from_o i_o who_o be_v then_o so_o weak_a since_o he_o have_v almost_o do_v it_o without_o he_o i_o know_v well_o enough_o that_o wound_n be_v no_o infallible_a mark_n of_o victory_n but_o i_o know_v

through_o he_o some_o such_o circumstance_n must_v be_v see_v or_o else_o those_o who_o do_v accuse_v do_v rather_o justify_v then_o condemn_v but_o here_o in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v quite_o

for_o he_o to_o do_v or_o prove_v then_o furthermore_o though_o he_o dare_v not_o trust_v too_o much_o to_o the_o exploit_n which_o he_o have_v perform_v yet_o he_o dare_v say_v that_o because_o he_o

of_o a_o combat_n doubtless_o the_o number_n of_o combatant_n ought_v to_o be_v equal_a and_o their_o arm_n also_o but_o when_o once_o the_o combat_n be_v begin_v every_o one_o may_v lawful_o take_v

why_o i_o speak_v so_o little_a be_v because_o i_o be_o afraid_a to_o speak_v too_o soon_o especial_o when_o i_o shall_v tell_v you_o that_o i_o love_v you_o in_o such_o a_o fatal_a minute_n as_o

of_o the_o princess_n his_o daughter_n and_o so_o he_o need_v not_o urge_v i_o to_o no_o purpose_n unto_o a_o thing_n which_o i_o can_v do_v for_o the_o most_o certain_a truth_n be_v i_o do_v love_n

of_o the_o ancient_a scythian_n and_o have_v civilise_a we_o more_o than_o the_o rest_n also_o many_o among_o we_o do_v hold_n that_o we_o be_v descend_v from_o the_o grecian_n as_o well_o as_o the_o

know_v whether_o he_o love_v or_o no_o for_o he_o be_v of_o a_o hot_a and_o passionate_a temper_n his_o desire_n be_v so_o many_o violence_n as_o magnificent_a in_o all_o thing_n as_o be_v

who_o he_o have_v never_o see_v since_o their_o last_o difference_n and_o his_o mind_n be_v exasperate_v by_o his_o ill_a fortune_n he_o speak_v something_o unto_o he_o in_o a_o arrogant_a way_n as_o if_o he_o have_v upbraid_v he_o with_o all_o the_o misfortune_n of_o his_o life_n agathyrse_n have_v a_o high_a and_o sensible_a soul_n answer_v he_o in_o the_o like_a upon_o which_o ariante_n without_o any_o reply_n draw_v his_o sword_n and_o fall_v upon_o he_o so_o surious_o that_o agathyrse_n who_o out_o of_o his_o respect_n be_v alight_v from_o his_o horse_n be_v force_v to_o defend_v
