That in a thought scur o'er the fields of corn. Halted on crutphes to them. Bon. O ye powers. What scandals do I suffer ! Car. Yes, Bonduca, I have seen thee run too, and thee, Nenn...ius ; Yea, run apace, both ; then when Penyus, The Roman girl, cut through your armed carts. And drove them headlong on you down the hill : Then when he hunted you like Britain-foxes, More by the scent than sight ; then did I see These valiant and approved men of Britain, Like boding owls, creep into tods of ivy, And hoot their fears to one another nightly.
