Help was at Hand; they rear'd him from the Ground, And from his cumbrous Arms his Limbs unbound; Then lanc'd a Vein, and watch'd returning Breath; It came, but clogg'd with Symptoms of his Death. 710 The Saddle-bow the Noble Parts had prest, All bruis'd and mortifi'd his Manly Breast. Him still entrance, and in a Litter laid, They bore from Field, and to his Bed con vey'd. At length he wak'd; and, with a feeble Cry, The Word he first pronounc'd was Emily. Mean time the King, though inwardly he mourn'd, In Pomp triumphant to the Town return'd, Attended by the Chiefs who fought the Field, (Now friendly mix'd, and in one Troop compell'd;) 720 Compos'd bis Looks to counterfeited Cheer, And bade them not for Arcite's Life to fear. But that which gladded all the Warriour Train, Though most were sorely wounded, none were slain. The Surgeons soon despoil'd 'em of their Arms, And some with Salves they cure, and some with Charms; Foment the Bruises, and the Pains asswage And heal their inward Hurts with Sov'reign Draughts of Sage. The King in Person visits all around, 729 Comforts the Sick, congratulates the Sound; Honours the Princely Chiefs, rewards the rest, And holds for thrice three Days a Royal Feast. None was disgrac'd; for Falling is no Shame; And Cowardice alone is Loss of Fame. The vent'rous Knight is from the Saddle thrown, But 'tis the Fault of Fortune, not his own. If Crowds and Palms the conqu'ring Side adorn, The Victor under better Stars was born: The brave Man seeks not popular Applause, Nor overpower'd with Arms, deserts his Cause; 740 Unsham'd, though foil'd, he does the best he can; Force is of Brutes, but Honour is of Man. Thus Theseus smil'd on all wit...
