Sir Geoffrey ic Charni, accompanied

by the Lord ol Namur, the Lord de Cre-

qui, Sir Odoart de Heny, and numerous others of Ihe most distinguished among the French lords and knights, arrived from St. t mere, with all the forces he could collect, crossed the bridge of Nenil let, and sat down about midnight before that gate of the castle of Calais which is called ihe gate of Boulogne. Here he halted, to give time for his rear to come up, and here lie found Sir Emeric de

Pavia anxiously awaiting his arrival "My gallant Lombard,'1 said Sir Geoffrey, "is all well, and ore you ready to deliver up possession of the castle?'1 "All is well, Sir Knight,'1 said the Lombard, ,4and the castle is yours on payment of the twenty thousand crowns.1' "Then, Sir Odoart de Ueny," said Sir Geoffrey, addressing that knight, who stood by his side, "take with you twelve knights and one hundred men at arms, and possess yourself of the castle. That once in our power, we shall soon be masters of the town, considering what strength we have with us that strength, ehould it be necessary, may be doubled in a few days Myself will remain with the rest of the army here in silence; lor 1 mean to enter the town by one of the gates, or not at all " Thus saying, he delivered to Sir Odoart the twenty thousand crowns in a bag, with instructions that he should give them trj the Lombard as soon as the French b.rcee

had crossed ihe drawbridge

and numerous other bnnners ftich as the

Earl of Suffolk's, the Lord Stafford's, and the Lord Berkley's, were seen among

the English troops. "Betrayed! betrayed!" 6aid Sir Geof frey de Charni. to those who stood about him. "Gentlemen, if we fly we shall lose all; it will be more advantageous for us to fight valiantly, in the hope that the day

"By St. George '."said the Green Knight, who had approached near enough to hear

De Charm s words, "you epeak truth evil befall him who thinks of flying!11 Then, retreating a little, the English dismounted from their horses, and advancing

on foot, for the most part armed with bat tie axes, they attacked the enemy. The battle was short, but desperate and sanguinary. The English, incensed at the treachery of the French, and the latter infuriated at the unexpected opposi

tion which they encountered, vied with each other in the fury and zeal with which they contested the victory. Six banners and three hundred archers left the main body of the English army, and made for the bridge of Keuillet, where they found the Lord olorceau de Fiennes, and the Lord de Creaui, who guarded it. The

cross-bow-men of St Omer and Aire were also posted between the bridge and Calais, and met a furious assault from their ene mies. They were immediately discomfited and pursued to the river, where more than six hundred of them were drowned. The knights of Picardy for a long time maintained their post against very superior numbers; but reinforcements ptill pouring in to the English from the town, the French were, at length, obliged to surrender, or seek their safety in flight. The Green Knight performed prodigies of valor. He was frequently seen sur rounded by the enemy, but heiving his way through them with his battle-axe. Sir Geoffrey de Charni, Sir Henry do

The banquet passed off cheerfully, with many expressions on the part of the Frenchmen, of wonder and delight at the distinguished rank of the persons to whom they bad been opposed, and the courtesy with which they were treated At its conclusion, King Edward rose from his

seat, and having laid aside his crown, ad vanced bareheaded, except that he wore a chaplet of fine pearls around his head, down the hall, attended by his son and the lords who sat down at the table with him. for the purpose of retiring from the assembly.

the tower, and the English, mounting the horses, made for the gale ot Boulogne.

In the meantime, Sir Geoffrey, with

his banners displayed, and surrounded by

his forces, was awaiting at the. Boulogne

gate, with some impatience, the return of

messengers from the castle. "If thi9 Lombard," he said to the knights who stood

next him, "delays opening the gate, we

The diy was now breaking, and the ate of the. cattle was distinctly visible to 'hose outside, when on a sudden it burst open, and, amidst deafening shouts of "Alannv, Manny, to ihe rescue!' a numei us troop of aiuie i warriors, weil-mouut-e-l, galloped towards ihe French forces The Green Knight led them on, preced td by the bannerol Sir Walter Manny ,

two armies stood by and gazed at the

contention bet ween their respect iv e champions. Twice did Sir Eustace de Kibeau mont fell the Green Knight to the ground ; but he rose, like another Antasus. from his fall each time, apparently with renewed strength and vigor. Their battle-axes were 6truck from each others hands; their spears, which were then resorted to, shivered into a thousand splinters; their swords were the only weapons left to them. With these fhey held for a long tune a doubtful conflict, until at length that of Su Eustace de Ribeaumont broke against the shield of the Green Knight; and the latter, pressing irresistibly upon him. threw him to the ground, and planted his knee upon his breast A tumultu

ous ehout of applause immediately burst from the ranks of the English; and the French, who had already, although fighting with the utmost valor, been defeated

at every point, threw away their arms,

and surrendered themselves prisoners of war.

Brave knight,' said Sir Eustace to his

conqueror, 'I yield to y our superior prow

ess, nor blush to be overcome by strength

like yours 7

'Sir Eustice,' 6aid the Green Knight,

raising his fallen antagonist and returning him the sword which he presented him,

'you ot all men have least cauge to blush for the events of this day. By St. George!

I have encountered many a tall and stal

wart knight in my time, but never onej

who gave me so much trouble as you have

done.'

'May 1 crave your name, courteous

knight,' said Sir Eustice, 'that when the friends of Eustace de Ribeaumont learn that he has been vanquished, they may know that it was by the hands of one who has doubtless distinguished himself in many a fiercer field than this.'

Sir Eustace, said the Green Knight,

fear not that the most fastidious ot your friends will think vour fame for honor or

valor tarnished by surrendering yourself to me. As for my name,' he added, lilting his bearer, 'when next you see these features, you will know it. Shall you re member ihem?' 'They are features, Sir Knight,' said

de Ribeaumont, 'which when once seen,

are not easily forgotten; but 1 would speedily pay my ransom money and regain my liberty when, therefore, 1 pray you, shall we meet again?'

To night at supper, in Calais castle,' said the Green Knight; and as he spoke

the conquerors and the prisoners simul

taneously moved towards the gate of

Boulogne.

That evening a superb banquet was

given in the castle ot Calais, to which the

French and English knights were alike

invited. There was no distinction made

between the guests of the two nations, except that the fables of ihe prisoners were more superbly decorated and more profusely supplied than those of their captors. A table was placed eo an elevated platform at the end of the rowa, the aeti

knight whom I have found most valiant, as well in attacking his enerav, as in defending himself. I oever found any one in battle who gave me, body to body, so murh to do as you have given me to day I adjudge the prize of valor to you, above all the knights of my court, as what is just due to you. The knight would have expressed his sense of the honor conferred, but the king stopped him by taking the chaplet of pearls, which was very rich and hand, some, from his own brow, and placing it on Sir Eustace's head "Sir Eustace," he added, "1 present this chaplet to you as the best combatant this day of either party, whether French or English: and 1 beg you to wear it this year at festivals, for my sake. You are a personablfl gentleman, young and amorous, and well accepted among the ladies; wherefore, if you will only wear it at all public balls, and declare unto them that the King of England gave it to you as the reward of your valor, I will now release you from your captivity, quilting you wholly of your ransom." Thus saying, the king left the ball, after the knight, whose feelings could not find utterance, had knelt down and kissed the monarch's hand in token of gratitude and acquiescence Not only did Sir Eus tace de Hibeaumont, as long as he lived, wear the chaplet in remembrance of the gift of so renowned a prince, but his family ever afterwards bore for Iheir arms three

chaplets garnished with pearls.
