And Paridell and Druon fiercely laid

At Scudamour, both his professed fone.

Foure charged two, and two surcharged one;

Yet did those two them selues so brauely beare,

That the other[163] litle gained by the lone,

But with their owne repayed[164] duely weare,

To speake to them, and some emparlance moue;

But they for nought their cruell hands would stay,
