Of courage both so good that neyther boasting feares,[833]
[And either bad the other come and dar’de him for his ears.]

The one hight Irenglas, of kinred to the king,
A worthie wight in warre, and prudent, wise, and sage:

The British warre full well, and serued as they ought,
Till time at home the prayse of triumphes vaine they sought,
