And one said "Eat in peace! a liar is he,
And hates thee for the tribute!" this good knight

In sweet humility; had failed in all;

Left in the quarry; but she still were loth,
She still were loth to yield herself to one
That wholly scorned to help their equal rights
Against the sons of men, and barbarous laws.
She prayed me not to judge their cause from her
