The “Knight’s Tour” verses run as follows:—

Better to die with harness on
In smoke and heat of battle,
Than wander and browse, and fall anon
In quiet of meadow-land cattle.
Better to gain, by arm or brain,
Chaplet of laurel or myrtle,
Than bask in sun, with work undone,
And live one’s life like a turtle,

beginning with “Bet,” and ending in the top left-hand corner.
