This Ironside tooke hold, and sodainly

Hurled mee, by judgment of the standers by,

Some twelve foote by the square; takes mee againe,

Out-throwes it halfe a bar; and thus wee twaine

At this hot exercise an hower had spent,

Hee the feirce agent, I the instrument.

My man began to rage, but I cry’d, Peace,

When he is dry or hungry he will cease:

Hold, for the Lords sake, Nicholas, lest they take us,

And use us worse then Hercules us’d Cacus.
