But he that lou'd the youngest, was Sans-loy,
2 He that faire Vna late fowle outraged,
The most vnruly, and the boldest boy,

And to all lawlesse lust encouraged,
6 Through strong opinion of his matchlesse might:
Ne ought he car'd, whom he endamaged
8 By tortious wrong, or whom bereau'd of right.
He now this Ladies champion chose for loue to fight.
