EXCERPT:
Marsk Stig he out of the country rode
To win him fame with his good bright sword;
At home meantide the King will bide
In hope to lure his heart’s ador’d.
The King sends word to the Marshal Stig
That he to the fields of war should fare;
Himself will deign at home to remain
And take the charge of his Lady fair.
