And heare him speak; so Barrisor (advis'd)

Advanc'd his naked rapier twixt both sides,

Ript up the quarrell, and compar'd six lives60

Then laid in ballance with six idle words;

Offer'd remission and contrition too,

Or else that he and D'Ambois might conclude

The others dangers. D'Ambois lik'd the last;

But Barrisors friends (being equally engag'd65

In the maine quarrell) never would expose

His life alone to that they all deserv'd.
