Was hunting then the Libbards and the Beares,

In these wild woods, as was her wonted ioy,

To banish sloth, that oft doth noble mindes annoy.

It so befell, as oft it fals in chace, xxiv

That each of them from other sundred were,

And that same gentle Squire arriu’d in place,

Where this same cursed caytiue did appeare,

Pursuing that faire Lady full of feare,

And now he her quite ouertaken had;

And now he her away with him did beare
