LXXIV

  When they by Ulany were certified

  A woman's hand had caused their overthrow,

  Who with a deeper black than pitch had dyed

  Their honour, heretofore so fair of show;

  And more than ten her story testified,

  Where one sufficed — with such o'erwhelming woe

  Were they possest, they with such fury burned,

  They well nigh on themselves their weapons turned.
