A SONG CONTEST.
How the Poets of Provence Amaied
- Their Kinv nud Tbemiclvei -In
the Oluen Times.
By arid by King Rene came into the
hall and Took his seat on the throne.
lie wore .a rich robe of purple velvet,
embroidered all over in the brig, est
silks and gold; and after him came a
great trouxie of troubadours and min
nesingers, some carrying their own
harps, and some followed by little
pages who bore their masters' belong
ings. :
As the good king Rene looked at his
gay company and the brilliantly hung
hall and the long tables, his eyes
sparkled with delight, and his heart
swelled with pleasure when he thought
of the coming contest ; for he was never
so happy as w-hen thus surrounded by
his dear troubadours, whom he loved to
make in every way as happy as possi
ble.
Thenwhen all was ready, a' gayly
dressed herald came into the hall, and
kneeling before the king, atfd bow
ing to the assembled company, an
nounced the coming of the two counts,
William and Reynaurd. All the other
troubadours and minnesingers stood
up, . and King ttene smiled graciously
as the two noblemen entered, followed
by their pages, Pierrot and Henri, each
of whom carried a viol bedecked with
long silken ribbons.
When the counts had saluted the
kirg and taken their places before him
he commanded a seneschal to bear in
the prize, and so the beautiful collar
of jewels was brought in upon a silver
tray and placed on a carved bench be
side the king. Then a herald stepped
out, and, lifting the collar upon the
point of a flower-wreathed lance, dis
played it to all the company and an
nounced the terms of the contest of
song about to take place. -
All of which was certainly a great
deal better and prettier than the cus
toms of most of the royal courts of
that time. In all the lands, except
where King Rene lived, when .the peo
ple wanted entertainment they used to
gateher together to see contests called
tournaments, where noble lords tried
to overthrow each other with real
lances on which there were no garlands
But King Rene could not endure such
barbarous displays, and so in his palace
no one fought another except with
pretty verses, and the best poet was the.
champion. Eveleen. Stein, in St. Nich
