I did so contrive.
II:3:5 SOL.
Rare imp! And then?
II:3:6 PAGE.
Well, as you told me, then
I mingled with the Pages of the King.
They're not so very tall; I might have passed
I think for one upon a holiday.
II:3:7 SOL.
O thou shalt pass for better than a page
But tell me, child, didst see my gallant Count?
II:3:8 PAGE.
On the right hand --
II:3:9 SOL.
Upon the King's right hand?
II:3:10 PAGE.
Upon the King's right hand, and there were also --
II:3:11 SOL.
Mind not the rest; thou'rt sure on the right hand?
II:3:12 PAGE.
Most sure; and on the left --
II:3:13 SOL.
Ne'er mind the left,
Speak only of the right. How did he seem?
Did there pass words between him and the King?
Often or scant? Did he seem gay or grave?
Or was his aspect of a middle tint,
As if he deemed that there were other joys
Not found within that chamber?
II:3:14 PAGE.
Sooth to say,
He did seem what he is, a gallant knight.
Would I were such! For talking with the King,
He spoke, yet not so much but he could spare
Words to the other lords.
