Romania, VI, 216-8.
» Sir Gowther, 117. Beneze, on the other hand (Orendel, 13), and after hinj Loseth (Robert le Diable, xxxii, note 4), are of opinion that the two parts of the story were originally connected. The question, which is obviously incapable of a real solution, has no bearing on the present investigation.
58 The Romanic Review The episode of the golden hair, now no longer in point, naturally dis- appeared,^** and for it was substituted a narrative of the boy's fe- rocity and deeds
...of cruelty, especially toward clerics. The whole first part of the story, in short, was made over with a view to pictur- ing a man completely in the spiritual power of the Devil, and ca- pable, therefore, of every kind of sin. From this state only one way of escape was open — repentance and absolution; accordingly, the boy's flight from the house of his master was transformed into a pilgrimage to Rome and an appeal to the Pope, who sent him for penance to a neighboring hermit. With the carrying-out of this penance, which involved as one of its provisions total silence on the part of the sinner, the legend again fell back on the popular tale, and followed it, with a few changes of no significance in the present connection, until the end.
