Golden Wings.
[Verse extracted from the prose narrative.]
[“He was fair and free]
“He was fair and free,
At every tourney
He wan the degree,
Sir Guy the good knight.
At every tourney
He wan the degree,
Sir Guy the good knight.
302
“He wan Alys the fair,
The King's own daughtere,
With all her gold hair,
That shone well bright.
The King's own daughtere,
With all her gold hair,
That shone well bright.
“He saved a good knight,
Who also was wight,
And had wingès bright
On a blue shield.
Who also was wight,
And had wingès bright
On a blue shield.
“And he slew the Knight
Of the High Gard in fight,
In red weed that was dight
In the open field.”
Of the High Gard in fight,
In red weed that was dight
In the open field.”
