All use of weapons I foregoe.

"And fare thee well, thou trustye sword,

A better neer had valiant knighte;

With thee full ofte, and many a daye

Have I withstood my foe in fighte.

"With this good fauchion in my hande,

Oft have I reapd the bloody feelde:

But nowe the fatalle houre is come,

That never more I may thee weelde."
