The shepherdess and the knight
Language: English after the Occitan
“Would you like some assistance, shepherdess?”
“I don’t need help looking after my flock, sir knight!
I don’t need help looking after my flock, nightingale!”
“Will you sit with me under this shady [tree], shepherdess?”
“The shade is dewy [and] damp, sir knight!
The shade is dewy [and] damp, nightingale!”
“Over yonder, the heather is dry, shepherdess!”
“Then let’s share an hour there, sir knight!
Then let’s share an hour there, nightingale!”
