And euer as she went, her tongue did walke
2 In foule reproch, and termes of vile despight,
Prouoking him by her outrageous talke,
4 To heape more vengeance on that wretched wight;
Sometimes she raught him stones, wherwith to smite,
6 Sometimes her staffe, though it her one leg were,
Withouten which she could not go vpright;
8 Ne any euill meanes she did forbeare,
That might him moue to wrath, and indignation reare.

1 And ever as she went her tongue did walk

walk > move, remain in motion
