She—You love me?

He—Aye, I do indeed,

How can I prove it?

She—Is there need?

He—Nay, not for some, but you are cold—

Ah, would our life were that of old

That I might prove by feat of arms

My wish to shield you from all harms—

As knight of thine I could not fail!

She—There’s safety in a coat of mail.
