"Comrade Rollanz, once sound your olifant!
If Charles hear, where in the pass he stands, I pledge you now, they'll turn again, the Franks.""Never, by God," then answers him Rollanz, "Shall it be said by any living man, That for pagans I took my horn in hand!
Never by me shall men reproach my clan.
When I am come into the battle grand, And blows lay on, by hundred, by thousand, Of Durendal bloodied you'll see the brand.
Franks are good men; like vassals brave they'll stand;Nay, Spanish men from death have no warrant."
