'Yet one thing for a shame I deemed it--In my kingdom 'twas told to me Gamuret Angevin, my father, the best of all knights should be 600 That ever bestrode a charger--Then so was my will and mind, That, afar from my kingdom faring, my father I thought to find; And since then strife hath been my portion, for forth from my kingdoms twain A mighty host and powerful 'neath my guidance hath crossed the main, And I lusted for deeds of knighthood; if I came to a goodly land, 605 Then I rested not till its glory paid tribute into mine hand. And thus ever I journeyed further--I won love from two noble queens, Olympia and Klauditté; Sekundillé the third hath been. And well have I served fair women!--Now first must I learn to-day That my father is dead! My brother, the tale of thy ventures say.' 610 And Parzival quoth, 'Since I seek it, The Grail, in full many a fight, Both far and near, have I striven, in such wise as beseems a knight, And my hand of their fame hath robbed them who never before might fall-- If it please ye the tale to hearken, lo! here will I name them all!' 'King Schirniel of Lirivoin, and his brother of Avendroin, King Mirabel, 615 King Piblesun of Lorneparz, of Rozokarz, King Serabel, Of Sirnegunz, King Senilgorz, and Strangedorz of Villegarunz, Rogedal the Count of Mirnetalle and Laudunal of Pleyedunz. From Semblidag King Zyrolan, from Itolac Onipreiz, From Zambron the Count Plenischanz, and Duke Jerneganz of Jeropleis, 620 Count Longefiez of Teuteleunz, Duke Marangliess of Privegarz, From Lampregun Count Parfoyas, from Pictacon Duke Strennolas; Postefar of Laudundrehte, Askalon's fair king, Vergulacht, Duke Leidebron of Redunzehte, and from Pranzile Count Bogudaht, Collevâl of Leterbé, Jovedast of Arl, a Provençal, 625 Count Karfodyas of Tripparûn, all these 'neath my spear must fall. In knightly joust I o'erthrew them the while I the Grail must seek! Would I say those I felled in _battle_, methinks I o'er-long must speak, It were best that I here keep silence--Of those who were known to me, Methinks that the greater number I here shall have named to ye!' 630
