:28:00
My worldly goods are what I stand in.
I have no armor and no warhorse.

:28:05
But I must ride against John's knights
at Ashby, or they will win.

:28:08
A horse and gear would borrow
from the ransom.

:28:12
Then I'll seek them elsewhere.
:28:15
You'll find me at the sign
of the longbow.

:28:17
Here is my hand,
in token of my pledge to you.

:28:24
Why do you look at me thus, Isaac?
:28:26
This is the first time I touch a Saxon hand
in friendship, Sir lvanhoe.

:28:32
It is Richard's hand you touch.
:29:00
Now for thy collar, good squire.
Kneel down.

:29:03
A cow jumped the moon
But a fool, he jumps higher

:29:06
From Wamba the serf
To Wamba the squire

:29:13
Oh, strike, Sir lvanhoe,
while I still have me courage.

:29:17
Then off come your shackles.
:29:19
Oh, no. Make sure it's the shackles,
not my head.

:29:29
There.
:29:31
May your next collar be no heavier
than a pretty woman's arms.

:29:34
Oh, that, sire, is a collar
that I shall change every day.

:29:38
When they first put this on me, sire,
I was 11 years old.

:29:42
My father died with his
still around his neck.

:29:46
I feel very strange.
:29:49
Strange? To be free?
:29:52
Yes, and I could wish that the whole
of England could feel as strange as I do.

:29:57
And so they shall,
as soon as Richard's king again.
