There did I see this valiant Lamb of Mars, This sprig of honour, this unbearded John, This veteran in green years, this sprout, this Woodvil, With dreadless ease, guiding a fire-hot steed Which seem'd to scorn the manage of a boy, Prick forth with such an ease into the field

A dreadless heart delights in such decrees.

Whilom there was a palace builded strong For war within our court, where dreadless peace Hath planted now a weaker entrance.
