For a given elliptic curve having a prime degree how to create a Weil Descent ?

A Weil descent is for creating a hyperelliptic curve cover for making discrete logarithm easier on a class of curve. The aim is for a given curve to create a hyperelleptic curve which is equivalent.

In magma this is very simple : just use the Weil_descent function. But as I no longer have a license, what’s the equivalent SageMath function ?
