Gold armour from the Lords of Flame,
Wrought for his wearing:
Long sought those

Up Pelion's glen, up Ossa's steep
Forest enchanted,
Where Peleus reared alone, afar,
His lost sea-maiden's child, the star
Of Hellas, and swift help of war

The Nubian king is charged by England's peer,
With sling and arrow so the Moors to gall,
That none upon the works shall dare appear;
And that, protected by the
ceaseless
fall
Of stone and dart, in safety cavalier
And footman may approach the very wall;
Who loaded, some with plank, with rock-stone some,
And some with beam, or weightier burden, come.

LXXVII
"He leaves his native land with this intent,
Nor letteth any his
departure
know;
And coasts, in tears and making sad lament,
The marshes that about his city go:
He his heart's queen, amid his discontent,
Meanwhile forgets not, for this second woe.

But if, as now it seems, your vision rests
With any

On winter afternoons,
That oppresses, like the weight
