By meanes whereof he hath him lightly ouerborne.

Who with the sudden stroke astonisht sore, vii

Vpon the ground a while in slomber lay;

The whiles his loue away the other bore,

And shewing her, did Paridell vpbray;

Lo sluggish Knight the victors happie pray:

So fortune friends the bold: whom Paridell

Seeing so faire indeede, as he did say,

His hart with secret enuie gan to swell,

And inly grudge at him, that he had sped so well.
