ARGUMENT.
Gryphon finds traiterous Origilla nigh
Damascus city, with Mariano vile.
Slaughtered the Saracens and Christians lie
By thousands and by thousands heaped this while;
And if the Moors outside of Paris die,
Within the Sarzan so destroys each pile,
Such slaughter deals, that greater ill than this
Never before has been exprest, I wiss.
