Excerpt from Freida the Jongleur, Vol. 1 of 3 He was then in the prime of life, a celebrated warrior, being the hero of many a hard -fought battle; excelled in all knightly accomplishments; and was so popular among the ruling powers of Chris tendom that he expected shortly to be elected Emperor of Germany besides which, he held at command the much disputed-for crown of Arragon.
