maderrFinally got a chance to read my medieval book again, for a bit.
This was from the chapter on The Lord of the Castle. It's talking about when knights had to reknew vows with their lords and stuff:
The count demanded of the future vassal if he wished without reserve to become his man, and he replied, 'I so wish'; then, with his hands clasped and enclosed between those of the count, their alliance was sealed with a kiss.
No one could get why I about died giggling.
