Hade he no fere bot his fole bi frythez and dounez, / Ne no gome
bot God bi gate wyth to karp, / Til şat he ne3ed
ful neghe into şe Norşe Walez...
[He had no help but his horse in the hills and the woods, / And no one
to talk with but God on the way / Until he drew nigh
unto North Wales....]
(Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, lines 696-98)
