False recreant! Thou hast shamed thy knighthood and broken thy sworn oath of fealty to me! By God’s wounds, thou art no knight, but a base-born coward who hath turned his back upon his liege! Away! Look not upon thy king again, thou faint-hearted dog! Thou has fled like a thief in the night, leaving thy lord in direst need. Thy honor is forfeited! Go, find a maid’s duty, for the life of a warrior is too harsh for thy cowardly heart! I strip thee of thy sword and spurs. Thou art disinherited and banished from this realm!
