106.1
AS when a ship, that flyes faire vnder saile,
2 An hidden rocke escaped hath vnwares,
That lay in waite her wrack for to bewaile,
4 The Marriner yet halfe amazed stares
At perill past, and yet +in+ doubt ne dares
6 To ioy at his foole-happie ouersight:
So doubly is distrest twixt ioy and cares
8 The dreadlesse courage of this Elfin knight,
Hauing escapt so sad ensamples in his sight.
