And at his haughtie helmet making mark,

So hugely stroke[90], that it the steele did riue,

And cleft his head. He tumbling downe aliue,

With bloudy mouth his mother earth did kis,

Greeting his graue: his grudging ghost did striue

With the fraile flesh; at last it flitted is,

Whither[91] the soules do fly of men, that liue amis.

The Lady when she saw her champion fall, xx

Like the old ruines of a broken towre,

Staid not to waile his woefull funerall,
