Then I rose and drew her up with me; but she knelt again by my brother's side, and kissed him, and said: "0 brother! The Hollow Land is only second best of the places God has made, for Heaven also is the work of His hand." Afterwards we dug a deep grave among the beechroots and there we buried Amald de Liliis.
What a strange Christmas-day that was, for there, about nine o'clock in the morning, rode Red Harald into the good town to demand vengeance; he went at once to the king, and the king promised that before nightfall that very day the matter should be judged; albeit the king feared somewhat, because every third man you met in the streets had a blue cross on his shoulder, and some likeness of a lily, cut out or painted, stuck in his hat; and this blue cross and lily were the bearings of our house, called "De Liliis."
"I am Florian de Liliis, and I am to conduct you to judgment." She sprang up, "Curse you and your whole house, you I hate worse than any girl's face guards! guards!" and she stamped on the ground, her veins on the forehead swelled, her eyes grew round and flamed out, as she kept crying for her guards, stamping the while, for she seemed quite mad.
Now, my name was Florian, and my house was the house of the Lilies; and of that house was my father lord, and after him my eldest brother Amald; and me they called Florian de Liliis. Moreover, when my father was dead, there arose a feud between the Lilies' house and Red Harald; and this that follows is the history of it. Lady Swanhilda, Red Harald's mother, was a widow, with one son.
