Stran 112 - Earnestly their minds are fix'd each upon his foe ; Face to face they take their place ; anon the trumpets blow. They stir their horses with the spur, they lay their lances low, They bend their shields before their breasts, their face to the saddle-bow. Earnestly their minds are fix'd each upon his foe.
