And hath for twelue huge labours high extold,

So many furies and sharpe fits did haunt,

When him the poysoned garment did enchaunt

With Centaures bloud, and bloudie verses charm’d,

As did this knight twelue thousand dolours daunt,

Whom fyrie steele now burnt, that earst him arm’d,

That erst him goodly arm’d, now most of all him harm’d.

Faint, wearie, sore, emboyled, grieued, brent xxviii

With heat, toyle, wounds, armes, smart, and inward fire

That neuer man such mischiefes did torment;
