His wepen, his clew, his thing that I have said,
Was by the gayler in the hous y-laid
Ther as this Minotaur hath his dwelling,
Right faste by the dore, at his entring.
And Theseus is lad unto his deeth,

And forth un-to this Minotaur he [geeth],
(261)
And by the teching of this Adriane
He overcom this beste, and was his bane;
