About This Chapter
Back in the village, the peasant is exhausted from the day's work. He begs the innkeeper to bring him some wine so he can return home and drink it. The innkeeper refuses, saying that the wine will be par-doned. The peasant tells him that he is still an innocent child and that he should not kill her. He tells the innkeeper that the holy men are incorrigible, and he swears to the king that he will not kill the girl if she says anything. He says that he does not know what vixen is up to, but that the king oflusitania is a holy man who rules over the holy man. He adds that if he were to fall in love with a infidel woman, it would put his power and wealth before God's will. If the king was to lose his position as a religious leader, it could have serious consequences for the kingdom and for the teachings of the holy monk.
