fierce and fell
Added 2025-12-02 08:42:06 +0000 UTCNow of their service good I think no more to say,
For each man well may wot no lack was there that day.
Noise that to them was new methinks now drew anear
Such as each man in hall were ever fain to hear,
For scarce the joyful sounds unto an end were brought,
And scarce had the first course been fitly served at court,
When through the hall door rushed a champion fierce and fell,
Highest in statue he, of all on earth who dwell!
From neck to waist to square, and eke so thickly set,
His loins and limbs alike, so long they were, and great,
Half giant upon earth, I hold him to have been,
In every way of men the tallest he, I ween--
The merriest in his might that e'er a joust might ride,
Sternly his body framed in back, and breast, and side,
Belly and waist alike were fitly formed, and small,
E'en so his features fair were sharply cut withal,
and clean,
Men marvelled at his hue,
So was his semblance seen,
He fared as one on feud,
and overall was green!
