Their frayle amazed senses did confound:

In liuing Princes court none euer knew

Such endlesse richesse, and so sumptuous[135] shew;

Ne Persia selfe, the nourse of pompous pride

Like euer saw. And there a noble crew

Of Lordes and Ladies stood on euery side,

Which with their presence faire, the place much beautifide.

High aboue all a cloth of State was spred, viii

And a rich throne, as bright as sunny day,

On which there sate most braue embellished
