She said, 'This is a strange thing That you amuse yourself like a man, Going out in the wind and the scorching sun When I had a special image of you, When, with my own two hands, I formed you And with all the beauty I had in store I have drawn so much of it together in you. One thousand people accuse me of being miserly For the beauty with which you are filled to the brim. I have taken away from one thousand people The beauty of which you were also made. There are one thousand women today Who desire you very much For the beauty that they see there For in you being so convincing (as a man) they believe That you have something that, indeed, you have not. And because of this they who now love you greatly, Those (same women) who would hate you with all their hearts If they really knew how you were made - They would feel themselves to be maltreated In that all their hopes and expectations came to an end. You certainly insult me and do me a great wrong In leading your life in such a way. You must not go into the woods to meet with others Jousting, hawking or hunting with a bow, Away with you from all of this, said Nature. Go to the (bed)-chamber and stitch a seam That is what Nature wishes you to do You are not Silentius.

Whoever saw him jousting, out there without his cloak, His shield held en cantiel just before his sword hilt and such his scabbard was protected2 And then at the unseating (of his opponent) The lance he sets at rest upon the falter3, They may well say that Nurture Can do much work to overcome Nature When she can teach such accomplishments To such a soft and tender woman. Many a knight who was thrown by him [Silence], Had he only been aware And may at last have known the truth, What dreadful shame he would have felt That a woman (so) tender, weak and soft And who, except complexion, possessed nothing of being a male, With the clothing and the bearing of a man, Could have struck him down with her lance. The Oxford English Dictionary gives quintain (1440) a similar meaning to a target. However, quintaine (1180) in the Dictionairre de l'Ancien Franais gives a jousting dummy serving as a target when practising with a lance. The names probably dates back to the traditions of the Roman army who used 'dummies' made up of five pieces of armour. The shield thus worn appears to have been termed 'ecu en cantiel'. The shield which is large and hollow and charged with ermine ... is suspended from a very long guige in front of the left thigh, immediately behind the sword hilt, thus covering the upper part of the scabbard. Rev. W. Bramston, A History of the Abbey Church of Minster, Isle of Sheppey, Kent. (1896). faltre: a piece of felt on the saddle where the lance is placed when at rest.

Document 4 WLC/LM/8, ff. 31v-32r : John Gower, Confessio Amantis, Book 2, lines 644-652 and 678-713, The Tale of Constance (composed c.1393, English) Transcription and translation by Pamela Doohan e moder which e saudan bare Was an a lyue and oght is Vnto hir selue . if so it is My son hir wedd in is manere an haue I lost my ioyes here For myn astate shal so be lassed enkend us she ha compassed Be sleight how at she may begile Hir sone . and fell wiinne a while ...

Thus thinking, she contrived how she might deceive and beguile her son. And within a while fell When Constance came forth with the Romans, their clerics and citizens, the mother had made them a rich feast. And when they were at their most joyful, she spread her secret envy with false conspiracy, and she slaughtered those that had been in agreement to the marriage, either openly or in private, everyone along the table as they were seated, in a sudden rage; her own son was not unpunished, but died in the same way as the others. But what the high God will spare will not come to any peril. This worthy maiden [Constance] stood then, as they say, scared to death.

The dishes, the cups, together with everything, were covered with blood. She saw them die on every side - no wonder that she wept and cried, making many a woeful moan.

She arranged and devised, as she thought, a bare ship without a rudder, to put the girl and enough possessions and provisions for five years together, to wherever the wind would drive it, and she put it upon the wild waves.
