Excerpt from Undine and Other Tales He wore a scarlet mantle over his purple, gold embroidered jerkin a plume Of red and purple feathers waved over his gold-colored barret-cap and from his golden belt hung a glittering jeweled sword. The white courser which carried him was Of lighter make than the generality of chargers, and trod so airily, that the enameled turf seemed scarcely to bend under him.

But you shall yourself be heartily welcome to my poor house, and to the best Of my supper and night lodging.
