The
porter
was
drowsing
on
his
bench
within
the
lodge
,
but
at
the
knock
he
roused
himself
and
,
opening
the
wicket
,
came
hobbling
forth
and
greeted
the
Knight
,
while
a
tame
starling
that
hung
in
a
wicker
cage
within
piped
out
,
"
In
coelo
quies
!
In

"
such
being
the
words
that
the
poor
old
lame
porter
had
taught
him
to
speak
.
"
Where

?
"
"
asked
the
Knight
of
the
old
porter
.
"
He
is
at
meat
,
good
knight
,
and
he
looketh
for
thy
coming
,
"
quoth
the
porter
,
"
for
,
if
I
mistake
not
,
thou
art
Sir
Richard
of
the
Lea

"
I
am
Sir
Richard
of
the
Lea
;
then
I
will
go
seek
him
forthwith
,
"
said
the
Knight
.
"
But
shall
I
not
send
thy
horse
to
stable
?
"
said
the
porter
.
"
By
Our
Lady
,
it
is
the
noblest
nag
,
and
the
best
harnessed
,
that
e

I
saw
in
all
my
life
before

And
he
stroked
the
horse
's
flank
with
his
palm
.

So
saying
,
he
pushed
forward
,
and
,
the
gates
being
opened
,
he
entered
the
stony
courtyard
of
the
Priory

his
men
behind
him

In

whereat
a

of

that
strutted
in

with

to
the
high
eaves
of
