Douce amie o le vis cler, or ne vous ai u quester ainc Diu ne fist ce regné ne par terre ne par mer, se t ’i quidoie trover, ne t ’i quesisce. Sweet love, of bright countenance I don’t know where to seek you But God has created no kingdom on land or sea, that I would not search through If I could find you there. —Aucassin and Nicolette (35) Before allowing him to begin his search, Jehan took Lambert to wash. They followed the cry, “li bain sont chaut!” until they came to a bathhouse. The hot tubs were full of people because of the damp weather, so they were forced to wait until the attendent called their names. As they sat there, a young woman in a yellow bliaut came up to them with a smile. Lambert’s first thought was that she must be freezing; her chainse was so loosely laced that he could see her bare skin all the way from under her arms to her thighs.
