 1    12|     those warriors two, with faulchions bare,~Turning their ready
 2    13|    entrance with their naked faulchions; we~Sever the rope forthwith,
 3    26|  infidel.~Already were their faulchions raised on high,~Which on
 4    30|     knights unsheathed their faulchions from the thigh,~And, like
 5    30|     attacked,~Nor with their faulchions at the steeds took aim,~
 6    31|   the ground,~Now with their faulchions sever plate and chain.~Yet
 7    33|     round,~Nor even kept the faulchions which they wore;~And, since
 8    33|      e'er by proof two other faulchions chose~For sound and solid,
 9    38|       As said) without their faulchions to engage.~The place of
10    40|      for might.~That best of faulchions, which through iron case~
11    43| breast,~This from a thousand faulchions will defend~More surely,
12    44|      he to yield, a thousand faulchions pierce.~ ~ LXXXIV~The Bulgar
13    46|     broke their spears, with faulchions bare~Return, to bandy fierce
