Here is an example:
The Dagger
The dagger am I, a noble arm,
Knowing my malice, knowing my art,
Playing close to do you harm
None can stand if I take part
I make my noble feats of arms:
Who can hold against me?
No armour made resists my charms,
No arm either, you will see
Cover, thrust, and grapple too,
I take your dagger, break and bind
Strike me? I will make you rue
The day, as you will find.
The cruel fight I’ll finish faster:
Of the art of arms, I am master.
