To other Tremizen he posts, where bred

  As well the people are in Mahound's style;

  For other Aethiops then his pinions spread,

  Which face the first, and lie beyond the Nile.

  Between Coallee and Dobada sped,

  Bound for the Nubian city's royal pile;

  Threading the two, where, ranged on either land,

  Moslems and Christians watch, with arms in hand.
