Now by my life (sayd he) and God to guide,
None other way will I this day betake,
But by that Bridge, whereas he doth abide:
Therefore me thither lead. No more he spake,
But thitherward forthright his ready way did make.
Vnto the place he came within a while, xi
Where on the Bridge he ready armed saw
The Sarazin, awayting for some spoile.
Who[257] as they to the passage gan to draw,
A villaine to them came with scull all raw,
