As well she knew, against the foe, who stooping,

Stooped to his death and fell without a groan.

Then quick she doffed her gown for my disguise,

Telling me in few words how this was planned

By friends who had seen me taken: they had not means

For present rescue, but discovering soon

Who had betrayed me, used his cursed name

With the governour of the prison, to admit

Her, his pretended wife, that she might claim

Settlement of some debt before I died.
