Translation by Charles Kenneth Scott Moncrieff
Li emperere en tint sun chef enbrunc

By Charles Kenneth Scott Moncrieff That Emperour he sits with lowering front, AOI. |
Translation by Jessie Crosland
The emperor sat with bowed head. He stroked his beard and smoothed his moustache and gave his nephew no answer, either good or bad. ‘The French- men are silent—save Ganelon only. He jumped to his feet and came before Charles and began to speak very fiercely. And he said to the king: “'To your misfortune will you listen to a fool, whether me or any other man, if it be not to your profit. When Marsilie tells you that he will become your vassal with clasped hands, and will hold all Spain as a gift from you ; that he will accept the faith that we hold— whoever he be who advises you to reject this offer, sire, little he cares by what death we die. It is no right that a counsel of pride proceed any further; let us leave the fools and listen only to the wise.”
