So as they gazed after her a while,
2 Lo where a griesly Foster forth did rush,
Breathing out beastly lust her to defile:
4 His tyreling iade he fiercely forth did push,
Through thicke and thin, both ouer banke and bush
6 In hope her to attaine by hooke or crooke,
That from his gorie sides the bloud did gush:
8 Large were his limbes, and terrible his looke,
And in his clownish hand a sharp bore speare he shooke.
1 So as they gazed after her a while, 2 Lo where a grisly foster forth did rush,
grisly > horrible, fearsome foster > forester
3 Breathing out beastly lust, her to defile:
defile > debauch, violate
4 His tireling jade he fiercely forth did push,
tireling > {A tired animal} jade > nag, hack (cf. 211.31:2)
5 Through thick and thin, both over bank and bush 6 In hope her to attain by hook or crook, 7 That from its gory sides the blood did gush:
That > [So that] blood > (Raised by the foster's spurs)
8 Large were his limbs, and terrible his look, 9 And in his clownish hand a sharp boar-spear he shook.
