"Then know ye his name?" said Sir Gawaine.
"Nay, truly," said the maid, "I know not his name, nor from whence he came; but to say that I love him, I promise God and you that I love him."
"How had ye knowledge of him first?" said Sir Gawaine.
Then she told him as ye have heard before, and how her father betook [intrusted] him her brother to do him service, and how her father lent him her brother Sir Tirre's shield, "and here with me he left his own shield."
"For what cause did he so?" said Sir Gawaine.
"For this cause," said the damsel, "for his shield was too well known among many noble knights."
"Ah, fair damsel," said Sir Gawaine, "please it you let me have a sight of that shield."
"Sir," said she, "it is in my chamber covered with a case, and if it will please you to come in with me ye shall see it."
"Not so," said Sir Bernard unto his daughter; "let send for it."
