Soone after comes the cruell Sarazin,
2 In wouen maile all armed warily,
And sternly lookes at him, who not a pin
4 Does care for looke of liuing creatures eye.
They bring them wines of Greece and Araby,
6 And daintie spices fetcht from furthest Ynd,
To kindle heat of corage priuily:
8 And in the wine a solemne oth they bynd
T'obserue the sacred lawes of armes, that are assynd.
