Enide thought to go alone, wishing to take no one with her, but some of the most noble and fairest dames and damsels followed her out of affection to bear her company, and also to comfort her to whom the joy brings great chagrin; for she assumed that now her lover would be no longer with her so much as he had been, inasmuch as he desired to leave the garden. AND HEB THOUGHT TO GO ALONE WISHING TO TAKE NO ONE WITH HER BUT SOME OF THE MOST NOBLE AND FAIREST DAMES AND DAMSELS FOLLOWED HER OUT OF AFFECTION TO BEAR HER COMPANY AND ALSO TO COMFORT HER TO WHOM THE JOY BRINGS GREAT CHAGRIN FOR SHE ASSUMED THAT NOW HER LOVER WOULD NO LONGER BE WITH HER SO MUCH AS HE HAD BEEN INASMUCH AS HE DESIRED TO LEAVE THE GARDEN
words. The news spreads through the country that thus the affair has turned out. Then there was no holding back from coming to the court. All the people hasten thither in confusion, some on foot and some on horse, without waiting for each other. And those who were in the garden hastened to remove Erec's arms, and in emulation they all sang a song about the Joy; and the ladies made up a lay which they called 'the Lay of Joy', [142] but the lay is not well known. Erec was well sated with joy and well served to his heart's desire; but she who sat on the silver couch was not a bit pleased. The joy which she saw was not at all to her taste. But many people have to keep still and look on at what gives them pain. Enide acted graciously; because she saw her sitting pensive, alone on the couch, she felt moved to go and speak with her and tell her about her affairs and about herself, and to strive, if possible, to make her tell in return about herself, if it did not cause her too great distress.
