That come roming out of the field wide,

Hond in hond a knight and a lady;

The ladies all in surcotes, that richely

Purfiled were with many a rich stone,

And every knight of green ware mantles on,

Embrouded well so as the surcotes were,

And everich had a chapelet on her hed,

Which did right well upon the shining here,

Made of goodly floures white and red;

The knightes eke that they in honde led,
