THE FAMOUS HISTORY OF GUY EARL OF WARWICK.

CHAPTER I.

_The Praise of Guy Earl of Warwick, and how he fell in Love with
Fair Felice._

In the blessed time when Athelstan wore the crown of the English nation,
Sir Guy, Warwick's mirror, and the wonder of all the world, was the
chief hero of the age, who in prowess surpassed all his predecessors,
and the trump of whose fame so loudly sounded, that Jews, Turks, and
Infidels became acquainted with his name.

But as Mars, the God of Battle, was inspired with the beauty of Venus,
so our Guy, by no arms conquered, was conquered by love for Felice the
Fair; whose beauty and virtue were so inestimable, and shone with such
heavenly lustre, that Helen, the pride of all Greece, might seem as a
Black-a-moor compared to her.
