616 THE TENTH BUKE
Hap helpis hardy men, be myne avys,
That weil dar tak on hand ftowt interprys.
Thus faid he ; and tharwith in hys thocht
Devyfis quham niaift ganandly he mocht
Led with hym, to refift and meit his fays.
Or quham he fuld not from the fege vprays,
Bot ftyll remane to ferm and clos the town.
The wallys and the trynfchis enveroun.
CAP. VI.
Eneas fra the fchippis landit his q/t,
And Turnus thame affalit at tliefeif cojl.
In the meyn fefTon, the Troiaue Ene
10 Begouth hys folkis from thar fcliippis hie
On bryggis and on plankis fet on land :
Mony abaid the ebbyng of the fand,
Quhill the fwarf fard wallys abak dyd draw.
Than in the fchaldis dyd thai leip on raw ;
15 And fum with ayris into coggis Imall
Etlyt to land. But tho amang thame all
The prynce Tarchon can the fchor behald,
Thar as hym thocht fuldbe na fandis fchald.
- Nor git na land bryft lyppyrryng on the wallys,
20 Bot quhar the flude went ftyll, and calmyt all is
But ftowr or bullyr, mui'mour or movyng ;
Hys ftevynnys thydder fteryng gan the kyng.
