Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Romance of Blonde of Oxford and Jehan of Dammartin
Oxford whereupon he rode up to him, and saluted him. The Earl returned the salutation, for he understood French well, having been in France to learn it, and asked our wanderer when he had left that country, why he had quitted his home, and what business had brought him to England. Jean briefly told him his history, and said that he had come to England in search of service. After some conversation, the Earl of Oxford retained Jean of Dammartin as an esquire of his household.
