A wrongfull quarrell to maintaine by fight[496];

Yet haue, through prowesse and their braue emprize,

Gotten great worship in this worldes sight.

For greater force there needs to maintaine wrong, then right.

Yet since[497] thy[498] life vnto this Ladie fayre xxxvi

I giuen haue, liue in reproch and scorne;

Ne euer armes, ne euer knighthood dare

Hence to professe: for shame is to adorne

With so braue badges one so basely borne;

But onely breath sith that I did forgiue.
