He pronounced the ground to be for the combatants only, and threatened dire punishment on him who dared break the circle, or in any \vay hinder the battle ; he enjoined the warriors to con- duct themselves nobly in fair battle, to use no magic, and to submit to and abide by the divine decision. All bent their heads in prayer for some minutes; then, in the midst of a breathless excitement, the trumpeters blew the battle-call. The two knights completed their preparations and stood ready to enter ...the circle. The King struck his shield three times with his sword. With the first stroke they swiftly took their places ; with the second stroke each moved forward a step, his shield on his arm and his sword drawn and presented ; with the third and last stroke the combat began. The stranger Knight attacked, and after a few passes struck his adversary to the earth ; then, al- though he held the right to slay his fallen enemy, he drew back, leaving him prostrate. Telramund rose, staggered, and though not seriously hurt, fell back again, overcome with humiliation.
