Meinhard assures me that I shall be accepted as equal in birth and accessory to the deed. Remember Columba and the value of Verronax's life, and let me save him. Consent and hold him back.

This marriage was also declared by the pope unlawful, and the son, Meinhard, eventually born to them, was branded as illegitimate.
