5 Tho when he felt him dead, adown he cast
Tho > Then adown > down
6 The lumpish corse to the senseless ground;
lumpish > sluggishly inactive; low-spirited corse > body
7 Adown he cast it with so puissant wrest,
so puissant wrest > such a powerful twist
8 That back again it did aloft rebound, 9 And gave against his mother earth a groanful sound.
groanful > groaning, lugubrious, mournful

As when Ioues harnesse-bearing Bird from hie
2 Stoupes at a flying heron with proud disdaine,
The stone-dead quarrey fals so forciblie,
4 That it rebounds against the lowly plaine,
A second fall redoubling backe againe.
6 Then thought the Prince all perill sure was past,
And that he victor onely did remaine;
8 No sooner thought, then that the Carle as fast
Gan heap huge strokes on him, as ere he downe was cast.
