While the Baron stood, fixed to the spot, a voice was heard to utter these words: 'While the Baron stood, fixed to the spot, a voice was heard to utter these words: * 'The body of Sir Bevys of Lancaster, a noble knight of England, lies before you. He was, this night, waylaid and murdered, as he journeyed from the Holy City towards his native land.
"Well, well, we'll see any how; but for to-morrow, why, I guess we must beat the 'Squire's swamp-hole first; there's ten or twelve cock there, I know; I see them there myself last Sunday; and then acrost them buck-wheat stubbles, and the big bog meadow, there's a drove of quail there; two or three bevys got in one, I reckon; leastwise I counted thirty-three last Friday was a week; and through Seer's big swamp, over to the great spring!"
"I am an English knight; I am called Sir Bevys of Lancaster, and my deeds are not unknown at the Holy City, whence I was returning to my native land, when I was benighted in the neighbouring forest." "Your name is not unknown to fame," said the Baron, "I have heard of it."
'The Baron, when he recovered from the awe and astonishment, into which this adventure had thrown him, returned to his castle, whither he caused the body of Sir Bevys to be removed; and, on the following day, it was interred, with the honours of knighthood, in the chapel of the castle, attended by all the noble knights and ladies, who graced the court of Baron de Brunne.
