XXXVIII

The King is gone into that orchard then;

With him he takes the best among his men;

And Blancandrins there shews his snowy hair,

And Jursalet, was the King's son and heir,

And the alcaliph, his uncle and his friend.

Says Blancandrins: "Summon the Frank again,

In our service his faith to me he's pledged."

Then says the King: "So let him now be fetched."

He's taken Guenes by his right finger-ends,

And through the orchard straight to the King they wend.

Of treason there make lawless parliament.
