And then did flie, the field we christians won.

61.

In fortie yeares before the Saracen

Such losse did not sustaine in Palestine,

Nor in one battell lost so many men:

The towring state of mightie Saladine

In this fight shaken, daily did decline:

That ancient kingdome of the Syrian land

Did fall from him, and was at our command.
