And finds, but finds in vain.

’Gainst the stout Solymi to fight[[10]]

He set the brave Ephyrian knight,

And hoped he might be slain;

But from the stiff embrace of Mars

He soon returned, and showed his scars,

To glad the Xanthian plain.

A Lycian army then he led

Against the maids unhusbanded,

Where surly Pontus roars.
