XXVI. Of the noble apparel of the maid Magtelt.
In her own room she dressed herself in her most beautiful clothes as quickly as she could.
What did the fair maid put on her white body? A bodice finer than silk.
And over the fine bodice?
A robe of cloth-of-scarlet of Flemish blue, whereon were the arms of de Heurne marvellously worked, and the edges next to the feet and the neck embroidered with fine Cyprian gold.
Wherewith did the fair maid bind in her slender waist?
With a girdle of the hide of a lion, studded with gold.
What had the fair maid on her beautiful shoulders?
Her great keirle, which was of cramoisy stitched with Cyprian gold, and covered her from head to foot, for it was an ample cloak.
What had the fair maid on her proud head?
