" But on the wind The warning voice was lost ; Edward was not in yielding mind, And thrice his breast he cross'd ; He doffed his cap, and loosed his vest, And drew his long ste^l brand, He flung his scabbard to the west, And firmly clenched his hand.
PRINCE EDWARD. 105 Thrice had they crossed each flashing blade, And thrice they struck again, The desperate stroke each foeman made Scattered fire-sparks o'er the plain. Edward, though bold and desperate, Yet stood upon his guard ; Old Montfort str...uck with mortal hate, And pressed his Vantage hard ; Anon, a trumpet's distant sound Came faintly on the gale ; There was a pause, each looked around, And Leicester's cheek turned pale ; Another blast, and louder still, And it seemed to come more nigh : The echoes now were loud and shrill, Whilst from the summit of yon' hill The rolling dust-clouds fly ; The heavy galloping of horse Thundered upon the plain, The mingling clank of an armed force F 3 106 THE ESCAPE OF Made Edward hope again, For as the lingering sunbeams shone On each lance-head and morion, O'er which a banner streamed, By the rich blazoning thereon, 'Twas Mortimer he deemed.
