Woke victory; again his forces whirled

The hostile troops, and drove them on in rout.

The strength of ten battalions seemed to yield

Before his arm; and so he won that field,

And slew with his own hand the vengeful king,

And with that death-stroke brought the war to end,

Conquering the common foe, and conquering

The hate, from which he would not else defend

His clear renown than with such manful deeds

As fall to faith and valor at their needs.
