First lines
Sir Oluf rode forth over hill and lea / Full seven mile broad and seven mile wide, / But no one living discovered he / Who a joust with him dare ride.
He saw, whilst forward glancing, / A gallant knight advancing, / Black was his courser, his helm was lac'd, / He came with bounding haste.
