fore his breast Erec strikes him with such force that he knocks him from his horse: he leaves him prone and passes on. Then Raindurant opposed him, son of the old dame of Tergalo, covered with blue cloth of silk; he was a knight of great prowess. Against one another now they charge and deal fierce blows on the shields about their neck. Erec from lance's length lays him over on the hard ground. While riding back he met the King of the Red City, who was very valiant and bold. They grasp their reins by the knots and their shields by the inner straps. They both had fine arms, and strong swift horses, and good shields, fresh and new. With such fury they strike each other that both their lances fly in splinters. Never was there seen such a blow. They rush together with shields, arms, and horses. But neither girth nor rein nor breast-strap could prevent the king from coming to earth. So he flew from his steed, carrying with him saddle and stirrup, and even the reins of his bridle in his hand. SPEED ON THE SHIELD BEFORE HIS BREAST ERIC STRIKES HIM WITH SUCH FORCE THAT HE KNOCKS HIM FROM HIS HORSE HE LEAVES HIM PRONE AND PASSES ON THEN RANDURRANT OPPOSED HIM SON OF THE OLD DAME OF TREGALO COVERED WITH BLUE CLOTH OF SILK HE WAS A KNIGHT OF GREAT PROWESS AGAINST ONE ANOTHER NOW THEY CHARGE AND DEAL FIERCE BLOWS ON THE SHIELDS ABOUT THEIR NECK EREC FROM A LANCE'S LENGTH LAYS HIM OVER ON THE HARD GROUND WHILE RIDING BACK HE MET THE KING OF THE RED CITY WHO WAS VERY VALIANT AND BOLD THEY GRASPED THE REINS BY THE KNOTS AND THEIR SHIELDS BY THE INNER STRAPS THEY BOTH HAD FINE ARMS AND STRONG SWIFT HORSES AND GOOD SHIELDS FRESH AND NEW WITH SUCH FURY THEY STRIKE EACH OTHER THAT BOTH THEIR LANCES FLY IN SPLINTERS NEVER WAS THERE SEEN SUCH A BLOW THEY RUSHED TOGETHER WITH SHIELDS ARMS AND HORSES BUT NEITHER GIRTH NOR REIN NOR BREAST RAP COULD PREVENT THE KING FROM COMING TO EARTH SO HE FLEW FROM HIS STEED CARRYING WITH HIM SADDLE AND STIRRUP AND EVEN THE REINS OF HIS BRIDLE IN HIS HAND
