This project encodes various chapbook, picture book, and other versions of the medieval romance story, Valentine and Orson, using the extensible markup language for detailed presentation of the text. The goal of the project is to create a digital archive of available versions of this story with project specific encoding guidelines created in accordance with the Text Encoding Initiative P5 Guidelines. The editions and project guidelines are available on the TEI Archiving, Publishing, and Access Service and GitHub repositories.

Texts for this project were selected from the available collections at the Beinecke Rare Books Library, Rare Books and Special Collections at McGill University and the Baldwin Library of Historical Children's Literature George A. Smathers Libraries at University of Florida.

Text is presented with no corrections or normalizations to spellings or printing errors.

Punctuation spacing has been normalized in cases where excessive spacing exists.

Original quotation marks or lack thereof have been preserved. In all cases of spoken dialogue the “said” tag was used.

Hyphenation for line breaks and page breaks has not been retained. All other hyphenation and dash usage has been retained.

Texts are presented with limited interpretive mark up. Only the main body of the story has been encoded. Images for pages not encoded are provided. See descriptive outline below.

ONCE on a time an Emperor, a man of might and fame,Married a wife, and fair was she, and Bellisant her name;And fair and happy were their lives, until an evil man(he was the High Priest of the Court) an evil tale began,Of how the lady was not true unto her husband dear:The Emperor believed the tale, and rose up in great fear,And drove poor Bellisant away; in haste and dire mischanceShe took her way to Pepin's Court (her brother, King of France)
1
And as she fled, weighed down by grief and sense of cruel scorn,Lo, in the forest two fair sons to Bellisant were born;But while her servant went to buy some food, a great she-bearPoor Bellisant ran after her, with many a sigh and moan;In vain,—and when she turned again, the other child was gone! 2
Now, Pepin chanced that very day to hunt with all his trainIn that same wood, and found the child ere she came back again;And took him home, and brought him up, and gave him all thing fine—Apparel, horses, and a name,—so he was VALENTINE.And brave and fair he grew,—King Pepin's daughter loved him well;The sons were jealous. Now will I his brother's story tell. 3 Editor's Note: These two pages had a block of text that ran over both. The text is transcribed as if the pages were one page. Both page images are provided. The she-bear and her savage cubs, they saved the child alive,And nursed him well, and tended him,—well did he grow and thrive,They called him ORSON; in the woods he lived, a strong wild man,And all he fought he killed with ease; and so a wicked planWas made by Pepin's sons for getting rid of Valentine,Whom they induced to fight wih him, by flattering words and fine.But Valentine was conqueror, and Orson owned his might,And served and followed him alway: and they were squire and knight.
Now, in that land there dwelt a man, the Green Knight he was called,Who by his strength and magic arts a lady fair enthralled,And kept in a prison dark and strong, and none could set her free;Not even Valentine prevailed, with all his bravery. 6 But Orson threw the Green Knight down, and bound him with a chain,And set the lady free; both brothers then start off to gainThe Green Knight's castle-gates,—two roaring lions kept guard there,But down they crouched when they beheld the brothers void of fear.
7
And there within the castle hall they saw a head of brass,That uttered marvels,—of their birth, and how it came to pass;How in a convent lonely was their mother Bellisant;How the King and Queen of France were their uncle and their aunt;How the High Priest had confessed his lies, with many tears and groans;How the Emperor, their father, was in search of wife and sons.So the lost were found, the wrong made right, by all good rule and line;They married well, and lived long years—ORSON and VALENTINE. 8
