CCLXX

That Emperour is now returned to Aix.

The felon Guene, all in his iron chains

Is in that town, before the King's Palace;

Those serfs have bound him, fast upon his stake,

In deer-hide thongs his hands they've helpless made,

With clubs and whips they trounce him well and baste:

He has deserved not any better fate;

In bitter grief his trial there he awaits.
