Excerpt from The Aldine Edition of the British Poets, Vol. 4 of 5 So soone as day forth dawning from the East Nights humid curtaine from the heavens withdrew, And early calling forth both man and beast Comaunded them their daily workes renew, These noble warriors, mindefull to pursew The last daies purpose of their vowed fight, Them selves thereto preparde in order dew The Knight, as best was seeming for a Knight, And th' Amazon, as best it likt her selfe to dight. All in a Camis light of puple silke Woven uppon with silver, subtly wrought, And quilted uppon sattin white as milke; Trayled with ribbands diversly distraught, Like as the workeman had their courses taught; Which was short tucked for light motion Up to her ham; but, when she list, it raught Downe to her lowest heele; and thereuppon She wore for her defence a mayled habergeon.
