With her heart's thoughts her words do not agree. "Sire," says she, "believe me now! WITH HER HEART'S THOUGHTS HER WORDS DO NOT AGREE SIRE SAYS SHE BELIEVE ME NOW
 and dishonours her will often find her more tractable. I give you my word that if you do not do my will there soon will be some sword-play here. Rightly or wrongly, I will have your lord slain right here before your eyes." "Ah, sire," says Enide, "there is a better way than that you say. You would commit a wicked and treacherous deed if you killed him thus. Calm yourself again, I pray; for I will do your pleasure. You may regard me as all your own, for I am yours and wish to be. I did not speak as I did from pride, but to learn and prove if I could find in you the true love of a sincere heart. But I would not at any price have you commit an act of treason. My lord is not on his guard; and if you should kill him thus, you would do a very ugly deed, and I should have the blame for it. Every one in the land would say that it had been done with my consent. Go and rest until the morrow, when my lord shall be about to rise. Then you can better do him harm without blame and without reproach.  HER BUT WHOEVER INSULTS AND DISHONOURS HER WILL OFTEN FIND HER MORE TRACTABLE I GIVE YOU MY WORD THAT IF YOU DO NOT DO MY WILL THERE SOON WILL BE SOME SWORD PLAY HERE RIGHTLY OR WRONGLY I WILL HAVE YOUR LORD SLAIN RIGHT HERE BEFORE YOUR EYES AH SIRE SAYS THE NEED THERE IS A BETTER WAY THAN THAT YOU SAY YOU WOULD COMMIT A WICKED AND TREACHEROUS DEED IF YOU KILLED HIM THUS CALM YOURSELF AGAIN I PRAY FOR I I WILL TO YOUR PLEASURE YOU MAY REGARD ME AS ALL YOUR OWN FOR I AM YOURS AND WISH TO BE I DID NOT SPEAK AS I DID FROM PRIDE BUT TO LEARN AND PROVE IF I COULD FIND IN YOU THE TRUE LOVE OF A SINCERE HEART BUT I WOULD NOT AT ANY PRICE HAVE YOU COMMIT AN ACT OF TREASON MY LORD IS NOT ON HIS GUARD AND IF YOU SHOULD KILL HIM THUS YOU WOULD DO A VERY UGLY DEED AND I SHOULD HAVE THE BLAME FOR IT EVERY ONE IN THE LAND WOULD SAY THAT IT HAD BEEN DONE WITH MY CONSENT GO AND REST UNTIL THE MORROW WHEN MY LORD SHALL BE ABOUT TO RISE THEN YOU CAN BETTER DO HIM HARM WITHOUT BLAME AND WITHOUT REPROACH
