Even the King was glad for it; although he was very happy before, yet now he is still happier, and shows Erec great honour. EVEN THE KING WAS GLAD FOR IT ALTHOUGH HE WAS VERY HAPPY BEFORE YET NOW HE IS STILL HAPPIER AND SHOWS ERIC GREAT HONOUR
ever yet could I withhold my love from him, nor should I do so. For is not my lord the son of a king? For did he not take me when I was poor and naked? Through him has such honour come to me that never was any such vouchsafed to a poor helpless girl. And if it please you, I will tell you without lying how I came to be thus raised up; for never will I be slow to tell the story." Then she told and related to her how Erec came to Lalut; for she had no desire to conceal it. She told her the adventure word for word, without omission. But I pass over it now, because he who tells a story twice makes his tale now tiresome. While they were thus conversing, one lady slipped away alone, who sent and told it all to the gentlemen, in order to increase and heighten their pleasure too. All those who heard it rejoiced at this news. And when Mabonagrain knew it he was delighted for his sweetheart because now she was comforted. And she who bore them quickly the news made them all happy in a short space.  CANNOT BE GREATER NEVER YET COULD I WITHHOLD MY LOVE FROM HIM NOR SHOULD I DO SO FOR IS NOT MY LORD THIS SON OF A KING FOR DID HE NOT TAKE ME WHEN I WAS POOR AND NAKED THROUGH HIM HAS SUCH HONOUR COME TO ME THAT NEVER WAS ANY SUCH VOUCHSAFED TO A POOR HELPLESS GIRL AND IF IT PLEASE YOU I WILL TELL YOU WITHOUT LYING HOW I CAME TO BE THUS RAISED UP FOR NEVER WILL I BE SLOW TO TELL THE STORY THEN SHE TOLD AND RELATED TO HER HOW E'RE CAME TO LALUT FOR SHE HAD NO DESIRE TO CONCEAL IT SHE TOLD HER THE ADVENTURE WORD FOR WORD WITHOUT OMISSION BUT I PASS OVER IT NOW BECAUSE HE WHO TELLS A STORY TWICE MAKES HIS TALE NOW TIRESOME WHILE THEY WERE THUS CONVERSING ONE LADY SLIPPED AWAY ALONE WHO SENT AND TOLD IT ALL TO THE GENTLEMEN IN ORDER TO INCREASE AND HEIGHTEN THEIR PLEASURE TOO ALL THOSE WHO HEARD IT REJOICED AT THIS NEWS AND WHEN MABONNAGRAIN KNEW IT HE WAS DELIGHTED FOR HIS SWEETHEART BECAUSE NOW SHE WAS COMFORTED AND SHE WHO BORE THEM QUICKLY THE NEWS MADE THEM ALL HAPPY IN A SHORT SPACE
