About were sette that clerely dyd shyne,

Lyke Dyane clere in her spere celestyne;

And under eche horse there was, ful pryvely,

A great whele made by craftly Geometry,

Wyth many cogges, unto whiche were tyed

Dyvers cordes that in the horses holowe

To every joynte full wonderly applyed;

Whan the wheles wente the horses dyd folowe,

To trotte and galop both even and morowe,

Brekynge theyr speres and coude them dyscharge,
