But that she had two faces in one hode;

Yet I kneled adowne and made mine oryson,

To doughty Mars, wyth grete devocyon.

Sayenge: O Mars! O god of the warre!

The gentyll lodesterre of an hardy herte,

Dystyll adowne thy grace from so farre

To cause all fere from me to astert:

That in the felde I may ryght well subverte

The hedyus monsters, and winne the victory

Of the sturdy giauntes with famous chyvalry.
