Summary

Ermeline

Say whither, whither dost thou ride?
On journey bound thou seemst to be.”
Riding to woo, Sir Dwarf, I am,
Riding to wed a beauteous lady;
To break a spear I do not fear,
For weal or woe alike I’m ready.”

Ermeline

And I’ll respect and honor thee,
All, all the days I gain in life.
“Here sitt’st thou, Daughter of the Dwarf,
A rose amongst the lilies all;
No man can see thee in this world
But thee his own he fain would call.”
Source: Gutenberg

Ermeline

He rules by day old England gay,
And sleeps at night with his Ermeline.
A King more powerful there is none
Than he, the flower of chivalry;
The knights, they say, of Sweden pray
He never more their guest may be.
