To find him forth: and after her are gone

All the braue knights, that doen in armes excell,

To sauegard her, ywandred all alone;

Emongst the rest my lot (vnworthy[1063]) is to be one.

Ah gentle knight (said then Sir Satyrane) xlvii

Thy labour all is lost, I greatly dread,

That hast a thanklesse seruice on thee ta’ne,

And offrest sacrifice vnto the dead:

For dead, I surely doubt, thou maist aread

Henceforth for euer Florimell to be,
