OF ENEADOS. 637
All interchange and ranfonyng, perfay,
In this batale Turnus lies done away.
Now laitly flayand gong Pallas, allace !
That rewthfuU harm, and that myfchews caee,
;■) Felys baith Alcanyus and my faderis goft,
For thai na litill thyng tharby hes loft.
Thus fayand, by the helm hym grippys he
With hys left hand, and faft as he mycht dre
Writh down hys nek, quharin, but mair abaid,
10 Hys bludy brand vp to the liyltis flaid.
Not far thens ftude Hemonydes allane,
Preft onto Phebus and the thrynfald Dyane,
On quhais bed wympillit holy garlandis
With thar pendentis lyke to a mytyr ftandis,
15 Hys habyt as the fcheyn fon lemand lycht.
And all hys armour quhite and burnyft brycht :
Quham Eneas aflalyt myghtyly.
And gan do chays owt throw the feld in by.
That fleand ftummyrryt and to grond went fone :
20 The Troiane prynce down lowtis hym abone.
And with hys brand hym brytnys at devys.
In maner of ane offerand facryfys.
The large fchaddow of Eneas in feild
Dyd haill the ded corps of this preift ourheld.
25 Sereftus fortis vp hys armour gay,
And on hys fchuldris careit hes away.
To hyng as trophe or fyng vidoriall
Tyll Mars the God, quhilk Gradyus is call.
