Excerpt from The Story of Horn and Rimenhild Eh, HR is a very sophisticated product. While the former has only some short lines, the latter comprises about alexandrines. In tone HR is courtly and feudal, in style elaborate and refined. It is fashioned in the guise of an epic chanson de geste, and contains abundant evidence of having been composed by a well-informed, cultivated, and pious man for the upper classes of anglo-norman society.
