Classic Poem

Stout Priamondo, not so strong to strike;
Strong Diamondo, not so stout a knight;
But Triamondo, stout and strong alike.
On Horse would Triamondo choose to fight;
Felt Priamondo best on Foot his force,
And so delighted to maintain his ground;
To Diamondo, equal Foot or Horse ;
With Curtax deep wou'd Diamondo wound;
And Triamondo handled Spear and Shield;
But Curtax, Shield and Spear would Priamondo wield.
