Both knights leap on the earth, and, quick as light,

Stand face to face.—Strong, fiery Pinabel

And Tierri for each other seek. Their steeds

Are fled.—But their gold-hilted swords they wield;

And on the helms of steel they shower such blows

As rashed the thongs. Loudly the knights lament,

And Carle exclaims:—"Show thou the right, O God!"

Aoi.
