AND THE Emperour Reyner free
Of this combraunce ne wiste he.
With a King he pleide at ches
Of Hungrye, that he loued y-wis.
With that come Terry priking,
Line 2285
And in his honde his swerde bering:
His harneis was all to-tore,
And his vomrell aualed before;
Thurgh his body the blode ranne,
And Terry made noo semblant thanne:
Line 2290
His stronge shelde all to-hewen was,
That skantly any hole pees nas.
'Emperour,' he seide, 'vnderstonde me:
Harde tydingis y telle the
Of thy Barons that taken bee;
Line 2295
Ne shall they neuere come more at the.
Some bee dede and leyde to grounde,
And some smitten with dethes wounde.
Take is the duke Reyner,
And of Coloigne the Erle Waldemer;
Line 2300
