"I never beare no childe but one,

And you have slaine him trulye."

30. Sayes[116], "Wicked be my merrymen all,

I gave meate, drinke, and clothe!

But could they not have holden me

When I was in all that wrath!"

31. "For I have slaine one of the curteousest knights

That ever bestrode a steed,

So[117] have I done one of the fairest ladyes

That ever ware woman's weede!"
