Yea, in abundant measure she won the heroes’ praise.
Now the majesty of King Etzel was grown so world-renowned,
That at every time and season about his court were found
All knights on earth most valiant that ever man had known
Mid Christian nations and heathen: all gathered round his throne.
Year in, year out, around him—such sight none now may see—
Were Christian knights and heathen dwelling in amity,
Each after his own land’s custom, even as such might fall.
So full and so free was his bounty, that aye it sufficed for all.
