When the dragon awoke, the strife was renewed there; He snuffed long the stone then, stout hearted found he 78 The footprint of foeman; too far had he gone With cunning craftiness close to the head of 70 The fire spewing dragon. So undoomed he may scape from Anguish and exile with ease who possesseth The favor of Heaven.
