A thousand monstrous formes therein were made,
Such as false loue doth oft vpon him weare,[1160]
For loue in thousand monstrous formes doth oft appeare.
And all about, the glistring walles were hong lii
With warlike spoiles, and with victorious prayes,
Of mighty Conquerours and Captaines strong,
Which were whilome captiued in their dayes
To cruell loue, and wrought their owne decayes:
Their swerds[1161] and speres were broke, and hauberques rent;
And their proud girlonds of tryumphant bayes
