Happy I am to have met with her. Now make quickly and without delay a proper bier for this dead knight. HAPPY I AM TO HAVE MET WITH HER NOW MAKE QUICKLY AND WITHOUT DELAY A PROPER BIER FOR THIS DEAD KNIGHT
 you, to take some pity on yourself! It is meet that you should mourn, but it is no use to be disconsolate; for you may yet rise to high estate. Do not sink into apathy, but comfort yourself; that will be wise, and God will give you joy again. Your wondrous beauty holds good fortune in store for you; for I will take you as my wife, and make you a countess and dame of rank: this ought to bring you much consolation. And I shall have the body removed and laid away with great honour. Leave off now this grief of yours which in your frenzy you display." And she replies: "Sire, begone! For God's sake, let me be! You can accomplish nothing here. Nothing that one could say or do could ever make me glad again." At this the Count drew back and said: "Let us make a bier, whereon to carry away this body with the lady to the town of Limors. There the body shall be interred. Then will I espouse the lady, whether or not she give consent: for never did I see any one so fair, nor desire any as I do her. DY HE SAYS BY THE LORD I PRAY YOU TO TAKE SOME PITY ON YOURSELF IT IS MEET THAT YOU SHOULD MOURN BUT IT IS NO USE TO BE DISCONSOLATE FOR YOU MAY YET RISE TO HIGH ESTATE DO NOT SINK INTO APATHY BUT COMFORT YOURSELF THAT WILL BE WISE AND GOD WILL GIVE YOU JOY AGAIN YOUR WONDROUS BEAUTY HOLDS GOOD FORTUNE IN STORE FOR YOU AND I WILL TAKE YOU AS MY WIFE AND MAKE YOU A COUNTESS AND DAME OF RANK THIS OUGHT TO BRING YOU MUCH CONSOLATION AND I SHALL HAVE THE BODY REMOVED AND LAID AWAY WITH GREAT HONOUR LEAVE OFF NOW THIS GRIEF OF YOURS WHICH IN YOUR FRENZY YOU DISPLAY AND SHE REPLIES SIRE BE GONE FOR GOD'S SAKE LET ME BE YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH NOTHING HERE NOTHING THAT ONE COULD SAY OR DO COULD EVER MAKE ME GLAD AGAIN AT THIS THE COUNT DREW BACK AND SAID LET US MAKE A BIER WHEREON TO CARRY AWAY THE BODY WITH THE LADY TO THE TOWN OF LAMORES THERE THE BODY SHALL BE INTERRED THEN WILL I ESPOUSE THE LADY WHETHER OR NOT SHE GIVE CONSENT FOR NEVER DID I SEE ANY ONE SO FAIR NOR DESIRE ANY ONE AS I DO HER
