After the ceremony of signing was concluded the bishop gave the Frankish count absolution for the murder of his brother and offered him three full cups of wine to comfort him. "Sigefrid," said the count to his leude, smothering a last sigh of regret, "be a good friend to me; ride to my burg; take Odille the spinner girl on the crupper of your horse and bring her here."
The dogs! the dogs! Neroweg alone commands here." "Yes, and to the devil with the King!" cried Sigefrid. "The devil take Chram if he opposes our enjoyment! We are masters here." "Only brutes of rustics send their guest to the devil when he is the son of their King," put in the Lion of Poitiers with a threatening air. "Is that the example in courtesy that you set to your men, Neroweg?
I forbid you the mountebank has placed himself under the protection of Chram and of us, his men." "Companions!" cried Sigefrid, "shall we tolerate the heaping of insults upon our count?" "Just listen to the rustic brutes!" observed aloud one of Chram's warriors, "listen to them, barking as ever, without daring to bite."
"Alas, the fear of being devoured will force him to defend himself as best he may; in all your life you will not have seen such a spectacle." "And you, Neroweg," said Sigefrid, more than any other of the leudes a stickler for the count's dignity, "do you allow the bear to have a club? You alone have the right to say here: 'I will."
It almost looks, you vainglorious rustic, as if you took us for thieves." "Neroweg offers his hospitality in the way that suits him," put in Sigefrid, the count's leude, in a tone of muffled anger; "those who eat the meat and drink the wine of this house have no right to complain of the dishes if these don't suit them, let them go and fill up elsewhere."
"Sigefrid, I have unlocked the railing," said one of the Franks; "shall we begin with the men or the women?" "I shall begin with the men!" cried Karadeucq, planting his dagger in the breast of Sigefrid. "I also!" cried the Master of the Hounds, stabbing another one of the Franks. "Vagrery! Vagrery! To us, all brave slaves! Death to the Franks! War upon the seigneurs! Liberty to the slaves!
