The knight him seeing fly, had no regard
2 Him to poursew, but to the Ladie rode,
And hauing her from Trompart lightly reard,
4 Vpon his Courser set the louely lode,
And with her fled away without abode.

8 And so her selfe did alwaies to him tell;
So made him thinke him selfe in heauen, that was in hell.
