[16], Ye bought.
[22]. Newcastle C. B., and hay.
[41], 42.
Shall I venture my body in field to fight
With a man that's faith and troth to me?
N. C. B.
[107]-118. Instead of this passage, the Newcastle copy has the following stanzas:—
He flang his cloak from off his shoulders,
His psalm-book from his pouch flang he,
He clapped his hand upon the hedge,
And o'er lap he right wantonly.
When Graham did see his bully come,
The salt tears stood long in his ee;
"Now needs must I say thou art a man,
That dare venture thy body to fight with me.
"Nay, I have a harness on my back;
I know that thou hast none on thine;
But as little as thou hast on thy back,
As little shall there be on mine."
He flang his jacket from off his back,
His cap of steel from his head flang he;
He's taken his spear into his hand,
He's ty'd his horse unto a tree.
