At this their master was moved to mirth and drinking off his cup，gave the damsels to drinkafter which he said to the brunette，'O light of the brasier and delight of soulslet us hear thy lovely voicewherewith all that hearken are ravished.'So she took the lute and trilled upon ittill the place was moved to mirth；thentaking all hearts with her graceful bendingsshe sang the following verses：
As thy face livethnone but thee I'll love nor cherish e'er，Till deathnor ever to thy love will I be falseI swear.
O full moonshroudedas it were a veilwith lovelinessAll lovely ones on earth that be beneath thy banners fare.
Thouthat in pleasantness and grace excellest all the fairMay Godthe Lord of heaven and earthbe with thee everywhere！
The man was pleased and drank off his cup；after which he filled again and taking the goblet in his handbeckoned to the plump girl and bade her sing and play. So she took the lute and striking a grief-dispelling measuresang as follows：
If but thy consent be assuredO thou who art all my desireBe all the folk angered 'gainst me；I set not a whit by their ire.
And if thou but show me thy facethy brilliant and beautiful faceI reck not if all the kings of the earth from my vision retire.
Thy favourO thou unto whom all beauty must needs be referred，Of the goods and the sweets of the world is all that I seek and require.
The man was charmed and emptying his cupgave the girls to drink. Then he beckoned to the slender girl and said to her'O houri of Paradisefeed thou our ears with sweet sounds.'So she took the lute and tuning itpreluded and sang the following verses：
Is it not martyrdom that I for thine estrangement dreeSeeing，indeedI cannot liveif thou depart from me？
Is there no judgein Love its lawto judge betwixt us twainto do me justice on thy head and take my wreak of thee？
