Within the court a great herd of thoats and zitidars moved restlessly about, cropping the moss-like ochre vegetation which overgrows practically the entire uncultivated area of Mars. What breeze there was came from the north-west, so there was little danger that the beasts would scent me.
When Beaumains saw this, he also sprang to the earth and met his antagonist on foot. Here they fought for a long time, till both had lost much blood. "You should be ashamed to stand so long fighting with a kitchen knave," cried the damsel at last to the green knight.

Alas! alas! my dearest, The look of pain thou wearest!
