THE TWO MOORISH KNIGHTS

Upon two mares both strong and fleet,

White as the cygnet's snowy wing,

Beneath Granada's arching gate

Passed Tarfe and Belchite's King.

Like beauty marks the dames they serve;

Like colors at their spear-heads wave;

While Tarfe kneels at Celia's feet,

The King is Dorelice's slave.
