Hur.What dost thou mean? this Ælla's but a man.
Now by my sword, thou art a very berne.
Of late I did thy coward valour scan,
When thou didst boast so much of action derne.

I to the knights on every side will burn,
Telling them all to make their foemen bleed.
Since shame or death on either side will be,
My heart I will upraise, and in the battle slea.
[Exeunt.
