Guariʹnos (Admiral)

One of Charlemagne’s paladins, taken captive at the battle of Roncesvalles. He fell to the lot of Marloʹtes, a Moslem, who offered him his daughter in marriage if he would become a disciple of Mahomet. Guariʹnos refused, and was cast into a dungeon, where he lay captive for seven years. A joust was then held, and Admiral Guariʹnos was allowed to try his hand at a target. He knelt before the Moor, stabbed him to the heart, and then vaulted on his grey horse Trebʹozondʹ, and escaped to France.
