�Get along with you! Shame on you, faintheart!
Alas!� cried she. �For, by the Lord above,
Now you have lost my heart, lost all my love.
I cannot love a coward, that I swear!
For if we can, we women all desire
Whatever any of us say, to have
Husbands who�re generous and wise and brave
And discreet; not a skinflint nor a fool,
Nor one who is afraid of naked steel,
No, nor a braggart, by the Lord above!
How can you have thee face to tell your love
That anything can make you feel afraid?
Have you no man�s heart, and yet wear a beard?
Alas! and can you be afraid of dreams?"

(Oxford World's Classics edition)

Well?
