And what a brave glittering sight, what a hubbub and clamor—what a stink! Even the wind from the sea could not sweep the stench away.The clans had come to these barren hills and planted a forest of tents leafed with gaudy canvas and leather and blooming with banners. The men were pent up so close in this false forest that they crawled upon each other like wasps. Pent up and idle, idle and restless, they waited for the king to let loose the swarm. In this wood there were but two kinds of game: me...n and women. Men were hunted on the tourney field. Women were hunted everywhere.And Hazard Chance was worshiped everywhere, because the cataphracts and their men would wager on anything: who would win a tourney; which stallion would master all the others in the corral; whether a certain dame was with child or no; if one drudge could beat another in a footrace across the Marchfield and back; if a manhound could best a bear; whether a particular flea would jump to your jack or your bagboy if they both sat still as could be.So it was that Sire Galan made a wager with Sire Alcoba that night, and the next morning I heard about it from Spiller, who had it from Sire Alcoba’s jack Rowney, who’d overheard them conversing in this manner:Sire Alcoba says, “As a wife she would be too cheap—her father spoke truly, she has no dowry at all—but as a concubine she’s too dear.
