or

The Algreve [7] he his bugle wound The long night all— The Queen in bower heard the sound, I’m passion’s thrall.

The Queen her little page address’d, The long night all— “To come to me the Greve request,”  I’m passion’s thrall.

p. 8He came, before the board stood he, The long night all— “Wherefore, O Queen, has sent for me?”  I’m passion’s thrall.
