pon a great adventure he was bond,That greatest Gloriana[*] to him gave, 20That greatest Glorious Queene of Faerie lond,To winne him worship, and her grace to have,Which of all earthly things he most did crave;And ever as he rode, his hart did earneTo prove his puissance in battell brave 25Upon his foe, and his new force to learne;Upon his foe, a Dragon[*] horrible and stearne.
