XV

At last one day I rested in a glade

Near that same woodland which I lay in when

Sore wounded: and, while sitting in the shade

Of an old beech--what! did I dream? or men

Like Rupert's own ride near me? and a maid--

Isolda or her double!--Wildly then

I rose and, shouting, leapt upon my horse;

Unsheathed my sword and rode across their course.
