And with him went without gaine-saying more.

Not farre away, but little wide by West,

His dwelling was, to which he him addrest;

Where soone arriuing they receiued were

In seemely wise, as them beseemed best:

For he their host them goodly well did cheare,

And talk’t of pleasant things, the night away to weare.

Thus passing th’euening well, till time of rest, xxiii

Then Britomart vnto a bowre was brought;

Where groomes awayted her to haue vndrest.
