In haste Duessa from her place arose,

And to him running said, O prowest knight,

That ever Ladie to her love did chose,

Let now abate the terror of your might,

And quench the flame of furious despight,

And bloudie vengeance; lo th' infernall powres,

Covering your foe with cloud of deadly night,

Have borne him hence to Plutoes balefull bowres.
