Of goodly knyghtes armed clere and bryght,

That I sawe there, whiche dyd me well exorte

Armes to haunte with coragyous comforte:

Mynerve me taught my strokes and defence,

That in short space was no resystence

Agaynst my powre and myghty puyssaunce;

To my wylfull herte was nought impossyble,

I bare my selfe so without doubtaunce

My herte made my courage invyncible,

Of whiche the trouthe was soone intellygyble,
