after
that
they
all
for
a
while
had
made
great
lamentation
and
bewailed
his
death
,
those
kings
(
for
to
doe
him
more
honour
)
did
balme
him
,
and
then
laid
him
vpon
a
Béere
which
they
brought
with
them
,
that
was
verie
rich
,
and
couered
with
a
faire
cloth
of
Tissue
,
and
so
carried
him
towards
the
Campe
,
whereas
he
was
receiued
with
great
honour
,
by
the
Emperour
and
all
those
mightie
Princes
that
were
with
him
,
who
went
forth
and
met
with
them
a
good
mile
off
.
The
manner
which
they
vsed
for
to
giue
his
sepulchre
with
more
honour
(
according
vnto
the
vse
of
their
Countrie
)
was
,
that
they
laide
the
dead
corse
vpon
a
verie
broade
and
smooth
marble
stone
all
white
,
whereas
they
burned
and
consumed
the
bodie
all
to
ashes
,
and
in
the
meane
time
that
hée
was
a
burning
,
all
the
principallest
of
the
whole
armie
,
were
placed
round
about
the
fire
,
all
couered
with
robes
of
Sackcloth
,
so
long
,
that
it
trailed
vppon
the
ground
,
and
made
great
sorrow
and
lamentation
,
and
praied
vnto
their
Gods
to
receiue
him
into
their
companie
,
in
which
time
all
the
praiers
which
his
sonne
Bramarant
made
,
was
no
other
but
blaspheming
against
all
the
Elements
,
and
against
nature
,
for
that
they
had
power
for
to
consume
and
burne
the
bodie
of
the
Gran
Campion
his
Father
.
Thus
when
that
the
bodie
was
all
consuned
and
burned
,
the
ashes
remaining
vpon
the
Marble
stone
,
the
which
was
taken
and
put
in
verie
rich
vessells
of
golde
,
wherevnto
they
put
water
and
stirred
it
together
,
and
put
the
vessells
vpon
a
faire
Table
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alycandro
(
the
more
to
honour
the
Gran
Campion
)
beganne
first
for
to
drinke
of
the
same
mixture
,
and
after
him
Bramarant
,
and
after
them
in
order
all
those
Kings
,
Princes
,
and
worthie
Knightes
that
were
in
the
Campe
,
till
such
time
as
they
left
no
mention
of
the
water
and
ashes
,
so
the
mightiest
Lords
that
were
in
all
the
Paganisine
,
made
their
bodies
the
sepulchre
of
that
mighty
Pagan
,
and
this
they
had
amongst
them
for
the
most
honorablest
burying
that
could
be
.
With
these
and
many
other
thinges
moe
which
the
Emperour
Alycandro
commaunded
to
bee
done
for
the
Gran
Campion
,
making
great
lamentation
for
his
death
,
Bramarant
was
somewhat
appeased
,
and
lost
great
part
of
that
outragious
furie
and
wrath
which
he
had
conceiued
,
and
vnderstoode
and
procured
no
other
thing
but
onelie
how
and
by
what
meanes
he
might
make
terrible
and
cruell
reuengement
for
the
death
of
his
welbeloued
Father
.
Then
after
certaine
daies
were
past
of
the
truce
which
was
taken
with
the
Gréekes
,
they
beganne
of
all
partes
to
prepare
and
make
themselues
in
a
readinesse
against
the
battaile
that
was
determined
,
and
was
thought
to
be
of
both
partes
the
brauest
and
most
cruellest
and
bloudie
that
euer
was
séene
vpon
the
earth
,
for
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
had
commaunded
,
that
the
first
daie
that
the
Gréekes
should
come
forth
for
to
giue
them
battaile
,
that
all
the
people
of
their
Campe
shoulde
procéede
against
them
,
for
that
they
wold
at
once
conclude
that
enterprise
,
and
not
to
leaue
their
aduersaries
anie
force
and
strength
at
all
,
for
to
return
againe
vnto
the
fielde
,
for
although
there
were
many
battailes
betwixt
them
,
as
the
Hystorie
hath
shewed
you
,
yet
there
went
not
forth
the
third
parte
of
the
people
that
was
there
with
them
which
were
so
many
in
number
,
that
there
might
well
bée
made
of
them
thrée
mightie
armies
,
and
of
truth
there
was
neuer
séene
in
all
Asia
nor
buropa
so
many
and
so
valyant
,
stout
,
and
worthie
knightes
gathered
together
,
as
were
at
that
present
in
the
fields
of
Constantinople
.
Now
let
vs
leaue
the
Pagans
in
readinesse
for
the
battaile
to
come
,
and
let
vs
veturne
vnto
the
Gréeks
that
were
in
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
.

the
Greekes
did

the
king
Liseo
and

faire
Queene
Radamira
came
to
aide

Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
what
happened
besides

Chap.
37.
IT
was
a
thing
of
great
wonder
vnto
the
Gréekes
,
to
sée
themselues
closed
within
the
Citie
,
and
so
compassed
about
in
their
owne
fields
,
for
their
enimies
were
so
great
and
infinit
a
number
of
Pagans
,
that
it
might
well
be
sayd
,
that
they
had
against
them
all
the
whole
force
of
the
world
,
for
there
were
in
the
field
an
infinite
number
of
barbarous
people
,
of
different
and
diuerse
Nations
,
and
the
most
part
proude
and
terrible
Gyants
,
that
the
like
were
neuer
seene
in
all
the
world
,
but
God
of
his
goodnesse
created
such
heartes
in
that
mightie
Emperour
Trebatio
and
in
his
worthie
proicnie
,
as
also
in
those
high
Princes
,
and
stout
,
worthie
,
&
valiant
knights
that
were
in
his
companie
,
that
not
onelie
they
were
without
all
feare
and
dreade
,
but
also
had
great
force
and
courage
for
to
destroie
and
ouercome
all
those
that
had
compassed
them
about
,
and
there
were
few
or
none
amongst
them
but
receiued
great
contentment
to
be
there
at
that
present
,
for
that
the
Emperour
Trebatio
(
séeing
with
him
his
sons
and
so
many
worthie
Princes
&
knights
)
receiued
so
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
that
he
thought
himselfe
to
be
the
most
happiest
and
fortunatest
Prince
in
all
the
world
.
And
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
&
of
the
faire
and
soueraigne
Empresse
of
Trapisonda
,
it
may
wel
be
said
that
ther
was
neuer
s●●ne
two
hearts
with
so
great
contentment
,
for
that
hauing
one
the
other
in
presence
,
either
of
them
thought
themselues
in
paradise
,
although
you
must
vnderstand
that
in
all
this
time
the
knight
of
the
Sun
could
neuer
bring
to
effect
his
desire
with
the
roiall
Princesse
,
for
she
was
of
so
high
a
courage
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
neuer
durst
in
heart
cause
her
,
to
receiue
anie
anger
,
neither
woulde
shée
consent
to
anie
thing
that
was
against
her
honour
,
the
which
she
had
alwaies
before
her
eies
more
than
anie
damsell
in
her
time
.
With
no
lesse
ioy
than
they
,
liued
those
two
faithfull
and
perfect
louers
,
the
faire
Princesse
Oli●ia
and
Rosicleer
,
who
being
in
presence
together
,
thought
themselues
cléere
of
all
sorrowes
and
griefes
the
which
the
one
had
sustained
for
the
other
,
whereat
the
king
Oliuerio
receiued
no
small
glorie
and
contentment
,
for
that
it
séemed
vnto
him
,
the
with
no
other
Prince
in
all
the
world
he
could
not
haue
married
his
Daughter
so
highlie
and
worthilie
as
he
had
married
her
,
neither
coulde
she
haue
bene
exalted
to
no
higher
estate
.
So
that
he
&
all
those
that
came
with
him
from
great
Britaine
were
wonderfullie
amazed
to
sée
the
mightinesse
of
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
&
the
highnesse
of
his
Court
,
so
furnished
with
a
greate
number
of
worthie
Princes
and
valiant
knightes
,
as
also
with
so
many
faire
and
precious
damsells
,
that
of
truth
it
might
be
spoken
,
that
there
was
neuer
seene
so
great
highnesse
and
maiestie
in
the
court
of
anie
Prince
before
the
time
.
And
the
Pagans
that
came
forth
of
Persia
with
the
king
Florion
,
meruailed
greatlie
to
see
the
orders
of
the
Court
of
Grecia
,
for
by
the
sacrifices
&
ceremonies
of
the
Christians
,
(
for
that
they
did
see
and
behold
them
euerie
daie
,
to
be
done
with
great
iumptuousnesse
&
reuerence
)
they
were
partlie
inclined
to
thinke
well
of
the
lawe
and
faith
of
Iesu
Christ
true
God
and
man
,
and
truc●●e
(
although
there
were
many
that
died
for
this
loue
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
wich
the
〈◊〉
Lyndab●●les
)
yet
grew
there
not
so
little
effect
〈◊〉
of
these
famous
wars
,
but
that
by
occasion
of
〈…〉
those
Pagans
were
saued
,
for
that
there
was
〈◊〉
that
came
out
of
Persia
but
turned
all
Christans
Likewise
the
valiant
and
worthie
Prince
of
Fraunce
in
this
time
did
reioyce
himselfe
with
his
loue
,
the
faire
Princesse
Lindaraza
,
as
two
that
loued
together
exeéedinglie
The
like
did
all
the
other
Princes
that
had
their
Mistresses
there
in
the
Court
,
as
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
with
his
loue
the
Quéene
Arquirosa
,
and
Rodomarte
and
Rodofeo
with
their
Ladies
,
and
as
all
these
receiued
great
delight
,
so
to
the
contrarie
,
Bargandel
,
Liriamandro
,
the
king
Sacridoro
and
Brandizel
were
verie
sorrowfull
for
the
absence
of
their
Ladies
,
although
the
great
good
wil
which
they
had
for
to
serue
the
Emperor
Trebatio
in
those
warres
,
did
witigate
the
great
griefe
which
otherwise
they
should
haue
receiued
for
their
louers
.
After
this
sorte
they
were
all
in
sundrie
and
different
thoughts
,
although
for
to
giue
battaile
against
their
enimies
they
were
conformable
,
in
which
time
vpon
a
sodaine
there
was
brought
newes
vnto
the
Emperour
,
how
that
the
king
Liseo
and
the
faire
Quéene
Radamira
were
come
into
the
port
,
they
for
whome
the
knight
of
the
Sun
made
ba●taile
with
the
stout
and
doubtfull
knight
Raiartes
,
&
restored
vnto
him
the
kingdome
of
Lidia
,
the
Quéene
brought
with
her
foure
thousand
knights
,
&
the
king
sixe
thousand
,
all
valiant
and
well
armed
,
who
comming
towards
Grecia
,
by
fortune
did
méete
together
at
sea
,
and
comming
both
in
one
demand
,
they
kept
companie
together
vntill
they
came
into
the
port
.
Then
so
soone
as
the
newes
was
knowen
in
Constantinople
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
did
so
much
that
his
sonnes
and
all
that
worthie
crew
did
go
forth
to
receiue
them
,
&
being
together
in
the
field
,
they
went
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whereas
they
found
at
their
comming
thether
,
that
the
king
and
the
Quéene
were
landed
a
shore
,
&
comming
vnto
them
to
giue
them
entertainment
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
said
:
My
good
Lords
,
from
this
daie
forwards
we
may
haue
little
feare
of
our
enimies
,
hauing
your
highnesse
on
our
side
.
This
feare
may
we
all
put
a
part
,
being
in
your
companie
(
sayd
the
Quéene
Radamira
)
for
he
that
deliuered
me
from
that
furious
and
fierce
Raiartes
,
will
deliuer
me
from
all
the
knights
of
the
world
.
Well
then
(
said
the
king
Liseo
)
I
am
no
lesse
bound
vnto
this
happie
Prince
than
all
the
rest
,
for
that
by
him
I
haue
my
life
,
&
all
my
whole
kingdome
,
and
there
withall
they
embraced
one
another
with
great
loue
,
&
all
that
were
there
reioyced
of
their
comming
,
for
that
the
king
was
a
verie
good
knight
,
&
furnished
with
all
good
manners
and
conditions
,
&
the
Quéene
Radamira
was
verie
faire
and
gratious
,
and
receiued
wonderful
ioy
and
contentment
to
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
for
there
was
nothing
in
all
the
world
that
she
desired
so
much
to
see
,
but
when
she
sawe
him
so
much
growen
,
as
well
in
bignesse
as
in
height
,
more
than
he
was
at
such
time
as
hée
was
in
Babylon
,
she
meruailed
verie
much
.
When
the
knight
of
the
Sun
and
those
that
came
with
him
had
giuen
them
their
welcome
,
they
tooke
their
waie
towards
Constantinople
,
&
passed
by
the
camp
of
the
Pagans
in
sight
of
them
all
,
who
did
behold
them
,
&
offered
them
no
harme
nor
discurtesie
,
for
that
there
was
a
truce
betwixt
them
.
When
they
came
vnto
the
Citie
,
the
Emperour
and
the
Empres
,
and
all
those
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
that
were
with
her
receiued
great
ioy
&
loued
their
new
guests
,
grasifieng
very
much
their
comming
.
And
héere
you
shall
vnderstand
that
at
this
present
that
worthie
and
valiant
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
when
he
sawe
the
Quéene
Radamira
was
taken
in
loue
with
her
,
with
great
good
will
for
to
take
her
to
he
his
wise
and
spouse
,
if
that
she
were
so
content
therewith
,
and
from
that
daie
forwardes
he
did
procure
by
all
meanes
to
giue
her
knowledge
thereof
,
and
she
when
she
was
aduertised
&
knew
him
to
be
so
valiant
a
knight
and
high
a
Prince
,
she
tooke
great
pleasure
in
his
seruice
.
So
by
reason
that
the
time
drew
nigh
of
the
generall
battaile
,
with
great
diligence
the
Emperour
and
all
those
worthie
knights
minded
no
other
thing
but
to
visite
their
people
,
commanding
that
they
should
be
prouided
of
good
armour
&
&
of
all
other
things
necessarie
for
the
battaile
,
as
they
that
made
account
,
that
they
had
all
that
remained
in
the
world
against
them
.
Likewise
on
the
other
part
in
the
campe
of
the
Pagans
they
did
as
much
,
for
in
all
the
daies
and
time
of
their
truce
,
they
vnderstoode
no
other
thing
but
to
make
all
things
in
a
redinesse
against
the
daie
appointed
,
being
determinded
amongest
themselues
to
goe
forth
all
the
whole
Campe
vnto
the
battaile
,
for
that
they
would
at
that
time
make
an
end
and
destroie
all
the
Gréekes
,
and
straight
wayes
enter
into
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
so
remaine
Lords
ouer
all
the
whole
Empire
.
Thus
after
this
sorte
they
passed
awaie
the
daies
of
the
truce
,
and
afterwardes
there
happened
many
other
things
,
as
shall
be
tolde
you
in
this
Chapter
following
.
Of
the
rigorous
and
bloudie
battaile
that
was
betweene
the
people
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
those
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
and
of
such
meruailous
things
as
happened
therein
.
Chapter
.
38.
I
Had
néed
of
an
vnderstanding
&
iudgement
much
more
higher
than●that
of
Plato
,
who
was
amongst
the
Philosophers
had
in
reputation
of
a
diuine
vnderstanding
,
&
more
prompter
than
that
of
Epaminondas
,
or
of
Cirus
amongst
the
Gréekes
and
Persians
,
who
were
accounted
without
comparison
,
and
also
a
memorie
more
greater
than
that
which
maye
be
giuen
me
by
the
Memoratiue
art
of
Simonides
:
eloquence
more
eminent
than
Homer
or
Demosthenes
,
to
declare
here
the
worthie
and
incredible
déedes
,
and
memorable
acts
of
those
heroicall
&
famous
knights
that
in
the
last
battaile
betwéene
the
Emperours
were
ioyned
together
in
the
field
of
Grecia
,
in
the
sight
of
newe
Rome
,
founded
by
Constantine
the
Prince
,
for
that
if
with
good
affection
you
read
the
Historie
before
written
,
you
shall
sée
this
pleasant
Hystorie
so
intangled
,
and
the
worthinesse
of
renowmed
knights
so
exalted
,
that
for
to
declare
perticularlie
euerie
one
of
their
mightie
acts
,
you
shall
well
perceiue
that
it
were
néedfull
of
the
diuine
fauour
:
&
againe
if
you
do
remember
the
most
parte
of
the
names
of
those
worthy
knights
,
and
the
varietie
of
Nations
there
ioyned
together
,
you
had
neede
of
a
good
memorie
,
and
to
tell
of
them
and
euerie
thing
in
order
,
it
is
for
to
manifest
all
the
whole
world
,
and
all
worthinesse
therein
:
So
I
séeing
this
worke
to
mount
and
ascend
so
high
,
&
my
small
vnderstanding
not
able
for
to
comprehend
the
same
,
was
determined
for
to
〈…〉
last
Chapter
,
and
not
to
procéede
anie
farther
,
but
leaue
this
trauaile
vnto
some
other
,
that
hath
a
more
sharper
vnderstanding
than
I
haue
,
and
remayned
certaine
daies
in
this
determination
,
and
occupied
my
wits
in
other
diuerse
and
variable
things
,
béeing
fullie
perswaded
that
my
vnderstanding
was
not
sufficient
for
to
declare
and
make
manifest
so
high
and
worthie
things
:
for
one
waie
the
mightinesse
of
these
two
Emperors
did
make
mée
to
wonder
,
for
that
to
bring
in
subiection
the
whole
vniuersall
world
they
lacked
nothing
,
and
another
waie
,
I
did
greatlie
meruaile
,
that
the
great
number
of
so
manye
worthie
and
valyant
knightes
,
who
according
vnto
their
great
valour
shewed
in
the
battaile
for
to
come
,
of
either
of
them
might
be
made
a
perticular
Hystorie
.
But
when
that
it
commeth
to
my
remembrance
,
that
I
shall
finde
that
shining
Alphebo
in
the
same
battaile
,
I
am
then
tongue
tide
,
and
my
wittes
troubled
,
to
thinke
that
I
doe
put
my selfe
for
to
declare
his
déedes
,
for
although
I
had
so
manye
and
more
eies
than
Argos
,
yet
were
they
not
sufficient
for
to
beholde
them
.
Who
lykewise
should
beholde
the
other
son
of
Trebatio
,
and
the
sonne
of
the
gran
Campion
,
shall
finde
that
their
actes
are
not
worthie
of
anie
lesse
memorie
.
I
knowe
not
whether
you
doe
remember
or
not
,
the
names
of
those
two
valiant
Pagans
,
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
that
onelie
in
hearing
them
named
the
earth
doeth
tremble
,
as
much
more
shall
be
done
by
their
equalls
,
the
Prince
of
●raunce
and
the
mightie
Troyan
.
Let
not
bée
forgotten
the
mightie
Emperour
of
Grecia
,
with
all
the
remnant
of
the
inclite
and
generall
knighthood
of
his
souera●gne
Court
,
for
according
as
they
are
all
most
valiant
and
stout
,
so
are
they
sufficient
to
make
the
whole
vniuersall
world
to
be
their
owne
.
What
shall
we
then
doe
if
we
remember
so
many
thousands
of
Pagans
which
are
vnder
the
banner
,
and
at
the
commandement
of
the
worthie
Emperour
Alycandro
,
amongst
whome
(
besides
the
Nations
of
strong
Gyantes
that
came
from
the
Orientall
Ilandes
,
of
the
Gran
Campion
)
there
were
one
thosand
more
of
Gyants
,
who
were
so
bigge
,
mightie
,
and
strong
,
that
they
were
sufficient
to
bée
accounted
walles
vnto
a
great
Citie
.
I
knowe
not
what
you
do
thinke
of
this
,
you
that
doe
reade
this
Hystorie
,
but
I
for
my
parte
when
that
I
doe
thinke
of
things
of
so
great
worthinesse
,
my
memorie
and
wittes
doth
faile
mée
,
And
I
am
fullie
certefied
,
that
if
you
did
see
this
great
battaile
concluded
,
all
the
Hystories
that
heeretofore
you
haue
read
and
séene
,
treating
of
loue
and
of
wars
,
if
that
they
were
laide
before
this
,
you
woulde
account
them
as
nothing
.
I
will
not
contend
anie
farther
héerein
with
reasons
,
but
certefie
you
,
that
I
béeing
determined
to
staie
here
and
procéede
no
farther
,
yet
for
all
that
,
as
the
wearied
horse
being
forced
by
the
sharpe
pricking
spurre
to
bée
quicke
in
his
course
:
euen
so
the
ouermuch
affection
the
which
I
haue
vnto
those
high
and
worthie
Dames
and
valiant
Knights
,
doth
constraine
mée
to
procéede
forwardes
,
till
such
time
as
I
doe
conclude
the
first
parte
of
this
mightie
Hystorie
,
and
in
that
my
weake
and
wearied
vnderstanding
cannot
comprehend
,
let
my
affection
supplie
the
same
,
the
which
hath
mounted
my
wittes
so
high
,
that
although
with
great
trauaile
,
yet
haue
I
translated
that
which
I
thought
neuer
to
comprehend
,
séeking
it
out
of
greate
volumes
,
from
the
originall
written
by
the
wise
Artemidoro
,
who
béeing
holpen
by
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
and
the
Magitian
spirite
,
lefte
it
in
writing
,
according
as
héereafter
you
shall
heare
declared
.
At
such
time
as
the
daie
appr●ched
of
that
heauie
and
sorrowfull
time
(
wherein
was
●ought
that
generall
and
bloudie
battaile
,
in
which
was
concluded
the
expedition
of
new
Rome
)
was
séene
great
wonders
and
tokens
terrible
to
beholde
,
and
sufficient
for
to
terrifie
the
heartes
of
those
valiant
and
stout
warriours
,
for
that
the
heauens
and
the
earth
did
manifest
the
excéeding
great
griefe
which
they
felt
of
that
mortall
destruction
,
and
it
séemed
verilie
vnto
them
that
the
end
of
the
worlde
was
at
hande
,
by
manifest
tokens
which
were
séene
that
daie
,
for
that
there
was
neuer
so
great
multitude
of
people
séene
slaine
in
one
daie
,
as
appeared
afterward
by
the
greate
streames
of
bloud
which
was
in
so
great
abundance
,
that
it
was
sufficient
for
to
chaunge
the
coulour
of
the
great
Sea
of
●geo
into
Fuxino
.
In
testimonie
whereof
,
at
such
time
as
the
daie
shoulde
breake
,
the
same
daie
of
the
battaile
all
the
whole
region
of
the
aire
séemed
to
bée
on
fire
,
with
great
abundaunce
of
lightnings
,
accompanied
with
so
many
and
dreadfull
thunder
clappes
,
that
all
the
celestiall
moouinges
séemed
to
haue
fallen
vpon
the
earth
,
and
at
such
time
as
the
daie
dyd
somwhat
appeare
,
the
dew
that
was
wonted
to
fall
from
heauen
in
the
mornings
,
appeared
to
bée
of
red
bloud
,
wherwith
al
the
grasse
and
flowers
in
the
fieldes
of
Grecia
was
laden
.
Likewise
there
were
that
sawe
,
that
whereas
the
shining
starres
alwayes
at
the
breake
of
daie
dyd
vanish
and
take
their
leaue
,
that
now
at
that
instant
many
Comets
of
fire
dyd
fall
from
heauen
into
the
campe
of
the
Pagans
,
and
did
as
much
harme
as
thought
they
had
béene
thunderbolts
amongest
them
.
And
at
such
time
as
the
Sunne
shoulde
shew
her selfe
,
they
sawe
plainlie
how
that
it
had
lost
his
rubicond
coulour
,
and
was
chaunged
into
the
coulour
of
bloud
,
but
after
that
this
earthquake
and
storme
of
lightening
and
thunder
was
past
,
yet
there
appeared
not
one
clowde
in
all
the
whole
region
and
compasse
of
the
aire
,
and
the
daie
was
verie
obscure
and
darke
,
by
reason
of
the
sorrowfull
and
vnaccustomed
coulour
the
Sunne
shewed
.
The
earth
quaked
and
trembled
verie
terriblie
,
wh●ch
was
the
occasion
that
many
edifices
dyd
fall
and
were
ouerthrowen
downe
,
and
many
high
mountaines
dyd
sinke
and
were
censumed
,
so
that
with
the
one
and
with
the
other
all
the
people
were
greatlie
amazed
,
and
there
was
not
one
,
(
although
hée
were
neuer
so
valiant
and
strong
)
but
at
those
sighes
and
tokens
receiued
both
feare
and
dreade
,
sauing
onelie
that
superbious
Pagan
,
the
sonne
vnto
the
gran
Campion
,
who
saide
within
himselfe
and
spake
it
plainlie
that
the
heauens
and
the
earth
dyd
shew
those
signes
,
in
token
of
the
great
abundance
of
bloud
that
should
be
shedde
that
same
daie
,
〈…〉
of
the
death
of
his
Father
,
and●
thought
it
〈…〉
such
time
as
the
battayle
was
begunne
,
and
their
companions
ioyned
together
,
that
he
might
execute
his
mortall
furie
,
but
it
was
not
long
after
that
his
d●sire
was
accomplished
,
for
that
,
that
worthie
and
valiant
Emperour
Trebatio
séeing
that
the
daie
was
come
of
the
battaile
,
verie
earlie
in
the
morning
at
the
daie
breake
,
was
in
the
field
accompanied
with
all
those
valyant
and
worthie
knights
,
putting
in
order
all
his
people
in
the
best
manner
they
could
,
for
to
execute
their
battaile
,
and
although
they
dyd
sée
those
wonderfull
signes
and
tokens
,
which
caused
them
to
haue
some
feare
and
dreade
,
yet
for
all
that
,
the
good
Emperour
neuer
once
abated
anie
whit
of
his
valiant
courage
,
but
had
great
hope
and
confidence
in
the
onelie
liuing
God
,
that
he
with
his
mightie
hand
and
outstretched
arme
woulde
defend
the
whole
state
of
Christendome
,
and
did
continuallie
in
his
heart
call
vppon
God
,
requesting
him
of
his
infinite
mercie
and
goodnesse
for
to
graunt
vnto
him
the
victorie
in
that
battaile
,
and
not
to
permit
that
that
worthie
crew
of
Knighthoode
should
bee
vanquished
and
lost
in
that
battaile
,
and
did
confesse
and
acknowledge
that
his
great
power
and
all
that
mightie
Campe
was
in
effect
as
much
as
nothing
,
if
that
bée
of
his
beneuolence
dyd
not
aide
and
succour
him
.
These
and
such
like
things
sayd
the
good
Emperour
in
his
heart
,
and
neuer
rested
in
going
from
one
place
to
another
,
putting
his
people
in
good
order
,
with
a
Tipstaffe
in
his
hande
,
lyke
a
valiant
and
expert
Captaine
,
wherein
there
was
not
one
that
dyd
passe
him
,
neither
in
his
owne
Campe
nor
in
the
whole
Campe
of
the
Pagans
was
there
anie
dyd
so
well
.
The
first
battalle
that
he
ordained
was
of
the
Gréekes
,
saying
,
that
in
the
defence
of
their
Countrie
it
was
greate
reason
that
they
shoulde
haue
the
foreward
,
wherein
there
was
foure
and
twentie
thousand
knightes
,
all
verie
well
armed

and
committed
the

all
Chi●alrie
and

,
and
put
in
his
companie
that
worthie
and
royall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
for
that
they
being
together
y●
one
for
the
other
,
would
force
themselues
to
worke
the
greater
wonders
,
and
on
the
otherside
,
he
placed
with
them
,
his
great
friend
Oristides
,
that
valiant
Troyan
,
so
that
they
thrée
being
together
,
they
were
sufficient
for
to
put
feare
and
dread
in
all
the
whole
Pagan
hoast
.
The
second
battaile
,
he
dyd
commend
vnto
that
valiant
and
worthie
Rosicleer
,
(
called
by
an
other
name
,
the
knight
of
Cupid
)
who
dyd
so
great
wonders
that
day
,
that
so
long
as
the
world
doth
endure
,
his
fame
will
be
mencioned
therin
,
he
gaue
with
him
in
company
,
his
very
good
friends
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
with
twentie
thousand
Gréeke
knights

of
great

,
who
followed
after

and
other
tenne
thousand
of
his
owne
people
,
and
in
his
companie
that
valiant
prince
Brandizel
,
being
father
and
sonne
,
that
made
great
destruction
amongst
the
Pagans
that
day
.
The
fourth
battaile
he
gaue
vnto
the
worthie
prince
of
Fransia
,
and
vnto
the
king
of
Lidra
,
with

they
brought
out
of
their
countries
.
The
fift
baitaile
he
gaue
vnto
the
gouernment
of
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
vnto
the
prince
of
Lusitania
,
with
all
the
people
that
c●me
out
of
great
Britaine
,
and
in
this
battaile
went
those
two
worthie
princes
Bargandel
,
and
Liriamandio
,
with
other
worthie
princes
and
valiant
knights
that
belonged
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
.
The
sixt
battaile
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
tooke
vnto
himselfe
with
all
the
rest
of
the
knightes
that
remained
,
which
were
to
the
number
of
thrée
score
thousand
knights
.
There
went
in
this
battaile
in
companie
with
the
Emperour
,
the
king
of
〈◊〉
the
two
princes
of
〈◊〉
,
and
Transilu●nia
,
with
the
two
gallant
princes
Rodomarte
,
and
Rodoteo
,
and
the
two
most
valiant
&
worthie
knights
,
Don
Clarus
,
and
Arealus
,
who
in
this
daye
dyd
not
a
little
exalt
the
honour
of
the
Godos
of
Spaine
.
There
went
also
with
the
Emperour
,
those
two
good
knights
Flamides
,
and
Florinaldes
,
who
were
great
friends
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
Also
,
there
went
with
him
those
foure
brethren
,
sonnes
vnto
the
gran
Torcato
,
with
that
stout
Rogelio
,
who
were
so
couragious
,
that
there
were
fewe
in
all
the
whole
armie
that
were
more
valianter
then
they
,
being
but
young
youthes
.
There
went
also
with
him
,
the
King
of
Bohemia
,
and
many
other
mightie
Lords
,
belonging
vnto
the
Emperour
of
Grecia
,
whose
names
be
not
héere
rehearsed
,
for
to
auoi●
tediousnesse
.
So
that
this
mightie
Emperour
hadde
about
him
such
a
companie
of
valiant
and
worthy
knights
,
and
of
high
estate
,
that
neuer
the
like
was
séene
,
who
little
and
litle
in
the
order
aboue
mencioned
,
dyd
begin
to
fill
those
fields
and
plaines
,
that
it
was
a
thing
worthie
to
be
séene
,
so
great
number
of
worthie
and
valiant
knights
to
be
ioyned
together
,
although
they
saw
before
their
eies
,
put
in
good
order
their
enimies
and
occasions
of
the
great
destruction
looked
for
,
as
also
those
fearefull
signes
and
tokens
which
the
heauens
and
the
earth
dyd
shew
vnto
them
,
the
which
was
a
thing
of
great
wonder
and
dread
to
behold
,
in
especiall
,
for
those
Ladies
and
gentlewomen
that
were
in
Constantinople
,
who
séeing
their
husbandes
and
children
to
depart
in
that
sort
,
their
clamors
and
cryes
seemed
to
assend
vnto
the
heauens
.
And
in
the
mightie
citie
of
Constantinople
,
there
was
séene
no
other
thing
but
olde
men
,
women
and
children
,
who
went
bare
foot
&
bare
legged
,
through
the
stréetes
from
one
church
vnto
as
other
,
praying
vnto
God
to
graunt
the
victorie
on
their
parts
,
and
to
defend
his
christian
flock
.
At
this
time
was
the
Empresse
Briana
,
and
the
fayre
princesse
Olima
,
with
the
beautifull
Linderaza
,
the
Queene
Radamira
,
and
Arquirosa
,
and
many
other
mo
verie
faire
and
beautifull
Ladies
and
gentlewomen
,
mounted
vp
into
a
high
tower
of
the
mightie
pallace
,
from
whence
they
might
at
their
ease
,
discouer
and
sée
all
the
whole
armies
,
but
when
they
sawe
so
great
a
multitude
of
infidells
,
against
them
whome
they
loued
more
then
themselues
,
they
receiued
great
sorow
and
dread
at
their
hearts
,
which
caused
them
to
shed
many
teares
,
and
to
pray
vnto
God
for
the
victorie
from
the
bottome
of
their
hearts
.
Now
let
vs
leaue
them
,
and
tell
of
the
Pagans
,
who
were
so
many
in
number
,
that
all
the
night
past
,
with
good
part
of
the
morning
they
hadde
enough
to
doe
for
to
set
all
things
in
good
order
and
in
a
redinesse
for
the
appointed
battaile
.
The
first
battaile
ordained
by
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
he
gaue
vnto
the
rule
and
gouernement
of
that
proude
pagan
Bramarant
,
who
like
vnto
an
hungery
Lyon
or
wolfe
,
wold
be
the
first
,
and
he
had
with
him
fiftie
thousand
horsemen
,
the
most
furious
and
fiersest
that
was
to
be
found
in
all
the
whole
campe
,
amongst
whome
he
caryed
all
those
giants
that
his
father
the
Gran
Campion
,
had
brought
out
of
his
owne
countries
,
which
were
more
then
one
thousand
and
all
mounted
vppon
Elephants
,
who
with
certaine
engens
that
they
brought
with
them
,
made
them
to
be
verie
swifte
.
Bramarant
hadde
with
him
in
that
battaile
all
the
kinges
of
the
Orientall
Ilandes
,
who
as
you
haue
heard
,
were
little
in●erour
vnto
gyants
,
and
were
the
most
strrongest
and
stoutest
that
was
in
all
the
whole
Ilands
,
and
beeing
this
braue
Barbarian
in
the
middest
amongst
them
,
he
thought
verely
that
all
the
whole
world
(
if
they
had
bene
ther
together
)
were
not
able
to
make
resistance
against
him
.
The
second
battaile
was
gouerned
by
those
two
mightie
Pagans
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
who
hadde
with
them
three
score
thousand
horsemen
,
all
of
the
Gran
Tartaria
,
meruailously
well
armed
,
although
the
most
part
of
them
were
armed
with
the
hard
skinnes
of
wilde
beastes
:
there
were
in
this
battaile
,
twentie
braue
and
furious
Gyants
,
whereof
twelue
of
the
most
furious
and
ill
fauored
,
had
no
other
charge
,
but
to
keepe
the
person
of
the
worthie
Prince
Meridian
.
The
thirde
battaile
was
giuen
vnto
the
charge
of
the
king
Orlan
,
and
the
king
,
Tiderio
,
who
were
two
mightie
and
strong
gyants
,
and
had
in
their
companie
all
the
people
of
Arabia
,
Carmania
,
and
Palibotros
,
for
that
their
gouerners
were
slaine
in
the
battaile
past
,
all
the
which
were
to
the
number
of
more
then
thrée
score
thousand
,
but
yet
verie
ill
armed
and
nothing
expert
.
The
fourth
battaile
was
giuen
vnto
the
prince
of
Cambray
,
who
as
you
haue
heard
,
was
a
young
knight
,
but
very
valiant
:
He
had
in
his
companie
three
kings
of
the
India
,
who
were
verie
fierce
giants
and
stoute
,
and
carryed
with
them
in
charge
foure
score
and
tenne
thousand
horsemen
,
but
not
all
mounted
,
vpon
horses
,
but
on
other
wilde
beastes
,
that
were
verie
light
and
swift
,
and
straunge
to
be
seene
in
that
countrie
.
The
fift
battaile
was
giuen
vnto
the
king
Balardo
,
Lorde
of
all
the
Seras
,
who
was
meruailously
esteemed
amongst
all
the
Pagans
,
and
feared
,
as
well
for
his
great
brauerie
and
fiercenesse
,
as
that
he
was
a
mightie
Lord
and
of
great
power
and
strength●
he
hadde
in
his
companie
fiue
kings
,
with
all
their
people
,
which
were
to
the
number
of
more
then
foure
score
thousand
;
he
had
also
with
him
fiue
gyants
,
who
being
in
the
fore
front
of
the
battaile
,
seemed
aboue
all
the
rest
like
vnto
towers
.
The
Emperour
Alicandro
,
had
for
the
gard
and
kéeping
of
his
person
,
twelue
gyants
,
the
most
fiercest
and
misshapen
that
could
be
found
in
all
the
whole
Paganisme
,
who
neuer
were
out
of
his
presence
&
companie
,
day
nor
night
,
so
that
the
Emperour
,
by
reason
of
their
great
force
&
strength
,
dyd
accompt
himselfe
in
great
securitie
.
He
was
meruailously
feared
of
all
his
subiects
,
for
that
who
so
euer
disordered
himselfe
at
any
time
in
his
presence
,
(
although
he
were
a
king
or
mightie
Lord
)
straight
waies
those
misshapen
giants
with
battell
ares
of
fine
steele
which
they
alwaies
had
in
their
hands
dyd
hew
them
all
to
péeces
.
The
most
principall
and
strongest
amongst
them
all
,
was
called
Organte
the
furious
,
he
was
all
full
of
ha●re
his
bodie
ouer
and
had
so
fierce
and
terrible
a
countenaunce
,
that
there
was
none
that
dyd
behold
him
,
but
was
afraide
,
and
therefore
he
was
called
furious
.
This
Organte
,
the
Emperour
tooke
a
part
and
gaue
vnto
him
fiftene
thousand
knights
chosen
out
of
all
the
whole
armie
,
&
sayd
,
that
they
should
put
themselues
into
a
thicke
wood
,
which
was
somewhat
on
the
one
side
apart
whereas
the
battaile
should
be
fought
,
and
they
should
not
goe
forth
from
thence
,
neither
shew
themselues
,
nor
be
séene
,
till
such
time
as
he
dyd
send
them
word
what
they
should
doe
.
So
when
that
Organte
the
furious
,
was
departed
,
the
Emperour
tooke
vnto
himselfe
the
sixt
and
last
battaile
,
with
the
rest
of
all
his
people
,
which
were
as
many
as
were
ordained
be●ore
,
in
all
the
fiue
battailes
.
He
had
in
his
companie
many
kings
and
mightie
Lordes
,
who
estéemed
themselues
to
be
verie
stoute
and
valiant
knights
.
Now
all
you
that
doe
reade
the
Historie
of
this
battaile
,
consider
that
neuer
before
you
haue
read
,
to
be
séene
ioyned
together
in
one
field
,
so
great
a
number
of
barbarous
and
stoute
people
.
And
likewise
,
what
should
be
the
hearts
of
those
Greekes
,
who
with
so
great
good
will
doth
march
towards
the
battaile
,
hauing
so
great
a
multitude
of
enimies
against
them
.
Now
let
vs
returne
to
tell
you
of
the
first
battailes
that
was
gouerned
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Bramarant
,
who
marching
little
and
little
,
the
one
against
the
other
:
This
furious
barbarian
in
the
middest
betwixt
two
of
th●se
gyant
kings
that
went
with
him
,
they
marc●ed
a
pace
before
all
the
rest
of
the
campe
,
and
put
themselues
in
the
face
of
their
enimies
,
abiding
to
sée
if
that
an●
of
the
principalest
knights
and
most
valiantest
,
would
come
to
receiue
them
.
The
which
being
séene
by
the
royall
princes
Claridiana
,
she
tourned
her selfe
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
sayde
,
Hauing
so
good
and
●r●ed
knights
by
mée
,
I
will
not
let
to
proue
my
speare
with
one
of
y●nder
three
which
are
come
forth
before
the
rest
,
although
according
vnto
their
greatnesse
,
they
seeme
rather
to
be
diuell●
then
knights
,
&
those
speares
which
they
bring
with
them
,
may
well
serue
for
mastes
of
Barkes
.
L●d●e
and
M●stresse
,
sayd
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
I
should
haue
bene
better
contented
if
that
you
had
remained
in
the
citie
,
and
from
thence
to
haue
beheld
vs
,
and
not
for
to
haue
come
to
take
all
this
trauaile
:
but
séeing
that
it
was
your
pleasure
for
to
doe
vs
this
high
courtesie
,
let
vs
goe
whether
your
pleasure
is
to
commaund
vs
,
for
that
▪
I
doe
more
estéeme
your
fauour
and
helpe
,
then
all
the
s●ro●gth
of
this
mightie
armie
,
so
that
&
if
there
should
come
against
mée
all
the
whole
infernall
companie
,
hauing
you
in
pr●sence
,
I
would
not
let
to
assalte
them
.
I
will
not
refuse
to
be
the
third
(
said
the
good
Troyan
)
for
hauing
such
worthie
persons
for
my
companions
,
I
am
fully
assured
of
the
field
.
And
there
with
these
thrée
went
foorth
for
to
méete
the
thrée
Pagans
,
that
came
foorth
against
them
,
so
that
all
sixe
made
their
encounters
together
,
and
their
furie
was
so
great
which
they
had
in
their
swift
course
,
that
they
made
the
earth
to
tremble
a
good
way
from
them
.
The
first
encounter
(
by
reason
of
the
swift
course
of
Corne●ino
)
was
made
by
the
two
mightie
and
stout
warriers
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Bramarant
,
and
by
reason
that
either
of
them
did
put
ouer
much
force
to
their
encounters
,
their
speares
which
séemed
to
be
mastes
,
were
sheuered
all
to
péeces
,
and
the
splinters
flew
into
the
ayre
,
and
both
of
them
fell
backwarde
vpon
their
horse
croupers
,
and
so
passed
the
one
by
the
other
,
but
straight
waies
they
righted
vp
them selues
againe
in
their
saddels
,
&
either
of
them
thought
to
haue
made
his
encounter
against
some
rock
,
for
that
they
thought
by
their
strengthes
to
haue
ouerthrowen
a
tower
to
the
ground
,
such
was
the
valiantnesse
of
those
worthie
knights
.
The
royall
Princes
made
her
encounter
with
one
of
those
Kinges
called
Bel●igro
,
who
made
his
encounter
so
strongly
,
that
the
point
of
the
speare
with
more
then
halfe
the
staste
had
passed
through
her
bodie
,
if
that
her
inchaunted
armour
had
not
made
resistance
against
the
force
thereof
,
and
yet
for
all
that
,
she
lost
the
raines
out
of
her
hande
,
and
her
stirr●ps
,
and
a
good
while
she
could
not
settle
her
se●fe
againe
in
her
saddle
,
till
such
time
as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
(
retourning
from
his
course
)
tooke
h●r
by
the
arme
and
dyd
helpe
her
to
stay
her selfe
,
and
was
greatly
amazed
at
the
strong
encounter
which
she
made
,
for
that
she
had
with
her
great
strength
thrust
her
speare
through
the
bodie
of
that
Gyant
,
and
therewith
ouerthrew
him
to
the
ground
,
whereas
he
laye
without
mouing
either
of
hande
or
foote
.
Oristedes
,
made
his
encounter
with
the
other
Kinge
,
who
was
called
Leopardo
,
and
dyd
so
valiantlie
herein
,
that
he
dyd
verie
well
make
apparant
the
high
progenitie
from
whence
he
dyd
descend
,
for
being
verie
strongly
encountered
with
that
Giant
,
which
made
him
to
loose
the
raines
of
his
bridle
and
his
stirruppes
,
and
to
embrace
him selfe
with
his
horse
necke
:
yet
dyd
he
make
his
iust
with
so
great
force
and
strength
that
he
ouerthrew
him
and
his
Elephant
downe
to
the
ground
,
one
vpon
an
other
,
and
by
reason
of
the
great
waight
of
the
fall
which
dyd
bruse
him
so
●ore
,
that
he
could
neuer
arise
,
but
dyed
presentlye
in
the
place
whereas
he
laye
.
Now
at
such
time
as
these
encounters
were
made
betwéene
the
fire
knights
,
the
two
first
battailes
were
ioyned
together
,
whereas
was
so
great
a
number
slaine
on
the
one
part
and
on
the
other
,
that
the
liuing
could
not
passe
but
vpon
the
dead
bodies
:
and
by
reason
of
the
great
dust
that
dyd
arise
amongst
them
,
they
could
scarce
see
any
other
thing
,
but
the
great
number
of
horses
and
Elephant
,
that
ranne
loose
out
from
the
thickest
of
the
p●eace
.
And
sure
it
was
a
most
pitifull
and
lamentable
thing
to
heare
the
great
shrickes
and
cryes
of
those
that
were
hurt
and
maymed
,
for
without
all
doubt
manie
a
thousand
of
them
might
haue
bene
cured
and
haue
liued
,
if
they
could
haue
bene
by
anie
meanes
holpen
to
arise
and
come
forth
,
but
by
reason
of
the
great
preace
and
multitude
,
they
dyed
a
miserable
death
vnder
the
horse
feete
.
But
who
so
euer
hadde
séene
at
that
present
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
presence
of
his
mistresse
the
princes
Claridiana
,
how
that
in
a
smal
time
he
ouerthrew
&
●●ew
more
then
thirtie
of
those
giant
knights
that
came
with
Bramarant
,
some
of
them
he
cutte
off
their
armes
,
other
he
cloue
their
heads
,
and
othersome
he
cloue
down
to
their
breasts
,
in
such
sort
,
that
in
so
small
time
there
was
neuer
séene
so
great
a
slaughter
done
by
one
alone
knight
.
And
the
royall
Princes
with
Oristedes
,
who
followed
him
,
many
times
did
with
draw
themselues
from
fighting
for
to
beholde
the
meruaiuailous
actes
that
he
dyd
,
and
the
sight
thereof
dyd
so
alter
them
,
that
the
bloud
within
their
bodies
séemed
to
ware
colde
,
to
see
the
terrible
and
mortal
blowes
which
he
stroke
:
and
although
they
for
their
parts
dyd
kill
and
ouerthrow
all
that
came
before
them
,
yet
had
they
enough
to
doe
to
●olow
him
,
his
furie
was
so
great
,
wherewith
he
put
himselfe
amongst
his
enimies
,
and
his
souldiers
that
dyd
behold
the
wonders
which
those
thrée
dyd
,
tooke
meruailous
courage
themselues
in
such
sorte
,
that
in
a
little
time
the
battaile
had
bene
ouer
come
,
if
it
had
no●
bene
for
that
strong
and
stout
Bramarant
,
who
played
the
diuell
amongst
the
Gréekes
,
killing
all
that
euer
he
could
reach
with
his
long
&
broade
cutting
sword
,
against
the
which
they
could
make
no
more
resistance
then
against
a
thunder
bolte
.
This
daye
was
the
death
of
the
Gran
Campion
,
vnto
many
verie
deare
and
sorowfull
,
for
that
his
sonne
for
to
make
cruell
reuengement
for
the
same
,
with
furious
wrath
and
mortall
anger
,
doth
destroy
&
ouerthrow
all
that
commeth
before
him
,
wherewith
he
doth
increase
the
streames
of
bloud
in
the
fielde
,
that
it
flowed
with
great
aboundance
.
The
kings
likewise
of
the
Oriental
Ilands
,
such
as
remained
,
dyd
healpe
him
verie
much
in
this
slaughter
,
for
that
they
were
great
Gyants
and
deformed
,
the
people
fled
away
before
them
,
as
from
the
diuell
of
hell
.
Likewise
,
all
the
rest
of
the
people
that
came
with
the
gran
Campion
from
those
Ilands
,
by
reason
that
they
dyd
surmount
in
stature
and
bignesse
,
the
people
o●
Grecia
,
and
more
in
number
,
dyd
kill
and
destroy
manie
o●
them
,
and
in
that
place
whereas
they
went
,
they
had
the
better
hand
,
so
that
the
battaile
was
in
ballance
,
for
that
on
the
one
side
the
Gr●●kes
〈◊〉
,
and
on
the
other
side
the
Pagans
lost
and
had
the
worst
.
In
this
sort
the
battaile
mingled
together
,
and
on
both
parts
was
done
great
slaughter
,
till
such
time
as
they
ioyned
with
the
second
battiles
.
But
these
worthie
knightes
séeing
howe
their
people
were
ouercome
and
fled
before
their
enimies
,
and
the
great
destruction
that
was
done
vppon
them
,
they
turned
about
their
horses
for
to
rescue
them
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
procured
to
come
to
that
place
whereas
Bramarant
was
,
and
when
that
he
came
thether
,
one
of
those
Gyants
that
was
with
him
,
stroke
so
terrible
a
blowe
at
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
vpon
her
helme
,
that
it
made
her
eies
to
sparkle
with
fire
,
and
againe
if
that
she
had
not
embraced
her selfe
about
her
horse
necke
,
she
had
falne
to
the
ground
.
But
this
Pagan
dyd
not
aduaunce
himselfe
of
that
blow
,
for
that
béeing
séene
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
was
all
kindled
in
ire
,
with
a
mightie
courage
he
raised
himselfe
in
his
stirops
,
and
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
vppon
his
left
shoulder
,
with
so
great
furie
and
force
,
that
he
cloue
him
downe
to
the
saddle
bow
,
in
such
sorte
that
hee
fell
downe
to
the
ground
in
two
péeces
,
with
so
great
wonder
vnto
all
them
that
sawe
that
terrible
blow
,
that
they
could
not
perswade
with
themselues
that
he
shuld
be
a
humane
knight
,
and
the
royall
Princesse
who
verie
well
sawe
the
execution
of
that
blow
,
was
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
at
her
heart
,
for
that
shée
had
so
nigh
her
so
valiant
aide
and
succour
,
and
being
almost
ashamed
to
sée
her selfe
so
euill
intreated
before
him
,
she
tooke
her
sword
in
both
her
hands
,
and
stroke
such
a
blow
at
another
of
the
Gyants
,
(
who
had
his
sword
in
the
aire
all
aloft
readie
for
to
discharge
it
vpon
her
)
that
she
cut
both
his
armes
a
sunder
,
that
his
hands
,
sword
and
all
fell
to
the
ground
,
and
the
gyant
ranne
awaie
and
put
himselfe
in
the
middest
of
the
battaile
,
roaring
and
houling
like
a
Bull.
From
that
time
the
worthie
Alphebo
and
the
roiall
Princesse
so
behaued
themselues
in
the
thickest
amongst
their
enimies
,
that
what
with
killing
and
wounding
all
that
euer
they
could
reach
,
in
such
sort
,
that
they
were
greatlie
feared
of
their
aduersaries
.
At
this
time
the
good
Troian
was
not
idle
,
but
all
to
be
raied
with
the
bloud
of
them
that
he
had
slaine
,
and
at
one
terrible
thrust
which
he
threw
at
one
of
the
Gyant
kings
,
hée
passed
his
sword
through
his
bodie
,
so
that
hée
fell
downe
dead
to
the
ground
.
But
when
that
Bramarant
sawe
the
great
destruction
the
which
these
thrée
knightes
made
amongst
his
people
,
he
rowled
his
eies
in
his
head
as
though
fire
would
flie
out
of
them
,
and
with
great
wrath
he
came
towardes
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
(
for
that
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
he
was
the
knight
that
stroke
the
mortallest
blowes
of
all
the
rest
)
and
when
hée
came
vnto
him
,
he
stroke
him
such
a
terrible
and
ouerthwart
blowe
vppon
his
healme
,
that
he
made
the
sparkes
of
fire
to
flie
out
a
great
waie
off
,
and
with
the
force
thereof
it
dazled
his
eies
,
and
did
somewhat
astonish
him
,
and
this
infernall
Pagan
had
not
so
soone
stroke
this
blowe
,
but
that
hée
stroke
another
at
the
Princesse
with
so
great
furie
,
that
●t
might
well
bée
saide
,
that
next
vnto
God
,
her
inchaunted
armour
dyd
saue
her
lyfe
,
for
that
his
greate
cu●ting
sworde
coulde
not
cut
nor
enter
into
them
,
yet
for
all
that
hée
brake
them
and
made
the
peeces
to
flie
a
great
waie
of
,
so
that
all
her
one
side
was
vnarmed
and
lefte
naked
.
Then
the
stout
Troyan
séeing
his
companions
so
euill
intreated
,
forcing
himselfe
with
great
courage
,
stroke
such
a
blowe
at
Bramarant
vpon
his
healme
,
that
he
amazed
him
in
such
sort
,
that
his
sword
fell
out
of
his
handes
,
and
hung
by
the
wrist
band
,
the
which
blowe
made
this
stout
and
proude
Pagan
to
knowe
that
his
knight
was
of
noble
bloud
and
courage
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
when
that
he
sawe
his
Ladie
vnarmed
,
he
went
vnto
her
and
requested
her
to
depart
out
of
the
battaile
to
auoide
the
great
daunger
and
perill
in
the
which
shée
was
brought
for
lacke
of
her
armour
.
And
therewith
he
left
Oristedes
in
contention
with
Bramarant
,
and
went
with
the
Princesse
to
set
her
fr●●
out
of
the
battaile
;
and
did
so
much
betwéene
them
both
,
that
quietlie
they
cléered
themselues
out
of
the
prease
,
and
being
frée
thereof
,
the
royall
Princesse
(
with
great
griefe
for
to
depart
from
her
knight
)
returned
vnto
the
〈◊〉
,
whereas
she
was
honourablie
receiued
,
and
gaue
great
comfort
vnto
all
those
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
.
The
knight
of
the
Sun
returned
againe
into
the
battaile
whereas
he
left
the
valiant
Oristedes
,
and
found
that
the
stout
Pagan
had
ouerthrowen
him
vpon
his
horse
crouper
all
astonied
and
amazed
,
and
as
the
Pagan
would
haue
stroke
him
againe
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
put
himselfe
before
him
,
and
sayde
:
With
mée
Bramarant
thou
viddest
begin
the
battaile
,
therefore
conclude
it
with
me
before
thou
makest
anie
farther
contention
with
this
knight
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
he
stroke
him
such
an
ouerthwart
blow
vpon
the
helme
,
that
it
seemed
hée
had
béene
all
on
fire
,
with
the
burning
sparkes
and
flames
of
fire
that
flew
out
thereof
,
and
the
force
was
so
great
,
that
if
hée
had
not
embraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
,
he
had
fallen
downe
to
the
ground
.
Then
this
furious
Pagan
righted
vp
himselfe
againe
,
blaspheming
against
the
heauens
and
against
them
that
gaue
so
much
power
vnto
nature
,
for
to
create
a
knight
of
so
great
force
and
strength
,
and
therewith
went
against
him
,
and
began
to
charge
him
with
such
terrible
blowes
,
that
if
it
had
bene
some
hard
Marble
rocke
,
in
a
short
space
he
had
broke
it
all
péeces
,
but
yet
the
good
armor
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
was
of
so
great
force
,
that
it
wold
haue
made
resistance
against
a
farre
greater
strength
than
his
,
by
reason
of
the
finenesse
of
the
bones
of
those
little
fishes
,
which
were
found
in
the
frosen
sea
,
as
you
haue
heard
before
,
wherewith
the
armour
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
also
that
of
the
Pagan
were
made
,
whereby
we
may
sée
and
vnderstand
,
how
great
and
strange
be
the
secrets
of
nature
,
that
in
so
little
bones
nourished
in
the
water
,
shoulde
make
more
greater
and
stronger
resistance
than
anie
yron
or
stéele
,
so
that
these
two
worthie
warriours
being
in
such
securitie
by
reason
of
their
armour
,
did
execute
the
furie
o●
their
great
strengthes
,
and
laide
so
cruellie
the
one
vppon
the
other
,
that
it
was
a
wonder
to
beholde
them
,
and
many
nigh
vnto
them
left
of
their
owne
fighting
for
to
beholde
them
,
meruailing
greatlie
at
their
terrible
and
most
cruell
battaile
.
Now
héere
let
vs
leaue
them
for
a
while
in
this
their
contention
,
wherein
either
of
them
had
inough
to
doe
to
defend
themselues
,
and
also
the
valiant
Troyan
,
who
was
intangled
with
a
stout
Gyant
in
battaile
,
and
had
great
care
for
to
cléere
himselfe
from
him
,
and
let
vs
tel
of
that
inclite
and
generous
knight
Rosicleer
,
that
had
the
charge
of
the
second
battaile
,
who
when
he
sawe
the
other
battaile
so
intangled
,
with
great
desire
that
he
had
to
sée
himself
amongst
his
enimies
,
he
and
his
two
friends
,
the
king
Sacridoro
and
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
,
did
put
themselues
before
their
camp
,
and
setting
spurres
vnto
their
horses
,
went
against
them
that
came
in
the
second
battaile
,
who
likewise
did
mooue
themselues
to
receiue
them
.
There
came
in
their
fore front
the
Prince
Meridian
,
and
the
stout
and
strong
Pagan
Brandimardo
,
and
with
them
a
king
of
the
Indias
,
called
Albiro
,
a
young
knight
and
verie
proude
,
these
thrée
came
against
Rosicleer
and
his
companions
,
and
in
the
middest
betwéene
the
two
battailes
they
made
their
encounter
in
this
sort
.
Rosicleer
and
Brandimardo
made
their
encounter
the
one
against
the
other
,
and
shéeuered
their
speares
in
péeces
,
passing
along
without
receiuing
anie
harme
,
but
Brandimardo
being
greatlie
amazed
at
the
strength
of
his
aduersarie
,
sayd
within
himselfe
:
Out
of
all
doubt
this
is
hée
that
did
combat
with
Bramarant
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
or
else
it
is
he
that
slew
the
gran
Campion
his
Father
,
for
that
I
can●ot
beléeue
,
that
in
anie
other
knight
shoulde
be
so
great
force
and
strength
.
The
like
dyd
Rosicleer
thinke
of
Brandimardo
,
whose
encounter
seemed
to
be
equall
vnto
those
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
sayde
within
himselfe
.
Oh
that
God
were
so
pleased
that
this
valiant
Pagan
were
a
Christian
,
for
surelie
it
shuld
grieue
me
verie
much
that
such
a
knight
should
perish
.
Then
the
strong
king
Sacridoro
and
the
Prince
Meridian
made
their
encounters
,
in
such
sort
,
that
their
speares
were
shéeuered
all
to
peeces
,
but
the
king
declined
so
farre
backe
,
that
his
head
touched
his
horse
crouper
,
and
he
staied
himselfe
so
stronglie
,
that
hée
fell
not
,
but
passed
along
being
greatlie
amazed
at
the
great
agili●ie
of
his
enimie
the
Prince
,
who
in
the
same
incounter
lost
one
of
his
stirops
,
and
therewith
put
himselfe
into
the
battaile
,
hauing
his
aduersarie
in
great
estimation
,
but
hée
that
had
the
best
lucke
in
these
their
encounters
,
was
the
valyant
Tartarian
,
who
meeting
this
proude
〈◊〉
,
strikking
him
in
the
middest
of
the
breast
,
he
thrust
his
Speare
through
his
bodie
,
that
it
appeared
at
his
backe
,
and
ouerthrew
him
dead
to
the
ground
.
With
that
encounter
hée
likewise
had
fallen
to
the
ground
,
if
there
he
had
not
embraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
.
When
that
these
encount●rs
were
finished
,
the
two
battailes
ioyned
together
,
and
the
noise
was
so
great
which
they
made
at
the
breaking
of
their
Speares
,
that
the
mountaines
and
hilles
seemed
to
shake
therewith
,
and
the
great
slaughter
that
was
on
both
partes
was
meruailous
great
.
But
when
that
Rosicleer
with
that
gallant
courage
(
as
he
was
wont
to
haue
)
did
put
himselfe
in
the
middest
of
the
gard
of
Meridian
,
who
(
as
you
haue
heard
)
to
be
twelue
strong
Gyantes
,
he
did
that
which
neuer
before
time
of
auncient
people
was
the
lyke
heard
of
hée
assaulted
them
in
such
sorte
,
that
one
of
them
hee
cut
off
his
right
arme
,
wherewith
he
did
gouerne
his
great
and
mightie
cutting
sword
,
so
that
he
was
〈◊〉
and
another
he
cloue
his
heart
asunder
with
a
thrust
hee
threw
at
him
,
he
had
not
at
that
time
〈◊〉
pulled
out
his
sword
from
the
gyants
bodie
,
when
that
two
of
those
which
remained
,
with
their
great
and
freelie
hatchets
,
gaue
eyther
〈…〉
a
blowe
the
one
after
the
other
,
vppon
his
rich
and
precious
healme
,
but
it
was
forged
by
that
wise
A●temido●●●
,
by
his
Ma●●icall
art
,
so
that
it
might
well
be
sayde
,
that
it
saued
his
ly●e
,
for
that
thei●
〈…〉
hatchets
could
not
enter
anie
,
more
unto
it
,
than
if
they
had
b●●e
●ade
of
〈…〉
yet
for
all
that
,
the
blowes
were
exceeding
strong
〈…〉
,
that
it
〈…〉
him
of
his
vnderstanding
,
and
〈…〉
to
fall
forwardes
vppon
his
saddle
b●we
,
and
his
horse
carried
him
about
the
field
,
but
all
fell
out
for
the
best
,
for
that
the
Gyants
hauing
no
more
care
to
garde
the
person
of
the
Prince
,
for
that
he
had
put
himselfe
in
the
thickest
amongst
his
enimies
,
hée
and
Brandimardo
making
such
destruction
and
slaughter
amongest
them
,
that
whereas
they
went
they
left
all
the
ground
full
of
dead
bodies
.
But
when
Rosicleer
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
sawe
that
the
Gyants
were
gone
,
hée
put
himselfe
into
the
thickest
of
them
that
were
next
him
with
greate
furie
,
destroying
and
ouerthrowing
all
that
was
in
the
waie
,
so
that
it
was
an
vnhappie
daie
for
him
that
once
proued
his
sword
.
Not
long
after
when
that
the
third
battaile
sawe
the
battailes
so
intangled
,
they
marched
on
a
pace
for
to
ioy●e
together
,
and
for
that
there
might
be
space
inough
for
〈◊〉
one
to
haue
his
fill
of
fighting
,
marched
forwardes
straight
waies
the
fourth
and
fift
battaile
,
for
that
there
were
such
knights
amongst
them
,
whose
stomacks
were
so
great
,
that
they
could
not
refraine
themselues
one●minute
of
an
houre
,
in
séeing
that
others
were
executing
their
furies
,
and
they
to
be
idle
,
so
that
in
a
verie
short
space
there
were
so
many
dead
bodies
in
the
field
,
that●
the
liuing
could
not
passe
but
vpon
them
,
and
whereas
so
many
people
were
ioyned
together
,
it
could
not
bée
but
some
encounters
must
bée
made
for
to●bée
noted
aboue
the
rest
.
As
that
worthie
king
Florion
and
the
valiant
Prince
his
sonne
,
made
their
encounters
against
the
king
Orlan
,
and
the
king
Triderio
,
whose
encounters
were
such
,
that
the
Prince
ouerthrew
the
first
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
although
hée
was
somewhat
astonyed
at
that
encounter
,
yet
hee
kept
his
saddle
,
and
passed
forwards
on
,
and
the
king
.
Florion
ouerthrew
Triderio
from
his
Elephant
,
whereon
hée
was
mounted
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
with
great
griefe
he
could
not
arise
againe
.
Likewise
the
valiant
and
worthie
Prince
Claueryndo
,
with
one
of
those
Gyants
that
came
with
the
Prince
of
Cambray
,
did
make
their
encounters
the
one
against
the
other
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
Prince
laide
his
aduersarie
along●in
the
f●eld
dead
,
and
the
stout
king
Li●eo
thrust
the
Prince
of
Cambray
ouer
the
crouper
of
his
horse
.
Also
the
king
Oliuerio
and
the●Princes
,
Bargandel
and
Liriamandro
,
Don
Siluerio
,
and
the
king
Alamades
,
made
their
encounters
against
the
king
Balardo
,
and
his
companions
,
and
there
had
like
to
haue
beene
a
meruailous
misfortune
,
for
that
Lyriamandro
and
the
furious
king
Balardo
fell
both
of
them
to
the
grounde
,
and
in
great
perill
before
they
coulde
recouer
themselues
againe
.
Bargandel
made
his
encounter
with
one
of
those
kinges
of
the
Indias
,
with
so
great
furie
,
that
the
point
of
his
Speare
appeared
at
his
backe
.
Don
Siluerio
and
the
king
dyd
ouerthrow
other
two
,
but
vnhappie
were
they
that
made
their
encounters
with
the
fiue
Gyants
that
came
with
the
king
Balardo
,
for
that
they
were
all
ouerthrowen
dead
to
the
ground
,
sauing
the
king
Alamades
,
who
by
reason
of
his
good
armour
could
not
receiue
anie
hurt
,
yet
for
all
that
he
laie
vpon
the
ground
more
than
an
houre
,
cleane
from
himself
,
before
he
could
come
againe
to
his
remembrance
.
So
in
conclusion
of
these
encounters
,
these
worthie
knights
dyd
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
at
whose
entrie
the
slaughter
was
so
great
,
that
the
little
brookes
were
made
mightie
riuers
with
the
abundance
of
bloud
that
was
there
shed
,
&
for
to
declare
perticularlie
the
mightie
déeds
&
wonderfull
acts
done
by
Rosicleer
,
it
wer
requisite
to
haue
an
hundreth
thousand
eies
for
to
behold
them
.
Likewise
the
worthines
done
by
all
that
valiant
companie
,
as
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
the
king
Sacridoro
,
Brandizel
,
and
Clauerindo
,
his
very
friends
,
with
all
the
rest
of
that
gallant
companie
,
as
the
Hystorie
hath
shewed
vnto
you
.
On
the
other
part
goeth
those
furious
Pagans
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
the
king
Balardo
,
and
the
other
mishapen
Gyants
,
all
to
be
ra●ed
with
bloud
,
and
killing
and
destroying
all
that
commeth
before
them
.
At
this
time
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
could
no
longer
abide
nor
suffer
,
seeing
his
people
in
so
great
trauaile
,
but
commanded
incontinentlie
to
sound
a
great
and
infinite
number
of
Trumpettes
and
other
instruments
of
warre
,
and
made
Proclamation
that
none
should
remaine
behind
but
all
to
enter
into
the
battaile
.
And
therewith
they
marched
forwardes
with
so
great
a
noise
,
that
the
earth
seemed
to
open
therewith
.
Then
the
Emperour
Alycandro
séeing
that
(
who
was
in
a
readinesse
)
would
not
be
the
last
,
but
straight
wayes
marched
forwardes
with
all
the
remainder
of
the
knights
,
and
sure
it
was
a
thing
of
great
compassion
and
pittie
for
to
beholde
,
so
infinite
a
number
of
people
slaine
,
when
that
these
two
battailes
ioyned
together
,
for
that
the
Horses
of
Darius
,
Cirus
,
&
Alexander
,
being
ioyned
all
together
,
were
not
so
many
as
were
there
at
that
present
.
The
worthie
and
renowmed
Emperour
Trebatio
made
his
encounter
with
the
king
Orilardo
,
who
was
a
mightie
Pagan
,
and
was
almost
so
bigge
of
his
bodie
as
a
Gyant
,
but
this
good
Emperour
made
his
incounter
in
such
sorte
,
that
he
broke
his
gall
within
his
bodie
,
and
th●ust
him
euer
his
horse
crouper
to
the
ground
.
Likewise
all
other
knights
of
fame
that
were
in
the
companie
made
worthie
incounters
.
After
which
being
done
they
put
themselues
in
a
bushment
together
round
about
their
good
Captaine
,
&
put
themselues
into
the
campe
,
killing
a●d
ouer●●rowing
those
Pagans
all
that
euer
came
befor●
them
.
On
the
other
part
g●eth
the
Emperour
Alycandre
compassed
about
with
those
mightie
gyants
,
and
other
ki●gs
and
knights
of
estimation
,
that
it
was
a
lamentable
t●ing
to
beholde
the
great
de●truction
that
they
made
am●●gst
their
enimies
,
&
for
that
there
was
on
both
parts
kni●hts
of
great
valour
&
estimation
.
The
battaile
was
in
●allance
,
although
there
were
of
the
Pagans
three
times
so
many
as
were
of
the
Christians
.
All
this
while
we
haue
forgotten
those
two
stout
warriours
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Bramarant
,
for
to
complie
with
other
worthie
and
valiant
knights
.
But
you
shal
vnderstand
that
they
c●ntinued
alwaies
in
their
cruell
battaile
,
and
dyd
no
other
thing
but
charge
the
one
the
other
with
their
terrible
blowes
out
of
all
order
,
and
with
so
great
furie
,
that
if
they
had
béene
two
Rockes
,
they
hadde
broke
them
all
to
péeces
,
and
the
anger
and
courage
of
eyther
of
them
was
so
great
,
because
they
could
haue
no
victorie
,
that
they
left
one
another
,
and
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
whereas
they
slew
and
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
,
and
couered
the
fields
with
dead
bodies
,
as
the
Mower
with
his
Sith
couereth
the
sorrowes
with
corne
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
put
himselfe
amongst
those
monstrous
Gyants
of
the
Orientall
Indias
,
and
made
so
great
slaughter
amongest
them
,
that
those
which
were
liuing
,
although
they
were
fierce
and
rough
people
did
flie
before
him
,
he
put
himselfe
with
so
great
furie
amongst
them
,
that
the
stout
Oristedes
rem●ined
behinde
him
,
and
could
not
followe
,
but
yet
with
the
great
desire
that
he
had
to
kéepe
him
companie
,
hée
did
strange
exploits
and
of
great
wonder
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
looking
backe
,
and
seeing
him
all
alone
,
did
tarrie
his
comming
,
making
a
breade
waie
in
euerie
place
whereas
hee
went
,
at
which
time
came
forth
against
him
a
rough
and
〈…〉
,
named
Othibe●●
,
and
was
Lord
ouer
the
Iland
of
〈◊〉
,
his
armour
was
edged
round
about
with
golde
and
precious
stones
of
great
price
,
who
stroke
so
strong
a
〈◊〉
at
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
vppon
his
helme
,
that
he
somewhat
a●●●med
him
.
But
this
proude
Pagan
departed
,
aduancing
himselfe
thereof
,
but
was
rewarded
for
his
boldnesse
,
with
his
head
clouen
asunder
to
his
breast
,
so
that
he
fell
downe
dead
to
the
ground
,
yet
ther
lacked
not
another
more
hardie
than
wise
,
that
thought
to
make
reuengement
for
the
same
.
There
was
a
king
called
Armelion
,
who
hauing
a
great
confidence
in
his
strength
and
in
the
excellencie
of
his
armour
,
wherewith
hee
was
armed
,
and
was
verie
good
,
went
towards
him
,
and
stroke
him
a
mightie
blowe
vpon
one
of
his
shoulders
,
but
he
that
had
receiued
so
many
of
that
furious
Bramarant
,
receiued
that
of
him
as
nothing
,
but
in
paiment
of
his
great
follie
,
the
sonne
of
Trebatio
stroke
him
such
another
vppon
his
head
,
that
both
helme
and
skull
he
stroke
into
his
braines
,
the
which
being
done
,
he
staied
not
,
but
procéeded
forwards
on
,
not
finding
anie
that
did
disturbe
him
in
his
waie
,
and
alwaies
he
had
an
eie
vnto
such
as
séemed
vnto
him
to
bée
the
principall
of
his
enimies
,
so
it
chanced
he
discouered
two
mightie
great
and
deformed
Gyants
,
that
were
both
together
with
mightie
mases
in
their
handes
,
and
made
great
slaughter
and
destruction
vpon
the
Gréekes
,
these
Gyantes
were
two
brethren
,
and
Lords
ouer
an
Iland
in
the
Indian
sea
.
The
one
was
called
Zario
,
and
the
other
Drago
,
and
in
all
the
whole
hoast
was
not
to
bée
found
two
Gyants
,
more
mightier
and
fuller
of
pride
than
they
were
.
But
as
this
gallant
louer
of
the
royall
Empresse
Claridiana
hadde
séene
them
,
without
anie
consideration
that
they
were
two
,
and
hée
all
alone●
hée
tooke
a
Speare
from
a
Pagan
that
was
next
him
,
and
se●
spurres
to
his
good
horse
Cornerino
,
and
with
so
great
fu●ie
,
that
hée
séemed
a
whirle
winde
,
he
went
towards
those
Gyants
,
(
who
were
séene
aboue
all
the
rest
more
than
two
●ubites
)
and
in
sight
of
all
the
people
he
encountered
wit●
one
of
them
in
the
middest
of
the
breast
,
in
such
sort
(
that
●●though
his
armour
was
twelue
plates
thick
)
yet
did
he
thr●st
his
Speare
a
good
yard
through
his
bodie
,
that
the
sharpe
point
of
his
Speare
appeared
at
his
backe
,
and
this
great
Gyant
fell
downe
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
made
so
great
noise
as
though
a
tower
had
fallen
downe
,
and
at
such
time
as
this
good
knight
dyd
passe
alongst
in
his
course
,
the
other
Gyant
that
did
abide
his
comming
with
his
yro●
mase
in
his
hand
all
alofte
,
hee
discharged
such
a
right
downe
blowe
at
him
,
that
if
hee
had
chaunced
to
fasten
the
same
,
it
had
not
gone
well
with
him
,
but
the
great
furie
and
swiftnesse
of
his
horse
Cornerino
was
such
,
that
before
hée
coulde
discharge
the
same
,
hée
was
passed
by
with
his
Maister
,
so
that
the
blowe
fell
downe
to
the
ground
,
and
entred
into
the
earth
thrée
spans
,
and
as
yet
hée
had
not
lift
vp
his
mase
when
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
tourned
about
his
horse
with
great
lightnesse
,
and
ioyning
himselfe
with
the
Gyant
,
hée
cast
a
thrust
at
him
with
the
point
of
his
sword
in
the
middest
of
his
bell●e
,
and
put
so
great
force
and
strength
ther
vnto
,
that
without
anie
staying
it
passed
through
his
double
and
thicke
armour
,
and
entered
into
his
guts
vp
to
the
hard
hiltes
,
and
pulling
his
sworde
out
,
his
guttes
followed
after
.
And
therwithall
the
Gyant
▪
with
an
infernall
furie
stroke
such
a
terrible
blowe
with
his
mace
on
his
backe
,
that
hée
hadde
ouerthrowen
him
to
the
ground
,
if
that
he
had
not
embraced
himselfe
with
his
horse
necke
.
But
so
soone
as
this
blowe
was
giuen
,
the
mightie
Gyant
fell
downe
dead
to
the
earth
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
doing
the●e
and
many
other
great
meruailes
passed
forwardes
on
,
discouering●through
all
the
whole
battaile
,
beholding
the
mightie
deedes
,
greate
meruailes
,
and
highe
knighthood
which
was
done
by
the
famous
knightes
on
his
part
,
vnto
whome
it
seemed
that
they
alone
were
a
sheelde
and
defence
vnto
all
his
people
,
for
without
them
they
had
beene
all
ouercome
and
dispearsed
,
for
that
in
comparison
there
were
a
great
number
more
on
the
pa●t
of
the
Pagans
than
there
was
on
theirs
.
Hee
lykewise
looked
about
for
Rosicleer
,
and
sawe
where
hee
was
all
alone
so
berayed
and
bathed
in
bloud
,
that
scarce
hée
could
bee
knowen
from
another
knight
,
but
onelie
by
the
incredible
deedes
which
he
did
,
and
seeing
him
in
that
sorte
all
alone
,
without
anie
of
his
confortes
,
that
could
come
vnto
him
for
to
succour
him
,
hee
fell
greatlie
in
loue
with
him
and
his
estimation
,
and
praied
vnto
God
with
all
his
heart
to
saue
and
defend
him
from
all
perill
and
daunger
.
Likewise
hee
sawe
in
another
place
the
good
Emperour
his
father
in
the
middest
betwixt
the
two
Spanish
knights
,
who
went
all
three
together
with
equall
courage
and
magnanimitie
,
and
made
exceeding
great
slaughter
amongst
the
Pagans
.
At
this
time
the
good
knight
would
not
staie
anie
longer
to
beholde
them
,
but
thrust
himselfe
into
the
middest
of
the
battaile
,
and
went
from
one
place
vnto
another
,
ayding
and
helping
there
whereas
hee
sawe
was
the
greatest
perill
.
At
this
time
the
daie
was
wel
spent
,
for
it
was
past
noone
and
the
knight
of
the
Sun
●éeling
the
wether
to
be
hot
(
as
he
,
that
had
trauailed
more
than
the
rest
,
for
to
refresh
himselfe
and
to
take
some
aire
,
as
also
to
sée
in
what
estate
the
battaile
was
)
went
out
of
the
camp
,
&
stood
vnder
a
little
wood
side
that
was
there
hard
by
the
Campe
,
and
alighted
from
his
horse
,
and
pulled
off
his
helme
,
and
dyd
from
that
place
beholde
all
that
passed
,
and
sawe
that
on
euerie
side
all
the
whole
fields
was
full
of
people
,
and
by
reason
of
the
greate
multitude
,
he
could
not
knowe
those
worthie
knightes
his
friendes
from
the
other
,
but
the
most
that
he
could
discouer
was
,
that
those
which
were
of
his
part
got
ground
on
their
enimies
.
Now
let
vs
leaue
him
in
the
place
where
he
is
,
who
for
a
greater
destruction
vnto
his
enimies
,
is
refreshing
himselfe
and
taking
aire
,
and
let
vs
returne
to
tell
of
them
that
remaine
in
the
battaile
,
where
are
so
many
of
renewmed
,
worthie
,
and
famous
knights
,
dooing
and
executing
so
great
wonders
and
meruailous
déedes
,
that
for
to
tell
them
perticularlie
,
it
were
needfull
of
another
great
Hystorie
.
On
the
other
parte
goeth
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
accompanied
with
those
kings
his
vassals
,
and
his
deformed
Gyantes
,
that
it
is
great
lamentation
and
griefe
to
behold
the
slaughter
that
they
doe
.
Againe
,
what
is
to
bée
sayde
of
those
two
valiant
Pagans
,
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
of
truth
not
one
that
beareth
good
will
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
would
see
it
.
On
th●
other
side
goeth
that
mightie
king
Balardo
,
and
the
king
●●hiderio
,
ouerthrowing
to
the
ground
all
that
commeth
before
them
,
but
yet
for
their
euill
were
they
séene
,
by
the
〈◊〉
Princes
,
Clauervndo
and
Brandizel
,
being
together
,
for
they
went
against
them
,
so
that
betwixt
them
began
a
rigorous
and
furious
battaile
,
but
yet
in
the
end
the
two
Gyants
were
slaine
,
and
the
two
Princes
procéede
forwards
,
doing
great
meruailes
in
the
middest
of
the
battaile
.
As
much
as
that
doth
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
who
in
séeking
of
Rosicleer
doth
put
themselues
in
the
middest
of
the
battaile
,
making
brode
waies
whereas
they
went
,
till
such
time
as
they
met
with
two
strong
and
stout
Pagans
,
who
staied
them
a
while
,
&
they
had
inough
to
doe
for
to
cléere
themselues
from
them
.
All
this
while
was
not
idle
,
but
did
their
partes
in
ample
manner
,
Bargandel
and
Lyriamandro
,
and
the
king
Alamades
,
Flamides
,
and
Florinaldus
,
and
the
Prince
Don
Siluerio
,
Rodomarte
&
Rodofeo
,
all
these
together
did
wonderfull
things
,
aiding
and
helping
whereas
was
most
necessitie
,
yet
was
there
none
that
was
with
Rosicleer
,
for
he
was
all
alone
,
and
did
verie
well
cleere
the
waie
whereas
he
would
goe
,
and
dyd
so
much
on
euerie
side
,
that
in
the
ende
he
came
whereas
the
Emperour
his
Father
was
,
and
sawe
that
hee
alone
with
those
two
Spanish
knightes
were
in
combat
with
the
fiue
Gyants
of
the
king
Balardo
,
and
waxed
verie
faint
and
wearie
,
but
when
that
he
sawe
it
,
lyke
a
hungrie
Lion
he
went
towards
them
,
and
when
he
came
whereas
they
were
,
he
stroke
such
a
blowe
at
the
first
vpon
his
shoulder
,
that
he
cloue
him
downe
to
the
breast
,
and
ouerthrew
him
to
the
earth
,
and
straight
waies
tourned
vnto
another
,
whome
he
slew
,
with
another
blowe
stroke
off
his
arme
wherewith
he
h●ld
his
sword
,
and
as
he
was
turning
for
to
strike
another
,
that
did
charge
much
the
Emperour
,
he
saw
that
the
Emperour
at
one
blow
ouerthrewe
him
to
the
earth
,
for
that
he
stroke
him
ouerthwart
the
wast
,
in
such
sort
,
that
his
sword
entered
into
his
bowels
,
that
hée
fell
downe
dead
.
And
when
he
sawe
the
good
succour
that
he
had
of
his
sonne
,
in
the
tune
of
so
great
extremitie
,
he
was
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
.
Likewise
at
this
time
the
two
valiant
brethren
,
Don
Cla●●
and
Arc●lus
had
so
wounded
the
other
two
Gyants
,
that
in
the
end
they
ouerthrew
them
to
the
ground
.
Then
Rosicleer
seeing
that
the
Emperour
was
meruailouslie
accompanied
,
for
that
the
other
Princes
were
come
vnto
him
,
set
spurres
to
his
horse
,
and
put
himselfe
in
the
thickest
amongst
his
enimies
,
and
neuer
rested
till
he
came
whereas
the
stout
Pagan
Brandimardo
was
,
and
séeing
the
greate
slaughter
that
he
and
Meridian
made
,
he
went
towardes
them
,
and
at
his
approching
,
betwéen
them
was
dealt
mightie
,
strong
,
and
terrible
blowes
,
in
such
sort
,
that
Brandimardo
thought
verilie
within
himselfe
that
his
aduersarie
should
be
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
whom
he
did
combat
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
for
that
he
supposed
Rosicleer
was
not
of
so
great
strength
,
although
many
times
hée
heard
him
greatlie
praised
and
spoken
of
,
which
gaue
him
great
good
will
to
proue
himselfe
with
him
.
And
for
that
at
that
present
Brandimardo
did
shew
the
vttermost
of
all
his
force
and
strength
,
it
gaue
Rosicleer
to
vnderstand
that
hée
was
one
of
the
strongest
knights
that
euer
he
had
proued
,
he
was
so
valiant
and
full
of
dexteritie
.
You
may
well
beléeue
that
in
all
this
time
was
not
that
furious
Pagan
Bramarant
vnoccupied
,
but
with
in●ernall
furie
he
destroyeth
and
ouerthroweth
all
that
commeth
before
him
,
who
when
he
sawe
that
the
most
part
of
the
daie
was
past
,
and
sawe
that
there
was
no
aduantage
gotten
on
their
part
,
but
rather
they
had
lost
ground
,
thought
verilie
that
there
was
no
other
occasion
thereof
,
but
onelie
the
worthie
,
famous
,
and
valiant
knights
that
were
of
the
Greekes
part
,
and
it
séemed
that
it
did
profit
verie
little
for
to
kil
and
s●aie
so
many
of
the
common
people
,
before
that
first
he
had
ouercome
the
principall
knightes
.
So
this
infernall
and
diuell●●h
Pagan
hauing
his
mind
occupied
the●ewith
,
he
presentlie
left
off
the
slaughter
which
he
made
before
,
&
tooke
a
mightie
great
,
and
big
Speare
from
one
of
his
men
,
and
setting
spurres
vnto
his
furious
horse
,
he
put
himselfe
into
the
thickest
of
the
battaile
,
looking
round
about
where
hée
might
●ee
anie
knight
of
valour
and
prowesse
,
and
vppon
a
sodaine
he
saw
the
king
Oristedes
,
who
at
that
present
concluded
and
slew
the
king
of
the
Pa●tos
,
with
one
blowe
,
wherewith
he
cloue
his
head
asunder
in
the
middest
,
Bramarant
ra●ne
against
him
,
and
made
his
encounter
on
the
one
side
,
in
●uch
sorte
,
that
he
ouerthrew
him
on
the
other
side
of
his
horse
with
his
saddle
betwixt
his
legges
,
and
hadde
with
that
blowe
slaine
him
,
if
that
his
inchanted
armour
had
not
resisted
his
furie
,
so
that
he
departed
from
thence
,
and
wen●
whereas
hée
found
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
and
ouerthrew
them
both
to
the
ground
in
iusting
,
and
passing
forwardes
on
,
hée
sawe
the
stout
king
Florion
,
who
at
that
instant
slew
a
mightie
Gyant
,
and
making
his
encounter
against
him
,
hée
thrust
both
horse
&
man
to
the
earth
.
This
mightie
and
furious
Pagan
stayed
not
in
this
place
,
but
passed
forwards
,
and
came
whereas
he
found
the
two
Princes
,
Brandizel
and
Clauerindo
,
making
their
combat
with
the
king
Balardo
,
and
his
companion
,
at
which
time
they
obtained
the
victorie
with
the
death
of
those
two
Gyantes
,
hée
came
vpon
them
vnbewares
,
and
one
of
them
hée
ouerthrew
with
the
iust
of
his
Speare
,
in
such
sort
,
that
his
valyant
strength
and
courage
coulde
not
profite
him
anie
thing
at
all
,
and
the
other
he
iustled
him
with
his
horse
,
who
ranne
with
so
excéeding
greate
furie
,
that
hée
ouerthrew
him
to
the
ground
,
and
as
hée
procéeded
forwardes
on
in
the
battayle
,
looking
round
about
him
,
he
sawe
a
farre
off
the
worthie
Emperour
Trebatio
,
accompanied
with
a
great
number
of
Princes
and
valyant
knightes
,
who
dyd
great
meruailes
and
wonders
vppon
their
enimies
,
and
taking
the
b●g●est
lance
that
hée
could
find
,
hee
went
towards
them
,
and
stroke
the
good
Emperour
on
the
one
side
,
vnbewares
,
and
thrust
him
cleane
out
of
his
Saddle
.
The
lyke
hee
dyd
vnto
the
two
bretheren
Don
Clarus
and
A●culus
.
Then
the
other
Princes
when
they
sawe
the
Emperour
vnhorsed
,
they
came
forthwith
for
to
succour
and
helpe
him
,
but
their
comming
had
lyke
to
haue
cost
them
deare
,
for
that
at
two
blowes
which
hee
stroke
with
his
sworde
,
he
astonyed
and
left
without
remembrance
the
two
Princes
,
Bargandel
and
Lyriamandr●o
,
and
within
a
little
while
after
he
ouerthrew
to
the
ground
Don
Siluerio
and
the
two
Princes
Rodamarte
and
Rodofeo
,
Flamides
and
Flo●inaldus
,
and
thinking
that
they
were
dead
,
this
diuellish
and
outragious
Pagan
proceeded
farther
on
,
till
hee
came
whereas
Rosicleer
and
Brandimardo
were
combatting
together
,
and
hée
seeing
their
battaile
so
intangled
,
and
knowing
him
for
certaintie
to
bée
the
same
which
slew
the
gran
Compion
his
Father
,
beeing
full
of
mortall
courage
,
as
sparkes
of
fire
should
flie
out
at
his
eies
,
he
went
vnto
him
and
stroke
him
an
ouerthwart
blowe
with
both
his
hands
vpon
his
helme
,
which
was
of
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
the
bloud
gushed
out
at
his
eares
and
nose
,
and
depriued
him
of
his
remembrance
,
so
that
his
horse
carried
him
a
while
about
the
field
.
Then
the
stout
Brandimardo
,
who
was
more
vertuous
than
he
,
saw
the
great
villanie
the
which
Bramarant
had
done
,
with
a
wrathfull
courage
he
went
against
him
,
and
sayd
.
Oh
thou
vncurteous
villaine
,
come
to
the
battaile
with
me
,
for
that
it
shal
cost
thée
full
déere
,
this
shame
and
discurtesie
which
thou
hast
shewed
vnto
me
.
And
therewith
hée
stroke
him
such
an
ouerthwart
blow
vpon
the
healme
,
that
with
the
sparkes
of
fire
that
flew
out
thereof
,
he
burned
all
the
haire
vpon
his
browes
and
eie
lids
.
Then
Barmarant
,
who
alwaies
did
beare
him
ill
will
since
the
time
that
hée
did
combat
against
him
and
Meridian
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
returned
a
replie
against
him
with
so
great
furie
,
that
the
noise
of
their
new
begun
battell
betwixt
them
was
heard
throughout
all
the
whole
campe
,
but
their
combat
indured
not
long
,
for
that
Rosicleer
came
straight
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
remembring
what
had
passed
,
he
went
vnto
Brandimardo
,
and
gaue
him
great
thankes
for
that
which
he
had
done
for
him
,
and
requested
him
to
let
him
to
haue
the
battaile
against
Bramarant
,
who
vnderstanding
what
Rosicleer
had
sayd
,
with
great
pride
sayd
:
Come
both
of
you
together
against
me
,
for
if
there
were
ten
such
as
you
are
,
I
would
not
esteeme
you
in
anie
thing
.
Well
said
Brandimardo
,
for
that
I
will
not
doe
thée
so
much
honour
,
I
will
leaue
the
battaile
,
for
that
thy selfe
alone
shall
conclude
it
with
this
knight
,
who
I
am
perswaded
is
such
a
one
that
will
abase
and
breake
the
heart
of
this
thy
great
pride
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
●he
withdrew
himselfe
a
backe
,
&
straight
waies
began
Rosicleer
for
to
combat
with
Bramarant
,
and
at
two
blowes
that
he
stroke
at
him
,
doubling
one
after
another
,
did
intreate
him
in
such
sort
,
that
he
knew
not
whether
he
was
in
heauen
or
on
the
earth
,
so
that
betwixt
them
there
began
a
braue
battaile
,
in
such
sort
,
that
Bramarant
did
well
vnderstand
that
he
had
inough
to
doe
to
cléere
himselfe
from
the
furious
blowes
of
Rosicleer
alone
.
without
the
help
of
the
companion
that
he
esteemed
vnto
to
him
,
and
Meridian
and
Brandimanrdo
who
stoode
and
did
dyd
beholde
the
〈…〉
not
a
little
reioyce
,
to
〈◊〉
how
much
that
alone
knight
did
〈◊〉
the
great
courage
and
pride
of
Bramarant
,
and
with
the
great
contentment
that
they
t●●ke
to
beholde
them
in
the
battaile
,
they
staid
and
withdrew
themselues
a
while
from
fighting
.
At
this
time
all
those
knights
that
were
ouerthrowen
by
that
monster
,
found
themselues
in
a
great
perpl●●itie
,
for
that
much
people
dyd
ouercharge
them
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
could
not
mount
themselues
againe
on
horsebacke
,
but
in
especiall
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
the
two
brethren
Don
Cla●os
and
Arcalus
,
who
were
all
a●oote
together
making
their
defence
with
their
swordes
in
their
handes
,
killing
&
slaying
so
many
,
that
round
about
them
laie
a
great
number
of
dead
bodies
.
But
the
king
of
Gandaros
did
trouble
them
verie
much
,
with
two
great
ill
fauoured
and
deformed
Gyantes
,
that
he
had
in
his
companie
,
with
other
knights
,
who
put
them
in
great
perill
.
Not
farre
from
that
place
were
these
Princes
,
Bargandel
and
Lyriamandro
,
Rodomarte
and
Rodofeo
,
Hamides
,
and
Hormaldus
,
all
together
,
whereas
they
did
great
wonders
,
but
by
reason
that
they
were
a
foote
,
(
and
charged
with
much
people
)
they
passed
great
trouble
.
The
like
meruailes
did
those
two
worthie
Princes
,
Brandizel
and
Clauerindo
,
who
were
compassed
about
with
more
than
twentie
Gyants
of
the
Orientall
Ilands
.
But
he
that
was
in
greatest
perplexitie
more
than
all
the
rest
,
was
the
Troyan
Oristedes
,
for
that
he
was
all
alone
and
a
foote
,
and
was
closed
in
with
thrée
kings
of
the
Indians
,
and
with
and
infinite
number
of
other
people
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
by
no
meanes
he
could
get
out
from
amongst
them
,
except
he
should
flie
into
the
aire
.
But
yet
this
good
knight
in
〈◊〉
daie
did
make
manifest
the
noble
and
valiant
stocke
from
whence
hée
dyd
descend
,
for
that
hee
slew
a
great
number
,
and
made
his
partie
good
,
defending
himselfe
till
such
tim●
as
succour
did
come
vnto
him
,
but
yet
they
that
did
best
cléere
themselues
was
the
Tartarian
Zoylo
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
for
that
the
fiue
sonnes
of
the
mightie
Torcato
and
the
stout
Rogelio
,
all
together
chanced
to
passe
that
waie
wheras
they
were
,
&
with
the
high
knighthood
which
they
vsed
,
they
mounted
againe
vppon
their
horses
,
and
ioyned
with
the
king
Oliuerio
and
his
knights
,
so
that
they
all
together
put
themselues
into
the
thickest
of
the
campe
,
whereas
they
did
great
wonders
.
Now
let
vs
leaue
them
in
this
sort
in
the
battaile
,
dooing
of
valiant
and
worthie
déedes
on
euerie
side●
,
and
although
the
common
people
and
souldiours
on
the
part
of
the
Pagans
were
without
number
,
yet
those
on
the
part
of
the
Christians
were
farre
better
and
better
armed
,
and
dyd
great
slaughter
vpon
their
enimies
,
and
let
vs
tell
of
that
dreadfull
Organte
,
who
was
in
an
ambushment
in
a
woode
with
his
people
.
When
the
Emperour
Alycandro
sawe
that
the
daye
passed
awaie
,
and
that
it
was
then
time
to
put
in
execution
that
which
hee
had
d●termined
(
for
that
the
battaile
was
at
that
time
in
a
bal●ance
)
he
sent
out
of
hande
a
messenger
vnto
him
for
to
issu●
forth
.
So
when
that
Organte
had
receiued
the
commandement
of
his
Lord
,
lyke
as
the
hungrie
Lyon
runneth
out
o●
the
thicke
woods
for
to
seeke
his
praie
in
the
plaine
amongst
the
Cattell
:
euen
so
he
with
all
his
people
went
out
o●
the
ambushment
,
and
with
as
greate
expedition
as
might
bée
,
th●y
went
to
put
themselues
into
the
battell
,
but
it
so
fell
out
before
they
came
thether
,
that
there
happened
●nother
thing
cleane
contrarie
vnto
that
which
they
look●●
for
.
For
if
you
doe
call
vnto
your
remembrance
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
where
wée
left
him
vpon
a
lyttle
ba●ke
vnder
the
woode
side
,
beholding
the
battayle
,
as
hée
cast
his
eie
aside
towardes
that
place
,
hée
sawe
those
people
comming
out
of
the
Forest●
,
whereat
hée
was
greatlie
amazed
,
and
if
dyd
not
a
little
molest
and
grieue
him
,
for
that
hee
sawe
they
were
Pagans
,
and
in
so
great
exeremitie
for
to
enter
into
the
battayle
.
But
committing
himselfe
vnto
almightie
God
,
desiring
him
if
it
were
his
pleasure
to
graunt
the
victorie
vnto
the
Christians
.
And
therewithall
descended
from
the
place
whereas
hee
was
,
and
put
himselfe
in
the
plaine
,
whereas
that
most
dreadfull
Organte
with
his
people
should
passe
,
and
béeing
there
with
his
speare
in
his
hande
abiding
his
comming
,
he
sawe
comming
towards
him
a
bigge
knight
and
verie
well
made
,
whose
proportion
dyd
giue
him
great
contentment
,
hée
was
mounted
vppon
a●mightie
great
horse
,
and
was
armed
with
armour
,
brodered
about
with
golde
and
precious
stones
,
so
fresh
and
bright
,
that
it
seemed
thereby
that
it
should
be
the
first
time
that
hee
was
armed
with
them
,
and
béeing
verie
much
delyghted
in
his
gallant
disposition
,
hée
was
desirous
for
to
knowe
who
he
was
,
but
hée
hadde
no
time
for
to
informe
himselfe
thereof
,
for
that
at
the
same
verie
instant
approched
that
dreadfull
Organte
,
who
came
a
good
space
before
his
people
,
and
was
mounted
vppon
a
mightie
and
straunge
beast
,
not
inferiour
vnto
the
bignesse
of
an
Elephant
,
verie
strong
,
and
as
light
and
swift
as
anie
horse
,
and
by
reason
that
hée
was
so
mightie
and
huge
of
his
person
béeing
on
horse
backe
,
hee
séemed
lyke
vnto
a
Tower
,
his
countenaunce
and
expectation
was
so
terrible
and
grim
,
that
it
was
sufficient
for
to
put
feare
and
dreade
in
anie
knight
,
how
heroycall
and
valyant
so
euer
hée
were
.
But
this
flower
and
mirrour
of
all
Knighthood
,
who
neuer
made
anie
other
account
,
but
vnto
that
which
reason
and
honour
did
binde
him
,
without
anie
feare
and
dreade
came
vnto
him
,
and
sayd
:
Gyant
,
tell
me
whether
thou
doest
goe
with
so
great
hast
.
Then
the
Gyant
verie
wrathfull
and
angrie
at
that
demand
,
beholding
him
with
a
fierce
countenance
,
answered
and
said
:
As
thou
art
one
,
if
thou
were
one
hundreth
,
I
would
make
the
answere
to
be
verie
déere
vnto
thée
,
but
yet
whether
is
it
that
I
shoulde
goe
,
but
to
make
mightie
riuers
of
the
Gréekish
bloud
.
bloud
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
sayde
:
first
before
that
thou
doest
attempt
that
enterprise
,
,
thou
must
combat
with
mée
,
for
I
doe
tell
th●e
,
that
before
thou
canst
make
great
riuers
,
thou
must
first
make
litt●e
brookes
.
Then
with
great
furie
,
throwing
out
smoake
from
his
●ealme
;
this
dreadfull
Organte
tourneth
about
his
mightie
beast
,
and
sayd
in
this
manner
.
Oh
Iupiter
,
how
hast
thou
giuen
vnto
one
alone
knight
so
great
hardinesse
,
that
being
armed
in
the
field
he
durst
challenge
and
dos●e
the
dreadfull
Organte
.
And
when
he
had
taken
of
the
field
so
much
as
he
thought
sufficient
for
his
course
,
with
his
Speare
in
his
hand
,
which
séemed
to
bee
a
high
and
mightie
Pu●e
tree
,
he
came
against
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
so
fast
as
his
Corner●no
could
●unne
,
came
against
him
,
and
according
vnto
the
great
furie
that
eyther
of
them
brought
▪
it
séemed
that
the
earth
dyd
thunder
and
quake
,
but
wh●n
they
ioyned
to
make
their
encounter
,
the
Spea●●
of
the
Gyant
was
〈◊〉
all
to
p●●es
vppon
the
〈…〉
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
considering
the
〈◊〉
thereof
;
,
and
with
what
force
and
furie
it
was
broken
,
it
had
beene
sufficient
to
haue
ouerthrowen
a
wall
,
for
that
it
made
so
great
a
noise
as
though
a
thunderbolt
had
fallen
from
heauen
,
and
yet
for
all
this
it
made
no
more
〈…〉
that
good

,
than
if
it
had
ben
but
a

〈…〉

he
made
his

〈…〉
in
the
middest
of

〈…〉
that
he
thri●●●
through
and
through
,
not
sp●●●ing
his
thicke
and
〈◊〉
of

but
with
the
force

he
made
the
point

〈◊〉

wherewith
he
ouerthr●w
〈◊〉

for
〈…〉
he
was
verie
desirous
to
know
who
he
was
,
she
came
thether
in
that
sort
out
of
the
Citie
for
to
sée
the
estate
of
all
the
whole
campe
,
vpon
that
litt●e
mountaine
,
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
,
as
he
had
done
before
▪
whose
generous
heart
hauing
no
power
to
kéepe
her selfe
in
〈◊〉
anie
longer
▪
being
in
presence
of
him
whom
she
so
much
●●ned
,
and
knowing
him
,
receiued
great
contentment
〈…〉
that
worthie
encounter
,
●he
went
vnto
him
and
sayd
〈…〉
them
,
vpon
them
my
good
friend
,
and
leaue
not
one
of
them
a
liue
.
But
when
the
knight
of
the
Sun
knew
her
,
it
could
not
bée
expressed
the
great
ioy
that
he
receiued
.
But
by
reas●n
that
the
people
of
Organte
drow
nigh
vnto
him
,
he
had
no
time
to
make
her
answere
according
vnto
his
〈◊〉
desire
,
but
onelie
he
sayd
:
My
good
Ladie
,
hauing
〈◊〉
good
〈◊〉
and
succour
as
I
haue
of
you
,
I
haue
no
reason
for
to
feare
all
these
people
,
although
they
were
many
more
than
they
be
.
Thus
they
both
together
went
towards
the
battaile
,
and
gathered
many
people
that
were
scattered
abrode
from
the
fight
.
In
the
meane
time
that
they
were
doing
this
,
the
people
of
Organte
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
their
Captain
was
slaine
,
and
were
verie
strangelie
amazed
for
to
sée
him
in
that
case
,
with
so
terrible
and
mortall
a
thrust
,
and
could
not
imagine
that
anie
mortall
man
could
giue
it
,
and
being
all
of
them
verie
desirous
for
to
be
reuenged
of
his
death
,
they
went
towards
the
campe
,
and
with
a
great
noise
and
shouting
,
they
put
themselues
into
the
middest
of
the
battaile
,
in
such
sort
,
that
by
reason
at
that
present
th●
battaile
was
in
ballance
,
and
that
to
enter
in
a
fresh
,
was
the
occasion
that
the
Gréekes
receiued
great
damage
,
and
the
whole
battaile
like
to
haue
bene
lost
,
for
that
the
Emperour
and
the
rest
of
the
principall
knightes
were
detained
and
a
foote
as
you
haue
heard
.
But
at
this
instant
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
the
most
excellent
and
roiall
Princesse
Claridian●
,
with
more
than
thrée●thousand
knightes
,
such
as
were
dispearsed
and
gone
abroade
,
and
by
them
gathered
together
,
pressed
themselues
into
the
battaile
with
great
fu●ie
and
force
making
great
and
mightie
slaughter
,
in
such
〈…〉
was
more
filled
with
blo●d
,
and
all
those
of
their
parte
recouered
force
and
strength
,
and
to
the
contrarie
parte
the
Pagans
séeing
so
great
slaughter
and
destruction
of
their
people
,
beganne
to
giue
waie
and
to
loose
grounde
.
Now
at
this
time
might
bée
séene
verie
well
accomplished
the
Prophesie
of
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosis
,
for
that
according
vnto
the
great
destruction
that
the
knight
of
the
Sun
and
the
royall
Princesse
made
on
their
enimies
,
it
séemed
that
there
were
not
people
inough
in
all
the
whole
campe
for
to
satisfie
their
furious
appetite
,
and
there
was
not
〈◊〉
one
in
all
the
whole
armie
that
was
in
perfect
securitie
,
from
their
furious
and
bloudie
handes
.
Within
a
while
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
into
the
place
whereas
was
the
good
Emperour
his
Father
a
foote
,
and
so
weary
that
almost
he
could
not
lyft
vp
his
arme
to
his
head
,
hée
and
the
two
Spanish
knightes
,
although
they
had
done
greate
and
meruailous
〈◊〉
and
incredible
wonders
,
yet
were
they
at
the
point
to
haue
béen
slaine
,
for
that
they
were
charged
and
assaulted
by
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
,
and
with
two
mightie
,
great
,
and
deformed
Gyants
,
with
an
infinite
number
of
other
people
,
who
brought
them
into
a
meruailous
perplexitie
.
But
quicklie
they
were
rescued
,
and
their
enimies
deceiued
of
their
prai●
,
for
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
knew
him
to
bée
his
Father
,
with
a
new
force
(
more
than
of
a
knight
,
)
hée
str●ke
one
of
these
Gyantes
such
a
blowe
vnder
the
gorge
of
●is
healme
,
that
hée
cut
his
head
clean●
from
his
bodie
.
The
which
béeing
done
,
with
great
lyghtnesse
hée
turned
himselfe
about
,
and
with
both
his
handes
hée
stroke
such
an
ouerthwart
at
the
other
vpon
his
wast
,
that
almost
〈◊〉
vnto
his
saddle
bowe
hée
parted
him
in
two
péeces
,
and
the
royall
Princesse
stroke
such
another
blowe
vppon
the
healme
of
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
,
that
with
the
incre●ible
force
thereof
shée
cloue
his
head
quite
downe
vnto
h●s
téeth
,
and
ouerthrew
him
dead
at
his
féete
.
The
bloud
waxed
colde
within
their
bodies
,
and
theyr
members
shaked
of
all
them
that
did
sée
these
mortall
and
deformed
blowes
,
in
especiall
those
Pagans
that
were
ther
nigh
at
hande
,
who
had
compassed
about
the
Emperour
,
and
the
other
two
Princes
,
so
that
it
was
not
néedfull
of
anie
other
occasion
for
to
cause
them
to
depart
thence
,
for
that
they
gaue
them
such
entertainment
,
that
they
all
fledde
awaie
,
and
put
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
and
thought
not
themselues
in
anie
securitie
wheresoeuer
they
shoulde
become
.
And
although
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
had
time
and
space
inough
for
to
mount
vppon
his
horse
,
yet
hee
was
so
wearie
,
that
he
had
no
force
for
to
doe
it
.
Likewise
the
two
Spanish
knightes
were
readie
for
to
lie
downe
with
wearinesse
.
The
which
beeing
séene
and
perceiued
by
that
good
Knight
,
with
a
trice
he
alighted
from
his
horse
〈◊〉
,
and
tooke
the
Emperour
his
Father
in
his
armes
,
and
with
his
owne
strength
he
put
him
into
the
saddle
,
and
gaue
vnto
the
two
bretheren
other
two
horses
,
and
with
his
owne
handes
he
mounted
them
.
The
which
béeing
done
,
in
spite
of
all
those
that
were
against
them
,
hée
tooke
vnto
himselfe
the
horse
of
the
king
of
Gandaros
,
which
was
both
strong
and
swift
,
and
with
great
lightnesse
he
leaped
into
the
saddle
,
and
passed
forwardes
on
,
leauing
the
Emperour
Trebatio
no
lesse
amazed
,
than
ioyfull
and
content
,
to
see
the
wonderfull
dé●des
of
his
sonne
,
who
with
new
force
and
strength
,
the
which
hee
recouered
with
that
sodaine
ioy
and
pleasure
,
pressed
forwardes
into
the
battaile
,
being
in
the
middest
betwixt
the
two
Spanish
knightes
,
and
dyd
such
〈◊〉
acts
,
that
it
seemed
he
had
but
as
then
entered
into
the
battaile
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
vnto
the
place
(
with
the
Princesse
Claridiana
)
whereas
they
found
on
foote
the
princes
Bargandel
and
Lyriamandro
,
Rodomarte
&
Rodo●eo
,
Fl●●ndes
and
Florinaldus
,
by
whose
comming
they
were
quicklie
set
at
libertie
,
and
had
space
for
to
mount
them selues
on
horsback
,
the
which
being
done
,
he
did
the
like
vnto
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
&
the
king
Sacridoro
,
&
neuer
staied
til
he
〈◊〉
whereas
the
stout
Oristedes
was
,
which
was
a
strange
thing
to
beholde
,
to
sée
the
great
number
of
dead
bodies
at
his
féete
round
about
him
,
but
by
reason
that
hée
was
ouerpressed
with
so
many
against
him
▪
hée
was
verie
wearie
,
and
almost
out
of
breath
,
which
being
perceiued
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
a
great
good
will
he
did
succour
him
,
slaying
and
ouerthrowing
to
the
ground
all
those
that
he
found
against
him
,
and
of
the
thrée
kings
of
the
Indias
;
the
royall
Princesse
ouerthrew
two
of
them
dead
to
the
ground
,
and
the
third
ranne
awaie
,
for
if
he
had
tarried
,
his
golden
crowne
:
the
which
he
had
on
his
head
,
would
little
haue
auailed
him
.
Then
the
good
Troyan
being
verie
glad
of
that
aduantaged
succour
,
tooke
vnto
him
a
verie
good
horse
,
and
mounting
vpon
him
,
they
all
together
thrust
themselues
into
the
battaile
,
and
neuer
staied
till
they
came
whereas
the
two
Princes
Brandizel
and
Claueryndo
,
who
were
compassed
round
about
with
those
gyantine
knights
,
but
quicklie
they
were
deliuered
out
of
their
hands
,
and
●●●unted
vpon
other
horses
.
At
this
time
were
ioyned
together
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
with
all
the
rest
of
the
worthie
and
valiant
knights
,
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
the
royall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
and
all
was
néedfull
,
for
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
accompanied
with
those
Gyants
his
gard
,
and
with
the
most
principallest
kings
of
their
hoast
;
came
vnto
that
place
of
the
camp
,
making
such
destruction
and
slaughter
,
that
they
alone
had
béene
sufficient
to
haue
got
the
whole
victorie
of
the
field
.
But
being
discouered
by
this
generous
companie
,
they
all
together
moued
towardes
them
,
whose
encounter
was
a
thing
worthie
to
haue
bene
séene
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
the
royall
Princesse
,
with
the
mightie
Emperour
Trebatio
,
Don
Claros
,
and
Arcalus
,
the
two
princes
,
Brandizel
and
Claueryndo
,
the
king
Florion
,
and
the
king
Sacridoro
,
with
the
Tartarian
Zoilo
.
All
the
together
made
their
encounter
against
the
ten
Gyants
of
the
Gard
of
the
Emperour
,
and
that
which
séemed
not
to
be
beléeued
,
and
impossible
to
bée
executed
,
amongest
all
them
that
were
in
the
whole
armie
,
fell
out
n●we
deane
vnto
the
contrarie
,
for
that
euerie
one
of
these
worthie
Princes
missed
not
,
but
ouerthrew
his
aduersarie
to
the
earth
,
either
starke
dead
or
sore
wounded
,
and
although
some
of
them
of
the
Emperour
Trebatios
part
were
vnhorsed
,
yet
quicklie
and
with
a
trice
they
were
mounted
againe
.
And
of
other
twelue
kings
that
were
mightie
and
stout
,
and
of
great
valour
,
that
came
in
companie
with
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
there
remained
but
two
of
them
,
but
all
the
rest
were
ouerthrowen
and
slaine
by
Ba●gandel
and
Lyriamandro
,
Rodomarte
and
Rodofeo
,
Flamides
and
Florinaldus
,
the
sonnes
of
the
gran
Torcato
,
and
the
stout
Rogelio
.
When
these
Pagan
kings
were
slaine
and
ouercome
(
although
the
number
of
Pagans
were
infinit
)
yet
they
beganne
to
loose
ground
,
for
that
they
had
no
other
Captaines
for
to
gouerne
them
,
but
onelie
that
mightie
Pagan
Bramarant
,
who
was
deteined
in
battaile
with
Rosicleer
,
and
the
two
worthie
knights
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
if
there
had
b●ne
many
in
the
campe
lyke
vnto
them
,
before
the
Pagans
would
haue
yeelded
anie
ground
,
there
had
bene
greater
destruction
and
bloud
shed
more
than
there
was
,
but
by
reason
that
they
were
but
two
onelie
,
they
were
not
sufficient
for
to
gouerne
and
rule
them
,
although
they
did
make
so
greate
slaughter
,
that
they
seemed
not
to
be
anie
humane
creatures
.
But
now
was
the
time
come
of
the
good
fortune
and
destinie
promised
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
to
shewe
it selfe
fauourable
,
and
the
Prophesie
before
sayde
by
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
to
worke
effect
,
and
accomplish
the
truth
thereof
in
confirming
of
the
same
,
for
that
the
Pagans
began
to
retire
,
and
night
drew
on
,
and
it
wared
darke
,
they
receiued
great
feare
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
put
themselues
vnto
flight
,
and
ranne
awaie
with
great
shame
,
so
that
a
little
before
the
shutting
of
the
euening
,
the
Pagans
put
themselues
in
such
feare
and
hast
in
running
,
that
there
was
no
force
of
resistance
in
them
,
but
to
be
all
slaine
by
the
Gréekes
,
who
followed
them
at
their
héeles
.
And
the
Emperour
Alycandro
when
that
he
sawe
himselfe
left
alone
without
his
strong
gard
,
and
mightie
kings
(
his
vassals
that
were
wont
to
kéepe
and
beare
him
companie
,
and
all
his
people
)
to
run
awaie
before
him
ouercome
,
and
cleane
without
anie
hope
of
victorie
,
he
larged
the
raines
vnto
his
horse
,
and
ranne
about
the
field
,
complaining
verie
much
against
the
Gods
,
(
whome
he
tooke
to
bée
his
parents
and
kinsfolke
)
as
also
against
Fortune
,
for
shewing
her selfe
so
contrarie
against
him
:
but
most
he
complained
against
himselfe
,
for
putting
so
great
confidence
and
trust
in
his
owne
power
,
in
that
hée
would
not
giue
anie
credit
vnto
the
good
and
true
counsailes
of
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
and
going
in
this
sort
,
he
came
vnto
his
Tents
,
and
taking
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
and
the
rest
of
the
Ladies
and
Damsels
that
were
with
her
,
with
other
such
things
as
conueniently
he
could
,
hée
fled
downe
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whereas
was
all
his
whole
Fléete
,
whereof
the
Christians
had
burnt
a
great
part
of
them
,
such
as
were
at
the
Sea
,
for
although
the
saide
ships
of
the
Christians
were
but
few
in
number
,
yet
when
that
they
sawe
the
great
destruction
that
was
made
on
the
land
,
they
recouered
great
courage
●or
to
assault
them
that
were
at
the
Sea
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
set
fire
on
manye
shippes
that
were
in
the
Fléete
,
in
spite
of
them
that
were
there
,
for
that
they
found
small
resistance
.
Thus
as
I
haue
saide
before
,
when
the
Emperour
came
vnto
the
Sea
side
,
there
was
so
great
hast
of
embarking
,
that
with
great
trauaile
hée
embarked
himselfe
▪
into
a
shippe
with
those
that
came
with
him
,
and
being
embarked
,
yet
he
thought
not
himselfe
in
anie
securitie
,
but
in
great
hast
caused
the
Sailes
to
bée
spread
abroade
,
and
launched
themselues
into
the
Sea
,
leauing
all
this
troupe
and
power
ouerthrowen
in
Grecia
.
Then
the
Prince
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
when
that
they
sawe
how
that
the
people
were
dispearsed
,
and
that
by
no
meanes
possible
they
coulde
not
staie
them
from
flying
and
running
awaie
.
Then
went
they
from
one
place
vnto
another
séeking
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
but
could
not
finde
him
,
till
such
time
as
they
came
vnto
the
Sea
side
,
whereas
it
was
tolde
them
how
that
hée
was
embarked
into
a
shippe
,
and
departed
with
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
and
the
other
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
that
were
in
her
companie
amongst
whome
was
the
faire
Princesse
Floralinda
,
spouse
vnto
the
Prince
Meridian
,
who
when
that
hée
vnderstoode
of
their
departure
,
dyd
straight
wayes
embarke
himselfe
in
another
shippe
,
and
followed
after
them
.
In
all
this
while
the
Gréekes
vnderstoode
in
no
other
thing
but
in
killing
and
slaying
of
Pagans
as
they
ranne
awaie
,
and
made
such
slaughter
,
as
in
all
the
daie
before
was
not
the
lyke
,
at
which
time
all
the
water
in
the
Tirreno
sea
,
from
the
●geo
vnto
the
Euxino
,
was
redde
,
and
turned
into
the
coulour
of
bloud
,
with
the
great
quantitie
that
were
slaine
as
well
on
the
sea
as
on
the
land
,
which
was
a
thing
of
great
terrour
and
wonder
to
beholde
.
But
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
when
he
sawe
that
the
battaile
was
dispearsed
,
and
how
that
the
Pagans
sledde
before
them
,
hée
made
no
farther
account
of
them
,
but
went
and
sought
for
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
;
fearing
that
in
the
moouing
and
running
of
the
people
they
should
receiue
some
damage
or
harme
.
The
which
he
would
not
that
it
should
so
fall
out
for
anie
thing
in
all
the
world
,
for
that
hée
considered
verie
well
in
his
minde
how
much
he
was
bound
vnto
them
for
the
great
loue
which
they
bare
vnto
him
.
And
when
he
came
vnto
the
Tents
,
he
went
from
one
vnto
another
,
enquiring
for
the
Emperour
,
and
it
was
tolde
him
how
they
were
fled
and
gone
,
wherewith
he
gallopped
his
horse
till
hée
came
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whereas
hée
sawe
the
Pagans
making
great
hast
for
to
embarke
themselues
,
and
many
of
them
did
swimme
aboord
,
because
they
would
not
abide
the
furie
of
the
Greekes
a
land
.
Then
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
came
vnto
one
of
those
Pagans
,
and
put
the
point
of
his
sword
to
his
face
,
and
sayd
that
hee
would
kill
him
,
if
hée
dyd
not
tell
him
newes
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
.
Then
the
Pagan
who
sawe
him
depart
for
feare
of
death
;
tolde
him
how
that
he
was
departed
from
thence
in
a
ship
,
with
the
princesse
Lyndabrides
and
all
her
Ladies
and
gentlewomen
.
Whereat
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
heard
of
their
departure
he
was
verie
sorrowfull
,
as
well
for
the
perill
in
the
which
they
put
themselues
,
as
also
for
that
hée
would
haue
done
vnto
them
the
honour●
and
seruice
that
they
deserued
,
and
for
that
his
valiant
courage
could
not
suffer
that
they
should
depart
in
such
sorte
,
with
a
setled
purpose
and
determination
full
of
vertue
,
he
put
himselfe
into
a
Boate
,
and
caused
the
Marriners
to
rowe
him
vnto
a
good
ship
that
was
there
at
hande
,
whereas
he
found
certaine
knights
that
did
resist
him
at
his
entrie
,
whom
he
slew
,
and
threatned
the
Maister
and
Marriners
that
he
woulde
lykewise
kill
them
if
they
did
not
gouerne
the
ship
right
that
waie
which
the
Emperour
Alycandro
was
departed
and
gone
.
Then
they
who
sawe
the
great
destruction
that
hée
had
made
in
so
short
a
time
,
being
greatlie
amazed
thereat
,
and
with
great
fea●e
did
obey
all
that
he
commanded
,
so
that
in
companie
with
the
other
ships
,
they
hoised
saile
,
and
departed
through
that
bloudie
sea
,
whereas
we
wil
leaue
them
in
their
iourney
,
and
returne
vnto
them
that
were
left
in
the
field
.
At
this
time
the
good
Emperour
Trebatio
when
he
saw
the
night
come
on
a
pace
,
and
that
it
waxed
darke
,
being
verie
wearie
he
all
&
his
companie
in
killing
of
pagans
,
began
to
blow
and
sound
his
rich
horne
,
which
lyke
a
good
Captai●e
he
carried
alwaies
about
his
necke
,
and
he
dyd
sound
it
i●
such
sort
,
that
in
all
those
broade
and
wide
fields
it
was
heard
,
at
which
sound
all
his
people
dyd
obey
his
commandement
,
and
gathered
themselues
together
.
But
yet
in
all
this
time
the
battaile
betwixt
Rosicleer
and
Bramarant
neuer
ceased
,
but
rather
as
then
was
more
furious
and
kindled
in
wrath
,
and
they
did
no
other
thing
but
procure
to
charge
the
one
the
other
with
their
terrible
blowes
,
all
that
euer
they
could
.
At
which
time
Bramarant
thought
not
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
had
bene
spoiled
and
lost
the
victorie
,
but
rather
suspected
that
the
Greekes
had
lost
the
field
,
but
verie
quicklie
hée
was
put
out
of
that
doubt
,
for
that
by
reason
of
the
great
noise
which
they
made
in
their
battaile
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
all
those
worthie
Princes
that
were
on
his
part
,
came
thether
whereas
they
were
,
for
as
then
they
were
all
ioyned
together
,
&
put
themselues
round
about
these
two
warriours
,
with
determination
for
to
part
them
from
that
contension
:
but
this
valiant
and
worthie
pagan
when
he
saw
them
in
that
sort
,
and
knew
them
,
hee
was
greatly
amazed
,
and
straight
waies
suspected
that
they
had
got
the
victorie
,
who
as
then
with
a
hoarse
voyce
and
proude
semblant
,
sayd
.
Oh
fortune
,
how
is
it
that
thou
hast
had
so
great
power
,
for
to
shew
thy selfe
so
contrarie
against
the
pagans
:
who
is
that
mightie
and
valiant
prince
that
hath
had
so
great
force
for
to
ouerthrow
the
mightie
Alicandro
and
the
gran
Campion
my
father
,
who
was
sufficient
to
set
fier
on
all
the
whole
worlde
.
To
whome
Rosicleer
answered
and
said
,
if
thou
wilt
know
him
it
is
easie
to
bee
vnderstood
,
for
I
doe
giue
thée
to
vnderstand
that
all
which
is
here
done
,
commeth
alonely
of
him
,
that
dyd
create
and
make
all
things
,
and
hath
power
ouer
all
men
,
and
at
his
will
is
gouerned
both
nature
and
fortune
.
And
this
is
Iesus
Christ
true
God
and
man
,
in
whome
all
christians
doe
beleeue
and
worship
:
and
it
hath
bene
his
pleasure
to
giue
vs
the
victorie
against
so
many
thousands
of
Pagans
,
by
the
which
thou
maist
vnderstand
,
how
false
and
deceiuable
be
your
Gods
,
who
were
not
able
for
to
ayde
and
succour
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
who
presumeth
to
desend
from
the
race
,
and
stocke
.
Then
this
proude
Pagan
replyed
and
sayde
,
I
neuer
beleeued
in
any
gods
,
neither
am
I
now
determined
to
beleeue
in
any
,
for
that
both
their
gods
&
thyne
,
and
all
the
rest
,
I
holde
them
for
my
enimies
,
and
I
will
spoyle
them
all
where
soeuer
I
may
finde
or
méete
with
them
.
And
in
saying
these
words
he
raysed
himselfe
in
his
stirrups
,
and
with
his
sword
in
both
his
hands
he
stroke
so
strong
a
blow
at
Rosicleer
vppon
his
inchaunted
healme
,
that
it
séemed
a
Thunderbolt
to
haue
fallen
from
heauen
,
the
noyse
was
so
great
,
which
made
him
somewhat
astonished
:
But
when
this
Pagan
sawe
that
he
was
compassed
about
with
so
much
people
,
&
that
it
was
night
,
he
thought
it
not
good
to
abide
there
anie
longer
,
but
set
spurres
vnto
his
horse
,
and
rushed
thorough
the
thickest
of
them
,
&
ouer
,
threw
to
the
ground
all
them
that
was
in
his
way
,
&
lyke
a
whirle
winde
he
runneth
through
those
fields
,
and
neuer
stayed
till
he
came
into
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
with
intension
not
to
depart
from
thence
till
such
time
as
he
hadde
very
well
and
to
his
contentment
reuenged
the
death
of
his
father
.
Rosicleer
would
verie
faine
haue
followed
him
,
for
that
he
hadde
a
great
desire
for
to
conclude
and
giue
ende
vnto
that
battaile
,
but
the
Emperour
his
father
and
those
that
were
with
him
dyd
distrube
him
.
Then
when
they
sawe
themselues
together
,
and
missed
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
were
greatly
amazed
,
and
seperated
themselues
some
one
way
and
some
an
other
waye
,
and
went
into
all
places
for
to
séeke
him
:
but
when
that
in
all
the
whole
field
they
could
not
finde
him
,
they
could
not
immagine
where
hée
should
bée
,
for
the
which
they
were
all
very
sad
and
sorrowfull
,
but
in
especiall
the
royall
princes
Claridiana
,
for
that
she
thought
euery
hower
a
yéere
till
she
hadde
spoken
with
him
,
and
trauailed
from
one
place
to
an
other
with
great
care
in
his
demaund
,
but
could
not
finde
him
,
nor
haue
anie
newes
of
him
,
till
in
the
ende
of
great
enquirie
,
it
was
tolde
her
by
a
souldier
that
he
dyd
sée
him
embarke
himselfe
in
a
shippe
,
and
all
that
he
procured
was
for
to
know
some
newes
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
.
When
she
heard
this
,
she
was
somewhat
quieted
in
her selfe
,
and
went
and
informed
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
thereof
,
who
with
all
the
rest
of
the
other
princes
receued
great
ioye
,
and
began
at
that
instant
to
celebrate
and
reioyce
the
la●e
victorie
wonne
,
and
in
very
good
order
retourned
to
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
where
as
they
were
in
the
armes
of
those
Ladies
,
with
such
ioye
,
as
the
reader
may
iudge
,
yet
I
must
néedes
say
,
that
if
the
absence
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
not
mittigated
somewhat
the
extremitie
of
their
pleasure
,
there
had
neuer
bene
in
Grecia
the
like
ioye
and
triumph
.
Let
vs
now
leaue
them
in
all
their
pastimes
,
for
that
I
am
sure
this
long
chapter
hath
somewhat
wearied
you
,
and
let
vs
retourne
to
tell
you
of
other
thinges
wherein
you
shall
receiue
pleasure
and
delight
.

How
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
sayling
by
sea

was
through
a
tempest
,
by
the
which
he
was
driuen
vnto
the
strong
Iland
,
whereas
they
were
taken
prisoners

Chap.
39.
WIth
great
sorrow
and
heauinesse
of
heart
dyd
the
Emperour
Alicandro
nauigate
the
Sea
,
with
the
faire
and
precious
Princes
Lindabrides
,
in
companie
with
a
small
number
of
Knightes
that
entred
into
the
ship
with
him
:
who
when
they
considered
with
what
great
pomp
and
force
they
entred
into
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
&
with
what
disgrace
they
departed
from
thence
,
their
hearts
were
readie
to
breake
with
sorrrw
,
for
that
they
saw
no
other
thing
,
(
of
so
great
a
number
of
thousands
of
people
that
they
brought
with
them
out
of
their
countries
)
but
onely
the
water
of
the
Sea
,
couered
with
bloud
,
and
a
few
other
shippes
full
of
people
that
had
escaped
from
the
furie
of
the
Gréekes
,
some
one
way
,
and
some
an
other
,
without
any
order
,
but
whether
soeuer
the
wynde
&
fortune
would
carrie
them
.
The
night
was
very
dark
,
so
that
the
ship
of
the
Emperor
was
all
alone
,
&
fortune
who
would
shew
her selfe
more
contrarie
for
to
giue
●im
to
〈…〉
what
small
trust
there
was
in
her
,
it
happen
that
in
the
night
there
arose
a
great
●●mpest
,
that
dyd
not
onelie
hinder
them
of
their
iourney
,
but
also
dyd
put
the
shippe
many
times
in
great
daunger
to
be
drowned
,
so
that
the
marriners
and
such
as
were
in
the
shippe
,
had
enough
to
doe
,
for
to
voyde
and
cast
out
the
water
,
that
was
forced
in
by
that
tempest
,
and
the
faire
princesse
Lindabrides
,
with
all
her
ladies
and
gentlewomen
,
receiued
so
great
feare
that
they
all
amased
remained
as
dead
persons
:
although
vnto
this
faire
princesse
,
the
griefe
was
not
so
much
in
beholding
before
her
eyes
,
that
great
perill
of
death
in
the
which
they
were
brought
,
as
to
sée
her selfe
in
that
sorte
for
to
depart
from
Grecia
,
where
as
remained
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
and
againe
to
consider
how
euell
her
purpose
and
desire
was
brought
to
passe
,
so
that
she
remained
without
all
hope
or
remedie
.
And
prayed
vnto
her
gods
and
fortune
,
not
to
appease
the
torment
,
but
to
be
so
contrarie
vnto
their
iourney
,
that
they
might
retourne
againe
(
by
the
force
thereof
)
into
Grecia
,
either
a
liue
or
dead
:
for
that
she
thought
in
her
heart
,
that
there
was
no
death
could
be
more
crueller
vnto
her
,
then
to
retourne
into
her
owne
countrie
whereas
she
should
lose
all
hope
euer
for
to
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
In
this
sort
vttering
great
and
profound
sighes
,
which
procéeded
from
the
bottome
of
her
heart
,
she
sayd
as
followeth
.
Oh
my
soule
,
depart
and
leaue
this
my
sorowfull
and
afflicted
bodie
,
séeing
that
my
fortune
and
cruel
destinie
wil
that
I
shal
leaue
the
land
whereas
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
doth
remaine
:
Oh
you
wyndes
and
celestiall
mouinges
,
that
doth
carrie
the
shippes
vpon
the
Seas
,
here
and
there
in
all
places
,
carrie
vs
now
into
some
parte
whereas
wée
may
be
taken
prisoners
by
some
Grecian
,
and
carryed
before
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
for
that
it
shall
be
vnto
mée
more
comfortable
to
be
prisoner
and
〈◊〉
in
his
pallas
,
then
to
be
Quéene
in
the
gran
Scithia
or
Empresse
in
Tart●ria
.
Oh
you
blouddie
waues
●ossed
vp
and
downe
by
the
furi●●s
wyndes
,
and
forced
into
riuers
,
show
your selues
so
fauorable
vnto
mée
,
that
when
by
this
torment
and
storme
,
we
shal
be
drowned
,
you
would
(
dead
as
I
shal
be
left
)
carrie
me
vnto
some
part
of
Grecia
,
for
that
possible
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
hearing
of
my
death
,
will
not
be
so
cruell
but
that
he
will
giue
sepulture
vnto
this
my
vnhappie
bodie
,
and
at
times
remember
mée
,
and
be
sorrowfull
for
this
my
vntimely
and
cruell
death
.
Ah
when
that
this
shall
lacke
in
him
,
yet
shall
my
sorrowfull
bones
take
comfort
,
in
that
they
shall
remaine
in
so
glorious
and
happie
a
land
.
In
vttering
of
these
and
manie
other
things
of
great
griefe
,
did
this
sorrowfull
princesse
nauigate
,
and
with
so
great
trouble
of
minde
,
that
I
doe
verelie
beleeue
,
if
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
heard
them
,
he
would
haue
hadde
great
compassion
on
her
.
Likewise
it
was
of
no
lesse
sorow
&
griefe
to
sée
the
demeanour
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
for
that
the
day
before
he
saw
himselfe
in
the
estate
to
bée
lord
ouer
all
the
whole
world
,
and
at
this
present
for
to
be
a
land
in
his
owne
countrie
,
he
would
haue
bene
content
to
haue
had
the
gouernement
,
and
to
be
lorde
of
a
poore
castell
:
an
estate
vnlooked
for
,
&
they
that
doe
thinke
to
sléepe
in
great
securitie
,
whome
fortune
hath
put
in
the
highest
part
of
her
mouable
and
inconstant
whéele
,
they
may
well
behold
this
Emperour
,
for
that
possible
he
may
be
vnto
them
a
greater
securitie
,
and
cause
them
to
loose
the
condicion
of
hope
that
alwayes
they
had
in
her
,
for
that
alwaies
when
that
she
dothe
once
beginne
to
frowne
and
to
tourne
her
back
vnto
any
,
she
is
not
content
to
touch
them
with
a
little
aduersitie
,
but
will
so
follow
them
,
as
their
fall
shal
be
equal
vnto
their
first
triumph
of
exalting
,
as
by
experience
you
shall
sée
in
this
Emperour
,
who
was
not
content
to
bring
him
into
this
estate
of
perplexitie
,
but
straight
waies
did
ordaine
a
greater
and
crueller
conclusion
greatly
to
be
considered
of
:
for
that
the
next
day
in
the
morning
at
such
time
as
the
Sunne
did
arise
,
the
furious
force
of
the
windes
and
seas
,
did
carrie
their
ship
into
the
port
of
any
land
,
with
so
great
extremitie
,
that
it
brake
all
to
péeces
,
and
they
with
great
trauaile
escaped
,
being
all
wet
,
out
of
comfort
,
and
in
a
place
vnknowen
,
and
for
that
you
shal
be
certified
of
the
comfort
and
ease
that
they
found
there
.
You
shall
vnderstand
that
this
was
called
the
strong
Ilande
,
the
most
famous
in
all
the
Tirreno
Sea
,
it
is
called
strong
,
for
that
it
is
all
compassed
round
about
with
the
Sea
,
&
on
the
parts
towards
the
sea
,
high
and
mightie
Rockes
,
and
hath
no
entring
into
it
but
onely
one
part
,
in
the
which
the
Emperor
Alicandro
and
his
companie
were
driuen
by
force
of
that
great
tempest
:
at
the
entrie
of
the
same
sort
,
was
two
great
high
and
mightie
towers
,
and
of
great
strength
,
and
at
the
foote
of
them
into
the
Iland
,
a
great
and
large
plaine
,
in
the
which
was
manie
gallant
peaceable
and
freshe
fountaines
,
that
dyd
inuite
all
them
that
passed
by
,
to
take
their
ease
and
repast
,
and
beyond
the
same
plaine
,
there
was
a
beautifull
mountaine
,
vppon
the
which
was
edified
a
verie
faire
castell
and
strong
,
compassed
round
about
with
a
high
wall
▪
and
watch
towers
,
with
a
〈◊〉
very
broade
&
déepe
,
vpon
the
which
was
a
drawen
bridge
of
timber
,
and
before
the
same
a
gallant
little
plaine
in
maner
of
&
court
.
The
highest
part
of
the
tower
was
full
of
windowes
and
galleries
▪
some
towards
the
Sea
,
and
others
towards
the
entrie
of
the
saide
Castell
,
so
that
for
strength
and
beautie
,
in
all
the
whole
Sea
,
was
not
an
Iland
to
be
found
equall
vnto
the
same
▪
but
onely
that
of
Lindaraza
,
the
which
was
edified
and
made
by
arte
of
inchantment
.
The
Lord
of
this
Iland
was
a
Gyant
,
called
Roboan
,
who
by
liniall
dissent
doth
procéede
from
Nemroth
,
he
that
built
the
high
and
statelie
tower
of
Babel
▪
and
from
his
time
to
that
daye
,
hath
bene
maintained
and
gouerned
,
by
that
linage
,
as
appeared
by
olde
and
ancient
writings
which
they
had
amongst
them
.
This
Roboan
was
verie
bigge
of
bodie
,
and
of
strength
more
th●n
anie
other
Gyant
,
and
he
hadde
foure
sonnes
all
young
men
,
the
most
stoutest
and
grymmest
that
was
to
be
found
amongst
▪
all
the
Ilands
of
the
Sea
.
So
that
by
the
〈◊〉
of
them
,
as
also
〈◊〉
the
great
strength
of
the
Ilande
,
Roboan
〈…〉
all
the
whole
world
,
if
they
coem
against
him
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
he
dyd
great
harm●
and
robberies
at
the
Sea
.
And
dyd
maintaine
in
his
Iland
an
ill
custome
,
which
was
,
that
euerie
time
at
the
wayne
of
the
Moone
,
he
did
sacrifice
two
damsells
,
the
most
fairest
that
could
be
found
,
and
when
that
the
Moone
did
increase
he
dyd
sacrifice
two
knights
,
the
which
they
dyd
,
by
the
encreasing
of
their
great
sinnes
,
whereby
his
a●ncestours
did
fall
into
a
great
and
abhominable
Idolatrie
,
to
honour
and
worship
the
Moone
,
without
knowing
any
other
God
or
Lord
,
but
onely
her
,
saying
,
that
with
her
brightnesse
she
dyd
illuminate
the
earth
,
and
cause
it
to
engender
Gyants
,
and
that
she
wa●
the
occasion
that
the
earth
dyd
bring
forth
all
maner
of
fruites
and
hearbes
,
for
the
which
occasion
they
hadde
her
for
their
Goddesse
and
Mother
.
Also
they
sayd
,
that
when
the
Moone
was
in
the
waine
,
she
dyd
hide
her
brightnesse
for
that
she
was
angrie
with
men
:
for
which
cause
they
did
sacrifice
vnto
her
two
damsels
,
because
with
their
bloud
as
they
saide
,
her
anger
was
appeased
.
And
at
such
time
as
she
did
beginne
to
increase
,
they
did
sacrifice
vnto
her
two
knights
,
in
giuing
to
vnderstand
,
that
they
did
acknowledge
her
for
their
Goddesse
.
And
for
the
executing
of
the
same
,
they
hadde
caused
to
be
made
betwixt
the
two
towers
in
a
verie
faire
plaine
,
a
rich
and
gorgeous
throne
of
Alablaster
,
nigh
vnto
a
faire
cleane
and
cléere
fountaine
,
whereas
Roboan
prostrate
vppon
his
knées
,
and
apparailed
with
white
garments
,
and
a
towell
vpon
his
shoulder
,
did
make
this
Sacrifice
,
cutting
of
the
heads
of
those
damsels
and
knights
with
a
broade
&
sharpe
knife
.
This
order
and
custome
was
maintained
and
kept
in
that
Iland
by
the
auncestors
of
Roboan
,
euer
since
the
time
that
they
fell
into
that
diuelish
Idolatrie
.
And
this
Roboan
did
kéepe
and
celebrate
the
same
with
greater
care
and
diligence
,
then
all
his
auncesters
had
done
before
him
,
in
such
sort
that
on
a
time
at
the
waine
of
the
Moone
,
hauing
in
his
custodie
but
one
damsell
for
to
Sacrifi●e
,
because
hée
would
not
lacke
the
number
of
two
,
hée
dyd
Sacrifice
a
daughter
of
his
owne
,
whome
he
lo●ed
verymuch
,
●he
which
extremitie
afterwards
was
the
occasion
that
he
put
such
diligence
to
séeke
out
for
〈◊〉
and
knights
,
that
alwaies
after
they
had
still
great
sorrow
.
The
sonnes
of
this
Gyant
were
named
,
the
first
Langereon
,
the
second
Andricardo
,
the
third
Rubero
,
the
fourth
Ac●orante
▪
all
the
which
were
very
well
spoken
and
of
good
conditions
,
and
had
no
other
fault
amongst
th●m
but
blindenesse
in
that
cursed
law
&
custome
,
wherein
they
did
so
much
estéeme
them selues
,
that
all
the
world
besides
they
made
little
accompt
off
,
as
though
they
were
of
small
valour
,
as
well
in
state
of
degrée
,
as
in
obseruing
their
law
,
with
valiant
force
and
strength
.
And
at
such
time
as
they
dyd
●elebrate
their
sacrifice
vnto
the
Moone
,
whome
they
worshipped
as
their
God
,
the
higher
of
bloud
that
those
damsels
&
knights
were
that
they
did
sacrifice
,
the
more
was
their
ioye
and
pleasure
.
And
they
pardoned
none
although
she
were
a
Quéene
.
Two
of
these
his
sonnes
were
alwaies
in
the
two
Towers
at
the
〈◊〉
side
at
the
port
,
with
diuers
other
knights
that
dyd
beare
them
companie
,
&
when
that
any
by
fortune
or
other
wise
ariued
in
their
port
,
they
dyd
take
&
apprehend
them
.
The
other
two
were
continually
at
the
Sea
,
apprehending
and
taking
prisoners
all
that
euer
they
dyd
méete
,
and
hauing
taken
any
pray
,
they
returned
vnto
the
Iland
.
Their
father
Roboan
,
was
in
the
castle
with
his
wife
,
who
was
lady
Gyantesse
,
and
many
times
he
would
descend
vnto
his
sonnes
in
the
two
towers
,
&
they
likewise
vnto
the
castell
,
when
that
it
was
their
pleasure
for
to
méete
.
This
was
the
Iland
whereas
the
Emperour
Alicandro
with
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
and
all
her
Ladies
and
gentlewomen
ariued
,
who
were
scarce
out
of
the
water
a
land
,
when
that
they
were
beset
and
apprehended
by
the
two
gyants
,
Lange●eon
&
Andricardo
.
who
were
in
the
towers
with
their
knights
.
And
although
some
that
came
with
the
Emperour
would
put
themselues
in
d●se●ce
,
yet
dyd
it
little
profit
them
,
for
that
the
two
bretheren
were
such
that
they
would
not
haue
〈◊〉
one
of
them
aliue
,
if
they
hadde
not
yéelded
themselues
prisoners
.
Then
the
two
brethren
with
as
great
ioy
and
pleasure
as
euer
they
receiued
in
their
liues
to
sée
themselues
possessed
with
so
rich
a
praie
of
damsels
,
went
vp
into
the
Castle
with
them
,
sauing
one
damsell
of
the
Princesses
,
(
for
that
she
would
not
sée
her selfe
in
the
power
of
those
Gyantes
)
woulde
put
her
lyfe
in
aduenture
for
to
escape
from
them
,
and
ranne
and
put
her selfe
amongst
a
companie
of
Rockes
,
whose
fortune
was
so
fauourable
(
for
that
there
was
a
great
number
of
them
)
that
she
was
not
séene
,
so
that
she
remained
there
all
alone
hidden
amongest
the
Rockes
.
And
héere
you
shall
vnderstand
that
this
was
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
she
that
forged
and
made
the
sword
that
Rosicleer
wonne
in
great
Britaine
of
Candramarte
,
who
came
in
companie
with
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
out
of
the
gran
Tartaria
.
Thus
when
the
Emperour
and
all
those
damsels
were
carried
into
the
Castle
,
Roboan
receiued
great
ioy
and
pleasure
for
the
rich
praie
,
and
it
seemed
vnto
him
that
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
was
the
fairest
creature
that
euer
he
had
séene
in
all
his
life
,
and
he
sayd
that
with
the
bloud
of
so
high
a
Damsell
,
their
Goddes
the
Moone
,
shoulde
receiue
great
contentment
,
and
cause
the
fruits
of
their
Countrie
to
bring
forth
in
greater
abundaunce
than
heeretofore
it
hath
done
,
and
commanded
straight
waies
that
they
should
be
put
in
holde
and
good
assurance
,
their
prison
was
ordained
in
the
highest
part
of
all
the
Castle
,
whereas
were
great
galleries
and
battlements
,
from
whence
they
might
discerne
all
the
whole
Iland
,
and
a
great
part
of
the
Sea
.
But
when
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
sawe
himselfe
prisoner
vnto
such
euill
and
vnmercifull
people
,
and
well
vnderstoode
to
what
end
they
were
prisoners
,
you
may
well
iudge
the
sorrow
and
griefe
that
he
receiued
at
his
heart
,
who
before
was
Lorde
ouer
so
many
Countries
,
and
of
power
more
than
anie
one
in
all
the
whole
worlde
,
and
now
to
bée
prisoner
in
the
custodie
and
power
of
them
that
at
his
first
entrie
heard
the
sentence
of
his
death
.
The
Princesse
Lyndabrides
of
this
imprisonment
receiued
no
great
griefe
,
for
that
shée
was
not
farre
parted
from
the
Empire
of
Grecia
,
but
dyd
comfort
her selfe
verie
much
,
for
that
shée
hoped
in
some
time
for
to
sée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
being
in
that
place
,
and
not
in
the
gran
Tartaria
,
whether
as
her
Father
dyd
carrie
her
.
And
she
said
within
her selfe
,
that
forasmuch
as
in
that
land
they
dyd
commit
and
vse
so
greate
crueltie
against
Ladies
and
damsells
,
it
could
not
be
,
but
at
one
time
or
at
another
,
it
should
come
vnto
the
eares
and
hearing
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
was
of
so
valiant
a
courage
and
generositie
,
that
he
would
not
let
,
but
to
proue
and
force
himselfe
to
take
awaie
that
great
crueltie
and
disobedience
against
God
,
and
had
so
great
confidence
in
his
worthinesse
and
valour
,
that
hauing
him
before
her
,
she
estéemed
all
the
world
as
nothing
.
Let
vs
now
leaue
them
in
this
their
sorrow
and
griefe
,
for
that
you
doe
well
vnderstand
héereby
the
small
securitie
that
is
in
fortune
,
how
hurtfull
a
thing
it
is
for
to
abandon
wise
counsaile
,
and
to
leane
so
much
vnto
her
who●le
,
as
dyd
this
Emperour
in
the
great
and
ouermuch
confidence
that
he
had
in
her
,
for
that
she
had
put
him
in
so
high
estate
,
he
did
estéeme
the
wise
counsaile
of
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
as
nothing
,
and
for
that
he
woulde
not
vse
thereof
,
hée
was
brought
into
the
estate
whereas
wée
now
lefte
him
.
Let
vs
now
tell
of
such
other
thinges
as
happened
in
the
meane
time
.
How
Rosicleer
departed
out
of
Constantinople
in
the
demand
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
how
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
following
the
Emperour
Alycandro
ariued
at
the
strong
Iland
,
and
what
happened
about
the
same
.
Chap.
40.
THe
next
daie
after
the
fierce
and
bloudie
battaile
,
which
was
the
whole
expedition
of
Constantinople
,
all
such
Pagans
as
remained
aliue
(
which
was
but
the
third
parte
of
those
which
came
from
the
gran
Tartaria
)
fled
and
ranne
awaie
towards
the
sea
coast
,
whereas
they
embarked
themselues
,
so
that
there
remained
but
certaine
kings
and
nobles
,
such
as
were
knowen
,
and
were
prisoners
vnto
the
Gréekes
.
At
which
time
the
Emperour
Trebatio
with
all
his
nobles
,
hauing
a
great
good
will
to
celebrate
with
triumph
the
great
and
ioyfull
victorie
which
God
had
giuen
them
,
were
greatlie
disturbed
by
the
absence
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
without
him
it
seemed
that
they
could
not
reioyce
,
nor
take
anie
ioy
or
pleasure
,
for
which
occasion
at
that
instant
departed
many
knights
from
the
Court
,
in
the
demaund
and
seeking
of
him
,
amongest
whom
Rosideer
was
one
,
who
departed
al
alone
from
Constantinople
,
and
in
such
sorte
that
he
was
not
knowen
,
neither
would
he
carrie
anie
bodie
with
him
,
for
that
hee
had
great
desire
for
to
méete
with
Bramarant
,
and
to
conclude
with
him
the
battaile
,
before
that
anie
knight
be
present
for
to
separate
or
part
them
,
and
comming
vnto
the
sea
side
,
whereas
he
could
not
heare
anie
newes
of
him
,
he
straight
waies
there
embarked
himselfe
into
a
ship
,
whereas
we
wil
leaue
him
and
all
the
rest
in
Constantinople
,
for
to
tell
you
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
being
verie
desirous
for
to
ouertake
the
Emperour
Alycand●o
and
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
na●●gating
by
Sea
,
was
lykewise
the
same
night
constrained
with
the
torment
(
that
tooke
the
Emperour
)
for
to
loose
his
waie
.
But
whether
it
was
by
the
will
of
God
it
should
so
fall
out
,
for
that
the
end
thereof
was
verie
good
,
or
else
by
the
arte
of
the
wise
Ly●gandeo
,
or
else
by
good
fortune
that
gouerned
his
shippe
,
in
such
sorte
the
worthie
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
throwen
by
force
of
the
sayde
storme
and
tempest
into
the
porte
of
the
strong
Ilande
,
the
which
béeing
perceiued
and
knowen
by
the
Mariners
,
they
would
straight
wayes
haue
departed
from
thence
,
hauing
that
quiet
p●rte
farre
more
perillous
than
to
bée
at
the
Sea
,
with
that
great
storme
and
tempest
,
whose
great
feare
béeing
manifest
vnto
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
,
hee
was
verie
desirous
to
knowe
the
occasion
thereof
,
and
they
declared
the
cause
,
verie
much
extolling
the
force
and
strength
of
Roboan
,
and
of
his
sonnes
,
as
also
of
the
great
crueltie
that
was
vsed
there
,
with
such
knights
and
damsells
as
they
did
take
.
And
although
the
knight
of
the
Sun
would
first
haue
accomplished
his
voyage
in
following
of
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
and
haue
left
that
enterprise
vntill
some
other
time
,
yet
for
all
that
,
séeing
that
it
woulde
lyttle
profite
for
to
returne
vnto
the
Sea
,
by
reason
that
the
waues
were
greatlie
increased
with
the
force
of
the
storme
,
hée
determined
with
himselfe
to
go
a
land
,
and
in
the
meane
time
till
it
pleased
God
to
appease
the
rage
of
the
weather
,
he
would
put
in
practise
to
sée
if
hée
could
doe
anie
thing
against
those
people
,
for
to
cause
them
to
breake
that
euill
and
diuellish
custome
,
and
as
hée
was
determined
within
himselfe
,
hée
put
it
in
vre
,
but
the
marriners
would
not
enter
into
the
Port
,
nor
boord
their
ship
aland
with
a
good
will
,
but
he
did
so
threaten
them
that
he
made
them
by
force
to
doe
all
that
he
commanded
.
When
that
hée
was
a
land
,
and
had
not
well
mounted
vpon
his
horse
,
(
which
was
that
which
hée
wonne
from
the
king
of
the
Gandaros
in
the
battaile
,
)
there
came
forth
against
him
ten
knightes
on
horsebacke
,
and
as
many
on
foote
,
all
armed
,
with
their
hatchets
of
armes
in
their
hands
,
and
bad
him
to
yéeld
to
them
as
prisoner
,
and
some
of
them
approched
to
laie
hands
on
his
horse
bridle
.
But
this
good
knight
answered
not
one
worde
vnto
these
villanous
people
,
but
hauing
his
Speare
in
his
hande
,
stroke
one
of
them
such
a
blowe
therewith
,
that
his
strong
armour
dyd
not
profite
him
,
but
hée
ouerthrew
him
backwardes
starke
dead
vnto
the
ground
,
and
as
one
that
as
then
was
not
to
learne
to
shedde
the
bloud
of
such
vnhappie
wretches
,
in
a
short
time
hée
made
such
slaughter
amongest
them
,
that
there
escaped
no
more
aliue
but
thrée
of
them
,
who
fledde
and
ranne
with
all
hast
possible
vnto
the
Castle
,
which
was
vppon
the
little
mountaine
,
whereas
were
the
two
oldest
bretheren
,
Langereon
and
Andricardo
,
with
Roboan
their
Father
,
for
that
after
that
they
had
carried
prisoner
vnto
the
Castell
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
and
his
companie
,
vntill
that
time
they
had
not
descended
vnto
their
Towers
,
whereas
they
were
wont
to
bée
continuallie
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
not
assaulted
,
but
by
their
Knightes
and
footmen
,
who
remayned
belowe
in
the
Towers
for
to
kéepe
and
defend
them
,
for
that
all
the
rest
were
gone
into
the
Castell
with
their
riche
praie
.
But
when
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
sawe
himselfe
cléere
of
all
those
that
came
forth
against
him
,
and
that
there
came
no
more
people
out
of
the
Towers
,
hee
imagined
within
himselfe
that
the
Gyantes
shoulde
bée
in
that
highe
Castle
,
which
hée
sawe
before
him
somewhat
a
farre
off
,
which
caused
him
to
take
the
waie
thetherwardes
,
and
it
seemed
vnto
him
to
bee
one
of
the
most
fayrest
and
strongest
that
euer
before
hee
had
séene
,
and
as
yet
hée
was
not
come
vnto
the
plaine
that
was
before
the
entrie
,
which
was
in
manner
of
a
Court
,
when
that
hee
sawe
come
forth
of
the
Castle
by
a
false
doore
one
of
the
Gyantes
,
all
armed
with
thicke
plates
of
stéele
,
and
mounted
vppon
a
mightie
,
great
,
and
strong
horse
,
with
a
great
cutting
hatchet
of
Steele
in
his
handes
,
who
seemed
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
to
bée
one
of
the
best
furnished
,
and
well
made
and
proportioned
Gyants
that
euer
hee
saw
in
all
his
lyfe
.
And
this
was
Langereon
the
eldest
and
most
valyantest
of
all
the
foure
brethren
,
who
béeing
aduertised
by
one
of
them
that
ranne
awaie
,
of
the
great
slaughter
and
destruction
that
that
alone
knight
had
made
amongst
his
people
,
he
issued
out
to
séeke
him
,
for
to
take
reuengement
of
the
same
,
and
at
such
time
as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
came
into
the
plaine
ground
,
by
the
Castell
,
the
Gyant
approched
nigh
vnto
him
,
and
lyfte
vp
the
beauer
of
his
healme
.
But
when
hée
sawe
him
of
so
bigge
and
gallant
proportion
,
and
considered
the
newes
which
his
men
had
declared
vnto
him
,
hée
helde
him
straight
wayes
in
reputation
,
and
thought
him
to
bée
a
knight
of
a
most
singular
and
valyant
courage
,
but
making
no
account
of
him
,
he
said
.
By
thy
vnaduised
ariuall
and
comming
hether
(
Sir
Knight
)
I
doe
vnderstand
that
thou
knowest
not
who
is
Lord
of
this
Iland
,
neither
the
vse
and
custome
that
is
héere
maintained
,
for
if
thou
haddest
béene
aduertised
thereof
,
then
wouldest
thou
not
haue
come
hether
to
séeke
him
,
whom
thou
hast
so
much
grieued
and
angered
in
the
slaying
of
his
knightes
.
With
as
little
feare
and
gallant
semblaunce
as
hée
spake
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
aunswered
him
and
sayd
.
Gyant
,
I
doe
verie
well
know
,
that
this
is
the
strong
Iland
,
and
how
that
Roboan
is
Lord
of
the
same
,
who
ioyntlie
with
his
sonnes
doth
maintaine
so
euill
and
abhominable
a
custome
,
that
whatsoeuer
good
knight
hée
bée
,
he
ought
for
to
aduenture
his
lyfe
for
to
cause
the
same
to
be
broken
,
as
well
in
the
great
Idolatrie
vsed
in
the
worshipping
for
God
his
creatures
,
as
also
in
the
great
crueltie
vsed
agaynst
all
knightes
and
damsells
,
so
that
I
am
come
hether
,
and
haue
so
great
hope
and
confidence
in
the
diuine
iustice
,
to
doe
so
much
,
that
you
shall
not
perseuer
with
this
great
violence
,
and
if
that
thou
art
Roboan
or
anie
of
his
sonnes
,
determine
and
put
order
to
amend
thy
life
,
or
else
come
presentlie
with
me
to
battaile
.
Then
Langereon
with
great
laughter
and
disdaine
,
said
:
Of
truth
(
Sir
Knight
)
thy
great
boldnesse
and
courage
is
the
greatest
that
euer
I
haue
heard
or
seene
,
that
thou
hast
so
valiant
a
heart
for
to
approch
and
giue
attempt
in
that
which
all
the
whole
world
is
not
sufficient
,
but
because
thou
shalt
sée
and
vnderstand
that
thy
attempt
is
more
of
follie
than
of
anie
valiant
courage
or
feare
,
doe
now
what
thou
canst
against
me
,
for
that
I
am
one
of
the
sonnes
of
Roboan
,
whom
thou
hast
named
.
And
in
saying
these
words
this
worthie
and
valiant
youth
did
lift
vp
his
great
trencheant
and
stéelie
hatchet
,
and
therewith
went
towardes
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
so
terrible
and
dreadfull
semblance
,
that
it
was
sufficient
to
put
great
feare
in
anie
good
Knight
.
But
vnto
him
who
had
béene
accustomed
vnto
such
lyke
enterprises
,
it
was
not
onelie
without
feare
and
dreade
,
but
also
a
Sp●are
which
hée
had
in
his
hand
,
and
taken
from
one
of
those
knightes
which
hée
stew
,
hée
threw
vnto
the
ground
,
and
drew
out
his
sword
,
and
went
towardes
Langereon
,
who
was
greatlie
amazed
at
that
which
hée
did
,
so
that
these
two
the
one
against
the
other
charged
each
his
aduersarie
with
such
terrible
blowes
vpon
their
healmes
,
that
with
the
great
force
thereof
they
caused
per●orce
their
horses
to
stoope
downe
to
the
ground
,
and
by
reason
that
the
healme
of
the
Gyant
was
not
of
so
fine
mettall
as
it
should
haue
béene
,
it
was
clouen
by
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
hée
made
a
lyttle
wounde
in
his
scull
,
out
of
the
which
procéeded
great
abundaunce
of
bloud
that
fell
in
his
eyes
,
and
about
his
face
,
the
which
did
disturbe
him
verie
much
in
this
battaile
,
and
this
Langereon
meruailed
exceedinglie
at
that
terrible
blowe
which
he
had
receiued
,
which
was
the
mightiest
that
euer
in
all
his
life
he
had
felt
,
and
being
verie
desirous
●●raight
wayes
and
out
of
hand
to
bée
reuenged
of
the
same
,
for
that
in
continuing
in
battaile
,
it
might
fall
out
vnto
him
verie
perillous
and
daungerous
:
hee
flourished
with
his
stéelie
hatchet
about
his
head
,
and
with
it
in
both
his
handes
hée
stroke
so
strong
a
blowe
at
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
ouerthwart
vppon
his
con●●aled
healme
,
that
he
thought
verilie
a
whole
Tower
had
fallen
vpon
him
,
it
so
amazed
and
astonied
him
,
and
with
a
trice
hee
redoubled
another
blowe
with
no
lesse
force
and
strength
,
with
the
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
passed
great
daunger
,
if
that
he
had
stroke
it
full
and
right
,
but
with
the
force
and
strength
that
hée
put
in
striking
of
the
first
blowe
,
the
bloud
of
the
wound
in
his
h●ad
burst
out
a
new
,
and
fell
with
greate
abundaunce
downe
about
his
eyes
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
whereas
hée
thought
to
haue
stroken
the
worthie
and
valyant
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
hée
was
deceiued
,
and
stroke
his
horse
hard
by
the
po●●ell
of
the
saddle
,
that
without
anie
staying
hee
cut
him
cleane
asunder
in
the
middest
,
so
that
he
parted
him
in
two
péeces
,
and
hee
straight
wayes
fell
downe
dead
vnto
the
grounde
,
whereby
hée
was
constrayned
to
ouerthrowe
his
Maister
:
but
this
valiant
knight
was
not
so
soone
fallen
,
but
he
arose
vp
againe
on
his
féete
,
and
meruailed
greatlie
at
the
mightie
force
of
the
Gyant
,
and
seeing
himselfe
so
intreated
,
he
sayde
within
himselfe
,
that
it
did
well
appeare
,
that
there
was
not
present
his
Ladie
and
Mistres
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
for
that
one
alone
knight
had
brought
him
vnto
that
extremitie
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
he
did
abide
the
comming
of
Langareon
,
who
approched
with
his
hatchet
aboue
his
head
for
to
strike
him
another
terrible
blowe
,
and
at
such
time
as
he
would
haue
discharged
the
same
,
he
stepped
on
the
one
side
with
so
great
dexteritie
,
that
the
blowe
fell
downe
to
the
ground
,
and
as
the
Gyant
by
reason
of
the
force
wherewith
it
was
stroke
,
dyd
bowe
his
bodie
and
armes
after
the
same
,
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
laide
holde
on
the
gorget
of
his
healme
with
so
greate
strength
,
that
hee
brake
the
lacings
and
buckles
thereof
,
and
pulled
it
from
his
head
,
and
ouerthrew
him
from
his
horse
to
the
ground
,
and
before
that
hée
could
arise
,
hee
stroke
him
with
his
healme
vppon
his
vnarmed
head
,
that
hée
astonied
him
,
and
layde
him
a
long
vpon
the
earth
,
and
not
willing
to
doe
him
anie
farther
euill
,
hée
left
him
,
and
tooke
his
hatchet
and
mounted
vpon
his
horse
,
the
which
was
both
bigge
and
verie
swift
.
And
looking
towardes
the
Castle
to
see
if
another
did
come
forth
,
hée
chaunced
to
cast
his
eyes
vp
vnto
the
battlements
therof
,
whereas
hee
discouered
the
persons
of
the
Emperour
Alycanidro
,
and
the
fayre
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
and
some
of
her
Ladies
and
Gentlewomen
,
who
were
beholding
and
dyd
sée
all
that
passed
in
the
battayle
with
the
Gyant
,
and
by
reason
that
all
his
armour
was
berayed
and
imbrued
in
bloud
,
and
neuer
made
cleane
since
the
greate
battayle
that
was
fought
in
Grecia
,
and
againe
,
that
he
had
not
his
horse
Cornerino
,
they
coulde
not
imagine
or
deuise
who
he
shoulde
bée
,
but
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
sayde
within
her selfe
.
Oh
how
I
would
pardon
and
forgiue
fortune
all
these
trauailes
and
aduersities
which
she
hath
giuen
vnto
mée
,
that
my
fortune
might
nowe
bée
so
good
and
happie
,
that
this
might
be
the
myrrour
of
all
knights
,
or
his
brother
Rosicleer
,
or
some
of
his
friendes
,
that
might
doe
so
much
,
in
this
Iland
,
as
to
carrie
vs
prisoners
into
Grecia
.
But
when
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
dyd
sée
that
faire
and
rubic●nd
face
of
the
Princesse
,
he
was
not
so
greatlie
troubled
with
the
mightie
and
terrible
blowes
which
he
hadde
receiued
of
the
Gyant
,
as
he
was
for
to
see
her
,
who
some
times
was
gouernesse
of
his
heart
,
in
that
place
:
wherwith
he
trembled
and
shaked
,
striking
himselfe
vpon
the
brest
,
as
one
that
walketh
by
night
in
securitie
and
without
feare
discouereth
vpon
a
sodaine
,
some
vision
or
fantasie
before
him
.
And
being
somewhat
amased
,
he
remained
a
good
while
,
beholding
her
,
without
mouing
of
hand
or
foote
,
that
he
thought
all
his
sences
were
disturbed
,
with
the
sodaine
sight
of
this
faire
Princesse
,
whose
beautie
was
so
rooted
within
his
heart
,
and
the
olde
sore
so
festered
,
that
of
truth
it
was
very
hard
and
euell
to
be
healed
,
if
that
the
wisedome
of
Lirgandeo
and
Artimidoro
,
with
others
more
auncienter
then
they
,
had
not
put
remedie
in
the
same
,
for
that
the
valour
of
this
precious
princesse
was
such
,
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
in
her
presence
,
could
neuer
haue
his
frée
libertie
.
And
being
in
this
maze
Andricardo
,
the
second
brother
came
forth
out
at
the
castell
gate
,
all
armed
with
very
thick
armour
of
hardened
stéele
,
and
mounted
vpon
a
mightie
horse
,
who
was
of
no
lesse
stature
and
bignesse
then
the
first
:
but
when
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
sée
him
,
he
saide
within
himselfe
,
that
neuer
in
all
his
life
he
saw
giants
of
so
gallant
proporcion
,
nor
of
so
great
force
&
strength
as
Langereon
seemed
to
haue
.
But
when
that
Andricardo
approched
and
saw
his
brother
lye
along
vpon
the
earth
,
thinking
that
he
had
bene
dead
,
it
could
not
be
immagined
the
great
sorrow
and
griefe
he
receiued
,
which
caused
him
with
so
great
furie
and
lightnesse
,
as
the
arrow
that
is
forced
out
of
abowe
,
to
throw
at
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
a
mightie
great
boare
speare
which
he
brought
in
his
hands
,
that
if
his
armour
had
not
bene
that
of
Meridian
▪
it
had
passed
his
bodie
through
and
through
to
the
other
side
,
for
that
it
stroke
him
in
the
middest
of
his
breast
with
so
great
strength
,
that
it
made
him
to
double
his
bodie
backwards
vpon
his
horse
crouper
,
and
for
that
the
stéelie
pointe
could
not
enter
into
his
armour
,
it
doubled
&
recoiled
backe
againe
,
and
the
shéeuers
flew
into
the
aire
,
making
a
greate
noise
,
but
this
good
knight
with
great
lightnesse
did
settle
himselfe
againe
in
his
saddle
,
and
remembred
that
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
did
behold
him
,
and
therewith
went
against
Andricandro
,
with
his
hatchet
in
both
his
handes
,
&
stroke
him
so
mightie
a
blow
vpon
his
healme
,
that
if
it
had
chanced
to
be
a
full
blow
,
he
had
clouen
him
downe
vnto
the
wast
,
but
it
chanced
somewhat
aside
,
in
such
sort
,
that
it
cut
awaie
a
péece
of
the
helme
with
one
of
his
cares
,
and
from
thence
descended
his
fine
cutting
hatchet
along
his
breast
,
cutting
all
that
was
before
it
,
till
it
came
to
the
saddle
bow
,
the
which
it
cloue
asunder
,
and
cut
his
horse
almost
in
two
péeces
,
so
that
he
fell
downe
dead
to
the
ground
with
his
master
,
and
caught
one
of
his
legges
vnder
him
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
what
with
the
wound
that
hée
had
on
his
breast
,
and
the
doubling
of
his
legge
,
hée
could
not
by
anie
meanes
arise
,
but
was
the
greatest
amazed
man
in
all
the
worlde
,
to
see
that
terrible
and
wonderfull
blowe
the
which
he
had
receiued
,
and
it
séemed
to
bée
done
by
a
knight
of
the
biggest
force
that
was
to
bée
found
in
anie
parte
of
the
vniuersall
world
.
Then
Roboan
who
was
all
armed
,
and
at
a
windowe
beholding
the
battaile
,
when
that
he
sawe
his
sonnes
ouercome
and
in
that
perplexitie
,
it
coulde
not
be
expressed
the
great
sorow
and
griefe
which
he
receiued
,
for
that
he
thought
it
a
thing
impossible
,
that
ten
of
the
best
knightes
that
were
to
be
found
in
all
the
world
,
were
not
able
to
do
that
which
was
there
done
,
and
thinking
in
a
short
space
to
be
reuenged
for
the
same
,
he
mounted
vpon
a
mightie
horse
,
and
tooke
a
great
speare
in
his
hand
,
and
went
forth
at
the
Castle
gate
with
so
furious
and
terrible
a
semblance
,
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
verie
well
perceiue
that
he
was
of
no
lesse
force
and
strength
than
his
two
sonnes
,
for
that
he
was
higher
of
person
,
and
bigger
of
members
,
and
when
that
he
came
nigh
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
with
a
hoarse
&
terrible
voice
,
he
sayd
.
Knight
,
tell
me
who
art
thou
of
such
courage
and
hardinesse
,
that
hauing
slaine
my
two
sonnes
,
darest
abide
mée
in
the
field
?
I
am
a
knight
(
said
he
)
that
in
the
name
of
Iesus
Christ
,
in
whom
I
doe
beléeue
and
worship
,
doe
hope
to
destroie
thée
,
and
all
those
that
are
obedient
vnto
thy
lawe
,
for
that
the
diuine
iustice
beeing
angrie
at
the
great
sinnes
and
euils
by
thée
done
in
this
Iland
,
is
now
come
to
punish
thée
according
vnto
thy
deserts
,
in
the
déepest
partes
of
hell
.
Oh
Goddesse
,
the
creator
of
all
Gyantes
,
and
the
bringer
forth
of
all
the
fruites
vppon
the
earth
,
(
answered
Roboan
)
how
canst
thou
suffer
that
one
alone
knight
shall
saie
that
he
will
destroie
thy
lawe
,
and
maketh
a
mocking
stocke
thereat
.
In
saying
these
wordes
he
spurred
forwardes
with
his
horse
,
and
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
with
his
speare
in
the
middest
of
his
breast
,
that
he
would
haue
sworne
,
that
the
point
with
halfe
the
staffe
would
haue
appeared
at
his
back
,
but
it
fell
not
out
according
vnto
his
thought
,
for
at
the
force
thereof
he
made
no
more
mention
nor
mouing
thereat
,
than
if
he
had
stroke
against
a
tower
,
but
with
his
mightie
hatchet
he
repaied
him
in
such
sort
,
that
a
mightie
great
and
thick
shéeld
,
that
he
had
,
wherewith
he
would
haue
warded
that
blow
,
he
cut
in
two
péeces
,
and
the
blowe
descended
vppon
his
healme
,
cutting
the
same
,
and
also
a
steele
cap
which
hee
had
vnder
it
,
and
made
a
cruell
wound
in
his
head
,
and
as
they
ioyned
with
their
bodies
verie
nigh
the
one
the
other
,
the
Gyant
laide
holde
with
his
armes
about
his
necke
,
thinking
by
his
great
force
and
strength
to
hoise
him
out
of
the
saddie
,
but
he
that
was
indued
with
no
lesse
strength
than
he
,
and
with
more
dexteritie
,
laide
hold
on
him
by
the
wast
,
&
held
him
so
fast
,
that
by
reason
their
horses
pressed
forwards
,
they
both
●ell
to
the
ground
,
and
let
go
their
holds
,
&
rose
vp
vpon
their
feet
.
The
knight
of
the
Sun
drew
out
his
sword
&
the
gyant
a
great
fauchon
,
so
that
they
began
the
battaile
a
foot
,
&
made
so
great
noise
,
that
they
were
heard
throughout
the
whole
Iland
,
and
it
séemed
that
there
were
in
battaile
together
,
more
then
one
hundreth
knights
.
Here
was
to
be
séene
the
great
fortitude
and
strength
of
Roboan
,
who
dyd
combat
in
such
sort
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
he
troubled
him
very
much
,
and
many
times
his
vnmeasurable
blowes
did
put
him
in
great
perill
,
and
had
brought
him
into
much
more
danger
,
if
that
the
great
strength
and
goodnesse
of
his
armour
,
and
his
great
lightnesse
,
had
not
holpen
him
.
There
was
also
an
other
thing
that
dyd
profit
him
verie
much
,
which
was
the
great
furie
of
his
temerous
blowes
,
which
made
the
Gyant
to
besturre
himselfe
from
one
part
vnto
an
other
,
for
to
cléere
himselfe
from
the
furie
of
them
,
with
more
lightnesse
then
his
bigge
and
great
bodie
required
.
So
that
after
halfe
an
houre
that
the
battaile
was
begonne
,
his
vnwildy
bodie
not
being
able
to
indure
anie
longer
,
waxed
weake
&
feeble
,
by
reason
of
certaine
wounds
which
he
had
receiued
,
out
of
the
which
issued
verie
much
bloud
,
in
so
great
aboundance
,
that
all
the
ground
was
stained
there
with
.
At
which
time
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
considering
,
that
if
the
battaile
shold
goe
forwards
,
it
wold
not
be
well
with
Roboan
:
and
againe
,
for
that
he
had
him
and
his
sonnes
in
respect
of
strong
and
valiant
knights
,
&
for
such
would
estéeme
them
,
if
that
he
might
cause
them
to
leaue
this
great
errour
the
which
they
had
maintained
a
long
time
,
he
there
with
all
withdrew
himselfe
aback
,
and
lifting
vp
the
beauer
of
his
healme
he
said
.
Heare
mée
a
little
what
I
will
say
vnto
thée
Roboan
,
first
before
that
this
our
battaile
be
finished
,
thou
shalt
vnderstand
that
I
doe
estéeme
thee
and
thy
sonnes
verie
much
,
as
wel
for
the
great
valiantnesse
that
is
in
you
,
as
also
you
doe
séeme
vnto
mee
to
be
good
and
courteous
knights
:
my
will
and
desire
is
,
that
this
our
battaile
betwixt
vs
may
cease
,
and
that
remedie
be
put
in
the
curing
these
thy
wounds
,
and
the
wounds
of
thy
sonnes
,
in
case
that
thou
wilt
leaue
this
law
Gentilica
,
wherewith
thou
hast
bene
so
much
deceiued
,
and
from
this
day
forwardes
not
to
obserue
nor
maintaine
the
euell
and
most
cruell
custome
,
as
hetherto
thou
hast
.
For
that
if
thou
wilt
sée
and
behold
with
the
eyes
of
thy
vnderstanding
,
and
consider
of
the
law
in
the
which
thou
doest
liue
,
thou
shalt
cléerely
sée
and
perceiue
the
great
errour
and
deceit
wherein
thou
art
wrapped
.
Tell
mee
I
pray
thee
Roboan
,
who
ought
to
be
honored
and
worshipped
for
God
,
but
he
alonely
that
created
and
made
all
things
both
ce●estiall
and
terrestriall
,
and
hath
power
ouer
all
things
,
for
to
punish
the
wicked
,
and
to
gratifie
and
reward
the
good
and
iust
.
Well
then
,
if
he
alone
that
hath
all
this
power
,
ought
to
be
estéemed
,
honoured
and
worshipped
,
for
God
,
what
reason
is
there
for
to
beleue
that
the
Moone
is
the
Goddesse
.
Thou
shalt
vnderstand
for
her
to
shine
and
giue
light
,
hath
neede
of
the
cléerenesse
and
brighnesse
of
the
Sunne
,
without
the
which
,
of
her selfe
she
is
verie
darke
and
obscure
,
and
cannot
be
séene
.
God
created
the
high
couloured
Rubies
,
the
gréene
Emeralds
,
the
blew
Saphires
,
the
white
Pearles
,
the
shining
beams
of
the
Sunne
,
that
giueth
light
vnto
the
Moone
,
the
Starres
,
the
gréene
trées
on
the
earth
,
and
her
Plants
,
the
quietnesse
of
the
heauens
,
the
roundnesse
of
the
world
,
and
the
meruailous
course
of
the
celestial
mouings
,
not
for
that
we
should
occupie
our
wits
and
vnderstandings
in
these
things
:
but
by
the
great
beautie
and
sight
of
them
,
our
spirits
may
be
moued
vnto
the
beautie
and
loue
of
the
creator
and
maker
of
all
them
,
from
whom
like
as
from
a
fountaine
,
procedeth
all
that
is
faire
and
delectable
vnto
the
sight
of
man
.
In
the
meane
time
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
saying
these
words
,
Roboan
was
very
attentiue
,
taking
as
great
pleasure
,
at
that
he
sayde
,
as
at
his
great
force
and
strength
,
and
looking
vpon
himselfe
,
he
sawe
that
he
was
berayed
with
bloud
and
his
armour
broken
in
many
places
,
and
his
aduersarie
not
to
haue
receiued
any
wound
,
but
rather
was
more
stronger
and
lighter
then
at
the
beginning
,
which
was
vnto
him
apparant
,
either
to
be
slaine
,
or
to
loose
the
victorie
.
Likewise
he
well
vnderstood
to
what
ende
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
spoken
those
words
,
which
did
procéede
more
of
vertue
&
good
will
towards
them
,
then
for
any
feare
or
dread
he
had
in
the
conclusion
of
the
battaile
:
but
by
reason
that
he
saw
his
sonnes
lying
a
long
on
the
ground
in
the
field
,
the
eyes
of
his
vnderstanding
were
so
blinded
,
that
he
could
not
sée
the
great
profit
which
might
come
vnto
him
in
leauing
of
his
law
and
custome
.
And
said
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
that
he
should
not
speake
any
thing
more
therof
vnto
him
,
for
that
he
was
determined
to
follow
and
take
his
fortune
,
whether
it
were
good
or
bad
,
against
him
,
or
with
him
.
And
therewith
they
both
retourned
againe
vnto
the
battaile
,
&
for
that
they
had
somewhat
breathed
&
rested
themselues
,
it
was
then
a
thing
worthie
to
be
seene
,
the
strong
and
terrible
blowes
which
the
one
stroke
at
the
other
.
For
as
I
haue
said
,
Roboan
was
a
stout
and
strong
giant
,
and
sufficient
of
himselfe
to
destroye
and
kill
one
hundreth
knights
that
should
contend
against
him
altogether
in
battaile
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
great
desire
quickly
to
conclude
and
make
an
ende
of
that
contension
,
to
sée
what
the
Emperour
Alicandro
and
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
dyd
in
the
castell
,
who
being
greatly
amazed
at
his
great
force
and
strength
,
could
not
immagine
who
it
should
be
,
except
it
were
the
sonne
of
Trebatio
,
he
who
had
done
great
marnailes
in
his
presence
.
And
he
that
should
at
this
instant
haue
certified
the
faire
princesse
,
how
that
it
was
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
you
may
well
beleeue
that
he
should
haue
caused
her
to
receiue
greater
ioye
and
contentment
,
then
if
they
had
giuen
her
all
the
whole
world
for
a
present
,
as
she
who
should
not
receiue
so
great
griefe
,
if
her
soule
should
depart
from
her
bodie
,
as
she
should
receiue
in
departing
from
the
countrie
whereas
doth
remaine
her
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
who
dyd
so
much
against
Roboan
,
that
in
the
ende
of
one
houre
,
that
the
battaele
was
begun
,
he
fell
downe
a
long
at
his
féete
,
so
séeble
and
weake
,
by
reason
of
the
great
quantitie
of
bloud
,
that
he
had
lost
,
that
till
such
time
as
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
did
pull
of
his
healme
,
and
gaue
him
ayre
,
he
could
not
come
againe
vnto
himselfe
.
But
when
that
he
was
in
his
remembraunce
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
florishing
with
his
sworde
aboue
his
head
,
sayde
,
with
this
sword
will
I
seperate
thy
head
and
bodie
a
sunder
,
if
that
thou
wilt
not
amend
thy
lyfe
,
and
apart
thy selfe
from
the
law
,
wherein
thou
hast
liued
hetherto
.
The
feare
of
death
(
sayd
Roboan
)
shall
not
make
mée
to
doe
any
thing
that
is
against
my
honour
,
but
thy
great
vertue
and
force
,
doth
make
mée
to
beléeue
that
thy
law
and
faith
is
better
then
this
,
the
which
I
haue
hetherto
maintained
,
in
the
which
I
doe
confesse
greatly
to
haue
erred
and
bene
deceiued
.
And
here
I
doe
promise
thée
in
the
faith
of
whome
I
am
,
and
by
the
high
bloud
from
whence
I
doe
descend
,
neuer
to
maintaine
any
longer
this
euill
custome
,
but
will
esteeme
and
worshippe
for
my
God
all
the
dayes
of
my
life
,
him
whome
thou
hast
tolde
mée
off
,
who
vniuersally
did
create
all
things
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
who
was
very
glad
and
ioyfull
for
to
heare
him
so
say
,
dyd
healp
him
to
arise
from
the
ground
,
and
embrasing
him
with
great
loue
,
they
went
both
together
vnto
Andricardo
and
Langereon
,
whom
they
found
both
a
liue
and
without
perill
,
but
that
they
were
verie
weake
and
féeble
,
with
the
great
quantitie
of
bloud
the
which
they
had
lost
:
but
when
the
sonnes
had
vnderstood
all
that
which
had
passed
with
their
Father
,
God
had
inspired
his
holy
spirit
within
them
,
in
such
sort
,
that
they
were
very
well
content
therewith
,
and
premised
him
that
from
that
day
forwards
,
they
would
hold
him
for
their
Lord
and
verie
friend
,
and
requested
him
to
tell
them
,
who
he
was
,
&
how
he
was
called
.
Unto
whome
he
saide
,
that
they
should
goe
vnto
the
castell
and
there
in
the
presence
and
before
his
prisoners
he
would
giue
them
to
vnderstand
.
And
therwith
they
went
all
foure
together
vnto
the
castel
,
and
being
within
they
mounted
vp
vnto
the
battelments
whereas
the
Emperour
,
and
faire
princesse
,
with
her
damsells
were
.
And
when
they
came
vnto
them
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
pulled
of
his
healme
,
and
kneeled
downe
before
the
Emperor
&
the
princesse
that
were
together
aparted
from
the
rest
,
&
with
that
graue
&
merrie
countenance
that
he
was
wont
to
haue
,
he
spake
these
words
.
If
the
errors
don
by
the
knight
of
the
Sun
could
moue
the
generositie
of
your
hearts
,
to
come
with
so
great
wrath
accompanied
with
so
mightie
a
number
of
knights
,
into
Grecia
,
for
to
take
reuengement
of
me
alone
,
behold
mée
here
now
vnder
your
obedience
,
for
that
with
this
sword
straight
waies
you
giue
mée
my
reward
,
as
my
desort
doth
deserue
,
for
greater
force
to
this
effecte
hath
the
greate
loue
and
good
will
which
alwaies
I
beare
vnto
you
,
then
all
the
great
and
mightie
armies
,
which
you
ordained
to
passe
the
Seas
,
for
that
to
counteruaile
them
an
other
force
equall
is
sufficient
for
to
destroy
them
,
but
against
the
good
will
which
alwayes
I
had
for
to
serue
you
,
there
is
no
force
,
nor
peruerse
fortune
sufficient
for
to
oppresse
the
same
:
and
if
hetherto
my
Lords
,
I
haue
séemed
vnto
you
to
vse
the
contrarie
,
for
that
I
made
resistance
against
your
in
these
battailes
passed
,
it
was
not
for
to
excuse
mee
to
be
yours
,
but
to
withstand
that
the
Emperour
of
Grecia
were
not
wholly
destroyed
:
and
againe
,
that
they
should
not
suffer
&
abide
the
smart
,
that
were
nothing
in
the
fault
hereof
.
In
the
meane
time
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
saying
these
words
,
the
faire
Princesse
did
beholde
him
as
though
she
had
bene
transported
,
or
from
her selfe
with
the
soueraigne
ioye
and
pleasure
which
presently
she
receiued
,
to
sée
before
her
with
so
great
humilitie
,
him
whome
she
loued
much
more
then
her
owne
selfe
,
and
his
fight
so
greatly
wished
&
desired
for
.
But
when
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
dyd
know
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
had
well
vnderstoode
his
humble
and
courteous
words
,
who
could
immagine
or
coniecture
the
great
admiration
and
wonder
that
he
receiued
in
his
heart
,
with
the
varietie
of
diuers
things
that
occupied
his
minde
and
vnderstanding
at
one
instant
.
For
one
waye
he
called
to
remembrance
,
that
once
he
thought
that
this
knight
should
haue
bene
his
sonne
,
and
how
that
he
gaue
vnto
him
his
daughter
,
Empire
and
high
estate
.
Likewise
he
remembred
to
the
contrarie
,
how
that
for
to
be
reuenged
on
him
,
he
left
his
owne
countries
,
and
departed
with
a
great
number
of
people
into
Grecia
whereas
happened
vnto
him
all
his
ill
fortunes
and
ouerthrowes
.
he
remembred
also
how
that
he
sawe
him
in
the
fielde
against
him
with
so
great
furie
and
fiercenesse
,
that
hée
alone
did
make
to
quake
all
his
great
and
mightie
armie
,
and
how
that
by
his
rigorous
arme
the
most
principallest
kings
and
Lordes
of
all
his
hoast
were
destroyed
and
hewen
to
péeces
,
and
now
likewise
he
sawe
him
vppon
his
knées
before
his
presence
with
so
great
humilitie
,
that
more
coulde
not
be
done
by
his
sonne
Meridian
,
if
at
that
present
he
had
béene
there
.
In
this
sort
was
his
minde
troubled
and
tossed
withall
these
thoughts
,
which
was
the
occasion
,
that
he
stood
and
did
beholde
him
without
speaking
of
anie
word
a
good
space
,
till
such
time
as
comming
vnto
himselfe
,
and
remembring
that
he
was
the
Myrrour
of
all
Princes
and
knights
in
the
world
,
and
as
then
thought
him
to
bée
equall
vnto
the
eternall
Gods
,
and
that
his
great
valour
&
estate
would
not
suffer
that
he
should
continue
in
that
sort
before
him
,
he
determined
to
consent
and
to
suffer
with
patience
,
all
that
was
ordained
by
fortune
,
and
to
accept
and
receiue
the
lybertie
of
his
imprisonment
at
the
handes
of
him
,
who
hath
béene
the
occasion
of
all
his
euill
,
but
in
especiall
the
necessitie
in
the
which
he
was
brought
,
woulde
not
giue
waie
vnto
anie
other
thing
,
so
that
he
went
vnto
him
,
and
did
embrase
him
,
and
kissed
his
chéeke
,
and
in
shedding
of
many
teares
that
ranne
downe
his
chéekes
,
hée
vttered
these
wordes
.
WOrthie
Prince
and
welbeloued
sonne
,
I
am
he
that
alonelie
haue
erred
,
&
most
worthelie
doth
deserue
the
punishment
,
for
the
great
quantitie
of
bloud
which
I
haue
caused
to
bee
shedde
of
those
that
were
without
fault
or
blame
,
for
I
may
well
knowe
and
vnderstand
,
that
whome
the
Gods
dyd
make
of
so
great
magnanimitie
aboue
all
others
in
the
whole
worlde
,
it
cannot
bee
but
Fortune
must
bée
fauourable
vnto
him
and
vnto
mee
the
contrarie
,
for
that
I
will
maintaine
against
him
the
warre
and
contention
,
yea
,
and
besides
all
this
,
the
destini●s
hath
béene
fauourable
vnto
thée
,
in
that
by
thy
greate
force
and
strength
,
wée
shall
be
set
al
libertis
out
of
this
prison
in
the
which
wée
were
committed
,
therefore
I
will
acknowledge
the
great●
subiection
and
submission
I
owe
vnto
fortune
,
and
giue
her
thankes
,
that
although
in
the
one
she
hath
bene
vnto
mee
contrarie
,
yet
héerein
hath
she
bene
fauourable
,
in
bringing
you
hether
into
my
presence
in
this
great
néede
and
necessitie
.
Therefore
I
will
(
if
you
be
contented
therewith
)
returne
with
you
vnto
Constantinople
,
for
to
conclude
an
entire
and
euerlasting
friendship
with
the
Emperour
Trebatio
your
Father
,
and
to
do
that
now
by
peace
,
which
I
could
not
before
conclude
or
finish
by
warres
.
Héere
did
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
take
great
pleasure
and
contentment
,
in
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
would
returne
into
Grecia
,
for
the
which
he
offered
to
kisse
his
hands
:
but
yet
the
ioy
and
pleasure
was
much
more
,
that
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
receiued
,
in
that
the
iourney
should
be
such
,
that
she
might
not
so
quicklie
depart
out
of
the
presence
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
And
more
it
is
to
be
considered
of
them
that
in
the
like
operations
hath
had
experience
,
for
to
giue
iudgement
of
the
imagination
of
those
two
,
when
they
sawe
themselues
together
before
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
whereas
they
coulde
not
manifest
anie
part
of
that
which
they
thought
within
their
hearts
.
At
this
time
approched
vnto
them
Roboan
and
his
sonnes
,
&
when
they
vnderstoode
who
they
were
that
were
their
prisoners
,
and
also
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
fell
downe
vppon
their
knées
at
their
féete
for
to
kisse
their
handes
,
and
craued
pardon
of
them
for
all
that
was
past
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
sayd
vnto
the
Emperour
:
My
Lord
,
may
it
please
your
Highnesse
for
to
honour
these
knights
,
for
that
they
doe
deserue
it
,
for
the
great
bountie
and
curtesie
that
is
in
them
.
Then
did
the
Emperour
embrace
them
,
&
caused
them
to
arise
from
the
ground
,
&
offered
himselfe
to
be
their
friend
euer
after
,
&
for
that
he
saw
them
sore
hurt
,
he
caused
them
to
be
cured
&
laid
in
their
heds
,
whereas
we
wil
leaue
them
,
to
declare
of
other
things
that
happened
in
this
time
,
&
is
néedfull
in
this
Hystorie
for
the
accomplishing
of
the
Prophesies
past
.
What
happened
vnto
Rosicleer
after
his
departure
out
of
Constantinople
.
Chap.
41.
IN
the
beginning
of
the
Chapter
past
,
it
was
told
you
,
how
Rosicleer
was
departed
from
Constantinople
,
as
well
to
séeke
the
knight
of
the
Sun
his
brother
,
that
was
departed
from
the
battaile
past
,
as
also
for
to
méete
with
Bramarant
,
for
that
he
had
great
desire
for
to
combat
with
him
,
for
that
he
séemed
to
be
the
most
strongest
and
mightiest
Pagan
that
was
to
be
found
in
all
the
Paganisme
.
Now
the
Hystorie
saith
,
that
after
he
was
gone
to
sea
in
a
little
ship
that
he
found
in
the
port
,
the
passed
storme
and
tempest
did
carrie
them
so
farre
,
that
they
were
in
sight
of
the
strong
Iland
,
and
béeing
discouered
,
the
Mariners
did
declare
vnto
him
whose
it
was
,
and
the
euill
custome
that
was
there
maintained
.
Which
when
he
heard
it
did
giue
him
a
great
good
will
for
to
goe
thether
,
&
when
that
he
came
nigh
vnto
,
the
Iland
within
a
bow
shoote
,
hée
sawe
vpon
the
tops
●●certaine
mightie
rockes
amongst
the
cliffes
,
a
damsell
which
made
great
hast
in
running
awaie
,
giuing
great
shrikes
and
cries
,
and
following
after
her
two
mightie
,
great
,
and
deformed
Gyants
,
with
great
desire
to
ouertake
her
,
the
which
when
he
sawe
,
with
great
good
will
for
to
succour
her
,
he
caused
the
small
ship
to
bee
carried
to
the
shore
,
whereas
this
worthie
knight
leaped
a
land
,
and
began
a
foote
to
climbe
vpon
those
rockes
,
with
all
the
spéed
possible
he
could
,
not
respec●ing
the
manifest
perill
that
was
ordained
,
with
them
whome
hée
went
to
séeke
,
but
onelie
that
wherevnto
hée
was
bound
by
iustice
and
honour
.
And
when
that
hée
was
thus
ariued
,
at
the
top
of
those
rockes
,
hee
sawe
come
forth
from
amongest
those
cliffes
the
two
Gyanted
,
who
brought
betwixt
them
the
Damsell
that
before
hee
sow●
,
giuing
great
shrikes
and
lamentations
because
that
shee
was
carried
prisoner
after
that
sorte
.
These
two
Gyants
were
Rubero
and
Acorante
,
the
two
younger
sonnes
vnto
Roboan
,
who
ariuing
at
the
Ilande
,
had
seene
the
damsell
vpon
the
top
of
the
rockes
,
looking
out
if
she
could
discouer
anie
ship
wherein
she
might
haue
saued
her selfe
.
This
damsell
was
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
and
damsell
vnto
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
who
for
to
deliuer
her selfe
from
the
prison
whether
as
they
carried
her
mistres
,
did
fall
into
another
daunger
as
ill
,
whereas
all
her
wisedome
and
cunning
could
not
deliuer
her
,
although
she
dyd
deuine
and
prophesie
of
the
same
,
who
when
the
Gyants
did
sée
her
,
and
that
she
séemed
to
be
verie
faire
and
well
proportioned
(
as
of
truth
she
was
)
they
straight
waies
followed
after
her
,
and
tooke
her
prisoner
,
and
carrying
her
in
that
sort
as
you
haue
heard
,
Rosicleer
did
put
himself
before
them
and
said
.
What
is
the
occasion
that
you
doe
carrie
this
Damsell
prisoner
in
this
sorte
?
Then
the
Gyants
who
had
not
séene
him
before
he
spake
vnto
them
,
did
verie
much
behold
him
,
and
séeing
him
of
so
gallant
a
proportion
and
so
well
armed
,
the
elder
of
the
twaine
called
Rubero
went
against
him
,
and
said
.
Thou
shalt
be
prisoner
with
her
,
and
when
the
time
doth
serue
,
thou
shalt
haue
〈◊〉
answere
of
this
thy
bolde
demand
,
with
the
sacrifice
that
shall
be
done
with
both
of
you
.
And
as
he
would
haue
taken
him
in
his
armes
,
Rosicleer
stroke
him
with
his
close
fist
such
a
blow
vppon
the
stomacke
,
that
he
all
to
buckled
the
plaies
of
stéele
wherwith
he
was
armed
,
&
without
breath
ouerthrew
him
backwards
to
the
ground
,
whose
fall
was
so
great
,
that
his
brother
Acorante
thought
verilie
he
had
bene
dead
,
who
like
a
rauening
Lyon
,
giuing
a
great
shrike
,
went
against
Rosicleer
,
and
with
a
great
fauchon
that
he
had
,
hée
stroke
so
strong
a
blowe
vpon
his
shéeld
,
that
hée
cut
it
cleane
asunder
in
the
middest
,
and
the
fauchon
descended
downe
vpon
his
helme
,
and
hauing
no
power
against
the
inchauntment
thereof
,
it
made
him
to
stoupe
with
his
knées
to
the
ground
.
Then
Rosicleer
drew
out
his
sworde
,
which
was
the
same
of
so
great
value
,
forged
by
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
who
was
present
,
wherewith
he
made
him
aunswere
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
hée
cloue
his
shéeld
asunder
that
he
had
on
his
left
arme
,
and
also
his
thicke
and
strong
armour
with
the
flesh
,
vnto
the
hard
bone
.
Then
betwixt
them
two
began
a
braue
and
stout
battaile
,
striking
the
one
the
other
so
great
and
furious
blowes
,
that
they
were
heard
throughout
all
the
whole
Iland
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
those
that
were
with
him
in
the
high
Castle
of
Roboan
were
greatlie
amazed
,
and
could
not
imagine
what
it
should
bée
.
After
this
sort
their
combat
endured
betwixt
them
more
than
a
quarter
of
an
houre
,
in
the
end
whereof
,
the
fine
cutting
sword
of
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
being
flourished
by
the
furious
arme
of
Rosicleer
,
brought
the
st●ut
Acorante
into
that
perplexitie
,
that
he
was
all
berayed
in
bloud
with
the
great
number
of
wounds
that
was
giuen
him
on
all
parts
,
that
if
he
had
not
bene
so
stout
and
couragious
,
&
of
so
great
force
,
he
could
not
haue
sustained
himselfe
vpon
his
féete
,
the
which
was
to
the
contrarie
in
Rosicleer
,
that
although
the
blowes
of
the
Gyant
were
verie
strong
,
and
caused
him
many
times
to
stoupe
with
his
hands
and
knees
to
the
ground
,
and
gaue
him
great
paine
and
griefe
whereas
he
dyd
fasten
anie
blowe
,
yet
for
all
that
,
his
excellent
armour
dyd
assure
him
from
wounds
,
and
his
great
lightnesse
did
make
him
to
strike
many
of
his
blowes
in
vaine
.
Thus
in
the
meane
time
that
Acorante
was
so
feeble
and
saint
with
the
losse
of
bloud
,
and
waxed
wearie
,
Rubeo
the
other
brother
was
come
vnto
himselfe
againe
,
and
remembring
what
had
passed
him
,
and
seeing
the
greate
perill
whereinto
his
brother
was
nowe
brought
,
with
a
trice
hée
arose
vp
from
the
ground
,
and
taking
his
sworde
in
his
hande
hée
began
to
laie
vppon
Rosicleer
such
greate
and
mightie
blowes
,
(
that
by
reason
hee
entered
in
a
fresh
,
and
the
other
béeing
samewhat
wearie
)
hée
put
him
into
great
extremitie
,
so
that
all
his
valour
and
worthinesse
was
verie
néedfull
at
that
instant
.
Then
when
the
Quéene
Iulia
saw
how
that
that
knight
did
all
alone
combat
for
her
against
the
two
Gyantes
,
she
straight
waies
called
to
remembrance
that
which
many
daies
before
she
had
prophesied
,
and
beholding
the
swoorde
,
which
the
knight
had
,
she
knew
it
to
bee
the
same
which
she
had
forged
with
her
owne
hands
,
and
then
she
thought
all
her
●raua●le
to
be
well
bestowed
,
hauing
great
hope
that
the
knight
should
haue
the
victorie
against
those
Gyantes
,
for
that
she
sawe
him
verie
nimble
and
light
,
and
that
hée
wounded
the
Gyants
in
many
places
of
their
bodies
,
and
all
the
ground
was
beraied
with
the
bloud
that
ranne
out
of
their
wounds
,
but
by
reason
that
they
were
so
boistrous
and
so
stout
,
they
so
doubled
their
blowes
with
so
great
furie
vpon
Rosicleer
,
that
it
had
bene
sufficient
to
haue
hewen
a
rocke
in
péeces
,
so
that
in
a
short
time
they
made
him
verie
faint
and
wearie
,
brusing
his
flesh
and
bones
,
although
their
swordes
could
not
enter
nor
cut
his
inchanted
armor
.
And
of
truth
,
if
that
this
battaile
had
endured
long
,
hée
had
béene
brought
into
the
greatest
perill
that
euer
he
saw
himselfe
in
,
in
all
his
life
,
for
that
these
two
Gyants
were
young-men
,
and
the
most
strongest
that
were
to
be
found
amongst
all
Gyants
.
But
yet
at
this
instant
Acorante
was
so
weak
and
féeble
by
the
losse
of
much
bloud
,
that
he
coulde
not
stand
on
his
féete
,
but
fell
downe
to
the
ground
as
though
he
had
béene
dead
.
Then
he
finding
himselfe
alone
with
Rubero
,
the
battaile
was
more
indifferent
,
&
the
one
did
charge
the
other
verie
stronglie
▪
striking
whereas
they
thought
they
should
doe
most
harme
,
each
to
his
aduersarie
,
but
Rubero
for
the
death
of
his
brother
was
so
full
of
wrath
and
ire
,
that
he
made
little
account
of
the
blowes
that
Rosicleer
did
strike
him
,
although
his
●ine
cutting
sworde
had
so
sore
wounded
him
in
many
partes
,
that
his
death
could
not
bée
long
dilated
,
by
reason
of
the
great
quantitie
of
bloud
that
ranne
out
of
them
.
These
Gyantes
had
certaine
knightes
which
alwayes
went
with
them
,
who
at
this
verie
instant
came
vnto
the
same
place
whereas
they
made
their
battaile
,
but
yet
in
anie
manner
of
wise
they
durst
not
helpe
their
Lordes
,
for
that
many
times
before
they
had
plagued
them
,
and
giuen
them
warning
,
that
whensoeuer
they
were
in
battaile
with
equall
knightes
,
that
none
of
them
shoulde
aide
or
succour
them
,
for
which
occasion
they
stoode
still
,
and
were
in
quiet
,
till
such
time
as
they
sawe
one
of
their
Lordes
lie
along
vpon
the
ground
as
though
he
had
bene
dead
,
and
the
other
so
sore
wounded
,
that
he
could
not
long
indure
,
neither
could
they
anie
longer
refraine
themselues
,
but
all
together
(
who
were
more
than
fifteene
)
all
wel
armed
,
went
against
Rosicleer
,
and
began
to
charge
him
with
verie
thicke
and
strong
blowes
,
but
Rubero
when
he
sawe
this
did
put
himselfe
before
them
,
and
cried
out
that
they
should
departe
and
let
him
alone
,
but
they
would
not
retire
,
but
still
pressed
on
all
that
euer
they
coulde
.
Then
he
returned
against
them
with
his
sword
,
and
did
so
much
,
that
against
their
will
hee
made
them
to
retire
.
Then
would
he
haue
returned
againe
vnto
the
battaile
,
but
Rosicleer
li●t
vp
the
vizor
of
his
he●me
and
sayd
.
God
forbid
that
I
should
be
ouercome
at
thy
hands
more
than
at
one
time
,
for
this
which
at
this
time
thou
hast
vsed
with
me
,
hath
rendered
mee
so
much
,
that
I
will
put
my selfe
wholie
into
thy
power
,
●or
to
doe
with
mée
according
to
thy
pleasure
,
vpon
this
condition
,
that
you
giue
vnto
this
Damsell
free
and
whole
libertie
,
who
was
the
occasion
of
this
battaile
which
hath
béen
begun
and
continued
betwixt
vs
.
You
shall
vnderstand
,
that
all
the
sonnes
of
Roboan
were
by
nature
well
conditioned
,
and
this
Rubero
the
third
sonne
was
the
best
of
them
all
,
who
acknowledging
the
greate
vantage
that
Rosicleer
had
of
him
(
although
all
the
knights
had
h●lpen
him
)
and
how
that
his
wordes
which
hee
hadde
spoken
proceeded
of
great
vertue
,
hée
then
vnlaced
his
healme
and
sayd
.
Let
not
my
fortune
permit
,
that
against
him
who
hath
so
great
vauntage
on
me
,
as
well
in
vertue
as
in
strength
,
that
I
make
anie
more
contention
or
farther
〈◊〉
,
for
that
in
the
ende
both
in
the
one
and
in
the
other
,
I
cannot
choose
but
néedes
must
bée
ouercome
and
loose
the
victorie
.
This
damsell
is
thine
and
thou
hast
wonne
her
,
and
nowe
looke
what
is
thy
pleasure
to
be
done
with
vs
,
for
that
all
shall
be
accomplished
as
you
wil
command
.
Then
Rosicleer
did
embrace
him
with
great
loue
,
and
both
of
them
together
went
to
helpe
vp
Acorante
,
who
was
so
féeble
that
he
could
not
moue
himselfe
,
but
when
that
they
had
pulled
off
his
healme
,
and
giuen
him
aire
,
hée
began
to
come
better
vnto
himselfe
,
and
gather
some
strength
.
Then
the
Quéene
Iulia
with
a
péece
of
a
vaile
which
she
had
,
bound
vp
his
wounds
and
stanched
the
bloud
,
by
vertue
of
a
stone
which
she
had
in
a
ring
,
as
one
that
in
all
things
was
a
damsell
verie
wise
,
and
of
great
discretion
.
When
all
this
was
done
,
the
Quéene
sayd
vnto
Rosicleer
.
Happie
and
fortunate
knight
,
if
you
doe
well
remember
the
condition
wherewith
you
got
this
sword
that
you
now
possesse
,
in
great
Britaine
,
it
was
,
that
you
should
combat
with
two
Gyants
together
for
the
deliuerie
of
a
Damsell
.
When
Rosicleer
heard
these
wordes
,
being
greatlie
amazed
how
she
should
come
to
the
knowledge
thereof
,
he
said
:
I
doe
well
remember
the
same
.
Well
then
(
said
she
)
now
may
you
well
vnderstand
and
sée
,
how
that
the
condition
is
well
accomplished
,
for
that
you
haue
had
the
battaile
with
these
two
Gyants
for
to
deliuer
me
that
am
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
she
who
with
her
owne
handes
did
forge
the
sword
that
you
now
haue
at
your
girdle
,
hauing
experience
before
,
how
much
it
should
profit
you
in
this
battaile
for
my
deliuerie
.
Good
Ladie
(
saide
Rosicleer
)
what
fortune
hath
brought
so
wise
and
high
a
Damsell
in
this
sorte
into
this
Countrie
?
That
fortune
(
sayd
the
Quéene
)
that
could
ouerthrowe
the
mightie
Alycandro
from
the
high
throne
wherevnto
he
was
exalted
,
and
bring
him
to
bée
prisoner
,
●oyntlie
with
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
his
daughter
,
in
the
power
of
two
Gyants
,
who
carryed
them
yesterdaie
vnto
the
high
Castle
that
standeth
vppon
yonder
mountaine
.
This
is
shée
that
no
force
nor
humane
wisedome
is
able
for
to
deliuer
from
the
subiection
of
her
tumbling
and
tourning
whéele
.
And
as
I
came
with
the
Princesse
,
thinking
for
to
escape
from
the
prison
(
whether
as
they
carryed
her
)
I
ran
away
secretly
and
put
my selfe
amongst
these
Rocks
,
but
yet
in
the
ende
I
chaunced
to
fall
into
a
daunger
no
lesse
perillous
then
that
,
out
of
the
which
I
thought
to
haue
escaped
.
At
which
words
Rosicleer
was
greatly
amazed
and
saide
,
is
it
possible
to
be
true
,
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
and
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
are
prisoners
.
It
is
of
trueth
sayde
the
Quéene
,
for
that
two
Gyants
did
carrie
them
vnto
yonder
castell
.
Well
then
let
vs
goe
thether
out
of
hand
,
sayd
Rosicleer
,
for
with
a
verie
good
will
I
will
aduenture
my
life
for
to
●et
at
libertie
,
so
high
personages
.
It
shall
not
be
nedefull
said
Rubero
,
for
that
those
two
who
did
carrie
them
be
our
bretheren
,
and
sonnes
vnto
Roboan
our
Father
,
therefore
let
vs
go
straight
waies
thether
,
for
by
your
intercession
they
and
all
those
that
be
prisoners
in
the
castell
shal
be
set
at
libertie
.
Rosicleer
receiued
great
contentment
at
that
which
Rubero
had
sayde
,
and
gratifying
him
,
they
all
together
went
towards
the
castell
,
and
their
knights
did
carrie
Acorante
in
their
armes
,
for
that
he
was
very
sore
wounded
.
And
it
fell
out
in
this
sort
,
that
as
those
that
were
in
the
castell
did
heare
the
great
noyse
that
was
made
in
the
battaile
,
with
clittering
of
their
armour
Roboan
and
his
sonnes
were
in
their
beddes
very
sore
hurt
,
and
could
not
aryse
,
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
being
very
desirous
to
know
what
it
should
bée
,
for
that
it
séemed
vnto
him
,
to
be
some
contension
or
cumbat
fought
by
valiant
and
worthie
knights
,
he
went
foorth
of
the
castell
,
and
all
alone
on
horsebacke
he
rode
that
way
,
whereas
Rosicleer
and
the
giants
should
come
.
And
when
that
he
saw
them
comming
a
farre
of
,
he
straight
waies
vnderstoode
that
they
should
be
the
sonnes
of
Roboan
,
that
came
from
the
Sea
,
&
brought
with
them
some
prise
,
but
when
that
he
came
nigher
vnto
them
,
he
was
greatly
amazed
to
sée
those
Gyants
so
sore
wounded
,
&
could
not
immagine
who
should
doe
the
same
,
till
such
time
as
he
asked
of
one
that
came
formost
,
with
whome
they
had
had
battaile
,
but
they
were
all
so
sad
and
sorowfull
,
that
they
would
not
aunswere
him
any
word
,
but
passed
forwardes
on
without
making
anie
reckoning
of
him
,
for
the
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
being
somwhat
ang●ie
,
tooke
one
of
them
by
the
horse
bridle
,
and
sayde
that
hée
should
not
depart
thence
till
such
time
as
he
had
tolde
him
.
Then
this
knight
who
was
more
proude
than
curteous
,
without
speaking
anie
worde
drew
out
his
sword
,
and
stroke
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
a
mightie
bl●we
vppon
his
helme
,
thinking
therewith
to
haue
parted
his
head
in
two
péeces
,
but
it
had
ben
much
better
for
him
not
to
haue
begun
that
contention
with
him
whome
he
did
not
know
,
and
to
haue
answered
him
to
his
demand
,
it
would
haue
hindered
him
nothing
at
all
.
But
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
being
verie
angrie
at
his
great
villanie
,
stroke
him
such
a
blowe
with
his
armed
fi●t
vpon
his
armed
head
,
that
he
buckeled
his
healme
to
his
scull
,
that
his
braines
flew
out
,
and
he
fell
from
his
horse
dead
vnto
the
ground
,
so
that
it
cost
him
his
life
,
because
hée
woulde
not
speake
,
but
vse
villanie
.
And
the
rest
which
were
of
his
companie
when
they
sawe
their
companion
thus
ouerthrowen
,
straight
waies
beganne
to
make
contention
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
in
drawing
out
their
swordes
,
and
charging
him
with
their
blowes
on
euerie
side
,
but
before
that
they
could
fall
in
the
reckoning
of
the
great
errour
the
which
they
had
committed
,
the
most
part
of
them
were
slaine
and
ouerthrowen
to
the
ground
,
and
not
one
of
them
had
remained
aliue
,
if
that
at
this
instant
had
not
come
Rosicleer
,
who
was
behinde
all
the
rest
,
who
when
hée
sawe
the
great
slaughter
that
the
Knight
of
the
Sunne
had
done
in
so
short
a
time
,
hée
was
greatlie
amazed
,
and
for
that
hée
could
not
knowe
who
hée
was
,
and
was
verie
desirous
to
proue
himselfe
with
him
,
for
to
bée
reuenged
for
the
death
of
those
knightes
,
he
caused
the
other
for
to
aparte
themselues
,
and
with
his
sworde
in
his
hande
he
assaulted
him
,
charging
him
with
those
strong
and
heauie
blowes
which
he
was
wont
to
vse
,
and
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
not
knowing
him
,
but
beleeuing
within
himselfe
that
he
had
bene
one
of
the
companie
of
the
other
knightes
of
the
Gyantes
,
dyd
receiue
him
after
such
manner
,
that
in
a
short
space
the
wrath
and
anger
both
of
the
one
&
the
other
was
greatly
increased
,
&
as
mortall
enimies
they
layde
the
one
vpon
the
other
,
making
so
great
a
noyse
,
that
it
séemed
al
the
whole
Iland
would
haue
sunke
,
where
at
the
Emperour
Alicandro
and
the
princesse
Lindabrides
did
put
themselues
at
the
windowes
of
the
castell
,
and
were
greatle
amazed
when
that
they
sawe
the
battaile
betweene
the
two
knights
,
not
knowing
who
he
shold
be
of
so
great
●orce
and
strength
,
that
could
endure
so
long
the
blowes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
:
a
good
halfe
houre
in
this
sorte
they
endured
,
charging
one
the
other
with
their
thicke
blowes
,
and
had
no
time
to
breath
themselues
,
and
séemed
to
be
all
in
burning
●ier
,
with
the
great
quantitie
of
sparkes
that
flewe
out
of
their
armour
.
Either
of
them
were
greatly
amazed
at
the
great
force
and
strength
of
his
aduersarie
,
as
they
who
neuer
had
seene
themselues
in
so
terrible
and
furious
battaile
,
for
that
,
although
they
dyd
combat
together
in
the
great
court
of
Constantinople
,
at
that
time
they
had
not
their
force
and
strength
so
perfect
,
neither
were
they
so
bigge
growen
in
parsonage
.
And
now
if
it
were
not
for
that
neither
of
them
would
seme
to
be
the
first
,
they
wold
both
haue
withdrawen
themselues
,
for
to
haue
knowen
eche
others
contrarie
,
before
they
would
haue
proceeded
in
executing
their
furious
battaile
:
but
this
point
of
honour
was
the
occasion
that
they
would
not
withdraw
themselues
,
but
procured
to
ouerpresse
each
his
aduersarie
,
all
that
euer
he
could
,
with
their
mightie
and
furious
blowes
.
Amongst
a
great
number
that
was
strooke
Rosicleer
se●led
one
blow
at
the
knight
of
the
Sun
with
his
sword
in
both
his
hands
ouerthwart
his
healme
,
that
it
depriued
him
of
all
his
sences
,
that
he
was
as
one
dead
,
till
such
time
as
he
redoubled
an
other
blow
on
him
,
whose
force
was
of
such
strength
and
might
,
that
it
made
him
to
come
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
so
amazed
,
that
he
knew
not
where
he
was
.
Then
he
foorthwith
setled
himself
firmely
in
his
Saddel
,
very
furious
&
full
of
courage
,
he
gaue
him
his
paiment
in
such
sort
,
that
Rosicleer
in
all
his
life
before
receiued
not
so
mightie
and
terrible
a
blow
,
except
it
were
that
the
which
concluded
their
contencio●s
battaile
in
Grecia
.
His
nose
gushed
out
with
bloud
,
and
he
fell
forwards
vpon
the
pomel
of
his
saddle
,
and
his
armes
hanging
downe
as
though
hée
had
bene
dead
,
and
his
horse
tourned
round
about
twise
in
the
field
with
him
,
in
which
time
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
would
not
strike
him
,
till
such
time
as
he
was
come
againe
vnto
himselfe
.
Rosicleer
called
vpon
God
for
his
aide
&
succour
,
as
he
who
found
himselfe
in
so
great
extremitie
,
that
he
thought
it
vnpossible
to
escape
from
death
,
if
he
should
receiue
such
an
other
blow
,
equal
vnto
that
he
had
receiued
.
He
then
setled
himselfe
againe
in
his
saddle
,
and
prepared
himselfe
,
to
be
reuenged
on
his
aduersarie
,
and
dyd
abyde
his
comming
with
his
sword
in
his
hande
,
with
terrible
&
furious
semblaunt
.
In
the
meane
time
whilest
they
were
recouering
of
more
furie
and
courage
for
to
charge
the
one
the
other
,
it
so
fell
out
that
the
Quéene
Iulia
being
very
desirous
to
know
who
those
knights
should
be
,
that
semed
vnto
her
to
be
the
most
biggest
of
proporcion
and
most
valiantest
that
euer
she
had
séene
in
all
her
lyfe
,
tooke
out
a
litle
quadrangel
,
(
the
which
continually
she
carried
in
her
bosome
wherewith
she
did
vse
to
make
her
cuniurations
)
and
thereby
she
found
that
these
knights
should
be
both
sonnes
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
being
certified
hereof
,
with
a
trice
she
went
vnto
them
,
and
at
such
time
as
with
furious
courage
they
began
to
strike
the
one
the
other
,
she
put
her selfe
betwixt
them
saying
:
I
doe
most
heartelie
request
you
sir
knights
,
that
you
would
staye
your
furie
a
little
,
and
to
graunt
vnto
mée
a
bowne
the
which
I
will
craue
at
your
hands
,
for
as
it
will
be
vnto
me
great
ioye
and
pleasure
,
so
will
it
be
vnto
you
profitable
.
Then
they
who
were
indewed
with
no
lesse
vertue
than
force
and
valour
,
withdrew
themselues
a
part
,
and
sayde
,
that
either
of
them
for
their
parts
,
did
graunt
her
request
.
Well
then
sayd
the
Queen●
,
seeing
that
you
haue
graunted
me
my
request
,
here
I
doe
demaund
of
you
,
that
first
before
you
doe
retourne
any
more
vnto
the
combat
,
that
either
of
you
doe
pul
of
your
healme
,
for
that
I
am
desirous
to
know
who
you
are
before
you
proceede
any
further
.
She
had
not
so
sone
spoken
these
words
,
but
these
knights
without
any
longer
tarrying
did
vnlace
their
healmes
,
and
pulled
them
of
,
being
greatly
amazed
at
that
bowne
,
which
she
demaunded
.
But
when
their
healmes
were
off
,
and
they
knew
them selues
to
be
bretheren
,
it
could
not
be
immagined
the
great
and
vnlooked
for
ioye
and
pleasure
that
they
receiued
.
For
in
place
of
their
mortall
blowes
which
they
had
giuen
before
,
they
embrased
the
one
the
other
,
as
they
which
did
loue
the
one
the
other
excéedingly
.
And
giuing
great
thanks
vnto
the
Quéene
for
that
which
she
had
done
,
they
declared
the
one
vnto
the
other
the
whole
discourse
what
had
happened
vnto
either
of
them
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
spake
vnto
the
two
bretheren
Rubero
and
Acorante
,
and
tolde
them
of
all
that
had
happened
,
who
were
not
a
little
amazed
,
to
heare
how
that
their
Father
and
bretheren
were
ouercome
by
that
alone
knight
,
and
as
a
thing
impossible
they
would
not
beléeue
it
:
then
they
went
all
together
vnto
the
castell
,
whereas
they
were
well
receiued
by
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
the
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
when
they
knew
that
that
was
Rosicleer
,
brother
vnto
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
could
not
satisfie
their
eyes
in
beholding
of
them
,
séeming
that
nature
did
very
much
straine
her selfe
in
the
forming
of
these
two
bretheren
.
After
a
while
that
they
hadde
passed
away
the
time
in
treating
of
many
things
,
they
sat
downe
and
dyd
ease
themselues
,
and
determined
to
stay
there
till
the
next
day
,
whereas
they
were
very
well
〈◊〉
of
the
wife
of
Roboan
,
who
was
Ladie
(
of
the
Gyants
nation
)
verie
honorable
,
and
neuer
tooke
pleasure
and
contentment
of
the
euill
custome
that
was
maintained
in
that
Iland
,
by
her
husband
and
sonnes
.
The
Quéene
Iulia
did
cure
the
wounds
of
them
that
were
hurt
;
as
one
that
was
experimented
and
knew
more
in
that
art
then
anie
other
.
So
they
s●ept
and
tooke
their
rest
all
that
night
in
the
castel
:
but
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
was
not
very
much
in
quiet
,
for
that
with
the
presence
of
the
faire
and
beautifull
princesse
Lyndabrides
as
also
the
remembrance
of
the
royall
princes
Claridiana
,
his
minde
was
so
troubled
,
that
he
thought
there
was
the
greatest
contention
that
might
be
immagined
with
in
his
breast
.
And
againe
,
for
to
declare
the
profound
thoughts
with
their
varieties
which
the
faire
princesse
was
troubled
with
,
it
may
be
equall
in
numbring
the
sands
of
the
sea
,
and
for
that
her
remedie
draweth
now
at
hand
,
the
historie
concludeth
this
Chapter
.
How
the
Emperour
Alicandro
&
his
companie
departed
from
the
strong
Ilande
vnto
the
Grecian
Empire
,
and
of
a
strong
battaile
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
had
with
two
knights
at
the
Sea
,
and
how
they
were
parted
,
&
after
went
together
to
Constantinople
.
Chap.
42.
THE
next
day
after
that
the
Emperour
Alicandro
was
taken
prisoner
,
they
al
made
them selues
in
a
readinesse
for
to
depart
towards
Grecia
,
the
which
being
don
,
they
all
together
entred
vnto
Roboan
and
his
sonnes
for
to
take
their
leaue
of
them
,
who
lay
in
a
great
quadran
,
euery
one
by
himselfe
,
in
very
faire
beds
.
Then
he
,
(
who
receiued
great
sorrow
for
that
they
would
depart
so
quickly
)
requested
them
to
heare
certaine
matter
that
he
had
for
to
say
and
tell
them
.
Who
being
attendant
,
held
their
peace
,
and
he
said
.
My
Lords
,
it
is
notorious
vnto
all
people
,
how
long
time
here
,
I
,
my
sonnes
,
and
forefathers
,
haue
liued
in
this
lawe
which
hetherto
I
haue
kept
,
and
the
euell
custome
which
alwaies
we
haue
maintained
.
It
hath
now
pleased
God
(
and
as
I
beleeve
for
a
farther
benefit
vnto
vs
)
that
this
happie
and
fortunate
knight
of
the
Sun
as
came
and
ariued
at
this
Iland
.
In
the
which
he
dyd
not
onely
ouercome
by
force
of
armes
,
my selfe
and
two
of
my
sonnes
,
but
also
by
the
●orce
of
his
surmounted
vertue
doth
binde
vs
,
from
this
day
forwards
for
to
accept
and
serue
him
,
as
our
proper
and
naturall
Lord
,
ioyntly
with
Rosicleer
his
brother
,
vnto
whome
hath
fallen
part
of
this
victorie
.
At
such
time
as
I
saw
my selfe
mortall
in
the
battaile
,
and
that
by
no
meanes
I
could
not
escape
,
but
be
either
slaine
or
ouercome
,
I
dyd
promise
at
that
time
,
that
which
now
I
doe
a
new
confirme
,
and
will
performe
,
which
is
,
that
I
and
my
sonnes
doe
here
promise
and
vow
before
your
high
personages
(
for
that
none
of
vs
hereafter
shall
flye
from
the
same
)
for
to
leaue
this
law
Gentilica
,
in
the
which
we
haue
liued
hetherto
,
blinde
and
deceiued
,
and
also
the
euell
and
cruell
custome
the
which
hetherto
we
haue
maintained
,
and
of
our
proper
and
frée
good
will
,
become
christians
,
and
beléeue
in
that
true
God
maker
of
all
things
,
in
whome
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
doth
beléeue
,
in
the
which
law
I
doe
promise
to
beléeue
,
so
long
as
my
life
shall
last
.
When
that
Roboan
had
concluded
these
words
,
straight
waies
his
sonnes
dyd
promise
to
performe
the
same
.
Then
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
béeing
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
for
the
same
,
did
gratifie
them
verie
much
,
and
dyd
promise
vnto
them
that
so
soone
as
God
dyd
send
them
into
Grecia
for
to
send
vnto
them
Preachers
and
Ministers
for
to
instruct
and
teach
them
in
the
law
,
and
minister
vnto
them
the
holy
Baptisme
,
the
which
euery
good
Christian
is
bound
to
take
.
Passing
betwixt
them
these
and
manie
other
thinges
,
they
all
of
them
tooke
their
leaue
of
Roboan
&
his
sonnes
,
and
of
the
Ladie
Giantesse
,
who
receiued
no
small
griefe
of
their
departure
,
and
yet
afterward
it
gréeued
her
much
more
,
for
that
there
passed
not
many
yéeres
,
there
came
vnto
that
Iland
a
Pagan
,
a
young
man
,
who
all
alone
dyd
put
them
in
great
extremitie
,
in
such
sort
that
they
were
driuen
of
necessitie
for
to
sende
vnto
the
good
knight
of
the
Sun
,
(
who
neuer
failed
to
help
the
distressed
)
to
craue
of
him
fauour
and
helpe
.
As
shal
be
●ould
you
more
at
large
in
the
second
part
of
this
historie
,
whereas
shal
be
made
manifest
,
the
immortall
actes
and
déedes
of
this
knight
.
When
they
came
vnto
the
Sea
side
,
they
all
imbarked
themselues
in
a
shippe
that
was
there
made
readie
,
and
hauing
the
winde
prosperous
,
they
hoised
out
their
sailes
and
began
to
nauigate
towards
Grecia
.
And
here
you
may
wel
beléeue
,
that
the
faire
princesse
Lindabrides
did
not
thinke
long
this
nauigatorie
,
although
it
had
bene
more
longer
then
that
of
the
Gréeke
Vlisses
:
for
that
she
dyd
there
wholely
recreate
her selfe
in
the
sight
and
swéete
conuersation
of
the
knight
of
tho
Sunne
.
Yet
for
all
that
she
feared
verie
much
(
at
the
comming
to
Constantinople
)
the
presence
of
the
princesse
Claridiana
,
with
the
which
she
should
be
clean
wipte
out
of
the
heart
of
her
knight
.
So
nauigating
in
this
sort
,
the
next
day
in
the
morning
,
two
houres
before
daye
,
it
chaunced
that
by
their
ship
there
passed
an
other
ship
hard
aboard
,
in
the
which
was
certaine
knights
,
&
one
of
them
,
who
séemed
to
be
of
a
very
bigge
stature
and
members
,
and
being
aboue
hatches
,
and
the
shippes
ioyning
very
nigh
together
,
commaunded
to
cast
out
his
grapple
into
the
other
ship
,
because
we
should
not
depart
till
such
time
as
they
had
demaunded
what
it
should
be
,
and
who
was
there
within
.
Then
he
asked
of
a
knight
that
was
the
Emperour
Alicandros
,
if
that
he
could
tell
him
anie
newes
of
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
and
of
his
daughter
the
faire
princesse
Lindabrides
,
or
of
any
damsel
of
hers
.
Ah
sir
,
yes
said
the
knight
,
for
they
are
in
this
shippe
,
&
certaine
Gréeke
knights
doth
carrie
them
vnto
Grecia
.
At
which
words
this
bigge
knight
and
an
other
,
made
no
longer
tarrying
,
but
leapt
into
their
ship
with
their
swords
drawen
in
their
handes
,
&
straight
wayes
met
with
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
,
who
when
they
vnderstood
of
the
grapling
of
their
shippes
,
lased
on
their
helmes
,
and
went
forth
to
see
what
it
shoulde
bée
,
and
when
they
saw
the
great
hast
that
the
two
knights
made
to
enter
,
with
their
swordes
in
their
handes
,
they
straight
waies
drew
out
their
swordes
and
put
themselues
before
him
,
and
sayd
:
What
is
it
that
you
would
haue
(
Si●
knights
)
that
you
make
so
great
hast
to
enter
?
We
would
sayd
one
of
them
,
that
out
of
hand
you
doe
deliuer
vnto
vs
the
prise
that
you
haue
in
your
ship
.
That
shall
you
not
haue
,
nor
carrie
with
you
,
sayd
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
for
that
we
haue
it
in
great
price
and
estimation
.
In
this
sort
it
shall
be
full
déere
vnto
you
,
aunswered
one
of
the
other
knights
,
and
straight
waies
without
anie
more
speaking
,
they
began
to
strike
at
the
two
brethren
,
each
of
them
a
blow
vpon
their
helmes
,
that
caused
either
of
them
for
to
sto●pe
with
their
knées
to
the
ground
,
and
made
them
verie
well
to
vnderstand
that
they
were
knightes
of
estimation
and
prowesse
,
but
yet
thinges
did
not
fall
out
on
their
parte
as
they
thought
,
for
that
they
,
as
those
that
in
all
the
whole
world
were
without
comparison
,
gaue
them
their
answere
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
were
forced
to
step
backwardes
thrée
paces
,
to
sustaine
themselues
from
falling
,
and
were
wonderfullie
amazed
at
the
great
force
and
strength
of
their
aduersaries
,
so
that
then
betwixt
them
beganne
the
battaile
to
bée
well
fought
with
charging
each
other
with
mightie
blowes
,
that
it
was
a
verie
straunge
thing
to
beholde
,
and
with
the
noise
of
their
mightie
and
timerous
blowes
,
it
séemed
that
those
long
and
wide
seas
did
sound
of
them
,
much
lyke
vnto
the
forced
waues
,
being
driuen
by
tempest
into
the
hollow
caues
of
the
rockes
.
And
by
reason
that
it
was
before
the
breake
of
the
daie
(
béeing
at
such
time
as
there
is
silence
with
all
thinges
)
the
mightie
noise
of
their
terrible
blowes
seemed
more
great
and
timerous
.
Neither
at
that
time
had
they
neede
of
anie
Torches
,
or
of
the
cléernesse
of
Diana
for
to
make
their
combat
,
for
that
the
innumerable
sparkes
of
fire
the
which
flew
out
of
their
fine
armour
,
gaue
such
excéeding
great
light
and
cleerenesse
,
that
if
there
had
beene
ten
knights
,
they
might
haue
séene
to
haue
fought
by
the
brightnesse
thereof
.
All
the
which
battayle
and
contention
dyd
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
the
faire
Princesse
Lindabrides
behold
,
with
all
her
damsells
;
amongst
whome
was
the
faire
●loralindia
,
daughter
vnto
the
king
of
Macedonia
,
who
were
all
greatlie
amazed
,
and
could
not
imagine
who
those
worthie
knights
should
be
,
that
against
the
knight
of
th●
Sunne
and
his
brother
could
make
so
great
resistance
.
Thus
after
one
whole
houre
that
the
battaile
was
begunne
,
those
two
brethren
,
the
sonnes
of
Trebatio
were
halfe
ashamed
that
their
aduersaries
should
so
long
endure
before
them
,
which
caused
them
to
waxe
verie
furious
and
wrathfull
,
and
to
redouble
their
blowes
in
such
sorte
,
that
I
beléeue
there
was
no
strength
nor
finenesse
of
Diamond
that
was
able
to
resist
their
terrible
blowes
,
and
their
aduersaries
féeling
the
force
of
them
were
greatlie
amazed
,
and
it
séemed
that
their
vigor
and
strength
was
increased
halfe
so
much
more
as
it
was
at
the
beginning
of
the
battaile
,
for
that
they
neuer
stroke
blowe
,
if
it
chaunced
aright
,
but
it
made
them
to
stoupe
both
with
their
handes
and
knées
vnto
the
grou●d
;
and
gaue
them
no
spate
for
to
breath
themselues
,
so
that
they
were
put
in
the
most
greatest
trauaile
that
euer
they
were
in
all
their
liues
,
but
yet
these
knightes
were
such
,
that
first
they
would
consent
to
bée
hewed
and
cut
all
to
péeces
,
before
they
woulde
yéeld
,
and
if
their
aduersaries
had
not
bene
the
myrrour
of
all
the
world
,
they
shoulde
haue
had
inough
to
doe
to
haue
escaped
out
of
their
hands
,
and
although
they
séemed
to
bée
wearie
,
yet
was
it
in
such
sorte
,
that
they
could
not
iudge
or
discerne
anie
point
of
weaknesse
in
them
,
but
rather
made
heartes
of
their
guts
,
and
so
charged
their
aduersaries
,
that
many
times
they
were
in
doubt
of
the
victorie
,
and
it
had
ben
a
battaile
verie
long
and
well
foughten
,
but
that
at
this
instant
the
daie
dyd
breake
,
and
as
the
cléerenesse
came
on
,
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
and
Floralindia
did
knowe
those
two
knights
by
their
armour
,
who
were
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
the
which
béeing
knowen
,
with
a
trice
they
went
and
put
themselues
betwixt
them
,
saying
.
Worthie
and
valiant
knightes
,
let
this
●our
rigorous
battaile
cease
,
for
that
there
is
no
reason
that
it
shoulde
procéede
anie
farther
.
Then
those
knightes
when
that
they
sawe
〈…〉
betwixt
them
,
did
straight
waies
withdrawe
themselues
,
and
made
vnto
them
great
reuerence
.
The
Emperour
straight
wayes
went
and
embraced
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
naming
them
by
their
names
,
the
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
hearing
,
they
pulled
off
their
helmes
,
and
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
went
and
embraced
those
two
knightes
,
for
the
loue
was
great
that
they
bare
vnto
him
,
the
one
for
that
he
was
brother
vnto
the
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
and
the
other
for
that
which
he
did
when
that
hee
tooke
the
battaile
for
Rosicleer
with
Bramarant
,
and
besides
all
this
,
for
their
great
valour
and
bountie
they
were
to
bee
esteemed
amongst
all
in
the
world
.
But
when
that
these
two
vnderstood
with
whome
they
had
made
their
battaile
,
it
was
no
small
ioy
and
pleasure
that
they
receiued
,
for
that
they
desired
verie
much
their
friendship
,
after
such
time
as
in
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
they
sawe
the
one
to
kill
the
Gran
Campion
,
and
the
other
dyd
combat
for
them
twaine
with
Bramarant
,
but
more
was
their
ioy
when
that
they
vnderstoode
what
they
had
done
in
the
deliuerie
of
the
Emperour
out
of
prison
,
with
the
Ladies
and
all
their
damselles
from
the
power
of
Roboan
and
his
sonnes
,
they
knew
not
how
to
gratifie
that
great
goodnesse
,
but
offered
themselues
to
be
their
friends
,
and
craued
pardon
of
all
that
was
past
.
And
when
they
vnderstoode
that
the
Emperour
of
his
owne
good
will
went
vnto
Grecia
,
for
to
conclude
a
league
of
friendship
with
the
mightie
Emperour
●rebatio
,
these
two
valiant
knightes
were
excéeding
gladde
and
ioyfull
,
for
that
they
had
a
most
earnest
desire
to
hee
in
that
Court
.
Thus
after
there
had
passed
betwixt
them
many
things
,
their
ioy
and
pleasure
was
such
,
that
it
séemed
to
make
void
the
remembrance
of
all
troubles
and
aduersities
past
,
and
so
dyd
prosecute
their
voiage
●owardes
Constantinople
.
The
Prince
Meridian
was
more
ioyfull
than
the
rest
,
and
receiued
greater
contentment
for
that
he
had
with
him
his
welbeloued
spouse
the
Princesse
Floralindia
,
and
againe
,
for
that
hee
went
towardes
Grecia
,
whereas
was
the
king
of
Macedonia
forth
vnto
the
Princesse
,
with
whom
he
hoped
to
make
friendship
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
he
might
haue
her
to
wife
,
which
was
the
thing
that
the
Princesse
most
desired
.
After
this
sort
they
did
nauigate
by
sea
foure
dayes
with
prosperous
windes
,
in
the
end
whereof
they
ariued
at
Grecia
in
the
mightie
Porte
of
Constantinople
,
whereas
straight
wayes
they
gaue
to
vnderstand
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
of
their
ariuall
.
With
which
newes
,
hée
and
all
those
of
his
Court
were
excéeding
ioyfull
,
for
that
they
lacked
no
other
thing
entirelie
for
to
celebrate
the
triumph
of
that
victorie
which
they
had
got
.
Then
straightwaies
the
Emperour
Trebatio
béeing
accompanied
with
those
mightie
kinges
and
Princes
,
and
worthie
knightes
that
were
with
him
,
went
forth
of
Constantinople
for
to
receiue
them
at
the
port
,
and
the
quantitie
of
people
was
so
great
that
went
forth
with
them
,
that
all
those
wide
and
broade
fields
and
mountaines
séemed
to
bée
peopled
with
them
,
and
although
the
dead
bodies
by
the
commandement
of
the
Emperour
were
burnt
,
yet
for
all
that
,
all
those
f●eldes
and
plaines
were
stained
with
the
bloud
that
was
there
shed
.
When
the
Emperour
Trebatio
with
all
that
royall
and
worthie
companie
came
vnto
the
Port
,
straight
wayes
the
Emperour
Alycandro
and
all
those
that
came
with
him
,
went
a
land
,
whereas
their
receiuing
was
as
vnto
such
personages
did
appertaine
,
but
in
especial
with
those
two
Emperours
,
for
in
a
great
space
they
were
embraced
together
,
and
did
not
loose
the
one
from
the
other
,
in
which
time
there
passed
betwixt
them
many
wordes
of
singular
great
loue
,
as
though
they
had
béene
alwaies
before
great
friends
,
and
the
Emperor
Trebatio
did
giue
him
great
thanks
,
gratifying
him
for
his
comming
into
Grecia
,
offering
him
great
offers
by
word
of
mouth
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
Emperour
Alycandro
thought
himselfe
fullie
satisfied
,
&
receiued
more
pleasure
at
that
returne
,
than
he
did
at
his
first
comming
into
that
Countrie
.
Then
straightwaies
the
Emperor
●rebatio
receiued
with
great
curtesse
the
two
Princes
,
Meridian
&
Brandimardo
,
&
did
embrace
them
with
as
much
loue
as
he
did
his
owne
sonnes
that
came
with
them
.
For
you
shal
vnderstand
,
that
he
was
a
Prince
,
that
in
all
the
world
could
not
be
found
his
equall
,
in
maintaining
&
honouring
of
good
and
valiant
knights
,
which
was
the
occasion
,
that
whatsoeuer
knight
he
was
that
once
came
into
his
companie
,
could
neuer
finde
himselfe
in
anie
other
place
,
but
onelie
in
his
Court.
Then
he
receiued
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
,
in
doing
vnto
her
great
curtesie
and
honour
,
as
vnto
the
highest
damsell
in
al
the
whole
world
,
and
vnto
one
that
did
deserue
it
.
But
when
the
king
of
Mae●donia
dyd
see
the
faire
Princesse
〈◊〉
his
daughter
,
and
the
Prince
M●rridian
to
demand
his
hands
for
to
kisse
them
,
there
was
no
●oy
and
pleasure
that
might
happen
vnto
a
Father
,
to
be
compared
vnto
●is
,
and
hée
went
and
embraced
them
,
keeping
them
betwi●t
his
armes
a
great
while
before
that
hée
would
let
them
loose
.
Thus
af●er
one
whole
houre
that
there
had
〈◊〉
betwixt
them
many
〈◊〉
at
their
meeting
,
they
all
together
with
〈◊〉
triumph
tooke
their
waie
towards
the
Citie
of
〈◊〉
.
And
it
was
a
wonderfull
thing
to
beholde
,
and
wo●thie
to
bée
noted
,
to
see
so
noble
and
worthie
●nightes
to
accompanie
them
,
that
it
might
well
bee
sayde
,
that
there
was
neuer
seene
so
highe
and
worthie
a
companie
ioyned
together
.
Likewise
at
this
present
it
was
needfull
of
a
better
Painter
than
euer
was
Appelles
,
or
that
worthie
Pirgotiles
,
for
to
paint
and
set
forth
the
faire
and
rubicend
face
of
the
Princesse
Lynd●brides
,
by
reason
of
the
differences
of
varietie
of
coulours
which
went
and
came
,
at
such
time
as
shée
remembred
how
that
the
Princesse
Claridiana
shoulde
receiue
her
in
the
Pallace
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
also
of
that
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
would
conceiue
in
his
heart
when
he
sawe
the
same
,
the
which
thoughts
did
make
her
to
go
in
so
great
confusion
,
as
to
your
iudgement
I
doe
referre
it
,
her
loue
was
so
great
the
which
she
bare
vnto
him
,
that
shée
could
not
bée
without
great
iuspition
of
alteration
,
when
that
she
considered
of
the
great
worthinesse
and
desert
of
the
Princesse
Claridiana
.
So
that
the
whole
world
was
nothing
in
comparison
,
that
she
would
giue
,
on
condition
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
might
neuer
sée
the
Princesse
.
If
she
were
sure
thereof
,
then
were
she
fullie
certefied
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
would
not
chaunge
her
for
anie
other
Ladie
or
damsel
in
all
the
whole
world
.
When
they
were
entered
into
the
Citie
,
and
came
vnto
the
pallace
,
those
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
did
descend
from
their
horses
those
faire
Ladies
and
damsels
,
and
being
mounted
into
the
great
hall
,
the
Empresse
Briana
with
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
and
the
Princesse
Oliuia
and
Lindaraza
,
with
al
the
rest
of
those
high
and
worthie
Ladies
&
Gentlewomen
that
were
with
them
,
came
forth
and
did
receiue
them
with
that
honor
that
was
requisite
vnto
so
high
and
mightie
personages
.
And
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
with
Meridian
and
Brandimardo
,
meruailed
greatlie
to
sée
the
soueraigne
beautie
that
was
there
assembled
together
,
which
seemed
vnto
them
,
as
it
was
true
,
that
in
all
the
whole
worlde
could
not
the
like
be
séene
,
but
when
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
went
to
embrace
the
roiall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
Good
Lord
how
her
hart
was
troubled
,
to
see
in
her
rubicond
face
,
al
the
beautie
in
the
world
to
be
comprehended
,
and
also
how
that
her
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
his
eies
fixed
on
her
.
At
that
instant
shee
thought
verilie
her
soule
would
haue
departed
from
her
bodie
,
&
almost
she
could
not
go
forwards
,
neither
scarce
speake
a
word
she
was
in
such
a
trance
.
The
which
was
all
contrarie
in
the
Princesse
Claridiana
,
for
as
shee
was
sure
of
the
loue
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
●o
did
shée
shew
her selfe
verie
merrie
and
content
,
and
gaue
the
princesse
to
vnderstand
that
shée
receiued
great
ioy
at
her
comming
thether
.
Likewise
with
no
lesse
ioy
and
louing
embracings
dyd
the
faire
Princesse
Oliuia
receiue
her
welbeloued
Rosicleer
,
as
though
they
had
not
séene
themselues
together
in
one
whole
yeere
.
Then
the
Empresse
Briana
tooke
by
the
hands
the
two
Ladies
Lindabrides
and
Floralindia
,
&
hauing
done
their
salutations
the
one
vnto
the
other
,
they
altogether
entered
into
a
verie
faire
and
great
qu●dran
,
wheras
the
Empresse
and
all
those
Ladies
and
damsells
did
sit
downe
in
a
place
by
themselues
,
and
the
two
Emperours
with
all
those
worthie
Princes
&
knights
on
the
other
part
by
themselues
,
whereas
they
passed
awaie
the
time
in
gallant
and
pleasant
conuersation
,
till
such
time
as
it
was
time
to
goe
to
dinner
,
and
sitting
downe
,
they
were
serued
verie
highlie
&
suniptuouslie
,
as
in
the
pallace
o●
so
mightie
a
Prince
was
requisite
,
and
in
the
meane
time
that
they
were
at
dinner
,
there
was
he●rd
no
other
thing
but
the
sweete
noise
of
many
instruments
,
and
in
all
the
whole
Citie
was
there
so
great
triumph
and
pastimes
,
that
it
se●med
at
that
instant
the
G●eekes
did
celebrate
the
victorie
of
their
won
battailes
.
How
Rosicleer
and
Lyri●mandro
at
the
commandement
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
went
into
●ungar●a
,
to
m●ke
themselues
knowen
vnto
the
king
,
and
to
giue
him
to
vnderstand
of
all
that
had
passed
in
Grecia
.
Chapter

21.
WHen
the
next
daie
was
come
,
and
the
Emperour
sawe
his
Court
of
so
great
sonera●gntie
,
as
neuer
was
the
lyke
séene
by
Pri●ce
in
all
the
whole
worlde
,
hee
thought
that
there
lacked
nothing
〈◊〉
for
to
reioyce
the
victorie
of
their
triumphant
battailes
wonne
,
but
onelie
the
presence
of
the
king
of
〈◊〉
,
Father
vnto
the
Empresse
Briana
,
his
louing
and
welbeloued
wife
,
and
for
to
intreate
with
him
of
that
concord
and
friendship
as
ought
to
be
betweene
Father
and
sonne
in
lawe
,
and
also
that
he
might
see
the
great
magnisicence
and
high
throne
,
into
the
which
Fortune
(
gouerned
by
the
will
of
God
)
hath
mounted
him
vnto
,
so
that
if
he
did
see
that
his
Court
in
so
great
abundance
of
riches
,
and
adorned
with
so
soueraigne
Princes
and
knightes
,
hee
would
thinke
himselfe
verie
well
contented
and
satisfied
of
the
chaunge
that
was
made
for
the
Prince
of
great
Britaine
,
and
also
that
he
might
recreate
himselfe
in
that
ioy
and
glorie
which
should
procéede
of
the
sight
and
acknowledging
of
his
worthie
newnesse
,
by
the
which
he
should
receiue
great
contentment
,
and
account
himselfe
to
be
the
most
happiest
&
fortunate
Prince
in
all
the
whole
world
.
And
hauing
this
in
his
minde
,
he
straight
waies
went
vnto
the
Empresse
〈◊〉
,
for
to
communicate
with
her
about
the
same
,
who
was
in
the
same
determination
and
care
,
as
she
that
desired
no
other
thing
but
to
sée
her
Father
present
,
for
that
he
might
bée
pertaker
of
h●r
great
triumph
and
glorie
.
Thus
being
both
of
one
minde
and
determination
,
they
straight
waies
gaue
their
valiant
and
worthie
sonnes
to
vnderstand
thereof
,
betwixt
whom
there
straight
waies
grew
a
great
contention
,
which
of
them
two
should
be
the
messenger
.
The
knight
of
the
Sun
sayd
,
that
in
times
past
(
without
knowing
anie
kindred
to
be
betwixt
them
)
he
did
him
a
great
griefe
&
anger
,
&
that
now
he
would
make
a
recompence
for
the
same
,
in
carying
him
this
message
.
And
Rosicleer
said
,
that
he
was
nourished
and
brought
vp
in
the
Monasterie
of
the
●iuer
,
&
how
that
there
remaineth
his
fained
parents
Leonardo
and
his
wife
,
whom
he
thought
to
haue
bene
his
naturall
father
&
mother
,
and
had
great
desire
to
sée
them
,
and
to
recompence
them
the
great
benefit
that
he
ought
them
,
&
more
hee
sayd
,
how
that
Lyriamandro
was
so
much
his
friend
,
that
he
left
his
Father
for
his
loue
,
for
the
which
his
perfect
friendship
will
not
consent
,
but
that
he
must
beare
the
Prince
companie
,
for
to
giue
him
that
great
ioy
and
contentment
which
he
shall
receiue
at
the
seeing
of
him
,
séeing
that
by
his
occasion
he
hath
ben
so
long
without
his
companie
.
The
contention
was
so
great
betwixt
these
two
brethren
,
which
of
them
should
goe
vpon
this
message
,
that
in
the
conclusion
they
should
goe
both
of
them
together
,
if
that
the
Emperor
Trebatio
had
not
staied
them
,
in
saying
that
it
did
not
séeme
wel
that
in
the
time
of
great
ioy
and
pastimes
,
accompanied
with
so
many
strange
and
worthie
knightes
in
this
Court
,
they
should
both
be
lacking
,
or
at
least
wayes
one
of
them
.
In
conclusion
,
séeming
vnto
〈◊〉
that
Rosicleer
had
greatest
reason
for
to
goe
and
acknowledge
the
king
his
graunfather
,
for
that
he
had
neuer
seene
him
,
they
were
content
that
he
should
goe
on
the
message
,
and
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
shoulde
remaine
in
the
Court
,
for
that
he
shoulde
haue
time
enough
to
be
knowen
of
the
king
,
and
that
he
was
fullie
satisfied
of
his
great
beautie
.
These
two
knights
wer
such
and
of
so
great
obedience
,
that
they
hadde
no
other
delight
but
to
giue
contentment
vnto
their
parents
,
so
that
Rosicleer
prepared
himselfe
for
the
voyage
.
But
first
he
went
vnto
his
verie
friend
Liriamandro
,
and
told
vnto
him
all
that
the
Emperour
his
Father
had
ordained
,
who
receiued
great
pleasure
thereat
,
as
he
that
had
great
desire
for
to
see
the
king
his
Father
,
wherby
he
m●ght
acknowledge
his
neuewes
,
and
vnderstand
of
the
good
and
happie
fortune
of
the
Empresse
his
sister
,
who
aboue
all
the
Ladies
in
the
whole
world
is
most
exalted
,
&
therewith
he
embrased
Rosicleer
very
much
,
and
was
verie
glad
of
that
which
was
determined
,
and
straight
waies
they
both
together
went
and
dyd
take
their
leaue
of
the
Emperour
and
of
the
Empresse
,
who
dyd
recomend
them
vnto
G●d
,
and
gaue
them
great
charge
,
that
their
retourne
with
the
king
might
be
short
,
for
that
till
their
retourne
they
should
not
rec●iue
any
ioy
or
contentment
.
So
hauing
taken
〈◊〉
leaue
for
to
depart
,
such
as
did
loue
him
,
as
the
king
Sicrido●o
,
and
the
valiant
Ta●ta●o
,
with
Bargandel
,
were
verie
desirous
for
to
beare
them
companie
,
as
his
perfect
and
good
friends
,
came
vnto
him
and
offered
their
seruice
.
But
Rosicleer
whole
desire
was
for
to
goe
that
iourney
alone
,
with
courteous
woords
did
gratifie
their
good
wil
,
and
desired
them
to
pardon
him
,
at
that
instant
,
for
that
by
the
helpe
of
almightie
God
,
his
retourne
should
be
verie
shortly
.
And
there
with
these
two
worthie
princes
with
alonely
two
Squires
,
departed
out
of
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constanti●op●e
,
and
hauing
passed
through
all
the
whole
Empire
of
〈◊〉
,
that
came
vnto
Danubia
,
the
which
descendeth
from
Hungaria
.
(
And
when
they
should
passe
the
mightie
bridge
wherea●
th●
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
taken
prisoner
by
the
parents
and
friends
of
Florinaldus
they
were
strangelie
amazed
to
see
the
great
and
mightie
edifices
of
the
Castle
that
●eemed
we●e
burned
and
destroyed
▪
and
such
relikes
as
remained

as
péeces

did
put
g●eat
admiration
in
al

that
passed
that●
waie
,
and
béeing
ve●ie
desirous
to
kno●e
what
was
the
occasion

great
destruction

they
stayed

procured

sée
if

could

anie
〈…〉
that
could
giue
them
relation
thereof

and
by
c●aunce
they
found
certaine
men
that
did
dwell
in

s●me
place

w●o
declar●d
vnto
them
the
whole
circumstance
of
that
which
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
had
there
done
,
from
the
first
contention
that
he
had
with
Flo●●naldos
,
till
after
he
was
cl●●re
out
of
prison
whereas
he
was
,
and
how
the
Castle
with
all
the
towers
wer
destroied
,
and
left
in
that
order
as
they
●aw
it
,
the
which
when
they
vnderstoode
,
without
lac●ing
anie
part
thereof
,
they
were
wonderfullie
amazed
,
as
well
a●
the
strange
buildings
which
séemed
to
ha●e
〈…〉
at
the
valiant
and
worthie
〈◊〉
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
they
who
had
séene
by
experience
many
of
his
wonderfull
deedes
,
sayde
that
with
great
reason
they
ought
to
put
in
obliuion
the
acts
done
by
the
ancient
and
f●m●us
knights
,
of
whose
worthie
deedes
the
world
doth
resound
,
for
that
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
was
such
a
one
,
that
not
one
of
them
might
bée
compared
vnto
him
.
In
this
sorte
,
when
they
had
heard
the
whole
discourse
of
their
desire
,
béeing
verie
glad
and
ioyfull
thereof
,
they
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
him
who
had
made
it
manifest
vnto
them
,
and
departed
from
thence
,
and
hauing
vnderstanding
how
that
the
king
was
in
a
●itie
called
Viana
,
which
was
vpon
Danubia
,
they
tooke
their
iourney
along
the
riuer
vpwardes
,
towards
the
said
Citie
,
and
hauing
traua●led
many
daies
thetherwards
,
in
the
end
they
came
within
thrée
miles
of
the
mightie
Citie
,
about
the
houre
of
one
of
the
clocke
in
the
after
noone
,
at
which
time
the
great
heate
of
the
Sunne
vnto
such
as
doe
trauaile
is
most
troublesome
,
and
beeing
troubled
with
the
great
heate
,
these
two
knightes
determined
to
put
themselues
out
of
the
high
waie
,
and
to
enter
into
a
verie
faire
and
fresh
Orchard
that
was
there
at
hand
,
and
there
to
rest
and
recreate
themselues
till
the
force
of
the
heate
were
past
,
and
looking
towards
the
Citie
,
they
sawe
comming
towards
them
a
damsell
mounted
vppon
a
Pal●●aie
,
with
so
great
speede
as
her
palsraie
coulde
runne
,
and
as
one
that
made
hast
to
accomplish
some
great
necessitie
.
And
séeing
her
to
come
with
so
great
hast
,
they
were
verie
desirous
to
knowe
the
occasion
thereof
,
which
made
them
for
to
staie
vntill
her
comming
thether
,
and
drawing
more
●gher
vnto
them
,
they
●awe
that
the
wept
and
made
great
lamentation
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
shée
was
all
wet
with
teares
.
But
when
shee
sawe
the
two
knightes
,
shee
began
to
weepe
more
pittifullie
,
and
to
lift
vp
her
lamentable
voice
,
saying
after
this
sort
.
Oh
ius●ice
of
God
,
how
do
you
permit
that
so
great
treason
be
done
v●to
so
high
a
damsell
as
shée
is
,
&
that
there
is
not
a
knight
in
all
the
world
that
will
defend
her
iustice
and
q●arr●ll
?
Th●se
two
knights
when
they
heard
these
words
were
more
desirous
than
before
,
to
vnderstand
the
effect
thereof
,
and
put
themselues
before
the
damsell
,
and
staying
her
ha●●ie
iou●ney
,
one
of
them
said
:
Damsell
,
we
praie
you
to
let
〈◊〉
a
while
this
your
complaint
and
wéeping
,
and
declare
vnto
vs
the
occasion
of
this
your
great
sorrow
,
for
that
we
are
knight●
that
with
a
verie
good
will
,
will
offer
our
persons
to
put
remedie
therein
,
if
it
bee
a
thing
that
with
reason
and
with
our
honours
wee
maye
performe
.
Then
the
Damsell
when
shee
heard
those
curteous
wordes
did
verie
much
beholde
them
,
and
sawe
that
they
were
knightes
verie
stronglie
and
richlie
armed
,
and
of
a
gallant
and
stout
proportion
,
shee
coniectured
that
they
shoulde
bée
kn●ghts
of
great
bountie
,
and
straungers
in
that
Countrie
,
for
that
at
anie
time
shee
had
not
seene
in
the
Court
of
the
king
,
〈◊〉
of
so
gallant
and
warlike
disposition
,
and
haui●g
more
hope
than
shee
brought
with
her
,
shée
answered
them
〈◊〉
sayd
.
Sir
knights
,
a
heauie
thing
it
is
that
you
doe
demaund
of
mée
,
to
cause
mée
now
for
to
stay
,
and
declare
vnto
you
the
dolorous
care
that
I
haue
within
mée
,
the
which
onely
for
to
expresse
,
will
cause
my
griefe
to
renew
and
increase
,
and
I
doe
beléeue
that
there
is
no
heart
so
hard
,
but
of
my
sorrow
will
take
great
compassion
.
But
for
that
you
haue
vsed
vnto
mée
so
great
courtesie
in
your
words
,
and
againe
the
good
disposition
of
your
persons
,
doe
giue
mée
to
vnderstand
that
my
labour
shall
not
be
in
vaine
,
for
to
giue
you
to
vnderstande
of
the
greatest
treason
that
euer
you
haue
heard
of
,
the
which
was
done
vnto
a
faire
Damsell
of
high
estate
,
and
is
the
occasion
of
all
this
my
sorrow
.
You
shall
vnderstand
sir
knights
,
that
in
the
court
of
the
king
T●berio
of
Hungaria
,
who
is
at
this
instant
in
the
citie
of
Viana
,
the
Quéene
Augusta
,
wife
vnto
the
king
Tiberio
,
●ath
in
her
companie
manie
Ladies
and
gentlewomen
of
great
beautie
and
high
estate
,
of
all
the
principallest
of
Germania
,
amongst
whom
,
there
was
one
,
who
as
well
in
beautie
as
in
riches
and
estate
,
did
passe
and
surmoun●
all
the
rest
,
and
is
the
Dutches
of
Austria
,
called
the
faire
Polisena
,
for
that
her
great
beautie
and
faireness●e
(
as
they
say
)
is
equall
vnto
that
,
that
was
of
the
daughter
of
P●●a●o
.
When
this
damsell
came
vnto
the
age
of
twelue
yéeres
,
her
father
dyed
,
and
for
that
she
was
so
young
and
tender
of
age
,
(
although
heire
vnto
that
high
estate
)
the
Queene
Augusta
did
take
her
into
her
companie
,
and
it
is
now
full
foure
yéeres
since
her
first
comming
into
the
court
.
In
which
time
as
she
increased
as
well
in
beautie
as
in
yéeres
,
manie
worthie
knights
of
high
estate
and
renowme
that
saw
her
,
dyd
procure
by
all
meanes
possible
,
for
to
marrie
with
her
,
amongest
whome
there
was
none
that
she
could
fancie
or
beare
any
good
will
,
or
perfect
loue
vnto
,
but
the
gallant
Lusiano
,
prince
of
Su●uia
,
who
was
the
gallantest
proporcioned
and
stoutest
knight
,
that
at
this
present
is
to
be
found
in
all
the
prouinces
of
Germania
.
It
is
now
more
then
thrée
yéeres
since
this
Prince
did
begin
to
loue
and
serue
her
,
in
which
time
,
for
her
sake
,
he
did
many
valiant
deedes
worthy
to
be
put
in
memorie
.
Likewise
the
faire
Polisena
being
no
lesse
ouercome
&
vanquished
with
his
loue
,
did
not
loue
him
with
any
other
entension
but
to
marrie
with
him
,
thinking
that
with
no
other
knight
she
might
better
match
her selfe
then
with
him
,
so
that
these
two
,
were
verie
conformable
together
in
their
wills
and
desires
,
as
I
who
was
a
third
person
betwixt
them
,
do
know
and
am
a
witnesse
to
the
same
,
and
also
doe
iustifie
,
that
betwixt
a
knight
and
a
ladie
,
there
was
neuer
so
perfect
loue
,
as
was
betwixt
these
two
,
or
that
more
intirely
dyd
loue
the
one
the
other
.
And
yet
not
being
satisfied
nor
well
content
with
this
,
but
the
more
to
be
in
securitie
the
one
of
the
other
,
I
was
as
a
meane
betwixt
them
,
that
this
Lusiano
should
come
on
a
night
appointed
vnto
a
window
that
had
a
grate
of
Iron
,
out
of
the
chamber
of
the
saide
dutches
,
whereas
he
should
finde
her
,
&
there
the
one
vnto
the
other
to
assure
the
bands
of
Matrimonie
by
word
and
promise
betwixt
them
,
in
such
sort
,
that
from
that
day
forwards
they
might
liue
in
more
securitie
.
It
fell
out
that
all
was
done
as
it
was
agréed
,
that
this
gentle
Lusiano
in
a
darke
night
came
vnto
the
windo
whereas
he
found
his
faire
Polisena
,
and
betwixt
them
was
concluded
the
bandes
of
Matrimonie
by
word
of
mouth
,
in
my
presence
,
and
in
the
presence
of
an
other
damsell
of
the
Dutches
,
(
who
I
doe
beléeue
is
not
cléere
of
this
treason
that
I
will
tell
you
.
)
This
being
done
,
the
dutches
for
that
she
would
not
that
they
should
be
discouered
or
spyed
,
dyd
desire
the
gentle
Lusiano
that
he
would
straight
waies
depart
,
and
she
likewise
did
withdraw
her selfe
and
caused
the
window
to
be
shoot
:
and
being
verie
feareful
that
it
should
be
discouered
vnto
the
Quéene
,
she
neuer
after
durst
speake
vnto
her
knight
,
neither
be
with
him
in
companie
in
any
suspicious
place
,
as
one
that
was
fully
persuaded
of
the
loue
to
be
perfect
that
was
betweene
them
,
in
this
sort
all
things
dyd
prosper
verie
well
betweene
these
two
louers
,
but
yet
their
loue
was
not
so
perfect
,
as
their
fortune
was
contrarie
;
to
apart
them
from
the
ioye
and
glorie
that
they
hoped
to
be
betwixt
them
.
For
that
(
Sir
knights
)
you
shall
vnderstand
,
that
little
more
then
halfe
a
yéere
past
,
there
came
vnto
the
court
of
the
king
Tiberio
,
the
Duke
of
Saxonia
called
Roberto
the
mightie
,
for
that
he
was
so
bigge
of
his
bodie
,
that
he
lacked
but
a
little
to
be
as
bigge
as
a
gyant
,
and
of
so
great
force
&
strength
,
that
there
was
not
a
knight
to
be
found
,
that
man
for
man
durst
enter
with
him
in
battaile
,
but
alonely
this
gentle
Lusiano
,
who
feared
not
the
bignesse
of
his
bodie
,
neither
his
great
fame
.
At
such
time
as
this
Duke
Roberto
came
vnto
the
court
,
the
king
gaue
him
good
entertainment
,
and
dyd
him
great
honour
,
as
well
for
that
he
was
of
high
estate
,
as
for
the
great
fame
the
which
he
had
.
This
Duke
so
soone
as
he
had
séene
the
faire
Polisena
,
was
so
farre
in
loue
with
her
,
that
straight
waies
he
thought
to
haue
her
vnto
wife
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
straight
waies
he
laboured
all
that
euer
he
could
to
bring
his
determination
to
effect
.
But
she
that
nothing
dyd
more
abhorre
and
hate
,
(
as
well
for
the
loue
which
shée
bare
vnto
Lusiano
)
as
for
the
boysterous
and
brauenesse
of
his
person
,
for
that
he
had
a
fearce
face
,
and
terrible
countenance
,
by
no
meanes
she
could
not
abyde
him
,
but
dyd
refuse
his
offer
,
and
many
times
she
sayde
vnto
him
in
my
presence
,
that
he
should
not
come
any
more
before
her
,
for
that
his
presence
should
be
greuous
vnto
her
,
yet
for
all
that
would
he
not
giue
ouer
his
sute
,
but
still
dyd
contende
to
importune
her
,
in
such
sort
,
that
she
was
determined
for
to
giue
the
King
to
vnderstande
thereof
,
if
that
I
had
not
persuaded
her
to
the
contrarie
.
Then
the
Duke
Roberto
,
seing
that
nothing
whatsoeuer
he
dyd
profited
any
whit
for
the
obtaining
his
purpose
and
desire
,
determined
to
séeke
some
other
meanes
,
how
and
which
way
he
might
make
the
Dutches
for
to
doe
by
force
that
which
now
she
would
not
of
her
good
will
.
I
promise
you
I
know
not
,
neither
can
I
immagine
how
and
which
way
the
diuell
did
helpe
him
,
for
to
cause
three
knights
of
the
court
of
the
king
,
for
to
suffer
themselues
and
be
〈◊〉
,
such
as
were
in
bountie
of
armes
,
as
also
of
good
cr●dit
〈◊〉
their
persons
,
haue
not
their
equalls
to
be
found
in
all
the
land
,
that
I
promise
you
the
king
would
put
them
in
trust
with
all
his
ritches
,
he
and
all
people
had
such
con●iden●e
in
them
.
The
one
is
called
Ricardo
,
and
Duke
of
Barbaria
,
the
other
Anibardo
,
Lord
of
the
Albios
,
and
the
third
,
Carmelio
,
Lord
of
Marehomandia
,
all
thrée
subiects
vnto
the
king
Tiberio
,
and
norished
and
brought
vp
in
his
court
from
the
time
of
their
tender
age
.
Then
Duke
Roberto
hauing
these
knights
on
his
part
,
watched
his
time
,
and
went
before
the
king
at
such
time
as
the
Quéene
was
present
,
and
made
a
great
complaint
vnto
them
saying
,
that
of
long
time
he
loued
with
true
and
perfect
loue
,
the
Dutches
of
Austria
,
and
how
that
by
the
good
will
and
consent
of
them
both
,
they
were
made
sure
together
,
so
that
he
was
her
husband
and
she
his
wife
.
But
now
since
the
conclusion
of
this
matrimonie
,
the
Dutches
doth
denye
it
againe
,
and
hath
sworne
neuer
to
marrie
with
him
,
not
knowing
wherefore
she
should
be
thus
angrie
with
him
,
to
denie
that
which
she
before
hath
promised
,
requesting
him
as
his
king
and
soueraigne
Lord
,
to
doe
him
Iustice
therein
,
and
to
commaund
the
Dutches
to
perfourme
the
matrimonie
the
which
she
promised
vnto
him
,
and
to
deliuer
her
into
his
power
,
for
that
she
was
his
naturall
wife
.
The
king
receiued
no
content
,
but
was
very
sorie
at
this
embassage
of
the
Duke
,
for
that
the
king
hadde
better
good
will
to
marrie
her
vnto
the
gentle
Lusia●o
,
then
vnto
him
,
but
because
he
loued
iustice
,
and
was
a
very
good
Christian
,
he
straight
waies
commaunded
to
come
before
him
the
faire
Polisena
,
and
asked
of
her
if
it
were
true
which
the
Duke
had
said
.
Then
she
who
vnderstood
the
diuelish
intent
of
the
Duke
,
was
so
amazed
,
that
for
a
good
space
she
could
not
speak
a
word
,
(
wherat
the
king
and
the
quéene
had
great
suspicion
)
but
when
that
she
came
vnto
her selfe
,
with
great
anger
she
sayde
vnto
the
Duke
,
that
he
lyed
in
all
that
he
hadde
sayde
,
and
how
that
there
neuer
passed
any
such
thing
by
woord
nor
in
thought
.
At
which
answere
the
Duke
was
very
angrie
&
furious
,
whi●●
was
the
occasion
that
the
king
commanded
the
faire
●olisena
for
●o
depart
,
〈…〉
,
the
Duke
straight
waies
presented
before
the
king
,
the
thrée
knights
before
rehearsed
,
who
swore
in
the
presence
of
the
King
,
that
Duke
Roberto
and
the
faire
Polisena
were
made
sure
together
,
in
so
ample
maner
,
as
man
and
wife
ought
to
be
,
and
how
that
ouer
and
aboue
all
this
,
they
had
bene
together
:
and
that
it
was
of
a
trueth
,
for
that
they
were
present
thereat
,
in
a
garden
that
is
next
adioyning
vnto
the
lodging
of
the
Dutches.
Ah
lamentable
case
and
a
thing
neuer
the
like
before
heard
off
,
that
so
great
falsehood
should
be
found
in
the
mouthes
of
such
thrée
knights
,
whose
credit
is
so
great
with
the
king
,
that
he
doth
beléeue
th●●
more
and
better
then
if
all
the
knights
in
his
court
had
spoken
and
sworne
it
.
And
as
a
thing
verified
to
be
most
true
,
the
King
commaunded
the
Quéene
that
straight
wayes
she
should
deliuer
vnto
the
Duke
the
faire
Polisena
,
for
that
she
had
chosen
him
to
be
her
husband
.
Now
sir
knights
I
pray
you
iudge
what
the
gentle
Lusiano
might
féele
in
his
heart
,
who
found
himself
present
at
all
that
passed
,
and
had
more
con●●dence
in
the
loue
and
loyaltie
of
the
Dutches
,
then
of
the
credit
,
of
those
knights
,
&
with
great
payne
did
suffer
that
reproch
for
that
he
would
not
discouer
the
secret
betwéene
them
.
But
when
that
he
vnderstoode
that
which
the
king
had
commaunded
▪
he
as
then
could
not
suffer
it
any
longer
,
but
put
himselfe
before
the
king
and
said
.
Lord
and
soueraine
,
here
I
doe
saie
that
all
which
the
Duke
Roberto
and
these
knights
hath
saide
against
the
Dutches
of
Austria
is
the
greatest
treason
and
falsehood
that
euer
was
sayde
or
inuented
:
For
that
that
shée
is
my
legittimate
spouse
,
and
she
neuer
gaue
her
faith
neither
her
loue
vnto
any
other
knight
(
in
all
her
life
)
but
vnto
mée
,
and
this
will
I
proue
vpon
the
Duke
,
or
vpon
any
of
these
thrée
knights
.
This
Prince
had
●●arce
concluded
these
words
,
when
that
the
Duke
and
these
thrée
knights
,
layde
hand
vpon
their
swords
against
him
,
and
he
dyd
the
like
against
them
,
so
that
there
had
bene
done
great
harme
,
if
that
the
king
had
not
put
himselfe
betwixt
them
,
and
parted
them●
&
commaunded
that
either
of
them
should
kéepe
his
house
and
not
to
come
abrode
.
Then
the
king
being
verie
desirous
to
knowe
whether
it
were
true
or
not
,
which
the
Prince
Lusiano
had
said
,
commaunded
that
the
Dutches
should
be
brought
before
him
,
and
asked
her
if
that
the
Prince
Lusiano
were
her
husband
or
not
?
Then
she
séeing
that
it
was
not
at
that
time
to
kéepe
it
in
silence
,
sayde
that
it
was
true
,
that
he
was
her
spouse
and
none
other
.
When
the
king
vnderstoode
that
,
he
commaunded
that
the
Dutchesse
should
bée
put
prisoner
in
a
strong
tower
,
beléeuing
verilie
that
shée
had
made
her selfe
sure
and
giuen
her
word
vnto
both
of
them
,
and
the
great
good
will
which
shée
bare
vnto
Lusiano
,
was
the
occasion
that
shee
did
falsifie
and
denie
that
which
shée
had
promised
vnto
the
Duke
Rober●o
,
and
for
that
hee
would
cléere
this
doubt
by
iustice
,
he
gaue
straight
waies
sentence
,
that
the
Duke
and
the
thrée
knightes
that
were
his
witnesses
should
maintaine
and
defend
that
which
they
had
spoken
and
sworne
,
and
that
Lusiano
and
the
Dutchesse
should
in
the
space
of
one
moneth
bring
knightes
,
such
that
vpon
their
iust
quarrell
shoulde
take
and
make
combat
with
them
,
in
this
sorte
,
that
if
those
which
are
of
the
Dukes
partie
doe
get
the
victorie
,
that
then
the
Dutchesse
should
bée
his
,
and
straight
waies
to
bee
deliuered
vnto
him
,
and
to
the
contrarie
,
if
the
Prince
and
●is
knightes
doe
get
the
victorie
,
that
then
the
beautifull
and
faire
Polisena
should
be
his
,
the
which
sentence
being
declared
vnto
them
,
they
were
all
consent
therewith
,
for
that
the
Duke
thought
that
in
all
the
whole
world
there
were
not
to
be
found
foure
knights
,
that
against
him
and
his
companions
were
able
to
wage
battaile
.
And
Lusiano
hoping
in
his
iustice
as
much
as
in
his
strength
,
presupposed
the
victorie
to
be
on
his
part
,
but
alasse
Fortune
hath
fallen
out
cleane
contrarie
vnto
his
expectation
,
for
that
this
is
the
last
daie
of
the
moneth
,
and
in
all
this
time
he
could
neuer
finde
anie
knight
that
durst
take
his
part
in
the
battaile
,
one
waie
,
for
that
the
other
foure
knightes
were
commended
to
bée
so
strong
and
valiant
,
and
féared
of
all
others
,
and
other
waies
,
for
that
they
thought
of
a
truth
,
that
the
Duke
Roberto
had
reason
,
for
that
it
was
verified
and
affirmed
by
thrée
knights
of
so
great
credit
,
so
that
now
the
Prince
séeing
himselfe
al
alone
,
is
determined
all
alone
to
goe
forth
vnto
th●
battaile
this
daie
against
those
foure
knights
,
for
that
first
he
wil
suffer
himselfe
to
be
slaine
,
rather
than
to
sée
the
faire
Polisena
deliuered
into
the
power
of
the
Duke
,
so
that
this
euening
the
battaile
shall
be
tried
,
the
which
cannot
otherwise
bée
,
but
that
the
gentle
Lusiano
must
be
slaine
,
whose
death
vnto
all
people
will
be
verie
grieuous
,
and
he
shall
not
bée
so
soone
slaine
,
when
that
the
Dutchesse
will
kill
her selfe
with
her
owne
hands
,
for
so
she
is
determined
to
doe
,
if
that
in
the
meane
time
God
doth
not
ordaine
some
remedie
for
the
same
.
This
is
the
occasion
(
gentle
knights
)
of
all
this
my
great
sorow
,
which
causeth
me
to
come
forth
into
these
fields
and
high
waies
,
making
my
cries
vnto
the
heauens
,
and
because
I
doo
know
the
truth
héereof
better
than
anie
other
,
I
cannot
suffer
to
abide
in
the
Citie
,
to
sée
before
my
eies
slain
such
two
persons
by
a
treason
so
manifest
&
euill
,
but
come
to
sée
if
that
in
this
short
space
I
could
méete
with
anie
knight
that
wold
haue
compassion
on
them
,
and
now
séeing
God
hath
permitted
that
I
haue
met
with
two
such
knights
as
you
doe
séeme
to
bée
,
héere
I
doe
desire
you
by
the
great
obligation
in
the
which
you
bound
your selues
at
such
time
as
you
receiued
the
order
of
knighthood
,
that
you
would
take
compassion
of
that
gentle
knight
Lusiano
,
and
of
that
sorrowfull
and
afflicted
Ladie
the
Dutches
,
&
if
it
so
fall
out
,
that
you
shew
them
anie
curtesie
,
they
be
persons
that
will
verie
well
gratifie
the
same
,
and
because
you
shall
be
fullie
certefied
of
their
iustice
,
héere
I
doe
sweare
vnto
you
by
that
God
that
created
and
made
both
heauen
and
earth
,
and
afterwards
by
his
death
and
passion
dyd
redéeme
vs
,
that
all
this
which
I
haue
told
you
is
the
verie
truth
of
all
that
hath
passed
,
and
againe
,
the
more
to
certefie
you
héerein
,
you
haue
néed
of
no
other
thing
,
but
to
beholde
the
ill
fauoured
face
and
barbarous
countenance
of
the
Duke
,
and
the
g●eat
beutie
of
Polisena
,
whereby
you
may
iudge
the
great
vnlikelihood
,
that
the
dutches
should
treate
of
loue
with
him
in
secret
.
When
the
damsell
had
concluded
the
whole
discourse
of
this
treason
,
the
two
knightes
who
were
replenished
with
all
vertue
,
were
moued
vnto
great
compassion
,
and
gaue
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
that
he
had
brought
them
thether
at
that
instant
,
and
thought
it
long
till
they
saw
themselues
in
battaile
with
the
Duke
,
and
said
vnto
the
damsel
that
they
would
goe
with
her
,
and
take
〈◊〉
with
Lusiano
for
to
defend
his
right
towards
the
Dutches.
And
shée
who
verie
well
noted
their
gentle
dispositions
,
and
the
great
riches
of
their
armor
,
by
the
which
she
was
fullie
perswaded
with
her selfe
that
they
were
knights
of
great
estimation
,
&
that
her
trauaile
and
comming
thether
was
well
emploied
,
for
that
there
was
some
hope
by
their
aide
,
on
the
parte
of
Lusiano
,
much
better
than
to
battaile
alone
,
for
the
which
she
asked
their
hands
for
to
kisse
them
,
for
the
great
curtesie
they
offered
vnto
her
,
and
therewith
she
returned
with
them
towards
the
Citie
againe
,
and
sayd
.
Oh
that
it
were
Gods
will
(
Sir
Knightes
)
that
my
fortune
might
be
this
daie
so
happie
and
prosperous
,
as
it
was
vnto
another
damsell
in
times
past
,
who
brought
vnto
this
Court
a
strange
knight
,
for
to
defend
an
honourable
Ladie
from
the
power
of
the
stout
Aridon
,
who
alonelie
dyd
not
kill
him
in
battaile
,
but
afterwards
had
so
much
power
and
force
for
to
defend
himselfe
from
all
the
power
and
force
of
the
King
〈◊〉
,
maintaining
battaile
a
great
part
of
the
daie
with
more
than
two
thousand
knightes
,
till
such
time
as
night
drew
on
,
and
they
all
thought
it
best
to
leaue
him
,
so
that
he
went
free
awaie
,
and
none
of
them
all
able
to
hurt
or
doe
him
anie
outrage
,
who
afterward
was
tolde
vs
to
bée
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
and
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
●rebatio
and
of
the
Empresse
Briana
,
daughter
vnto
my
Lord
the
king
T●berio
,
and
if
it
were
not
for
the
greate
warres
,
as
is
tolde
vs
,
that
doth
detaine
him
,
and
also
for
the
great
〈◊〉
that
the
king
hath
against
him
,
the
Dutchesse
would
haue
sent
vnto
him
in
commending
her
whole
cause
,
in
hope
that
hée
woulde
haue
had
some
compassion
on
her
.
All
this
time
Rosicleer
,
and
Lyriamandro
did
greatlie
reioyce
to
heare
tolde
the
wonderfull
acts
and
déedes
of
the
knight
of
the
Sun
,
for
wheresoeuer
they
went
,
they
found
all
the
world
full
of
his
great
fame
.
Thus
in
trauailing
,
they
talked
of
these
and
many
other
things
,
till
at
thrée
of
the
clocke
in
the
after
noone
they
entered
into
the
mightie
Citie
of
Viana
,
at
such
time
as
the
great
place
was
full
of
people
,
tarrying
for
to
sée
the
battaile
that
should
bee
made
betwixt
the
Prince
Lusiano
and
Duke
Roberto
.
Then
they
put
themselues
into
such
a
place
whereas
they
were
verie
secret
,
and
commanded
the
damsell
to
goe
forth
at
such
time
as
the
Duke
and
his
knightes
were
in
the
place
,
that
then
she
should
come
and
tell
them
,
for
that
they
woulde
not
bée
séene
till
such
time
as
they
were
in
the
field
,
and
for
that
in
this
next
Chapter
you
shall
vnderstand
the
whole
truth
of
all
that
which
passed
,
I
doe
conclude
this
and
referre
mée
to
the
next
.
Of
the
great
treason
that
the
Duke
Roberto
ordained
,
for
to
haue
the
faire
Polisena
to
bee
his
wife
.
Chap.
44.
NOw
the
Hystorie
faith
,
that
all
that
which
the
damsell
had
told
vnto
Rosicleer
and
Liriamandro
was
most
certaine
true
,
but
yet
there
was
another
secret
vnknownen
,
and
knowen
vnto
none
but
vnto
the
Duke
,
and
another
damsell
of
the
Dutchesse
,
which
was
this
,
insomuch
as
the
Duke
Roberto
had
lost
all
his
hope
for
to
haue
at
his
wil
the
faire
Dutchesse
Polisena
,
he
determined
within
himselfe
to
vse
some
other
meanes
,
which
was
the
worst
that
euer
was
procured
or
done
by
anie
knight
,
for
when
hée
sawe
nothing
could
preuaile
him
,
he
then
laboured
with
all
diligence
,
for
to
know
which
of
the
damsels
that
waighted
vpon
the
dutches
,
was
the
basest
of
linage
&
poorest
,
for
that
these
two
things
in
inconstant
minds
be
easiest
to
accomplish
their
lusts
and
desires
.
And
when
he
had
learned
out
this
,
and
found
that
there
was
one
(
amongest
them
that
serued
the
Dutchesse
)
which
had
these
qualities
(
or
better
to
saie
inconueniences
)
he
did
secretlie
practise
to
talk
with
her
,
the
which
being
done
,
what
with
requests
,
&
gifts
,
and
faire
promises
,
in
the
end
he
brought
her
vnto
the
bent
of
his
bow
,
and
hauing
her
at
his
commandement
,
&
as
he
would
wish
,
vpon
a
night
,
at
such
time
as
the
Moone
did
shine
most
cléerest
,
hée
practised
with
her
,
that
she
should
apparell
her selfe
with
the
same
apparell
&
attire
of
her
head
,
that
the
Dutches
her
Ladie
did
weare
the
daie
before
,
&
being
so
attired
shée
shoulde
come
forth
into
a
gallant
fresh
garden
,
which
was
vnder
the
window
of
the
Dutches
,
whereas
many
times
shée
would
recreate
her selfe
with
her
damsells
,
and
could
not
bee
seene
of
anie
,
by
reason
that
the
wals
were
so
high
,
&
being
there
,
she
should
present
her selfe
to
be
the
faire
Polisena
,
and
hee
would
méete
with
her
in
the
sayd
garden
,
whereas
betwixt
them
they
would
plight
their
faith
&
troth
of
matrimonie
,
&
how
that
he
would
take
her
into
his
armes
,
as
though
she
were
his
spouse
and
lawfull
wife
.
When
this
and
all
the
rest
which
the
Duke
requested
was
concluded
with
that
damsell
,
he
then
began
to
increase
the
friendship
which
before
he
had
begun
,
with
those
thrée
knigh●s
,
Ricardo
,
Carmelio
,
&
Ambardo
,
who
were
thrée
of
the
principallest
knights
&
of
most
credit
that
were
in
all
the
Court
,
vnto
whom
many
times
before
(
because
he
would
haue
their
friendshippes
more
surer
)
he
did
impart
the
secret
&
great
loue
which
hée
ha●
with
the
Dutches
,
&
did
not
onelie
declare
vnto
them
the
sharpe
answeres
which
she
gaue
him
,
but
rather
sayd
,
that
he
was
verie
well
beloued
of
her
,
and
how
that
she
had
promised
him
many
times
to
receiue
him
for
her
husband
,
although
shée
dyd
delaie
the
time
from
one
night
vnto
an
other
.
Then
after
a
while
when
that
they
were
partlie
perswaded
of
the
truth
,
the
daie
before
the
night
that
he
had
con●orted
with
the
Damsell
to
come
forth
into
the
garden
,
hée
went
vnto
these
three
knights
,
and
in
great
secret
he
sayde
vnto
them
these
wordes
.
It
is
not
vnknowen
vnto
you
my
Lordes
,
how
long
time
I
haue
trauailed
with
sorrow
for
to
conclude
this
loue
that
I
haue
alwayes
had
with
the
Dutchesse
,
&
to
no
other
intent
and
purpose
but
to
marrie
with
her
,
and
to
haue
her
in
that
honour
as
her
high
estate
and
great
worthinesse
doth
deserue
,
shée
hath
driu●n
mée
off
from
daie
to
daie
,
dilating
the
time
,
and
hindering
mée
of
that
great
glorie
and
contentment
,
the
which
I
hoped
long
ere
this
to
haue
inioyed
,
as
you
doe
verie
well
knowe
,
but
now
by
the
good
successe
that
alwayes
I
hoped
for
of
this
my
Matrimonie
,
it
hath
pleased
God
,
that
the
Dutchesse
hath
now
conserted
with
mée
,
that
this
next
night
that
commeth
,
she
will
come
forth
into
a
garden
that
is
on
the
backe
side
of
her
lodging
,
where
as
she
willeth
me
to
méete
her
,
and
there
she
wil
accomplish
all
that
I
haue
desired
,
and
for
that
I
doe
know
and
haue
proued
by
experience
the
inconstancie
and
varietie
of
womens
heartes
,
I
am
verie
desirous
that
you
(
my
Lordes
)
would
shew
me
so
much
pleasure
,
as
to
go
with
me
thether
,
and
to
be
in
secret
there
whereas
you
may
heare
and
sée
all
that
passeth
,
because
if
it
shoulde
so
fall
out
by
my
euill
fortune
,
that
the
Dutchesse
of
Austria
for
feare
of
displeasing
the
king
or
Quéene
,
or
by
anie
other
occasion
that
shuld
moue
her
now
:
pretended
purpose
,
shall
denie
and
flie
from
this
her
promise
,
that
then
you
(
if
occasion
did
so
serue
)
as
witnesses
of
that
ye
sawe
,
may
declare
the
truth
of
all
that
which
you
haue
séene
and
heard
.
And
againe
,
I
being
in
my
glorie
with
the
Dutches
in
the
garden
,
should
chance
to
bée
discouered
and
bewraied
,
to
haue
your
helpe
and
succour
,
as
of
my
verie
perfect
and
good
friends
.
When
the
Duke
had
concluded
this
his
fained
protestation
,
the
thrée
knightes
who
were
so
much
his
friendes
,
dyd
promise
vnto
him
for
to
accomplish
all
his
request
.
Then
when
the
night
was
come
,
about
twelue
of
the
clock
at
midnight
,
at
such
time
as
the
Dutchesse
and
all
the
rest
were
in
their
found
sléepe
,
the
Duke
with
the
thrée
knights
went
vnto
the
garden
,
and
although
the
walls
were
verie
high
,
yet
by
Ladders
they
went
vp
to
the
top
thereof
,
the
wall
was
somewhat
broade
aboue
,
and
on
the
inside
towards
the
garden
,
hard
vnto
the
wall
dyd
growe
a
great
number
of
thick●
and
high
Cypres
trées
,
which
shadowed
all
the
wall
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
thrée
knightes
might
remaine
vppon
the
wall
,
and
heare
and
sée
all
that
should
passe
in
the
garden
,
and
they
not
to
be
séene
and
discouered
of
anie
.
In
that
place
did
the
three
knightes
remaine
,
and
the
Duke
descended
downe
by
those
trées
into
the
garden
,
whereas
he
remained
till
within
a
little
while
after
he
heard
a
little
pos●erne
to
be
opened
,
whereat
came
forth
that
false
damsell
,
who
by
reason
that
the
Moone
did
shine
so
bright
,
yea
nigh
hand
shée
did
seeme
to
bée
the
Dutchesse
,
for
that
shee
was
faire
,
and
of
her
owne
stature
,
and
was
apparelled
with
a
gowne
of
gréene
veluet
,
set
full
of
brouches
of
golde
,
wherein
was
set
many
fine
presious
stones
,
shée
also
had
her
haire
hanging
about
her
shoulders
,
which
reached
downe
to
the
ground
,
and
vpon
her
head
a
garland
set
full
of
Diamonds
and
rubies
of
great
price
,
with
the
which
garment
and
garland
the
thrée
knightes
dyd
sée
the
Dutchesse
the
daie
before
,
in
certaine
bankets
and
feasts
that
were
made
,
and
by
reason
that
it
was
night
,
although
the
Moone
did
shine
verie
cléere
,
yet
because
shee
was
somewhat
a
farre
of
,
they
coulde
not
discerne
anie
other
but
that
she
was
the
Dutchesse
.
Likewise
shee
had
in
her
hand
a
bunch
of
feathers
,
wherewith
this
Damsell
did
dissemble
and
hide
her
face
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
shée
could
not
bee
knowen
.
Then
so
soone
as
the
Duke
had
spied
her
to
come
forth
,
he
straight
wayes
went
&
knéeled
downe
before
her
,
and
sayd
.
Oh
my
Ladie
Polisena
,
what
Prince
or
knight
in
all
the
worlde
,
was
euer
worthie
to
receiue
so
great
curtesie
and
fauour
as
this
is
?
Giue
mée
these
your
faire
and
white
handes
,
that
I
may
kisse
them
,
as
one
vnworthie
to
receiue
so
great
honour
and
glorie
,
and
yet
I
cannot
thinke
but
that
it
is
a
dreame
.
My
Lord
(
sayde
the
Damsell
)
giue
thanks
vnto
almightie
God
,
who
hath
done
so
much
for
you
,
that
you
do
deserue
this
at
my
hands
,
the
which
I
haue
done
for
your
sake
,
arise
vp
from
the
ground
,
for
that
your
state
〈…〉
courtesie
vento
any
damsell
,
in
all
the
the
whole
world
,
much
lesse
vnto
the
Dutches
of
Austria
,
who
is
altogether
yours
,
and
in
saying
these
wordes
,
she
tooke
him
by
the
hand
and
caused
him
to
arise
from
the
ground
,
and
the
Duke
straight
waies
began
to
embrace
and
kisse
her
,
and
tooke
their
way●
towards
a
fresh
fountaine
there
at
hand
,
compassed
rounde
about
with
Iasmires
and
Muske
Roses
.
And
before
that
they
could
come
thether
,
the
Damsell
sayde
.
My
Lord
,
you
doe
well
know
,
that
I
doe
not
come
hether
for
any
other
thing
,
but
to
plight
vnto
you
my
faith
and
troth
,
to
be
your
wyfe
,
and
you
my
husband
and
spouse
,
and
that
to
the
contrarie
,
I
would
not
come
for
all
the
world
into
this
place
,
so
much
against
my
honour
.
My
desire
is
,
that
this
should
bée
done
out
of
hand
,
and
that
we
might
depart
,
for
that
I
feare
to
be
discouered
.
My
good
Ladie
&
Dutches
(
sayd
the
Duke
)
this
is
that
the
which
I
so
long
haue
looked
and
hoped
for
.
And
now
séeing
that
we
are
both
agréed
,
and
conformable
in
our
good
wills
,
now
I
doe
saye
that
I
doe
receiue
my
Ladie
the
Dutches
Polisena
,
for
my
welbeloued
spouse
and
wife
,
and
that
I
doe
renounce
all
other
and
cleaue
my selfe
onely
vnto
her
,
so
long
as
we
shall
liue
.
Well
then
my
good
Lord
,
sayd
the
Damsell
:
Héere
your
true
and
faithfull
Polisena
,
doe
receiue
and
take
Roberto
Duke
of
Saxonia
,
for
her
spouse
,
and
will
that
no
other
shal
be
her
husband
,
but
you
alone
.
All
this
that
passed
betwixt
them
,
was
very
well
heard
by
the
thrée
knightes
that
were
in
secret
:
and
surely
they
were
out
of
all
doubt
to
the
contrarie
,
but
that
should
be
the
Dutches
of
Austria
.
For
if
they
had
knowen
otherwise
,
or
had
any
other
thing
in
their
thoughts
,
they
were
such
knights
,
that
they
would
not
haue
affirmed
that
which
they
had
sayd
for
all
the
kingedome
of
Hungaria
.
When
that
this
communicacion
of
matrimonie
was
concluded
betwixt
them
two
,
the
Duke
went
with
the
Damsell
towardes
the
Fountaine
,
and
at
their
co●ming
thether
she
making
the
matter
somewhat
strange
,
so
that
it
might
be
heard
by
the
thrée
knights
,
although
they
could
not
sée
any
thing
,
by
reason
of
the
thicknesse
of
the
trées
whereas
they
were
,
there
the
Duke
did
accomplish
his
wil
with
the
Damsell
.
And
when
it
was
houre
and
time
for
to
withdraw
themselues
,
they
went
hand
in
hand
together
vnto
the
posterne
where
she
came
forth
,
and
there
the
duke
with
many
imbracings
and
kissings
,
did
take
his
leaue
of
her
,
and
she
entred
in
,
and
went
to
sléepe
,
leauing
the
apparaile
of
the
Dutches
in
the
place
whereas
she
tooke
them
,
and
was
not
séene
by
any
:
And
the
Duke
retourned
vnto
the
thrée
knights
,
and
departed
from
thence
.
It
fell
out
within
a
while
after
happened
all
that
this
Historie
hath
declared
vnto
you
,
the
which
fell
out
to
be
vnto
the
Prince
Lusiano
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
for
that
hée
dyd
loue
the
Dutches
so
entirely
,
and
was
so
fully
certified
of
the
good
will
&
loue
she
bare
vnto
him
,
that
it
brought
him
into
a
great
alteration
of
minde
,
and
almost
from
him selfe
,
to
sée
the
witnesse
that
was
brought
against
the
Dutches
,
by
those
thrée
knights
,
whome
he
had
in
estimation
to
be
loyall
,
faithfull
,
and
of
great
credit
:
and
beleeued
verely
that
they
would
not
but
tell
the
trueth
,
in
that
behalfe
,
if
that
to
either
of
them
should
be
giuen
a
whole
kingdome
.
And
to
the
contrarie
,
he
had
so
great
a
confidence
in
his
ladie
and
mistresse
,
that
he
was
fully
determined
first
●o
bée
s●aine
,
then
to
consent
,
that
any
such
shame
should
be
offered
vnto
her
.
But
his
great
bountie
did
little
profit
,
for
to
deliuer
him
from
the
death
,
for
that
euerie
one
of
the
foure
,
were
so
strong
and
valiant
knights
,
that
in
all
Hungaria
was
not
to
be
found
one
that
could
match
any
of
them
.
But
yet
for
that
aboue
al
things
Iustice
is
of
greater
force
,
God
dyd
permit
,
for
that
Lusiano
had
Iustice
on
his
part
,
that
he
should
be
succoured
in
this
his
great
extremttie
:
as
shal
be
told
you
in
this
Chapter
following
.
How
that
Rosicleer
and
Liriamandro
,
and
the
gentle
Lus●ano
,
had
battaile
with
the
Duke
Robert●
and
his
companions
.
Chap.
45.
AFter
that
the
Damsel
of
the
Dutches
was
departed
from
Rosicleer
and
Liriamandro
,
she
went
straight
waies
into
the
place
appointed
for
the
battaile
whereas
she
kept
her selfe
verie
close
,
till
such
time
as
the
Duke
and
his
companions
came
foorth
all
foure
together
,
and
armed
with
rich
and
glittering
armor
,
mounted
vpon
a
great
and
gallant
horse
,
&
had
with
them
so
gallant
semblance
,
that
they
semed
to
be
knights
of
great
valour
&
worthinesse
,
as
well
in
their
armour
,
as
in
their
gallant
proporcion
.
In
this
●ort
they
ridde
about
the
place
,
and
when
that
the
king
Tiberio
and
the
Quéene
Augusta
with
all
the
principallest
of
the
court
were
set
in
their
places
at
the
windowes
of
the
mightie
pallace
,
then
straight
waies
came
farther
the
gentle
Lusiano
,
all
armed
in
blew
armour
,
garnished
about
with
golde
and
rich
stoones
,
which
was
conformable
vnto
his
estate
,
and
was
mounted
vpon
a
mightie
horse
trapped
with
blewe
veluet
and
bordered
with
gold
,
and
was
in
all
things
of
so
gallant
and
gentle
disposition
,
that
ther
was
not
one
in
all
the
place
,
but
when
they
saw
him
,
did
receue
great
sorrow
and
griefe
,
in
such
sorte
,
that
there
was
amongst
them
a
great
sound
in
maner
of
a
lamentation
,
for
that
they
made
rekoning
that
he
was
a
dead
man
,
and
there
were
fewe
amongst
them
but
would
haue
giuen
a
good
part
of
their
goods
,
vpon
condicion
that
the
gentle
Lusiano
might
cleere
himselfe
of
that
enterprise
,
in
especial
the
king
and
the
Queene
,
who
loued
him
almost
as
well
as
though
he
had
bene
their
owne
sonne
,
and
would
haue
bene
verie
glad
if
that
the
prince
〈◊〉
would
giue
ouer
that
demaund
,
for
that
they
beleued
that
the
Duke
Roberto
had
reason
on
his
side
,
and
again
(
as
it
was
likely
)
they
thought
it
impossible
that
he
should
escape
from
that
battaile
with
his
life
.
Then
the
king
commaunded
that
the
Dutches
should
be
brought
foorth
for
to
see
and
behold
the
battaile
that
was
ordained
for
her
sake
,
who
very
much
against
her
will
,
was
brought
vnto
a
window
of
the
pallas
:
but
when
she
saw
her
gentle
spouse
,
her
heart
was
all
couered
with
sorrow
and
griefe
,
and
as
dead
she
fell
down
to
the
ground
,
whereas
her
life
had
bene
in
great
perill
,
if
that
within
a
short
space
she
had
not
bene
comforted
with
the
comming
of
the
two
knights
.
So
soone
as
the
damsell
saw
that
it
was
houre
&
time
,
with
a
trice
she
went
vnto
the
In
whereas
she
had
left
Rosicleere
and
Liriamandro
,
and
giuing
them
to
vnderstand
of
that
which
had
passed
,
and
how
that
they
were
readie
to
goe
to
battaile
.
They
straight
waies
mounted
vpon
their
horses
,
and
with
all
the
spéede
possible
,
came
vnto
the
place
,
at
such
time
as
the
Iudges
did
part
the
Sunne
and
the
field
vnto
the
knight
,
readie
to
leaue
them
to
their
battaile
.
And
as
they
pressed
to
enter
into
the
place
,
all
the
people
dyd
make
them
large
and
broade
way
,
for
to
passe
,
as
well
to
cleere
themselues
from
the
furie
of
their
great
hast
,
as
also
for
that
they
sawe
them
to
be
armed
with
so
precious
and
rich
armour
,
and
of
so
gallant
proporcion
,
that
straight
waies
they
thought
they
came
vpon
some
set
purpose
and
determination
.
When
they
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
knights
were
,
without
speaking
euer
a
woord
,
they
plased
themselues
the
one
on
the
one
side
,
and
the
other
on
the
other
side
of
the
Prince
,
with
their
speares
in
their
hands
,
readie
for
to
goe
vnto
the
battaile
.
Then
the
Damsel
who
was
well
knowne
went
vnto
the
king
and
saide
:
You
shall
vnderstand
worthy
and
mightie
king
T●berio
,
that
I
this
daye
going
forth
of
this
citie
,
because
I
would
not
see
the
death
of
the
pri●ce
Lusiano
,
by
my
good
fortune
I
met
with
these
two
knights
,
who
when
as
they
vnderstood
by
mée
,
the
occasion
of
my
sorow
and
griefe
,
hauing
no
other
occasion
,
but
as
they
are
bound
by
reason
and
Iustice
,
are
come
hether
with
mée
,
and
will
defend
the
cause
on
the
part
and
behalfe
of
my
Ladie
the
Dutches.
Therefore
on
their
parts
I
am
come
vnto
your
highnesse
,
to
request
you
to
graunt
them
licence
for
the
same
,
for
so
much
as
they
be
strangers
,
and
would
not
erre
in
any
thing
that
is
dewtifull
vnto
your
seruice
.
The
king
,
who
all
this
time
dyd
verie
well
behold
the
two
knights
,
and
lyked
them
meruailously
well
,
was
very
glad
and
ioyefull
at
the
words
of
the
Damsell
,
and
hauing
some
hope
(
more
then
before
)
of
the
deliuerie
of
the
Prince
,
by
the
ayde
of
those
two
knights
,
aunswered
and
sayde
,
that
the
Duke
and
his
companions
were
foure
,
so
that
Lusiano
might
likewise
take
vnto
him
other
thrée
companions
,
and
that
there
was
no
reason
in
him
for
to
denie
them
,
therefore
the
knights
might
doe
what
their
pleasure
was
,
and
that
he
should
be
well
content
therewith
.
The
Duke
and
his
companions
when
that
they
sawe
how
that
Lusiano
had
companions
,
made
no
rekoning
theroff
,
for
that
if
they
were
tenne
of
them
,
they
hoped
before
an
houre
were
ended
,
they
would
bring
them
vnto
their
endes
.
But
the
Prince
when
that
he
sawe
himselfe
in
the
middest
betwixt
two
such
knights
,
receiued
no
small
contentment
,
for
that
they
séemed
to
be
of
high
estate
&
great
renowme
,
as
well
in
their
rich
armour
,
as
of
their
gallant
and
stoute
proporcions
.
But
in
especiall
Rosicleer
,
for
that
there
was
not
a
knight
in
all
that
place
,
but
he
had
foure
fingers
vauntage
of
him
in
height
,
so
that
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
in
all
his
life
he
had
not
séene
a
knight
of
a
gallanter
disposition
.
And
hauing
no
time
for
to
speak
vnto
them
,
he
bowed
downe
his
head
,
in
token
of
humilitie
,
giuing
them
thankes
for
the
great
courtesie
which
they
shewed
vnto
him
.
At
this
time
the
houre
was
come
,
and
the
trumpets
began
to
sownde
,
making
a
great
noyse
,
whereat
the
Duke
&
his
companions
,
with
their
speares
in
their
hands
,
set
spurs
vnto
their
horses
,
running
with
al
furie
possible
.
The
other
thrée
knights
s●acked
no
time
,
to
runne
and
receiue
them
,
so
great
furie
,
that
it
séemed
a
whirle
winde
,
and
made
their
encounters
the
one
against
the
other
in
this
sort
.
The
Duke
Roberto
and
the
gentle
Lusiano
made
their
encounters
together
all
alone
,
in
such
●ort
,
that
by
reason
they
were
both
●rong
and
valiant
knights
,
they
brake
and
sheuered
their
sp●ares
all
to
péeces
,
but
iustling
together
with
their
horse
and
bodies
they
both
fell
downe
vnto
the
ground
,
who
with
great
lightnesse
arose
vpon
their
feete
,
an●
as
mortall
enimies
,
made
battaile
together
with
their
swords
,
Liriamandro
made
his
encounter
with
Ricardo
,
who
was
a
gallant
knight
.
And
now
whether
it
was
for
that
he
was
in
presence
of
his
parents
,
or
by
his
great
bountie
and
worthinesse
,
Liriamandro
ouerthrew
the
stout
Ricardo
,
horse
and
man
to
the
ground
.
And
although
by
the
force
thereof
he
lost
his
stirrups
,
yet
lyke
a
good
knight
he
passed
forwards
and
kept
his
saddle
:
and
for
that
he
séemed
to
haue
the
vauntage
on
his
aduersarie
,
he
dyd
alight
from
his
hose
,
&
made
his
battaile
on
foote
.
Then
against
Rosicleer
(
for
that
he
seemed
to
be
the
biggest
and
most
valiantest
of
them
all
)
he
was
encountred
by
the
two
most
valiantest
and
stoutest
knight
of
the
foure
,
who
was
Carmelio
,
Lord
of
the
Alb●●●
,
and
Anibard
Lord
of
Marchomandia
.
And
for
that
neuer
at
any
time
before
they
met
with
their
equalls
,
they
thought
verely
at
that
encounter
,
to
lessen
the
number
of
their
aduersaries
,
by
one
.
But
it
fell
out
vnto
them
contrarie
,
for
that
〈◊〉
of
them
brake
their
speares
vppon
Ro●●cleere
,
without
mouing
him
any
thing
in
his
saddle
,
but
he
made
his
encounter
vpon
the
stout
Carmeli●
,
in
such
sort
,
that
thrusting
him
out
of
his
saddle
,
he
bare
him
to
the
ground
ouer
his
hor●e
crouper
,
and
he
had
enough
to
doe
afterwards
to
arise
againe
he
was
so
tormented
with
the
fall
.
The
king
was
wonderfully
amazed
,
and
all
those
that
dyd
beh●lde
〈◊〉
to
see
those
gallant
encounters
betwixt
them
,
and
could
not
〈◊〉
that
the
〈◊〉
of
Lusiano
were
of
so
great
force
and
strength
,
that
so
lightly
had
ouerthrowen
their
aduersaries
,
and
from
that
time
forwardes
had
a
better
hope
of
the
victorie
.
Then
the
Dutches
who
was
as
one
halfe
dead
,
being
comforted
with
those
newes
,
with
a
better
good
will
then
before
,
put
her selfe
at
the
window
for
to
behold
the
battaile
.
Then
the
worthie
Rosilceere
finishing
the
furie
of
his
swift
course
,
with
great
lightnesse
,
he
tourned
his
horse
about
,
&
retourned
vpon
Ambardo
,
who
remained
on
horsebacke
,
and
stroke
at
him
such
a
blow
with
his
sword
,
that
the
shylde
he
lift
vp
for
to
ward
the
furie
thereof
(
although
it
was
of
fine
and
hard
stéele
)
hée
cloue
it
in
two
péeces
,
and
from
thence
descended
vpon
his
helme
with
so
great
furie
,
that
it
made
him
to
stoope
with
his
head
,
declyning
it
to
his
horse
necke
.
And
this
stout
Ambardo
,
when
that
he
felt
him selfe
ouercharged
with
that
mightie
blow
,
being
greatly
amazed
,
he
said
within
himselfe
,
what
is
this
,
mée
thinketh
I
féele
all
the
furie
of
the
world
against
mée
,
is
this
by
fortune
the
sonne
of
Trebatio
,
that
passed
this
way
when
he
slewe
Aridon
,
or
else
is
that
strong
Achilles
,
sonne
vnto
Peleo
,
risen
againe
from
death
to
life
,
or
that
first
begotten
of
Priamus
:
for
according
as
I
doe
féele
the
great
force
of
this
knight
,
it
is
not
possible
,
but
he
must
néedes
be
one
of
them
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
,
for
that
he
was
a
valiant
and
couragious
knight
,
with
all
the
furie
of
his
armes
he
stroke
such
a
blow
at
Rosicleere
vpon
the
head
,
that
he
gaue
him
well
to
vnderstand
that
he
was
a
verie
valiant
and
chosen
knight
.
All
this
time
Liriamandro
and
Ricardo
combatted
together
,
in
such
sort
,
that
the
battaile
was
worth
the
beholding
,
they
were
both
stout
and
valiant
knights
,
and
charged
the
one
the
other
with
so
great
power
&
strength
,
that
it
made
them
all
to
meruaile
.
But
he
that
was
most
oppressed
and
had
greatest
trauaile
in
this
battaile
was
the
prince
Lu●iano
,
for
that
being
in
battaile
with
the
Duke
,
came
also
against
him
the
stout
Carmelio
,
and
although
he
was
of
great
bountie
,
yet
had
he
enough
to
doe
for
to
cleere
himselfe
from
either
of
them
:
and
he
had
passed
great
euell
betwixt
them
two
,
if
that
at
this
instant
had
not
chaunsed
that
the
worthie
Rosicleer
being
in
battaile
with
Anibardo
,
séeing
himselfe
before
his
graundfather
,
his
courage
so
increased
in
him
,
that
with
the
furie
of
all
his
force
,
he
stroke
so
mightie
strong
and
furious
a
blow
vpon
his
helme
,
that
he
had
clouen
him
downe
vnto
the
wast
,
if
that
his
helme
had
not
bene
the
finer
,
and
forged
by
art
magicke
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
his
fine
cutting
sworde
could
not
enter
nor
cut
it
,
but
yet
by
the
great
force
of
the
valiant
Anibardo
,
cleane
from
himselfe
fell
from
his
horse
to
the
ground
,
not
without
great
wondering
vnto
all
them
that
saw
that
terrible
and
furious
blow
:
and
looking
on
the
one
side
,
he
saw
the
Prince
Lusiano
,
how
he
was
in
fight
against
both
the
other
knights
,
who
then
with
a
trice
leaped
from
his
horse
,
and
went
and
put
himselfe
before
the
Duke
,
and
stroke
his
first
blow
at
him
in
such
sorte
,
that
he
made
him
to
stoope
with
both
his
hands
to
the
ground
.
Then
the
Duke
,
who
was
of
a
valiant
and
stout
courage
,
let
Lusiano
in
battaile
with
Carmelio
,
and
began
to
charge
Rosicleer
with
such
mightie
and
strong
blowes
,
that
he
made
him
to
vnderstand
,
that
he
was
a
valiant
and
worthie
knight
.
And
it
gréeued
Rosicleer
verie
much
to
thincke
that
in
the
Duke
should
remaine
so
great
treason
,
he
being
a
knight
of
so
great
bountie
and
valour
in
armes
.
And
being
verie
desirous
that
the
truth
thereof
might
be
knowne
,
he
forced
himselfe
all
that
euer
he
could
,
for
to
ouercome
the
Duke
,
who
for
a
while
did
defend
himselfe
very
valiantly
,
being
greatly
amazed
at
the
strange
bountie
and
force
of
his
aduersarie
,
and
could
not
immagine
who
it
should
be
,
except
he
were
sent
from
heauen
for
to
punish
the
great
treason
which
hée
had
done
against
the
Dutches
,
as
one
worthie
thereoff
.
All
this
time
the
prince
Liriamandro
séeing
himselfe
in
the
presence
of
his
father
and
mother
,
and
desirous
to
get
honour
before
them
,
dyd
so
ouercharge
his
aduersarie
,
that
in
a
smal
time
he
abated
the
courage
of
Ricardo
,
that
the
vauntage
was
on
Liriamandros
part
.
Likewise
the
gentle
Lusiano
&
the
stout
Carmelio
who
were
almost
equall
in
bountie
,
with
great
force
charged
the
one
that
other
with
such
blowes
,
that
they
semed
to
be
all
on
fire
,
with
the
great
quantitie
of
sparkes
that
flew
out
of
their
armour
,
and
although
for
a
good
while
there
was
knowen
no
aduauntage
betwixt
them
,
yet
in
the
end
the
couragious
force
of
the
Prince
endured
longest
,
and
he
did
so
intreate
his
aduersarie
,
that
he
would
haue
giuen
a
great
part
of
his
estate
,
so
that
he
might
haue
béene
cléered
of
that
battaile
with
honour
.
The
which
grieued
nothing
at
all
the
faire
Polisena
,
who
séeing
her
knight
so
stout
and
light
in
the
battaile
,
receiued
great
ioye
and
pleasure
,
and
with
shedding
of
many
teares
praie●
vnto
God
for
to
deliuer
him
cleere
from
that
battaile
,
as
one
that
made
no
reckning
to
liue
anie
longer
than
the
sawe
him
aliue
,
but
quicklie
she
was
brought
out
of
that
care
,
for
that
the
inclite
and
worthie
Gréeke
that
dyd
combat
with
the
Duke
●
charged
him
so
fast
with
his
terrible
and
furious
blowes
,
that
hée
made
him
all
astonied
and
amazed
,
that
he
knew
not
whether
he
went
,
nor
where
he
stroke
his
blowes
,
and
●éeing
him
in
that
perplexitie
,
with
his
right
hand
hée
tooke
him
fast
by
the
goriet
,
and
pulled
him
with
so
greate
strength
,
that
hée
ouerthrew
him
at
his
féete
,
and
before
he
could
arise
again
,
he
put
his
knée
vpon
his
breast
,
and
pulled
his
healme
from
his
head
,
and
put
his
swoorde
vnto
his
throate
,
and
sayde
thus
.
Duke
,
thou
art
but
dead
,
if
thou
doest
not
confesse
the
truth
of
this
treason
which
thou
hast
raised
against
the
Dutchesse
of
Austria
.
Then
the
Duke
séeing
himselfe
in
that
extremitie
,
thought
of
truth
that
the
diuine
iustice
was
come
vppon
him
,
and
that
he
was
some
Angell
sent
from
God
for
to
destroie
and
kill
him
,
and
fearing
least
both
bodie
and
soule
should
bée
destroyed
,
he
determined
to
tell
the
truth
of
all
the
whole
treason
,
so
that
he
sayde
vnto
Rosicleer
,
that
hée
should
holde
his
hands
and
not
kill
him
,
not
for
that
he
feared
to
die
,
but
to
saue
his
soule
,
he
would
tell
him
the
truth
thereof
.
Then
Rosicleer
did
assure
him
his
life
,
and
gaue
him
his
hand
,
and
dyd
helpe
him
to
arise
from
the
ground
,
and
when
he
sawe
the
other
knights
in
battaile
,
he
and
Rosicleer
went
and
did
part
them
,
and
put
themselues
betwéene
them
,
and
sayd
.
Sir
knights
,
let
this
your
contentious
battaile
cease
,
for
there
is
no
reason
wherfore
you
should
receiue
anie
harme
,
but
I
alone
who
is
in
the
fault
and
worthie
to
be
blamed
.
At
which
words
saying
,
Liriamandro
had
ouerthrowen
the
stout
Ricardo
,
&
Lusiano
had
brought
Carmelio
into
a
great
perplexitie
,
so
that
they
had
not
much
a
doe
to
part
them
,
the
which
being
done
,
the
Duke
with
an
high
voice
,
that
the
king
and
all
that
were
there
about
him
might
heare
,
declared
all
the
whole
treason
,
how
and
in
what
sort
,
in
all
points
as
he
dyd
it
,
and
as
you
haue
heard
.
But
when
the
gentle
Lusiano
sawe
the
honour
of
his
spouse
so
cleere
,
and
the
great
fortune
and
victorie
that
he
had
in
the
battaile
,
whereas
before
both
the
honour
of
his
Ladie
and
his
lyfe
was
cleane
lost
,
it
cannot
bée
expressed
the
great
ioy
and
plea●ure
that
entered
into
his
heart
,
and
how
thankfullie
he
gratified
Rosicleer
and
Liriamandro
,
desiring
them
to
shew
him
so
much
pleasure
as
to
tell
him
who
they
were
,
&
to
take
of
his
treasure
all
that
was
their
pleasure
and
wills
,
for
that
was
too
little
for
them
,
in
consideration
of
the
great
pleasure
that
they
dyd
for
him
.
But
the
ioy
and
contentment
which
the
faire
Polisena
receiued
,
no
man
is
able
to
expresse
.
Likewise
the
King
and
the
Queene
were
verie
ioyfull
,
for
they
loued
meruailous
well
the
Prince
Lusiano
and
the
Dutchesse
,
and
meruailing
verie
much
at
the
straunge
bountie
of
the
kni●●tes
,
they
thought
it
long
till
they
knew
what
they
were
,
for
that
they
vnderstood
they
were
not
of
that
Countrie
.
The
king
then
commaunded
that
they
shoulde
come
before
him
,
who
straight
wayes
with
Lusiano
went
before
the
king
,
and
when
that
they
had
done
their
dutie
,
and
before
that
they
pulled
off
their
healmes
,
or
treated
of
anie
other
matter
,
they
craued
of
the
king
that
both
the
Duke
and
the
Damsell
might
bee
pardoned
,
and
although
the
king
determined
to
punish
them
as
they
had
deserued
,
yet
in
the
ende
at
their
request
hee
dyd
pardon
them
,
with
this
condition
,
that
the
Duke
with
the
Damsell
should
out
of
hand
depart
the
Court
,
and
neuer
more
in
all
their
liues
to
enter
into
the
same
.
The
Duke
straight
waies
gaue
great
thankes
vnto
the
knightes
for
that
which
for
him
they
had
done
,
&
the
same
daie
after
that
they
knew
who
the
knights
were
,
he
departed
from
the
Court
with
his
damsell
,
and
the
reward
which
he
gaue
vnto
her
for
her
labour
,
was
,
that
the
same
night
he
slew
her
in
a
Forrest
,
being
ashamed
of
that
which
with
her
he
had
done
.
And
this
is
the
reward
that
all
such
ought
to
looke
for
,
for
although
there
be
many
that
would
profit
themselues
of
the
treason
,
yet
in
conclusion
(
by
great
fortune
)
there
are
few
traitors
that
doe
escape
their
reward
,
&
surelie
they
ought
not
to
be
suffered
amongst
men
,
for
that
there
is
no
perill
or
daunger
that
may
be
compared
vnto
the
mischieuous
practise
and
pretence
of
a
traitor
no
not
the
raging
waues
of
the
sea
,
earthquakes
,
whirle
winds
,
thunder
boltes
,
stormes
,
warres
,
no
nor
the
furie
of
the
elements
,
for
the
proofe
whereof
I
doe
referre
mée
vnto
the
mightie
Alexander
,
whose
●lying
in
the
aire
,
and
trauailing
on
the
seas
,
whose
conquests
of
the
whole
world
,
with
wars
and
battailes
,
none
of
all
these
were
sufficient
for
to
bring
him
vnto
his
end
,
but
onelie
a
traitor
,
one
of
his
owne
retinue
,
by
treason
did
kill
him
.
If
this
example
be
not
sufficient
,
consider
of
Darius
that
was
before
him
,
and
of
Priamus
the
mightie
,
Achilles
,
Minos
,
Nisus
,
Agamemnon
,
Romulus
,
Tarquinus
,
Seruius
,
and
the
minor
〈◊〉
,
the
mightie
Bompeus
,
Iulius
Caesar
,
and
many
other
Emperours
and
kings
,
vnto
whom
no
perill
was
so
dangerous
,
as
treason
,
ordained
and
wrought
by
their
owne
seruants
,
so
that
with
great
reason
the
traitor
ought
to
be
abhorred
,
as
wel
as
they
that
doe
inioy
the
benefite
of
treason
rewarded
,
as
well
the
Damsell
as
the
Duke
Roberto
,
who
thought
she
went
for
to
bée
rewarded
for
her
trauaile
,
yet
she
receiued
the
iust
punishment
for
her
fault
.
But
now
to
returne
vnto
that
which
did
remaine
,
the
Hystorie
saith
,
that
after
the
king
had
pardoned
and
forgiuen
the
Duke
,
he
had
great
desire
for
to
knowe
whome
the
knights
were
.
Then
Rosicleer
and
Liriamandro
pulled
off
their
helmes
,
and
knéeling
downe
before
the
king
,
Liriamandro
sayd
:
Let
your
Highnesse
know
and
be
acquainted
with
this
knight
,
who
is
Rosicleer
,
sonne
vnto
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
and
of
the
Empresse
Briana
,
whom
al
the
whole
world
for
his
great
bountie
ought
to
honor
,
&
me
for
Liriamandro
your
sonne
,
and
of
the
Quéene
Augusta
my
Lady
&
mother
,
who
with
newes
of
great
ioy
and
pleasure
doe
come
to
kisse
your
handes
.
When
the
king
knew
to
be
in
his
presence
his
so
long
desired
sonne
,
and
the
other
to
be
Rosicleer
his
nephew
,
it
cannot
be
expressed
the
great
ioy
,
contentment
,
&
pleasure
he
receiued
at
his
heart
,
as
he
that
in
all
the
world
desired
no
other
thing
,
and
as
one
from
himselfe
with
great
ioy
he
went
&
embraced
them
,
saying
:
Oh
my
sonnes
,
what
ioyfull
and
happie
newes
is
this
vnto
me
,
for
that
in
it
is
accomplished
the
thing
that
I
most
desired
before
I
should
die
,
how
is
it
that
you
haue
consented
so
long
time
to
kéepe
from
me
this
great
ioy
?
The
king
had
scarce
concluded
these
wordes
,
when
that
the
Queene
with
incredible
ioy
&
great
hast
came
vnto
them
,
&
threw
her
armes
about
their
necks
,
whereas
she
remained
embracing
of
them
both
a
greate
while
,
and
could
not
speake
one
word
for
ioy
.
Thus
after
there
had
passed
betwixt
them
many
wordes
of
great
ioy
in
this
their
ioyfull
meeting
,
straight
waies
the
Prince
Lusiano
came
and
kneeled
downe
before
them
,
and
would
haue
kissed
their
hands
,
as
well
for
the
great
curtesie
which
they
had
done
for
him
,
as
also
for
that
Liriamandro
was
his
Prince
and
naturall
Lord
,
but
they
who
had
him
in
great
estimation
,
did
receiue
●nd
embrace
him
with
great
loue
and
ioy
.
Then
after
him
came
vnto
them
the
three
valiant
knights
,
Ricardo
,
Carmelio
,
and
Ambardo
,
and
offered
great
curtesie
vnto
the
two
Princes
,
who
did
them
great
honour
,
and
made
them
friends
with
Lusiano
,
as
persons
that
were
without
blame
in
the
treason
〈◊〉
.
But
when
these
newes
were
published
in
the
court
,
there
came
so
great
number
of
people
to
s●e
Rosicleer
&
Liriamandro
,
that
the
pallace
wold
not
holde
them
,
&
al
people
meruailed
at
their
strange
dispositions
,
but
in
in
especiall
of
Rosicleer
,
for
that
they
sayd
that
in
all
things
he
did
resemble
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
his
brother
,
he
that
was
so
famous
and
feared
in
that
Court
,
for
that
they
partlie
vnderstood
and
heard
of
his
wonderfull
acts
and
déeds
,
&
vnto
the
king
it
was
notorious
all
the
whole
Hystorie
of
Rosicleer
,
from
the
time
of
his
first
creation
&
bringing
vp
,
with
his
daughter
the
Princesse
Briana
,
till
such
time
as
hee
was
knowen
vnto
the
Emperour
his
father
and
Empresse
his
mother
.
Of
all
the
which
the
king
was
verie
ioyfull
&
pleasant
,
and
loued
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
his
sons
,
as
he
did
his
owne
sonne
Liriamandro
,
and
for
that
he
had
not
vntill
that
time
heard
of
the
successe
of
the
wars
that
he
had
against
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
he
was
verie
sorrowfull
and
full
of
care
,
and
thought
long
till
that
hée
had
heard
some
newes
thereof
,
and
if
he
gaue
anie
aide
&
succour
of
knights
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
it
was
not
for
anie
hatred
or
ill
will
that
he
bare
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
but
for
to
accomplish
that
wherin
he
was
bound
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
because
his
sonne
Prince
Edward
was
slaine
in
his
seruice
,
&
was
fullie
perswaded
that
all
the
whole
armie
of
the
king
Oliuerio
was
not
of
sufficient
power
for
to
doe
anie
harme
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
yet
afterwards
when
he
vnderstood
of
the
mightie
power
of
Pagans
that
were
come
vpon
Grecia
,
it
grieued
and
repented
him
of
that
he
had
done
,
so
that
if
it
had
not
bene
verie
much
against
his
honor
,
many
times
he
was
moued
in
conscience
for
to
go
and
succour
him
in
person
,
with
all
the
power
that
euer
he
could
make
,
&
being
verie
desirous
to
know
the
whole
successe
thereof
in
all
points
,
he
requested
the
Princesse
for
to
tell
him
,
who
(
as
those
that
knew
the
truth
thereof
)
in
the
presence
of
the
Quéene
,
and
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
of
the
Court
,
did
giue
him
to
vnderstand
as
well
of
the
successe
with
the
king
Oliuerio
as
with
the
Emperor
Alycandro
,
the
which
being
published
amongst
them
,
they
al
receiued
great
ioy
,
in
as
ample
maner
as
though
it
had
touched
either
of
them
in
perticular
,
but
in
especial
the
king
&
the
quéene
,
in
that
they
saw
how
much
to
their
honar
they
had
accomplished
their
promise
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
as
also
of
the
high
estate
wherevnto
their
daughter
the
Empresse
Briana
was
exalted
,
so
that
they
could
neuer
satisfie
themselues
in
giuing
thankes
vnto
almightie
God
for
those
great
benefites
shewed
vnto
them
.
When
these
things
were
passed
,
straight
waies
came
thether
Leonardo
and
his
wife
,
the
fained
parents
of
Rosicleer
,
with
whom
Rosicleer
receiued
great
pleasure
,
as
he
that
had
great
desire
for
to
sée
him
,
&
for
that
which
he
was
indebted
vnto
them
,
the
which
he
did
meruailouslie
well
gratefie
in
all
points
their
great
seruice
done
vnto
them
,
for
he
carried
them
with
him
vnto
Grecia
,
whereas
the
Empresse
Briana
did
make
them
owners
of
great
possessions
,
so
that
they
were
verie
well
content
,
and
thought
their
trauaile
verie
well
emploied
the
which
they
had
in
the
bringing
vp
of
Rosicleer
.
Likewise
Rosicleer
reioyced
verie
much
with
those
Gentlewomen
,
with
whom
he
was
brought
vp
in
the
Monasterie
of
the
Riuer
,
and
the
most
part
of
them
he
carried
into
Grecia
,
whereas
he
did
verie
much
for
them
all
.
Then
for
that
the
king
dyd
beare
great
good
will
vnto
the
Prince
Lusiano
,
and
had
him
in
high
estimation
,
he
straight
waies
commanded
that
his
spouse
the
Dutchesse
of
Austria
should
bée
deliuered
vnto
him
.
After
this
sort
within
few
daies
that
their
nuptialls
were
celebrated
with
great
honour
and
triumphs
,
which
those
knights
his
friendes
dyd
ordaine
,
in
the
which
the
gentle
Lusiano
dyd
so
much
,
that
he
got
vnto
himselfe
honour
for
euer
after
.
And
in
the
meane
time
of
all
these
sportes
and
feasts
,
Rosicleer
and
Lyriamandro
did
declare
their
message
vnto
the
king
,
desiring
him
in
the
part
and
behalfe
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
and
of
the
Empresse
Briana
,
that
he
woulde
thinke
well
for
to
goe
with
them
vnto
Constantinople
,
for
to
reioyie
themselues
of
the
victorie
and
ioy
,
the
which
the
Emperour
and
the
Empresse
doe
receiue
.
Likewise
they
gaue
great
and
lawfull
excuses
,
wherfore
the
Emperour
Trebatio
did
abstaine
from
comming
into
the
Countrie
,
for
that
he
had
in
his
court
such
mightie
Princes
and
Lords
,
that
there
had
ben
no
reason
for
him
to
leaue
them
.
Then
the
king
and
the
Quéene
,
as
they
which
desired
no
other
thing
,
commanded
Straignt
waies
that
all
things
should
be
put
in
a
readinesse
néedfull
for
their
iourney
,
and
for
that
we
haue
other
matters
to
declare
for
the
conclusion
of
the
first
part
of
this
Hystorie
,
there
is
héere
no
more
to
be
said
,
but
that
Rosicleer
and
Liriamndro
did
passe
awaie
the
time
in
Hungaria
,
till
such
time
as
they
were
readie
to
depart
,
as
shall
be
tolde
you
in
the
next
Chapter
following
.
How
the
king
Tiberio
with
the
Queene
Augusta
,
Rosicleer
,
and
Liriamandro
,
departed
out
of
Hungaria
,
and
tooke
their
iourney
towards
Constantinople
.
Chap.
46.
WHen
the
daie
appointed
was
come
of
their
departure
,
the
king
and
the
Quéene
,
with
all
the
other
worthie
Princes
and
knightes
of
his
Court
departed
out
of
Viana
,
&
tooke
their
iourney
towards
the
mightie
Empire
of
Grecia
,
in
the
which
they
trauailed
many
daies
,
without
happening
anie
thing
worthie
the
telling
,
in
the
end
whereof
they
ariued
within
two
miles
of
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
and
when
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
knowledge
of
their
comming
,
with
great
ioy
and
pleasure
,
he
and
all
those
mightie
Princes
and
valyant
knights
together
went
out
of
Constantinople
with
so
great
maiestie
,
that
it
séemed
all
the
whole
worlde
were
ioyned
together
,
the
number
was
so
excéeding
great
,
so
that
the
king
of
Hungaria
and
the
Queene
Augusta
his
wife
,
with
all
those
that
came
with
them
,
were
wonderfullie
amazed
to
sée
so
royall
and
worthie
knighthoode
to
come
forth
of
Constantinople
,
for
of
truth
they
neuer
woulde
haue
thought
that
so
many
as
there
were
,
might
haue
béene
receiued
in
the
court
of
anie
Prince
whatsoeuer
he
were
in
al
the
whole
world
.
But
when
the
king
and
the
Emperour
sawe
one
an
other
,
they
both
went
&
met
together
,
&
did
embrace
the
one
the
other
,
with
such
great
loue
as
ought
to
be
betwéene
Father
and
sonne
,
and
as
though
they
had
knowen
one
another
long
time
before
.
And
if
before
the
king
Tiberio
and
the
Queene
Augusta
did
account
themselues
happie
&
fortunate
to
haue
so
high
a
Prince
for
their
sonne
in
law
,
yet
now
they
did
much
more
when
they
sawe
his
person
&
presence
to
be
so
strange
&
wonderfull
,
for
alonelie
by
his
semblance
and
proportion
they
knew
him
for
father
of
the
two
brethren
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
;
aboue
all
other
Princes
that
came
in
that
worthie
crew
.
The
king
and
the
Emperour
had
not
yet
fullie
concluded
the
louing
words
of
their
first
méeting
,
when
that
the
Quéene
Augusta
came
vnto
them
,
and
with
the
selfe
same
loue
wherewith
she
did
embrace
her
sonne
Liriamandro
did
embrace
the
good
Emperor
▪
Then
came
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
(
who
aboue
all
the
rest
might
be
séene
,
he
was
of
so
gallant
and
tall
statu●e
)
&
offered
to
kisse
the
kings
hands
,
but
the
king
would
not
consent
vnto
it
,
but
embraced
him
,
and
the
king
clasped
him
verie
hard
betwéene
his
armes
,
saying
:
Oh
happie
and
fortunate
kinsman
,
I
doe
now
finde
my selfe
in
great
securitie
,
for
that
I
am
in
the
armes
of
him
that
alone
did
defend
himselfe
from
all
my
power
,
&
made
my
kingdome
to
tremble
and
quake
,
tell
me
I
praie
you
,
if
that
you
haue
forgotten
that
anger
or
not
,
if
you
haue
not
,
then
am
I
fullie
perswaded
that
I
haue
no
securitie
in
my
owne
.
Countrie
of
Hungaria
,
much
lesse
in
Grecia
?
My
good
Lord
and
grandfather
(
said
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
)
your
highnesse
in
whatsoeuer
place
you
are
,
is
in
great
securitie
from
my
handes
,
for
although
I
would
procure
anie
outrage
,
yet
am
not
I
sufficient
to
doe
you
anie
harme
,
and
if
I
were
fortunate
against
your
knights
,
it
was
nothing
else
but
the
wil
of
God
to
saue
and
deliuer
me
,
for
that
afterwards
when
you
should
know
me
you
should
not
haue
so
great
reason
to
bée
sorrowfull
,
as
now
you
shoulde
bée
,
if
I
had
at
that
time
béene
slaine
.
Then
the
king
said
:
Ah
my
sonne
,
if
that
had
happened
,
my
life
could
not
haue
endured
so
long
,
but
God
who
doth
know
the
secret
of
all
things
that
shuld
happen
vnto
vs
,
did
guide
and
gouerne
all
things
,
in
such
sort
,
that
it
is
come
to
this
point
and
instant
,
wherein
I
doe
account
my selfe
the
most
fortunatest
Prince
in
all
the
whole
world
,
not
onelie
in
knowing
thée
to
bée
my
sonne
,
but
in
recouering
you
to
bée
my
friend
.
The
king
had
scarce
concluded
these
wordes
,
when
that
the
Quéene
came
to
embrace
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
but
he
did
offer
to
kisse
her
hands
,
and
there
passed
betwixt
them
many
swéete
and
amorous
wordes
,
such
as
might
passe
betwéene
the
mother
and
the
sonne
,
at
such
time
as
of
long
time
they
had
not
séene
the
one
the
other
.
The
Quéene
Augusta
receiued
so
great
ioy
and
contentment
to
haue
him
in
her
presence
,
that
she
knew
not
almost
where
she
was
.
Then
approched
vnto
them
the
king
Oliuerio
,
with
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
and
all
those
mightie
Princes
and
Lords
,
wheras
passed
betwixt
them
great
curtesie
,
with
such
dutie
as
appertained
vnto
so
high
and
worthie
estates
.
In
this
noble
méeting
they
spent
a
good
while
,
the
which
being
finished
,
the
Emperour
Trebatio
accompanied
himselfe
with
the
king
,
&
euerie
one
●hose
his
companion
as
best
liked
him
,
and
began
to
returne
towardes
the
mightie
Citie
of
Constantinople
.
The
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
did
carrie
betweene
them
the
Quéene
Augusta
(
who
went
with
so
great
ioy
and
pleasure
that
she
knew
not
were
she
was
)
to
sée
her selfe
in
the
middest
betwixt
so
worthie
nephewes
.
When
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
opportunitie
,
he
sayd
vnto
the
king
:
Now
is
my
desire
fullie
accomplished
,
in
that
I
do
sée
your
Hignesse
in
this
Countrie
,
for
although
all
other
thinges
succeeded
vnto
me
prosperous
,
as
I
haue
desired
,
yet
had
I
no
conclusion
of
all
this
my
victorie
,
neither
could
I
receiue
anie
glorie
therein
,
till
now
I
haue
your
Highnesse
in
my
presence
,
and
doe
honour
and
obey
you
as
dutifullie
as
your
owne
naturall
sonne
.
And
if
the
great
obligation
in
the
which
you
were
bound
vnto
the
king
of
great
Britaine
,
had
not
béene
betwixt
vs
,
I
and
the
Empresse
Briana
many
a
time
long
ere
this
,
had
come
vnto
you
to
haue
craued
pardon
for
that
which
is
past
,
with
lisence
and
consentment
for
that
which
was
to
come
.
For
although
the
Empresse
Briana
séemed
to
receiue
contentment
to
be
with
mée
in
Grecia
,
yet
receiued
I
great
griefe
,
for
that
I
could
not
accomplish
of
my
part
,
the
dutie
which
I
owe
vnto
your
highnesse
.
When
that
the
Emperor
had
concluded
these
words
,
then
the
king
(
who
receiued
great
pleasure
thereat
)
sayd
:
Soueraigne
Emperour
,
if
that
you
haue
receiued
great
ioy
,
contentment
and
pleasure
,
at
my
comming
into
Grecia
,
how
much
more
reason
haue
I
to
reioyce
and
receue
pleasure
to
haue
so
glorious
a
sight
of
your
person
and
presence
,
being
accompanied
and
honoured
with
the
most
highest
&
mightiest
Emperours
and
kings
of
all
the
world
,
and
mounted
vnto
the
highest
estate
of
honour
that
fortune
may
extend
,
the
which
is
apparaunt
before
my
eyes
,
&
also
endued
with
such
sonnes
,
that
there
is
not
the
lyke
knightes
in
all
the
whole
world
.
And
here
I
doe
acknowledge
that
I
am
not
worthie
of
so
high
a
kinseman
:
and
in
that
you
haue
saide
(
of
my
consentment
)
it
might
haue
bene
excused
,
for
that
I
doe
sée
it
cléerely
before
myne
eies
,
to
be
the
will
and
permission
of
God
,
by
whome
all
thinges
hath
bene
gouerned
,
for
the
which
neither
I
,
nor
any
of
your
aduersaries
could
withstand
or
resist
.
And
séeing
my
daughter
hath
brought
vnto
mée
the
highest
and
worthiest
Prince
of
all
the
world
to
be
my
sonne
in
law
,
and
that
this
marriage
was
made
by
the
diuine
will
and
permission
,
from
whence
hath
procéeded
so
excelent
,
〈◊〉
what
haue
I
to
saye
vnto
it
,
but
giue
vnto
the
soueraigne
creator
infinit
thankes
,
for
his
great
goodnesse
shewed
vnto
mée
.
And
doe
most
heartelie
desire
him
to
let
you
enioy
for
manie
yéeres
,
this
high
estate
into
the
which
you
are
exalted
,
and
also
the
high
and
worthie
progenie
that
he
hath
giuen
you
.
With
many
swéete
and
courteous
wordes
the
Emperour
Trebatio
did
gratifie
with
thanks
,
all
that
which
the
king
had
sayd
.
So
passing
betwixt
them
,
these
and
many
other
things
in
communication
,
which
were
to
long
here
to
rehearse
,
they
came
vnto
the
〈◊〉
of
Constantinople
,
whereas
the
king
of
Hungaria
and
the
Quéene
Augusta
were
wonderfullie
amazed
,
for
to
sée
the
great
knighthood
of
that
Court
,
for
that
with
great
difficultie
,
they
might
passe
the
wide
stréetes
,
the
multitude
was
so
great
,
so
that
it
was
a
good
while
before
they
could
come
vnto
the
mightie
pallas
:
but
when
they
came
thether
,
they
all
alighted
and
entred
into
the
mightie
broad
court
,
whereas
the
Empresse
Briana
dyd
receiue
them
,
with
that
ioy
and
pleasure
,
as
you
may
immagine
,
and
there
passed
betwixt
them
many
louing
and
sweete
words
,
as
betwixt
Fathers
and
children
,
the
which
I
doe
let
passe
,
to
eschue
tediousnesse
.
And
the
royall
Empresse
Briana
was
so
gallant
&
faire
,
that
her
Father
did
not
know
her
,
she
was
so
chaunged
.
Yet
they
well
perceiued
in
her
the
ioye
and
pleasure
she
receiued
,
and
the
more
to
manifest
her
glorie
,
she
did
shew
vnto
the
king
Tiberio
and
vnto
the
Quéene
Augusta
her
Mother
,
her
third
sonne
,
who
was
the
faire
Prince
Claramante
,
and
at
that
present
was
norished
in
the
court
with
his
Mother
,
with
so
great
care
,
as
in
this
next
Chapter
following
shal
be
declared
vnto
you
,
for
the
which
this
Historie
doth
leue
of
all
the
surplus
of
this
receiuing
and
comming
of
the
king
of
Hungaria
and
the
Queene
Augusta
,
for
that
they
remained
a
long
time
after
in
the
court
,
whereas
they
declared
at
large
the
one
vnto
the
other
,
the
whole
circumstances
of
all
that
had
passed
,
and
from
that
day
forwards
,
the
king
Oliuerio
and
the
king
of
Hungaria
were
great
friends
,
as
well
for
the
kindred
that
was
béetwixt
them
by
the
marriage
of
Rosicleer
vnto
the
Princesse
Oliuia
,
as
also
for
that
in
times
of
necessitie
,
these
two
kings
did
verie
much
the
one
for
the
other
.
But
in
especiall
the
king
of
Hungaria
,
setting
apart
the
great
loue
that
he
bare
vnto
his
sonne
in
law
and
neuew
,
he
would
accomplish
his
dutie
bound
vnto
the
king
Oliuerio
,
and
ayde
him
with
his
people
to
goe
against
Grecia
,
as
hath
bene
told
you
in
this
Historie
.
All
this
noble
crue
remained
certaine
daies
in
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
,
in
which
time
they
spent
their
time
in
no
other
thing
but
in
mirth
,
pastimes
&
triumphes
,
which
were
made
as
well
by
strange
knights
as
by
them
of
Grecia
:
and
might
well
be
saide
that
there
was
ioyned
together
all
the
magestie
of
the
world
.
How
the
young
Prince
Claramante
was
nourished
in
the
court
of
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
&
of
other
things
that
was
spoken
by
the
wife
Artimidoro
,
and
Lirgandeo
,
with
other
things
that
happened
.
Chapter
.
47.
IN
all
the
time
that
the
Emperour
was
in
Constantinople
,
there
lacked
not
the
two
wise
men
,
Artemidoro
and
Lirgandeo
,
who
were
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
and
of
his
sonnes
and
of
all
that
were
in
the
court
,
verie
much
estéemed
and
honoured
,
for
that
their
great
wisedome
&
vnderstanding
did
deserue
the
same
,
and
they
knew
that
they
had
in
charge
to
write
and
put
in
memorie
all
things
that
should
passe
.
And
although
for
that
as
then
it
was
not
time
for
to
discouer
the
secret
loues
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
they
would
not
in
this
part
make
them
manifest
,
neither
of
the
Prophesies
before
saide
,
although
the
most
part
of
them
hath
come
to
effect
:
yet
in
all
that
euer
these
two
wise
men
dyd
write
,
they
neuer
writ
any
thing
of
this
faire
youth
,
the
Prince
Claramante
,
sonne
vnto
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
but
onely
one
chapter
,
which
was
written
by
the
wi●e
Artemidoro
,
of
his
wonderful
Natiuitie
.
The
occasion
hath
bene
as
I
beléeue
,
the
great
trouble
which
they
had
in
penning
of
such
things
past
,
as
séemed
to
be
most
necessarie
in
this
part
of
the
Historie
.
And
now
for
that
it
semed
they
wer
all
occupied
in
tr●umphes
&
feastes
,
these
wise
men
were
at
more
leisure
,
so
that
both
of
them
did
write
of
the
young
prince
Claramante
,
as
of
a
person
,
whome
they
knew
afterwards
should
be
made
great
accompt
of
.
They
said
,
that
at
the
season
that
the
Emperour
Alicand●o
remained
in
Constantinople
,
Claramante
was
nour●●●
&
brought
vp
in
the
pallas
of
the
Emperour
his
father
,
and
was
of
the
age
of
thrée
yéeres
,
the
semeliest
,
whitest
and
fairest
creature
that
was
to
be
found
in
all
the
worlde
,
for
that
his
force
séemed
to
be
a
celestiall
Seraphin
,
as
may
be
immagined
here
amongst
men
,
&
his
haire
was
lyke
vnto
thrids
of
gold
.
Likewise
of
stature
tall
,
such
as
did
well
appeare
in
him
,
that
when
so
euer
he
should
come
to
his
perfect
groth
,
he
should
be
iof
bigge
stature
,
hée
was
of
a
gr●cious
semblaunt
and
merrie
,
yet
had
he
therewithal
so
great
seueritie
,
that
of
himselfe
he
séemed
to
haue
the
deitie
of
a
Prince
.
But
to
conclude
,
what
shall
we
saye
of
this
childe
,
the
wise
men
say
,
that
in
all
things
he
dyd
so
much
resemble
his
brother
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
that
many
times
(
as
shal
be
declared
vnto
you
in
the
second
part
of
this
mightie
Historie
)
the
one
was
taken
for
the
other
.
Oh
happie
and
fortunate
Claramante
,
(
saith
Li●gandeo
)
that
vnto
such
a
knight
and
soueraigne
Prince
thou
arte
compared
,
wherein
can
we
more
eralt
thée
,
but
in
this
thy
age
to
attribute
the
excelencies
which
thy
brother
had
being
but
a
childe
.
But
after
that
he
was
an
armed
knight
,
this
faire
childe
was
of
all
knights
Ladies
and
damsells
so
welbelo●ed
,
that
none
would
willinglie
depart
out
of
his
companie
.
And
now
for
that
he
was
so
amorous
,
all
people
recei●ed
with
him
great
pleasure
and
sport
,
but
aboue
all
other
he
was
estéemed
and
beloued
of
the
precious
princesse
Lindabrides
.
For
that
he
did
resemble
so
much
that
figure
the
which
she
hadde
printed
in
her
heart
,
she
could
neuer
leau●
him
out
of
her
armes
,
so
that
when
the
childe
should
depart
,
he
conceiued
a
displeasure
,
and
the
princesse
an
inward
sorow
for
his
absence
,
equall
to
the
absence
of
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
.
The
occasion
thereof
was
,
for
that
she
dyd
cocker
and
make
more
of
him
,
then
any
other
,
the
childe
conceiued
a
greater
loue
vnto
her
then
vnto
the
Empresse
his
mother
that
nourished
him
with
her
breastes
,
so
that
the
child
could
neuer
be
from
her
,
wherat
the
Emperour
&
the
Empresse
receiued
great
pleasure
,
and
it
was
the
occasion
that
they
loued
and
bare
a
greater
good
will
vnto
that
royall
Princesse
.
And
as
vpon
a
day
,
in
the
mightie
quadran
,
were
ioyned
all
those
mightie
Princes
and
knights
,
and
all
the
Ladies
and
damsells
of
the
court
,
sh●wing
great
ioye
and
p●stime
,
there
was
amongst
them
the
olde
king
of
Gedrosia
,
for
that
he
and
other
fiue
kings
,
vassailes
vnto
the
Emperour
Alicandro
,
after
the
blouddie
field
was
done
,
were
taken
prisoners
,
by
reason
they
were
ouerthrowen
from
their
horse
,
they
could
not
flye
out
of
the
campe
as
other
dyd
:
&
as
it
hath
bene
toulde
you
in
this
Historie
before
,
that
this
king
was
very
wise
,
and
well
seene
in
deuinations
,
and
partly
knew
of
things
to
come
,
and
tolde
many
things
vnto
the
Emperor
Alicandro
,
before
he
departed
out
of
the
gran
Tartaria
,
that
afterwards
came
to
passe
,
that
if
they
had
giuen
credit
vnto
his
good
counsell
,
the
Emperour
had
not
bene
brought
vnto
that
extremitie
in
the
which
he
was
.
Not
for
that
those
things
which
are
ordained
by
God
may
be
eschued
,
but
for
that
all
men
hath
frée
will
,
to
apart
them selues
from
such
things
as
be
euill
&
hurtfull
:
but
if
God
doe
first
determine
and
predestinate
any
thing
,
it
is
for
that
he
doth
know
to
what
ende
the
frée
will
of
man
will
●row
vnto
.
Being
there
in
that
conuersation
with
the
king
of
Gedrosia
,
and
séeing
the
great
pleasure
and
pastime
that
was
amongst
them
,
giueing
a
great
sigh
that
was
heard
of
them
all
,
he
saids
:
Oh
miserable
world
,
that
for
one
pleasure
alone
,
thou
doest
giue
and
retourne
two
thousande
griefes
and
sorowes
.
In
saying
these
words
he
hild
his
peace
and
would
say
no
more
,
till
such
time
as
the
Emperour
Trebatio
(
who
had
him
in
reputation
of
a
man
of
vnderstanding
,
and
greatly
meruailed
at
those
his
words
,
being
spoken
at
that
time
)
asked
of
him
wherefore
he
spake
those
wordes
.
I
doe
speake
them
(
sayde
the
king
)
for
that
the
world
doth
●se
vs
as
children
,
at
sometimes
singing
,
&
at
other
times
wéeping
,
&
many
times
a
faire
and
cléere
morning
,
is
turned
into
a
clowdie
and
sorowfull
euening
.
And
there
is
no
pleasure
or
pastime
can
be
so
great
,
but
that
sorow
and
heauinesse
doth
disturbe
i●
,
we
be
like
vnto
the
ayer
,
that
being
so
cleare
and
faire
that
we
cannot
almost
discerne
it
from
the
firmament
,
vpon
a
sodaine
,
with
a
little
wind
that
do●h
arise
,
is
troubled
and
darkenot
:
so
likewise
when
that
vnto
our
iudgements
we
are
most
ioyfull
and
merrie●
vpon
a
sodaine
,
not
knowing
from
whence
it
commeth
,
we
finde
our selues
put
in
great
sadnesse
and
teares
.
This
doth
procéede
for
that
all
our
felicitie
and
prosperitie
;
we
doe
build
vpon
things
that
of
themselues
doe
perish
and
decay
.
We
are
also
like
vnto
trauailer
〈…〉
Seas
,
whose
faire
and
calme
wether
is
vpon
the

who
of

is
moueable
and
of
small
foundation
,
and
looke
so
many
times
as
they
be
assalted
with
the
winde
,
so
many
times
their
pleasure
doe
abate
,
and
their
sorrowes
double
.
Euen
so
doe
we
put
all
our
felieitie
in
thirgs
wherein
is
no
stabilitie
,
but
like
vnto
the
loa●es
that
is
caried
away
with
euerie
winde
,
as
it
apeareth
in
high
estates
and

,
for
the

the
greater
is
his
fall

In

,
difficultie
in
the
getting

with
care
in
the

,
and
sorow
in

vnto
manie
it
causeth
death
,
and
depriueth
all

.
The
most
fairest

a
short
time
doth
〈◊〉
and
fade
a
way
like
a
flower
,
and
he
that
is
of
most
force
&
strength
,
is
ouerthrowen
with
a
little
Feauer
.
When
a
friend
doth
dye
or
is
lost
,
in
especiall
of
children
,
then
swéete
mingled
by-tternesse
,
Honey
mixt
with
gall
,
miserable

,
rarefull

and
many

sorowfull

alonely
doth

much
pleasure
and

vnto
little
children
,
who
are
no

subiect
vnto

,
then
the
delicate
flower
.
Of
many
things
,
that
I
haue
spoken
of
,
you
haue
had
experience
,
so
likewise
,
verie
shortly
,
you
shall
see
the
proofe
of
the
rest
that
lacketh
,
if
that
Nature
or
Fortune
,
doth
not
disturbe
or
lette
it

I
will
saye
no
more
vnto
you
,
for
that
it
is
not
giuen
vnto
vs
to
affirme
that
which
we
doe
deuine

but
to
declare
that
which
the
order
of
Nature
doth
show

Héerewith
the
olde
king
concluded
his
reasons
,
&
for
that
all
those
Lords
that
were
there
present
were
wise
&
of
great
vnderstanding
,
they
well
vnderstood
that
his
words
did
extend
vnto
some
thing
that
should
happen
vnto
that
faire
&
young
child
Claramante
,
and
could
not
let
but
receiue
some
trouble
of
minde
,
but
yet
for
that
his
Father
and
brethren
were
or
noble
and
valiant
hearts
,
they
did
not
onelie
with
equall
and
quiet
minde
abide
that
which
the
starres
did
permit
,
but
also
referred
all
things
vnto
the
determination
of
the
soueraigne
creator
,
so
that
they
answered
nothing
vnto
that
which
the
king
had
said
,
but
the
wise
Artemidoro
,
that
had
more
vnderstanding
in
the
art
Magicke
than
the
king
answered
vnto
his
wordes
and
sayd
.
By
your
word
we
do
vnderstand
(
wise
king
of
Gedrosia
)
that
you
would
declare
some
things
that
should
happen
vnto
this
faire
child
Claramante
,
as
of
truth
it
is
so
,
for
that
his
parents
shall
sustaine
great
sorrow
and
griefe
for
him
,
but
according
as
his
good
fortune
and
destinie
doth
promise
vnto
him
,
it
shall
be
for
a
greater
glorie
and
extolling
of
the
Gréekish
Empire
,
and
so
much
more
ioyful
shal
his
prosperitie
&
good
fortune
be
,
than
his
sorrowfull
&
peruerse
fortune
which
is
ordained
,
great
reason
hath
his
father
to
reioyce
of
such
a
son
,
for
the
excellent
fr●it
which
shall
procéed
of
so
worthie
a
blossome
,
&
yet
there
is
no
peruerse
fortune
that
can
be
so
contrarie
vnto
him
,
to
be
compared
in
equalitie
vnto
that
which
happened
vnto
his
brothren
in
their
first
age
,
who
hauing
now
passed
all
their
misfortunes
,
with
more
ioy
and
pleasure
do
inioy
the
time
of
their
prosperitie
.
So
shall
it
bée
of
this
faire
Claramante
,
for
that
his
high
and
strange
birth
doth
not
prognosticate
anie
other
thing
.
When
the
wise
Artemidoro
had
concluded
these
words
,
it
gaue
great
conteatment
vnto
them
all
,
whereas
before
the
words
of
the
king
of
Gedrosia
did
cause
in
them
great
sorrowe
,
thinking
that
some
euill
hap
and
misfortune
had
béene
ordained
against
that
most
singular
and
gracious
childe
,
Claramante
,
but
most
especiallie
,
the
beautifull
and
exouisite
Princesse
Lindabrides
,
who
scarcelie
dyd
shed
many
teares
,
as
one
that
dyd
●ou●
him
more
then
her
owne
parents
,
onely
for
the
loue
of
that
figure
that
he
dyd
represent
.
And
for
that
it
is
now
time
that
the
great
griefe
&
ouermuch
sorrow
of
this
precious
Princesse
should
cease
,
this
Historie
doth
declare
what
the
two
wise
men
Artemidoro
,
and
Lirgandeo
dyd
for
to
put
remedie
in
the
same
.

How
the
faire
Lindabrides
by
arte
of

two

was
inchanted

Chapter

48.
NOw
saith
the
Historie
,
the
Emperour
Alicandro
remaining
manie
dayes
in
the
Court
of
the
Emperour
Trebatio
,
was
the
occasion
that
the
griefe
of
the
faire
Princesse
Lindabrides
dyd
euery
daye
increase
more
and
more
,
one
waye
for
that
the
presence
of
the
very
faire
and
worthie
Princes
Claridiana
dyd
make
her
suspect
that
which
her
knight
(
he
of
the
Sunne
)
had
determined
within
his
heart
:
&
an
other
way
,
in
remembring
that
in
the
ende
the
Emperour
her
Father
would
〈◊〉
into
his
countrie
againe
,
and
that
forseably
she
must
〈◊〉
with
him
;
all
the
which
she
could
not
suffer
with
pacience
,
neither
immagine
that
it
should
be
possible
for
her
to
departe
out
of
G●ecla
〈◊〉
,
●
that
in
thinking
hereof
,
her
dolour
and
griefe
was
such
that
many
times
it
brought
her
●o
the
point
of
death
.
And
for
that
all
this
was
not
hyd
from
the
two
wise
men
Li●gandeo
and
Ar●einido●o
,
and
vnto
the
Quéene
〈◊〉
her
damsell
,
many
times
hauing
great
compassion
on
this
faire
Princesse
,
they
dyd
determine
amongst
themselues
to
put
some
remedie
in
the
same
,
in
such
sort
,
that
she
might
not
liue
in
so
great
sorow
and
griefe
.
Being
fully
persuaded
in
their
determination
,
and
knowing
what
afterwards
would
happen
and
come
to
〈…〉
together
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
knights
,
Ladies
,
and
damsells
,
in
the
emperiall
pallace
,
the
daie
being
verie
faire
,
and
the
Sunne
cléere
and
bright
,
vpon
a
sodaine
there
came
ouer
the
Citie
a
great
cloude
,
that
was
so
blacke
and
darke
,
that
béeing
together
they
could
scarcelie
sée
one
another
,
out
of
the
which
procéeded
great
thunderinges
and
lightninges
that
were
terrible
to
behold
,
in
such
sort
,
that
all
the
whole
Citie
trembled
as
though
it
would
haue
sunke
,
and
not
one
amongst
them
all
,
he
of
most
courage
,
but
was
in
great
feare
,
because
they
knew
not
what
it
should
meane
.
This
storme
and
tempest
indured
halfe
an
houre
,
&
was
so
darke
as
the
night
,
at
such
time
as
when
the
Moone
is
in
her
coniunction
,
and
all
those
worthie
Princes
and
knights
were
together
in
a
mightie
quadran
,
and
would
not
depart
from
thence
,
for
that
they
would
not
leaue
that
gallant
&
faire
crew
of
Ladies
&
Gentlewomen
alone
,
who
was
meruailouslie
afraid
and
in
great
dreade
of
that
which
they
sawe
.
Being
in
this
sort
,
and
dazeled
with
the
darknesse
,
they
sawe
out
of
the
mightie
windowes
(
which
were
open
)
comming
towardes
them
in
the
aire
,
a
great
burning
fire
which
did
lighten
all
the
earth
,
&
extinguish
the
darknes
,
the
which
when
it
drew
nigher
vnto
them
,
they
sawe
that
it
was
two
furious
dragons
that
did
throw
out
all
that
fire
which
they
did
sée
,
at
their
mouthes
,
noses
,
&
eies
,
and
séemed
to
be
infernal
diuels
,
that
it
did
surmount
the
noise
of
thunder
.
These
two
dragons
were
yoked
together
,
and
brought
with
them
a
Coch
all
of
bright
and
shining
Christall
,
in
the
which
were
set
two
〈◊〉
of
the
same
Christall
set
full
of
bliew
Saphires
and
Rubies
,
the
one
of
them
was
emptie
,
and
in
the
other
was
set
a
Damsell
or
great
beautie
,
who
séemed
vnto
them
all
to
bée
the
wise
Quéene
●ulia
,
and
shée
brought
in
her
hand
a
little
violl
of
Glasse
,
full
of
verie
faire
and
cléere
water
.
When
these
Dragons
came
vnto
the
windowes
the
which
were
as
though
they
had
béene
verie
wide
gates
,
they
entered
in
thereat
,
and
straight
waies
put
themselues
with
their
Coch
into
the
middest
of
the
great
Quadran
,
whereat
all
that
were
there
present
receiued
great
feare
&
dreade
,
but
in
especiall
the
women
,
who
remained
as
dead
persons
.
Then
the
knights
séeing
the
great
perplexitie
and
fearefull
estate
of
the
women
,
would
haue
drawen
their
swords
and
made
contention
against
the
dragons
,
but
the
Quéene
I●lia
who
came
in
the
Coch
,
said
vnto
them
:
My
Lords
and
worthie
knights
,
holde
your
hands
a
while
,
for
that
you
are
in
securitie
,
and
you
shall
vnderstand
that
I
am
not
come
for
anie
other
thing
,
but
to
aske
and
craue
a
bound
of
the
Princesse
my
Ladie
and
Mistres
.
At
which
wordes
they
were
all
in
quiet
.
Then
the
Quéene
descended
downe
out
of
the
Coch
with
her
Glasse
violl
in
her
hand
,
and
went
vnto
her
Ladie
the
Princesse
(
who
was
in
great
feare
of
the
Dragons
)
and
knéeled
downe
before
her
and
sayd
as
follow●th
.
Madame
,
if
anie
part
of
my
seruice
doth
deserue
anie
reward
at
your
Highnesse
hands
,
let
me
craue
now
in
recompence
of
the
same
,
that
your
Highnesse
will
graunt
vnto
me
a
bowne
,
the
which
I
will
demand
.
Then
the
Princesse
being
greatlie
amazed
to
sée
her
in
that
order
,
with
great
curtes●e
and
gentle
grace
,
said
:
I
doe
graunt
it
vnto
you
.
The
Quéene
then
kissed
her
hands
for
the
great
curtesie
shewed
vnto
her
,
and
shewing
vnto
her
the
little
Glasse
violl
she
had
in
her
hand
,
sayd
:
The
bowne
which
your
Highnesse
hath
granted
vnto
me
is
this
,
and
no
other
thing
,
but
onlie
that
you
drink
vp
this
water
which
I
bring
in
this
viol
,
wherby
your
Highnesse
shal
receiue
no
harme
nor
inconuenience
.
Of
truth
(
sayd
the
Princesse
)
to
doe
this
at
thy
request
is
a
small
recompence
,
to
that
which
they
seruice
doth
deserue
.
And
in
saying
these
wordes
she
tooke
the
violl
of
her
,
and
without
anie
more
circumstance
she
dronke
vp
the
water
,
which
was
not
much
,
she
had
not
so
soone
dronke
it
,
but
straight
waies
she
forgot
her selfe
,
and
remembred
nothing
that
euer
she
had
done
,
the
water
was
of
so
merua●lous
vertue
,
and
brought
from
the
Fountaine
of
forgetfulnesse
,
that
Merlin
made
in
the
highest
part
of
the
mount
Olimpus
,
ther
whereas
neither
winde
nor
weather
doth
trouble
it
,
but
the
aire
is
alwaies
cléere
and
calme
,
of
the
which
we
w●l
declar●
more
at
large
in
the
second
part
of
this
Historie
,
for
that
many
learned
Hystoriographers
doe
saie
,
that
this
meruailous
Fountaine
is
scituated
in
another
place
.
When
this
faire
Princesse
had
forgot
her selfe
,
and
was
●epriued
of
all
remembrance
,
shee
straight
waies
forgot
all
that
was
in
the
Quadrans
,
as
though
she
had
neuer
séene
them
,
and
tooke
the
Quéene
Iulia
by
the
hand
,
and
went
with
her
to
the
Christaline
Coch
,
and
going
into
it
,
they
sate
themselues
downe
in
the
two
Chaires
,
then
straightwaies
the
Quéene
made
the
Dragons
to
mount
into
the
aire
,
for
to
goe
forth
whereas
they
entered
.
The
which
being
séene
of
all
that
noble
crue
,
and
thinking
that
it
was
some
treason
pretended
against
the
Princesse
,
in
great
hast
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
the
worthie
Prince
Meridian
her
brother
,
arose
vp
with
their
swords
drawen
in
their
handes
,
and
went
against
the
Dragons
for
to
take
the
faire
Princesse
out
of
the
Coch
,
yet
were
they
not
able
to
approch
vnto
them
,
for
that
the
Dragons
●lung
their
tailes
about
them
,
in
such
sorte
,
charging
the
two
knightes
with
such
terrible
blowes
,
that
they
made
them
to
recoile
backwards
with
more
spéed
than
they
pressed
forwardes
,
and
before
they
could
recouer
to
assault
them
a
new
,
they
were
out
of
the
windowe
with
the
Coch
,
and
being
out
,
straight
waies
ceased
all
the
tempest
of
thunderings
and
lightnings
,
and
the
cloude
vanished
away
,
so
that
the
daie
was
as
faire
and
as
cleere
as
it
was
before
.
And
as
these
worthie
princes
did
put
them●elues
at
the
windowes
for
to
sée
whether
this
wonderfull
Coch
was
carried
,
they
discouered
in
the
middest
of
the
mightie
Court
a
péece
of
worke
,
the
straungest
to
beholde
that
euer
was
séene
,
which
was
a
great
Tower
foure
square
,
and
of
twentie
paces
broade
euerie
waie
,
cut
out
of
one
stone
,
of
so
great
cléerenesse
&
brightnesse
,
that
it
soomed
to
be
of
Diamonds
,
and
vppon
the
toppe
of
the
Tower
there
was
an
excéeding
faire
steeple
,
which
shined
lyke
vnto
burnished
Stéele
in
the
shining
Sunne
,
and
was
of
so
great
height
,
that
the
toppe
could
scarce
be
discerned
from
the
ground
,
verie
strange
and
the
like
neuer
before
séene
,
which
did
declare
it
to
be
a
thing
neuer
made
by
humane
creatures
,
and
in
all
the
tower
there
was
no
other
window
nor
loope
hole
,
but
onelie
the
doore
the
which
was
open
,
wherein
they
might
discerne
the
staires
,
the
which
was
turning
,
the
steppes
verie
broade
and
of
shining
Christall
,
and
although
there
were
no
wi●dowes
for
to
giue
light
vnto
the
staires
,
yet
was
it
so
lyght
within
by
reason
of
the
brightnesse
of
the
walls
,
that
it
seemed
to
bée
more
brighter
than
abroade
.
There
was
at
the
entrie
of
the
doore
two
Images
of
Brasse
,
as
bigge
as
Gyantes
,
the
one
on
the
one
side
and
the
other
on
the
other
side
,
and
had
in
their
handes
each
of
them
a
greate
Fauchon
of
f●ne
stéele
,
and
had
them
aboue
their
heades
readie
for
to
strike
them
that
shoulde
giue
the
attempt
for
to
enter
in
at
the
doore
,
and
had
so
furious
and
fierce
semblaunce
,
that
they
caused
great
feare
in
all
them
that
did
beholde
them
,
and
aboue
ouer
the
doore
were
written
Letters
,
which
seemed
to
be
of
golde
,
which
afterwardes
were
read
by
those
worthie
Princes
,
who
were
meruailouslie
amazed
in
beholding
that
straunge
and
wonderfull
worke
,
and
looking
for
the
Coch
wherein
the
faire
Princesse
was
carried
,
they
saw
it
of
so
great
height
,
that
it
was
equall
with
the
Clowdes
,
and
within
a
little
while
after
,
in
the
sight
of
them
all
,
the
two
Dragons
descended
downe
out
of
the
aire
,
and
lighted
vppon
the
T●wer
,
who
ioyntlie
with
the
Coch
consumed
into
the
Tower
,
and
could
not
anie
more
bée
séene
.
Whereat
all
that
were
there
present
meruailed
greatlie
,
and
for
that
they
knew
not
what
it
should
meane
,
they
requested
the
two
wise
men
Lyrgandeo
and
Artemidoro
to
tell
them
,
who
answered
them
to
nothing
,
but
said
:
Let
vs
go
&
reade
the
writings
that
are
vpon
the
gates
,
and
then
afterwardes
they
wold
declare
vnto
them
the
whole
circumstance
of
that
remaineth
.
Then
straightwaies
the
two
Emperours
with
those
worthie
Princes
and
knights
,
descended
out
of
the
pallace
into
the
Court
,
&
when
they
came
vnto
the
gates
of
the
tower
,
they
saw
in
thrée
parts
written
in
Gréeke
letters
,
on
each
side
one
,
and
in
the
middest
the
third
,
which
was
as
followeth
.
The
first
sayd
.
This
is
the
disloiall
tower
,
into
the
which
,
let
none
attempt
the
entrie
,
except
his
heart
be
voide
of
all
loue
,
for
if
he
doe
,
you
shall
vnderstand
that
the
first
Porters
will
defend
the
entrie
.
The
second
sayd
.
Heere
within
is
the
precious
Princesse
of
the
Scitas
,
who
aboue
all
other
Ladies
in
her
time
doth
deserue
to
bee
Ladie
of
this
tower
,
&
shall
not
goe
forth
of
the
●ame
till
such
time
as
commeth
a
knight
,
who
with
his
great
force
and
strength
shal
conquere
the
entrie
,
and
mount
into
the
tower
,
and
conclude
this
aduenture
.
And
the
third
said
.
He
had
neede
of
great
force
and
strength
that
is
able
to
comprehend
to
see
the
great
meruailes
of
this
tower
.
When
that
these
writinges
were
read
,
they
were
all
greatlie
amazed
,
but
the
wise
Lyrgandeo
séeing
them
in
that
dumpe
,
said
.
My
Lordes
,
héere
is
nothing
to
be
mused
at
,
but
if
it
bée
your
pleasures
that
the
faire
Princesse
Lyndabrides
shall
come
forth
of
this
tower
,
it
is
conuenient
that
you
proue
this
aduenture
,
for
it
is
a
thing
without
remedie
and
not
to
be
spoken
off
,
that
she
shall
not
come
forth
héereof
till
such
time
as
all
things
bée
accomplished
according
as
these
writings
haue
declared
,
and
héere
I
doe
saie
vnto
you
,
that
so
farre
as
I
doe
(
or
can
)
vnders●and
by
this
aduenture
,
that
long
time
shall
passe
before
anie
shall
come
for
to
finish
the
same
,
although
on
the
part
of
the
Princesse
there
shall
no
time
bée
lost
,
for
that
shée
shall
goe
forth
out
of
the
Tower
according
vnto
nature
,
of
the
same
age
that
shée
is
now
of
,
although
shée
remaineth
there
one
hundreth
yéeres
,
and
in
all
this
time
shée
shall
not
want
anie
thing
,
but
of
all
ioy
,
pleasure
,
and
pastime
,
shée
shall
haue
vnto
her
contentment
,
for
that
the
Quéene
Iulia
,
(
knowing
what
should
happen
and
come
to
passe
héereafter
)
for
the
good
will
and
seruice
that
shée
dyd
owe
vnto
the
Princesse
her
Ladie
and
mistres
,
dyd
ordaine
this
aduenture
,
the
which
will
fall
out
more
for
her
honour
and
glorie
.
But
when
the
wise
man
had
concluded
his
wordes
,
it
grieued
much
the
Emperour
Alycandro
,
for
that
hée
loued
the
Princesse
verie
much
,
and
doubted
whether
he
shoulde
liue
so
long
as
to
sée
the
deliuerie
of
his
Daughter
.
The
like
care
receiued
the
valiant
and
worthie
Prince
Meridian
her
Brother
.
The
like
griefe
receiued
all
the
rest
of
the
whole
crue
that
were
there
present
,
for
that
they
loued
her
verie
much
for
her
great
valour
and
desert
,
but
in
especiall
it
grieued
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
,
as
of
one
that
to
forget
her
néeded
the
processe
of
a
long
time
,
yea
,
and
the
trauaile
vnto
the
mount
Olympus
,
and
if
it
had
not
béene
that
there
was
in
his
presence
his
welbeloued
and
royall
Princesse
Claridiana
,
hée
would
haue
detracted
no
time
,
but
haue
béene
the
first
to
haue
giuen
the
attempt
to
proue
that
aduenture
of
the
Tower
,
but
for
that
hée
woulde
not
giue
anie
suspition
of
that
which
he
felt
in
his
heart
,
he
brideled
his
affection
and
desire
,
till
time
some
other
knights
went
and
armed
themselues
,
and
proued
the
entrie
of
the
Tower
,
as
shall
bée
declared
vnto
you
in
the
next
Chapter
following
.
How
the
valiant
and
worthie
Princes
did
proue
the
aduenture
of
the
disloiall
tower
,
and
what
happened
of
the
successe
thereof
,
Chapter
.
49.
WHen
the
knightes
beganne
to
come
forth
armed
for
to
proue
that
aduenture
of
the
disloiall
Tower
,
straight
waies
the
Emperor
Trebatio
,
and
all
those
high
Princes
and
knightes
,
went
&
put
themselues
at
the
windowes
of
that
mightie
pallace
.
The
lyke
did
the
Empresse
Briana
,
with
the
rest
of
those
principall
Ladies
and
Damselles
,
for
to
sée
what
should
be
done
with
those
knights
in
the
attempt
of
the
tower
.
The
first
knight
that
came
into
that
Court
,
was
that
valiant
and
worthie
Prince
Lyriamandro
,
brother
vnto
the
Empresse
●riana
,
who
was
armed
with
guilt
armour
set
full
of
rich
stones
,
and
alighting
from
his
horse
,
with
his
sworde
drawen
in
his
hand
he
went
towardes
the
gate
of
the
tower
,
without
receiuing
anie
feare
or
dreade
at
the
furious
and
fierce
countenaunce
of
the
two
Gyantes
,
but
as
one
whose
amorous
effects
towardes
the
faire
Princesse
Rodasilua
dyd
make
him
more
couragious
and
bolde
.
But
yet
nothing
might
bée
more
contrarie
vnto
him
,
as
now
it
happened
,
than
for
to
see
the
secretes
of
this
faire
Tower
,
for
that
as
he
woulde
haue
put
his
foote
vppon
the
thresholde
,
before
he
was
within
,
one
of
these
Images
discharged
vppon
him
a
terrible
blowe
,
with
such
force
,
that
it
astonied
him
,
and
ouerthrew
him
to
the
ground
without
the
gate
,
that
he
seemed
to
be
dead
.
Whereat
they
all
meruailed
greatlie
,
as
well
at
the
mightie
blowe
which
the
Gyant
stroke
,
as
to
see
the
Prince
in
that
perplexitie
,
but
quicklie
their
feare
that
they
hadde
of
the
Prince
was
quieted
,
for
that
so
some
as
they
had
pulled
off
his
healme
;
and
gaue
him
aire
,
he
came
againe
vnto
himselfe
,
and
was
as
well
as
he
was
before
,
but
hauing
no
will
to
approue
the
attempt
anie
more
,
he
withdrew
himselfe
.
It
was
not
long
after
when
that
his
good
friend
Bargandel
came
forth
into
the
place
,
who
as
one
that
loued
with
all
his
heart
the
faire
Princesse
Rodasilua
,
did
no
more
in
that
a●tempt
than
the
prince
Li●iamandro
,
for
that
at
the
first
blow
of
the
Image
,
he
was
ouerthrowen
to
the
ground
,
without
the
gate
,
so
that
it
was
verie
wel
vnderstood
by
them
all
(
according
vnto
the
letters
that
was
written
,
)
how
that
these
two
knights
were
amorous
,
which
was
the
occasion
that
the
enterie
of
the
Gate
was
denied
vnto
them
.
The
like
happned
vnto
the
worthie
Tartarian
Zoilo
,
and
vnto
the
valiant
king
Sacridoro
,
and
vnto
other
valiant
princes
and
knights
that
presumed
to
be
amorous
.
Whereat
they
were
greatlie
amazed
,
and
had
much
sport
and
pastime
to
sée
how
these
knights
were
ouerthrowen
by
the
two
Images
.
The
first
vnto
whom
was
granted
the
entrie
of
the
disloiall
tower
,
was
vnto
the
stout
knight
Flamides
,
vnkle
vnto
the
princesse
Lindaraza
,
who
being
cléere
of
such
passions
,
and
neuer
subiect
vnto
loue
,
went
vnto
the
gate
,
and
entered
in
thereat
,
without
receiuing
anie
harme
of
the
Gyants
(
as
the
other
did
)
but
the
Images
did
rather
humble
themselues
in
declining
their
heads
,
whereat
they
all
meruailed
greatlie
,
but
although
there
was
no
defence
made
against
him
at
the
entrie
of
the
gate
,
yet
there
lacked
not
them
that
made
resistance
against
him
for
the
going
vp
the
staires
,
for
that
so
soone
as
hée
put
his
foote
vppon
the
first
step
of
the
Christall
staires
,
verie
sodainlie
hée
felt
himselfe
charged
with
many
thicke
and
strong
blowes
,
that
it
séemed
he
had
twentie
knightes
vppon
him
.
But
by
reason
that
hée
was
valiant
and
of
great
courage
,
hée
drew
out
his
swoorde
,
and
going
vp
the
staires
hée
laide
about
him
on
euerie
side
,
striking
such
terrible
blowes
that
it
was
a
gallant
thing
to
beholde
,
and
by
his
mightie
prowesse
he
dyd
winne
parte
of
the
staires
,
although
that
euerie
step
he
ascended
,
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
the
resistance
did
double
,
as
truth
it
was
,
for
as
he
mounted
,
so
much
more
did
the
thicke
&
strong
blowes
ouercharge
him
.
After
this
sort
when
that
he
had
ascended
ten
staires
,
not
béeing
able
for
to
suffer
the
mortall
furie
of
those
vnreasonable
blowes
,
waxing
faint
,
and
his
strength
failing
him
,
hée
came
tumbling
downe
the
staires
,
and
as
one
dead
was
throwen
out
at
the
gate
,
but
his
shéeld
remained
behinde
,
&
was
hanged
vp
at
the
tenth
staire
,
which
was
so
farre
as
he
mounted
,
and
vnto
that
place
might
all
men
sée
through
the
walles
all
that
was
within
,
so
cléerelie
,
as
though
they
had
béene
of
Christall
,
and
there
was
nothing
to
hinder
their
sight
,
and
so
was
all
the
whole
staires
afterwardes
so
farre
as
anie
knight
did
ascend
,
and
all
that
did
beholde
the
same
,
receiued
great
contentment
,
and
were
wonderfullie
amazed
thereat
,
for
that
it
was
the
strangest
that
euer
they
had
séene
.
Then
straight
waies
came
into
that
mightie
Court
,
the
two
valiant
and
worthie
knights
,
Don
Claros
and
Arcalus
,
being
armed
with
their
bright
and
rich
armour
,
and
for
that
they
were
two
knights
of
a
gallant
〈◊〉
gentle
disposition
,
they
gaue
great
contentment
vnto
all
them
that
dyd
behold
them
.
But
the
first
that
gaue
the
attempt
vnto
this
aduenture
,
was
Don
Claros
,
who
alighting
from
his
horse
,
with
his
sword
drawen
in
his
hand
,
went
towards
the
gates
of
the
tower
,
and
for
that
he
was
voyde
of
loue
,
and
had
not
his
heart
troubled
with
any
amorous
passions
,
he
entred
with
in
the
gate
,
and
the
Images
dyd
bow
themselues
vnto
him
,
but
when
he
came
vnto
the
staiers
and
began
to
ascend
,
he
felt
himselfe
charged
with
many
&
terrible
blowes
,
yet
for
all
that
defending
himselfe
and
laying
about
him
on
euery
side
,
he
ascended
vp
the
staires
,
and
although
the
resistance
was
great
,
and
the
blowes
encreased
(
at
euerie
step
he
ascended
)
double
,
yet
for
that
he
was
young
,
valiant
,
and
of
a
good
courage
,
and
in
spight
of
them
that
did
defend
him
,
he
mounted
fiftene
staires
,
the
which
being
séene
of
all
that
were
in
the
court
,
they
gaue
him
great
praise
,
and
saide
,
(
as
they
hadde
great
reason
)
that
he
was
one
of
the
valiantest
knights
in
his
time
.
And
as
he
dyd
pursue
and
striue
for
to
ascend
higher
,
the
resistance
was
so
strong
,
that
spight
of
his
heart
he
was
forced
to
defend
two
staires
of
that
which
he
had
got
,
he
procured
all
that
euer
he
could
to
get
them
againe
,
but
it
dyd
profit
him
little
,
whereby
it
was
conuenient
for
to
leaue
the
demaund
,
and
depart
out
of
the
Tower
,
leauing
his
shilde
at
the
fiftenth
stayre
,
so
farre
as
he
assended
.
Then
straightwaies
his
brother
Arcalus
,
entred
in
the
demaund
,
and
to
conclude
,
he
dyd
very
well
,
and
with
great
trauaile
he
ascended
so
high
as
his
brother
Don
Cla●os
did
,
but
in
the
ende
he
was
ouerthrowen
downe
the
staires
,
and
his
shielde
remained
and
was
hanged
next
vnto
his
brothers
,
in
the
same
place
.
Not
long
after
came
〈◊〉
that
mightie
court
,
two
knights
,
who
by
their
gallant
disposition
and
rich
armour
,
were
knowen
to
be
the
two
Princes
,
Brandizel
and
Cl●uerindo
,
who
came
for
to
proue
the
aduenture
of
the
Tower
.
But
straight
waies
as
they
would
haue
put
their
desire
in
execucion
,
it
did
little
profit
them
all
that
euer
they
could
doe
,
by
reason
that
the
one
was
in
loue
with
the
Princesse
〈◊〉
,
and
the
other
with
the
faire
Lindaraza
,
so
that
with
two
blowes
that
was
strooke
at
them
,
they
were
both
ouerthrowen
to
the
earth
without
any
remembrance
,
and
therefore
they
retourned
into
the
pallas
,
somewhat
abashed
,
and
vnderstòode
very
well
the
secret
of
the
disloyall
tower
.
Then
the
last
that
came
foorth
that
day
,
was
the
valiant
●royan
the
stout
Orist●des
,
who
by
the
iudgement
of
all
that
were
there
,
should
by
force
of
armes
make
a
conquest
of
the
stayres
,
and
assend
vnto
the
●oppe
:
for
that
as
this
Historie
hath
told
you
,
he
was
one
of
the
best
knights
in
all
the
world
,
and
dyd
well
apeare
in
him
the
worthie
stocke
from
whence
he
dyd
proceede
,
who
being
alighted
from
his
horse
,
with
his
swoord
in
his
hande
,
went
towards
the
gate
of
the
Tower
.
And
for
that
he
ne●er
knew
what
loue
ment
,
the
porters
dyd
let
him
go
in
,
doing
their
reuerence
.
And
when
he
was
within
,
he
straight
waies
went
vp
,
the
staires
with
so
great
lightnesse
,
as
though
there
had
bene
made
no
resistance
against
him
,
but
when
that
he
had
assendid
so
high
and
came
vnto
the
place
whereas
the
other
knights
had
bene
,
he
was
put
in
great
trouble
and
care
,
for
that
he
thought
all
the
whole
world
had
bene
against
him
,
the
blowes
were
so
manie
and
strong
where
with
he
was
charged
.
But
this
valiant
and
couragious
Troyan
seeing
himselfe
in
the
presence
of
so
high
princes
,
forced
himselfe
all
that
was
possible
,
and
ascended
more
higher
,
laying
about
him
on
euery
side
,
and
it
séemed
vnto
him
that
he
stroke
his
blowes
vpon
armed
knights
,
so
that
all
that
euer
he
dyd
was
for
to
get
vnto
the
toppe
of
the
stayres
.
And
although
they
that
were
without
dyd
sée
but
Oristedes
alone
,
yet
dyd
they
heare
the
noyse
of
the
great
battaile
,
whose
thicke
and
mightie
blowes
dyd
resound
thoroughout
all
that
mightie
pallas
,
as
though
a
thousand
knights
hadde
combatted
together
:
in
this
contempt
was
Oristedes
,
and
they
were
all
greatly
amazed
how
he
could
fer
so
great
trauaile
,
and
thought
verely
that
he
would
conclude
and
make
an
ende
of
that
aduenture
.
But
it
fel
out
otherwise
,
for
that
before
he
came
vnto
the
top
of
the
staires
by
foure
steppes
,
the
blowes
were
so
many
wherewith
hée
was
charged
,
that
he
was
constrained
of
verie
force
to
lose
two
steppes
of
those
which
he
had
gotten
,
and
neuer
after
could
recouer
them
againe
,
but
in
the
ende
he
tombled
down
the
staires
cleane
out
of
all
remembrance
,
and
was
thrown
out
of
the
gate
,
but
his
shielde
remained
and
was
hanged
aboue
all
the
rest
.
But
when
that
he
was
come
againe
vnto
him selfe
,
he
was
very
sorowfull
,
for
that
he
could
not
conquere
the
whole
stayres
,
of
the
Tower
.
At
this
time
it
waxed
late
,
and
night
drew
on
,
so
that
for
that
daye
it
was
conuenient
for
to
giue
ouer
the
〈◊〉
of
that
aduenture
,
so
they
went
al
and
vnarmed
themsel●s
,
and
the
Emperour
Trebatio
with
all
those
high
Princes
,
dyd
suppe
together
in
the
royall
pallas
,
hauing
enough
to
occupie
themselues
in
talke
of
the
strange
aduenture
of
the
Tower
,
and
according
vnto
the
condicions
of
the
same
,
they
thought
verely
that
there
was
very
few
to
whom
was
graunted
the
ascending
to
the
toppe
of
those
staires
,
for
that
so
worthie
knights
as
there
was
receiued
the
repulse
,
for
the
which
the
Emperour
Alycandro
dyd
not
lette
but
receiue
some
griefe
,
for
that
of
necessitie
he
must
be
constrained
to
leaue
there
his
worthie
and
welbeloued
daughter
Lindabrides
,
yet
dyd
he
comfort
himselfe
verie
much
,
in
that
she
was
there
in
great
securitie
,
and
also
of
the
words
which
the
wise
Lirgandeo
had
tolde
him
(
not
long
before
)
of
her
deliuerie
.
The
night
being
past
,
the
nexte
daye
in
the
morning
came
foorth
the
stout
and
strong
king
Brandimardo
,
for
to
proue
the
aduenture
of
the
Tower
,
and
dyd
so
much
that
he
lacked
but
two
steppes
for
to
conquere
the
toppe
of
the
stayres
,
and
for
that
he
was
mightie
boned
,
bigge
and
verie
fatte
and
heauie
,
when
that
he
came
thether
he
was
with
his
great
trauaile
(
for
want
of
exercise
)
so
wearie
and
faint
,
that
hée
could
not
goe
anie
whit
farther
at
all
but
was
constrained
to
〈◊〉
backe
againe
,
so
that
hée
was
thrust
out
at
the
gate
,
but
his
shield
remained
aboue
all
the
rest
,
with
great
honour
,
as
to
him
(
that
next
vnto
Bramarant
)
was
the
most
strongest
Pagan
that
was
in
all
the
Pagan
countri●
.
At
this
time
,
the
two
bretheren
,
the
knight
of
the
Sunne
and
Rosicleer
would
not
proue
the
aduenture
,
for
knowing
the
condition
of
the
disloyal
Tower
,
they
were
f●lly
〈◊〉
that
the
entrie
should
be
defended
vnto
them
,
by
the
Images
that
kept
the
gate
,
yet
for
all
that
in
the
meane
time
that
all
those
high
Princes
were
〈◊〉
together
,
there
were
many
knights
that
dyd
〈…〉
aduenture
,
of
whome
for
that
they
were
not
so
●rincipall
as
the
other
,
this
Historie
doth
make
no

Trebatio
with

Chap.

ALL
the
care
which
the
Emperour
Trebatio
had
was
,
that
all
those
high
Princes
and
worthie
knights
that
were
in
his
Courte
,
should
be
well
serued
,
and
haue
great
contentment
,
for

(
as
this
Historie
hath
tolde
you
)
he
had
the
vauntage
of
all
other
that
was
in
his
time
:
&
as
he
dyd
alwaies
procure
to
séeke
out
newe
inuentions
and
pastimes
for
to
giue
them
pleasure
and
contentment
,
he
determined
one
daye
for
to
carie
the●
a
hunting
into
the
wildernesse
of
Grecia
,
alongst
the
Sea
side
,
and

their
companie

Empresse
Briana
,
and
all
the
rest
of

worthie
Ladies
and
Damsells
,
for

place
was
gallant
,
fresh
and
delightfull
,
&
great
store
of
game
,
of
Bear●s
,
Déere
,
and
other
wilde
beastes
.
He
being
fully
determined
,

to
vnderstand
ther●f
,
who
when
they
heard
it
,
they
all
receiued
great
pleasure
