Eftsoones his cruell hand Sir Guyon stayd,
2 Tempring the passion with aduizement slow,
And maistring might on enimy dismayd:
4 For th'equall dye of warre he well did know;
Then to him said, Liue and allegaunce owe,
6 To him that giues thee life and libertie,
And henceforth by this dayes ensample trow,
8 That hasty wroth, and heedlesse hazardrie
Do breede repentaunce late, and lasting infamie.
