So 4, fell that one night both ladies behsld

c4yoros1s moan. seeing how few OF the
goody company that sailed forth had got

distress whether Rudel had returned with
them or no.
But IA q little there came a servant 20

Therezpon. Sir Broyarsce took heart and
said:
Since our king died. God rest his soul,
there has been I'D peace or quiet in our
kingdnzn OF Broye. It's rent with strife
and facthous. 80 that no man may dwell
In X 5p, he must hght from morn to night,
and wtthal win ITO rest for the morrow.
The kings three sons contend for the
throne and meanwhile Is the country eaten
up. Thsrenors am I sent by many, and
those our ehiefe-s gentlemen, 10 ask you 10
Sand us Sieur Rsidez, that he may Quail
these conflicts and rule over Us as our
king"
So Sir Broyance spake and was silent.
and great murmur and reclamation rose
about the hall. for that the sieur Rudel
was held In such honor and worship even
beyond his own country. But for the
Princess Joceliande. she sat with down
cast head. and for a while vouchsafed no
reply. For her heart was sore at the
thought that Sieur Rudel should 40 from
her.
There 10 much danger in the advent
ure, she said sc length, doubtfully.
Were there no danger, madame" he
