Line 2210
Þai turned hem anon riȝt,

Al togider þai gun smite;
Semblant [Slemblant MS.] of loue þai kidde bot lite.
Heteliche to him smot Gyoun;
Line 2215
His scheld nas nouȝt worþ a botoun,
No his tvifold armes halp him nouȝt
Þat in Loreyn weren y-wrouȝt.

On helmes & on briȝt scheldes;
Line 2220
So hard þai striken hem bitvene,
Þat gode stones fallen þer ben.
Aiþer semed a lyoun of mode,
So hard þai smiten wiþ swordes gode.
Wiþ him smot þe douke Segyn,
Line 2225
No lenge miȝt he wiþhelden him;
Togider þai smiten hard and wel
Wiþ brondes wele wrouȝt of stiel.
