Then Morgan le Fay went unto Alisander, and bade in anywise that he should refuse this lady, an she desire to wed you, for she is not for you.

So the damosel came and desired of him marriage.
Damosel, said Orphelin, I thank you, but as yet I cast me not to marry in this country.

Sir, she said, sithen ye will not marry me, I pray you insomuch as ye have won me, that ye will give me to a knight of this country that hath been my friend, and loved me many years.

With all my heart, said Alisander, I will assent thereto.

Then was the knight sent for, his name was Gerine le Grose.
