< The Song of Roland

After there came a pagan, Climorins,
Smiling and clear to Guenelun begins:
"Take now my helm, better is none than this;
But give us aid, on Roland the marquis,
By what device we may dishonour bring."
"It shall be done", Count Guenes answered him;
On mouth and cheek then each the other kissed.
