ABSTRACT
Peratallada and En Domingo de la Figuera remained with the host. And En Gilabert said, when they were apart: " Ah, Lord, what is this you have done, and how could you put yourself into so great a hazard ? ” “ En Gila bert,” said the Lord King, ” I wish you to know that, even were I certain I have to lose my life here, I should not have refrained from coming for any reason whatever, and so do not let us make long speech about it. You have sent to tell me that I can trust the seneschal and, therefore, go to him and tell him that a knight of the King of Aragon is here who wishes to speak with him, and that he should bring with' him a notary and six knights who are his men, and no more, and that he should come at once.” And En Gilabert went at once to the seneschal and told him what the Lord King of Aragon had commanded him to say. And the seneschal went to the King of France and said to him : “ Lord, a knight has come from the King of Aragon and wishes to speak with me, and with your leave, I wish to go to him, if it is your pleasure.” And the King of France answered that he was accustomed to such summons being made every day, and said : “ Go, and good luck be with you and, when you have spoken with him, let Us know what he said.” ” Lord,” said he, “ I shall do so.” And the seneschal went at once with the notary, the best and oldest there was at the court of the King of England, and with the six most honourable knights he had in his company. And when they came to the lists they found the Lord King and En Bernart de Peratallada and En Domingo de la Figuera in the lists; and the seneschal and those who were with him entered within the lists, and also the host who was with the King and En Gilabert who was with the seneschal.
