Without difficulty Erec thrusts the sharp and well forged steel into his neck beneath the chin, severing thus the bones and nerves. At the back of his neck the blade protrudes, and the hot red blood flows down on both sides from the wound. He yields his spirit, and his heart is still. WITHOUT DIFFICULTY ERIC THRUSTS THE SHARP AND WELL FORGED STEEL INTO HIS NECK BENEATH THE CHIN SEVERING THUS THE BONES AND NERVES AT THE BACK OF HIS NECK THE BLADE PROTRUDES AND THE HOT RED BLOOD FLOWS DOWN ON BOTH SIDES FROM THE WOUND HE YIELDS HIS SPIRIT AND HIS HEART IS STILL
ayed behind; but still they are not far away, and will quickly aid him, if need arise." Erec replies: "You had an evil thought, when you transgressed my command--a thing which I had forbidden you. And yet I knew all the time that you did not hold me in esteem. Your service has been ill employed; for it has not awakened my gratitude, but rather kindled the more my ire. I have told you that once, and I say it again. This once again I will pardon you; but another time restrain yourself, and do not again turn around to watch me: for in doing so you would be very foolish. I do not relish your words." Then he spurs across the field toward his adversary, and they come together. Each seeks out and assails the other. Erec strikes him with such force that his shield flies from his neck, and thus he breaks his collar-bone. His stirrups break, and he falls without the strength to rise again, for he was badly bruised and wounded. One of the others then appeared, and they attack each other fiercely. IKE YOU TIS TRUE THE FOUR HAVE STAYED BEHIND BUT STILL THEY ARE NOT FAR AWAY AND WILL QUICKLY AID HIM IF NEED ARISE ERIC REPLIES YOU HAD AN EVIL THOUGHT WHEN YOU TRANSGRESSED MY COMMAND A THING WHICH I HAD FORBIDDEN YOU AND YET I KNEW ALL THE TIME THAT YOU DID NOT HOLD ME IN ESTEEM YOUR SERVICE HAS BEEN ILL EMPLOYED FOR IT HAS NOT AWAKENED MY GRATITUDE BUT RATHER KINDLED THE MORE MY IRE I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT ONCE AND I SAY IT AGAIN THIS ONCE AGAIN I WILL PARDON YOU BUT ANOTHER TIME RESTRAIN YOURSELF AND DO NOT AGAIN TURN ROUND TO WATCH ME FOR IN DOING SO YOU WOULD BE VERY FOOLISH I DO NOT RELISH YOUR WORDS THEN HE SPURS ACROSS THE FIELD TOWARD HIS ADVERSARY AND THEY COME TOGETHER EACH SEEKS OUT AND ASSAILS THE OTHER ERIC STRIKES HIM WITH SUCH FORCE THAT HIS SHIELD FLIES FROM HIS NECK AND THUS HE BREAKS HIS COLLAR BONE HIS STIRRUPS BREAK AND HE FALLS WITHOUT THE STRENGTH TO RISE AGAIN FOR HE WAS BADLY BRUISED AND WOUNDED ONE OF THE OTHERS THEN APPEARED AND THEY ATTACK EACH OTHER FIERCELY
