〃Mephistophilis； transform him straight＇ According to THE
HISTORY OF DR。 FAUSTUS； the knight was not present during
Faustus's 〃conference〃 with the Emperor； nor did he offer
the doctor any insult by doubting his skill in magic。 We
are there told that Faustus happening to see the knight
asleep； 〃leaning out of a window of the great hall；〃 fixed
a huge pair of hart's horns on his head； 〃and； as the knight
awaked； thinking to pull in his head； he hit his hornes
against the glasse； that the panes thereof flew about his
eares： thinke here how this good gentleman was vexed； for
he could neither get backward nor forward。〃 After the emperor
and the courtiers； to their great amusement； had beheld the
poor knight in this condition； Faustus removed the horns。
When Faustus； having taken leave of the emperor； was a league
and a half from the city； he was attacked in a wood by the
knight and some of his companions： they were in armour； and
mounted on fair palfreys； but the doctor quickly overcame
them by turning all the bushes into horsemen； and 〃so
charmed them； that every one； knight and other； for the
space of a whole moneth； did weare a paire of goates
hornes on their browes； and every palfry a paire of oxe
hornes on his head； and this was their penance appointed
by Faustus。〃 A second attempt of the knight to revenge
himself on Faustus proved equally unsuccessful。 Sigs。 G 2；
