That the good Cross doth hold its lofty place

Within Valencia still! What see you now?

Her. I see a kingdom’s might upon its path,

Moving, in terrible magnificence,

Unto revenge and victory! With the flash

Of knightly swords, up-springing from the ranks,

As meteors from a still and gloomy deep,

And with the waving of ten thousand plumes,

Like a land’s harvest in the autumn wind,

And with fierce light, which is not of the sun,
