Tho stooping downe she him amoued light;
2 Who therewith somewhat starting, vp gan looke,
And seeing him behind a straunger knight,
4 Whereas no liuing creature he mistooke,
With great indignaunce he that sight forsooke,
6 And downe againe himselfe disdainefully
+Abiecting,+ th'earth with his faire forhead strooke:
8 Which the bold Virgin seeing, gan apply
Fit medcine to his griefe, and spake thus courtesly.
