We would fare forth pleasure-questing to the Lady Brunhild’s land,

And knights need fair arrayal that in presence of ladies stand.”

Then spake that Daughter of Princes: “Belovèd brother mine,

If aught mine help may avail you to compass your design,

Hereof have utter assurance, I am ready to bear my part.

Yea, if another denied thee, it were pain unto Kriemhild’s heart.

O noble knight, it needs not that ye ask as in fear and doubt:

What best ye bring soever in lordly wise tell out.

Whatsoever may do you a pleasure, ready awaiteth mine aid,

And with all mine heart I do it.” So spake that winsome maid.
