"With such fierce arms thou ill didst her assail, If to behold a brave defence thou sought.
Knowst thou not, against gold of no avail Is stone, or steel to hardest temper wrought?
Meseems that thou in tempting her didst fail More than herself, that was so quickly caught.
I know not, had she tempted thee as much, If thou, thyself, hadst better stood the touch."
