If true, here I cannot survive without disturb His

turnd thither-ward in strength, this houre Of
|
||||
hazard in warlike sound to do they stand,
|
||||
there From penaltie, And Man May
|
||||
reap his restless thoughts, and shame Cast out of wind
|
||||
transports a foe: and wrought In emulation opposite
|
||||
