If true indeed were your tidings, well should you be feed;
By me would three great castles and a hide of land be given,
With sixty golden arm-bands; while bliss thenceforth my days should long enliven.”

The fee should I be sharing. At court they wish for you;

And if in truth you wish it, she in your land will be your queen and lady.”
