And Jurand removed his hands from his face and inquired: "Which of them were in the Forest Court?" "There were Danveld, old von Loeve, and two brethren, Godfried and Rotgier," replied the priest. "They made complaint and wished the prince to order you to release von Bergow from imprisonment.
There was a moment of silence; then the sturdy and virulent Zygfried von Loeve spoke: "We must finish once for all with that bloody dog!" said he. "Herr von Bergow must be released from his fetters. We will gather the garrisons from Szczytno, Insburk and Lubowa; we will summon the Chelminsk nobility and attack Jurand. It is time to settle with him!"
"I promised her the balm," said Hugo, "for that young knight, who was injured by the bison and to whom she is betrothed. If they make an outcry when the girl is captured, then we will tell them that we did not wish to harm her any, and the best proof of it will be that on account of Christian mercy we sent her some medicine." "Very well," said von Loeve.
Von Loeve urged them forward because he realized that after what had happened, they could not lose time in nursing Danveld. Having seated himself beside him in the wagon, he rubbed his face with snow from time to time; but he could not resuscitate him. At last when near the frontier, Danveld opened his eyes and began to look around. "How do you feel?" asked Loeve.
"Well, you fought well, indeed!" "And you! did you not run away from Jurand of Spychow?" "Pax!" said von Loeve. "This knight is a guest of the Order." "It is immaterial what he said," added Brother Godfried. "They would not punish Jurand without a trial, and in the court, the truth would come out." "What will be done now?" repeated Brother Rotgier.
Denis, my patron's head, and on my knightly honor, I swear that I will warn the Mazowiecki prince and the grand master." Hugo von Danveld again looked inquiringly at Zygfried von Loeve, who closed his eyelids, as if consenting to something. Then Danveld said in a strangely muffled and changed voice: "St. Denis could carry his head after he was beheaded, but when yours once falls down "
Then the princess would not prevent her going, and if the girl be lost on the road, who will accuse you or me and say to us: 'You captured her!" "Bah!" answered von Loeve, impatiently. "You must first make Jurand sick and then make him summon the girl."
Zygfried von Loeve said: "It is forbidden the monks to fight in single combat, except by special permission from the grand master and the grand marshal; but I do not ask for permission for a combat, but for the release of von Bergow and the punishment by death of Jurand." "You do not make the laws in this country." "Our grand master will know how to administer justice."
In the same hall, behind the table that evening, sat old Zygfried von Loeve, who, after the bailiff Danveld, temporarily took command of Szczytno, and near him were Brother Rotgier, and the knight von Bergow, a former prisoner of Jurand's and two noble youths, novices, who were soon to put on white mantles.
"What is his name?" "Zygfried von Loeve." "God grant that we may manage him too." "God grant it!" Macko smiled for a moment and then said: "The princess also told me in Plock: 'Ye grieve and complain like lambs against wolves, but in this instance three of the wolves are dead, because the innocent lambs strangled them. She spoke the truth; it is actually so." "What about Danuska and her father?"
