This castle and its lands. For, of all knights,

He is most base; lacks most in hardihood.

A younger brother, Ontzlake, hath he; good

And courteous; withal most noble; whom

This Damas hates—yea, even seeks his doom;

Denying him to his estate all right

Save that he holds by main of arms and might.

Through puissance hath Ontzlake some few fields

And one right sumptuous manor, where he deals

With knights as knights should, with an open hand,
