“Henris sis soldeiers paia,

As uns pramist, as uns dona

Al terme k’il out establi;

A li Duc a Roem sui.”

There the Duke imprisons Henry; that is, the imprisonment which happened long before (see p. 199) is moved out of its place. But Wace cannot tell why he was imprisoned, or how it was that he was released and made his way to France (14754);

“Ne voil avant conter ne dire

Par kel coroz ne par kele ire

Henris fu poiz a Roem pris,

E en la tur à garder mis;

Ne coment il fu delivrez,
