“Nor shall men ever say
But she was born right royal; full of sins,
Dyed hand and tongue with bloody stains and black,
Unmerciful, unfaithful, but of heart
So high and fiery, and of spirit so clear,
In extreme danger and pain so lifted up,
So of all violent things inviolable,
So large of courage, so superb of soul,
So sheathed with iron mind invincible
And arms unbreached of fireproof constancy—
