Stephanus Marcus 13

Stephanus Marcus Book 1 Canto 3 Verses 4 and 5 " Archbishop marries James and me in own cathedral celebrating Day of Saints. With whitish robe and amethystine stone, pent hopes will be released of tied restraints. Then my heart, free of mind's imposed constraints, will soar to highths in rapture only dreamed. And I shall never utter James complaints, for praise of nobles, he is so esteemed. Against God's old commandments laid ne'er he blasphemed." " Your knight's away to Broughton Place this light where mortal danger waits arrayed in lines of Saint's swift chargers forward go and smite. But knight is brave and he'll survive dense pines, for fortitude is nice and intertwines with courage, faith, and perseverance fine. Your knight hath these beyond belief, it shines. This plain assurance I give thee is mine: In lilac time you'll see your knight, that seems you sign."
