第1658章 LXXXIV

"God haply will provide thee with good aid, To free thee from each churlish deed I fear;

As, when in the dark cavern thou wast stayed, He sent, to rescue thee, Anglante's peer;

So he (grammercy!) succoured thee dismaid At sea, and from the wicked Biscayneer.

And, if thou must choose death, in place of worse, Then only choose it, as a lesser curse."
