postquam enim cogitationem suam, de qua tibi ante dixi, reginae in secreto revelavit, revocavit eum illa ab intentione, ammonens quia nulla ratione conveniat tanto regi amicum suum optimum in necessitate positum auro vendere, immo fidem suam, quae omnibus ornamentis pretiosior est, amore pecuniae perdere.
for after he had discovered to the queen in secret his thought of which I told you before, she withdrew him from that purpose, warning him that it is in no wise meet for a king of such prowess to sell his best friend, when he is now brought to straitness, for gold, nay, more, to lose his honour which is more to be esteemed than all treasures, from love of money.
