第3683章 CLXXVII

A hundred men had past before the rest, All taken from the poorest of the town;

And in one fashion equally were drest Those beadsmen all, in black and trailing gown.

A hundred pages followed them, who prest A hundred puissant steeds, for warfare bown;

And by those pages backed, the portly steeds Went, sweeping wide the ground with sable weeds.
