" And now, dinner being over, the King rose 126 HOW RALPH WENT TO COURT from the table ; and he told before the whole company how he had fared with the Charcoal- burner. The churl quaked as he heard the tale. And he said, "Would I were on the moor again this very hour, and the King alone, or any one of his knights, be he the bravest and strongest of them all. " Then the lords laughed aloud. Some, however, were angry, and would have had the man hanged. " What is this churl, " said they, "that he... should so misuse the King?" But Charles would have none of such doings. " He is a stalwart man, and can strike a hard blow. Heaven forbid that I should harm him. Rather will I make him a knight. " So he dubbed Ralph the Charcoal-burner a knight, and gave him a revenue of ^300 by the year, and "the next fee in France that shall come into my hands, that, " said he, "will I give you. But now you must win your spurs. " So the King gave him his armour and arms, and sixty squires of good degree to be his company.
