TORRENT SENDS THE KING OF PORTUGAL TO DROWN.
[ (184)]
There wold none the yatis deffend,
But lett sir Torent in wend [2120]
With his men) euerychone. [2221]
Swith a counsell̴ yede they to,
To what deth they wold hym do,
For he his lady had slone.
‘Lordis,’ he said, ‘he is a kyng, [2125]
Men may hym) nether hede ne hing.’
