    That woman’s days were spent
    In ignorant good-will,
    Her nights in argument
    Until her voice grew shrill.

    Knights of the Garter were of noble birth,
    Valiant and virtuous, full of haughty courage.

    The great snake lies ever half awake, at the bottom of the pit of the world, curled
    In folds of himself until he awakens in hunger and moving his head to right and to left prepares for his hour to devour.
