Ah, folly 'twere to try it !
Yet still more foolish ye who think to fly it !
67 And she, poor soul, perceived that he was changed, Yet nowise could her mind divine the cause.
She felt his foretime love for her estranged.
And scann'd her heart for any seeming flaws — Could he conceive that her sweet faith had ranged, Who only sunn'd herself in his applause?
The world for her one man alone contain'd.
His alienated love the more constrained.
68 But little saw she of her pensive lord.
Whom king and... country call'd from her chaste arms.
Her task to watch and wait, till Time restored That sweet accustom'd tribute to her charms, For surely Victory would crown his sword? — Rich in this thought her bodeful heart she calms.
Poor stricken dove, the worst is yet to come !
Ah, better death than Love's fast-closing doom!
69 Sir Eliduc, now raised to highest trust, And charged with the defences of the realm, Cared Httle for the seals upon him thrust, So that betimes he might his foes o'erwhelm.
One face before him fired the battle's lust, Delay he found in each opposing helm- So that he hew'd about him with fierce zeal, And hapless he who cross'd that trenchant steel!
