Subject(s): Love; Passion
Thus was he bound in service for a year
And straight devised expedients to entrap
The prince whose ruffian passion wrought such fear,
And left in many a home a parlous gap.
No longer should that raider domineer,
And wreak his miscreant wrath without mishap!
And oft he turn'd it in his labouring mind
How he might now that prince of spoilers bind.
