Þe heu is swilk in hire ler
who is as fair as a rose.
So [is] þe rose in roser,
Hwan it is fayr sprad ut newe
Ageyn þe sunne, brith and lewe.”
And girde him sone with þe swerd
Of þe erldom, bi-forn his ferd,
And with his hond he made him knith,
And yaf him armes, for þat was rith,
They are married.
