Tho wexing weary of that toylesome paine,

In trauelling on foote so long a space,

Not wont on foote with heauy armes to trace,

Downe in a dale forby a riuers syde,

He chaunst to spie a faire and stately place,

To which he meant his weary steps to guyde,

In hope there for his loue some succour to prouyde.

But comming to the riuers side, he found xxx

That hardly passable on foote it was:

Therefore there still he stood as in a stound,
