I think I need not fear him for't;

These rallying devils do not hurt.

With that he roused his drooping heart,

And hastily cry'd out, What art?—

A wretch, quoth he, whom want of grace

Has brought to this unhappy place.

I do believe thee, quoth the knight;

Thus far I'm sure thou'rt in the right,

And know what 'tis that troubles thee,

Better than thou hast guess'd of me.
