If such be thy desire; and, yet, by being

A little less removed from present men

In figure, thou canst sway them more; for all

Would rise against thee now, as if to hunt

A new-found Mammoth; and their curséd engines,

Their culverins, and so forth, would find way

Through our friend's armour there, with greater ease

Than the Adulterer's arrow through his heel

Which Thetis had forgotten to baptize310

In Styx.
