With dim cri and bloweing,

And houndes also with him berking;

Ac no best thai no nome,

No never he nist whider thai bi come.

And other while he might him se

As a gret ost bi him te,

Wele atourned[119] ten hundred knightes,

Ich y armed to his rightes;

Of cuntenaunce stout and fers,

With mani displaid baners;
