Afterwards they sat in the room by the chimney,

where servants brought in the best wine without pause,

and in the end they agreed that again the next morning

they’d give an undertaking the same as before:

that whatever might happen, they’d exchange their

winnings,

the new things they’d won when they met again at

night.

They made firm that agreement before the whole

court,

and more drink was brought with the highest good

humour.

1410 Affectionately they parted at the end of the evening,

and each of them went straight to their bed.

By the time that the cock had clarioned three times,

the lord had leaped from bed, and all of his followers.

Once the food and the Mass were duly observed,

the party hastened to the woods, before day dawned,

back on the hunt.

With the hunters and the horns

they careered over the plains.

Unleashed among the briars,

1420 the hounds ran on ahead.
