Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stories From Old French Romance "Who will list a tale to hear, That was an aged captive´s cheer, Of youth and maiden fair and sweet, Aucassin and Nicolette?" Once upon a time it so fell out that a certain Count Bougars of Valence made war upon Count Garin of Beaucaire; he attacked his castle, burned his estates, laid waste his country, and killed all his men. Count Garin was an old man, old and frail; and he had one son whose name was Aucassin. Golden-haired was Aucassin, and his eyes grey-blue; his face was bright and merry, and he had many good gifts. But he had fallen deep in love with a fair maiden, and cared for nothing else in the world but only for Nicolette. Then said his parents to him, "Son, take up arms and mount thy horse and go fight at the head of our men." But Aucassin replied, "I will not mount horse, nor will I go to battle nor strike a blow, if you give me not my sweet friend Nicolette to be my wife." Now to this his parents would not agree, for Nicolette had been brought as a captive from a strange country by the Saracens.
