But like strange wight, whom he had seene no where,

Saluting him, gan into speach to fall,

And pitty much his plight, that liu’d like outcast thrall.

But to his speach he aunswered no whit, xliv

But stood still mute, as if he had beene dum,

Ne signe of sence did shew, ne common wit,

As one with griefe and anguishe ouercum,

And vnto euery thing did aunswere mum:

And euer when the Prince vnto him spake,

He louted lowly, as did him becum,
