第1513章 LXXIV

"I was not, as I knew, in following slow Both to behold thee, and to prove thy might;

And by the surcoat o'er thine arms I know, (Instructed of thy vest) thou art the knight:

And if such cognizance thou didst not show, And, 'mid a hundred, wert concealed from sight, For what thou art thou plainly wouldst appear, Thy worth conspicuous in thy haughty cheer."
