Stephanus Marcus 21

Stephanus Marcus Book 1 Canto 4 Verses 8 and 9 The liege of grandiose brick manor stay did question Sinefred plain about retreat. "A temporary brief reversal day but know this right, the Leopard I'll mistreat. At day's new light when dreams are most replete with fancies sweet as honeycomb delight, then we'll renew attack and make complete this stringent battle we've began to fight. All Morley's knights will be then scattered into flight." " Whose shield did I afore then see with thee? All blazoned azure seen with golden sign? Methinks that golden sign was Leopard free. What name to knight is so in Morley's line?" " His name's Stephanus Marcus, he is mine. Yet stronger knights than he have seen defeat, and sitting by his armor I will dine. This vanquished knight is name I will delete, then I'll drink nectar sweet, for me a special treat."
