  • First, sturdy March with brows full sternly bent, And arme'  d strongly, rode upon a ram, The same which over Hellespontus swam: Yet in his hand a spade he also hent, And in a bag all sorts of seeds ysame, Which on the earth he strowe'  d as he went, And filled her womb with fruitful hope of nourishment.

    - Edmund Spenser
      The Faerie Queen,'Mutability', canto 7, stanza 32. hent = grasped; ysame = together.
