  The peer's proposal pleased the paynim well.

  And so their hot contention was foregone;

  And such fair truce replaced that discord fell,

  So mutual wrongs forgot and mischief done;

  That for departure seated in his sell,

  On foot the Spaniard left not Aymon's son;

  But him to mount his courser's crupper prayed;

  And both united chased the royal maid.
