Not too many outside the ones you've already said Larry Send a noteboard - 19/02/2013 02:20:23 AM
Maybe Bertrand Bar-sur-Aube's Girart de Vienne, which is part of the cycle of tales surrounding Roland (or rather the other Paladins and Roland for spells)? Probably the entire Matter of France would show shifts in the language, but I really haven't tried Old French beyond the books you already own.

Apparently the word "lay" meaning "story" comes from Irish "laid", meaning "song". *NM* Tom - 20/02/2013 07:54:47 PM 255 Views
