14. The Generous speech of a Noble Cavallier, after he had disarmed his adversary at the single Combate.
Though with my Ràper, for the guerdon,Your fault deserveth, I may pierce ye:
Your penitence, in craving pardon
Transpassions my revenge in mercy;
And wils me both to end this present strife,
And give you leave in peace t'enjoy your life.
