So rnsh'd Earl Douglas in his wrath Thro' yielding crowds, so clear'd his path Thro' men and steeds, thro' arms and blood. Till where Earl Percy fought, he stood. High on his coal-black charger rais'd. Lord Percy o'er the combat gaz'd. Seeking his noble foe in vain ; ' Douglas, come forth !' he cried again, Where lurks he, like a stricken deer r' ' Turn, Percy, turn ; behold him here ; ' Forego thy search the deer is found. ' Lord Percy saw, and leap'd to ground ; Loose thro' the forest ran his... steed; Together, with the lightning's speed, The knights, like angry lions, rush'd Their weapons fell the warm blood gash'd.
46 CHEVY CHASE.
No feign'd advance, no quick recoil. No fence was there, or artful foil. But stiflfly foot to foot they close. And give and take a storm of blows. At once they strike, at once they bend Beneath the griding blades, that rend Tlie polish'd mail, like folds of wax ; Swiftly descends the ponderous axe. Nor, wav'd by Percy's warlike hand. Less fiercely falls the temper'd brand.
