And said, Sir knight, these idle termes forbeare,
2 And sith it is vneath to find his haunt,
Tell me some markes, by which he may appeare,
4 If chaunce I him encounter parauaunt;
For perdie one shall other slay, or daunt:
6 What shape, what shield, what armes, what steed, what sted,
And what so else his person most may vaunt?
8 All which the Redcrosse knight to point ared,
And him in euery +part+ before her fashioned.
