affray > terrify (cf. the similar passage describing the powers of Merlin himself at 303.12)
5 For so exceeding shone his glistering ray, 6 That Phoebus' golden face it did attaint,
attaint > dishonour; sully; hence: obscure
7 As when a cloud his beams does overlay; 8 And silver Cynthia waxed pale and faint,
waxed > grew, became
9 As when her face is stained with magic arts' constraint.
constraint > affliction, oppression (cf. 706.16, Met. 7.207-8, PL 2.665)
107.35
No magicke arts hereof had any might,
2 Nor bloudie wordes of bold Enchaunters call,
But all that was not such, as seemd in sight,
4 Before that shield did fade, and suddeine fall:
And when him list the raskall routes appall,
6 Men into stones therewith he could transmew,
And stones to dust, and dust to nought at all;
8 And when him list the prouder lookes subdew,
He would them gazing blind, or turne to other hew.
