Ainz en avra ancor grant luite. ’ Li troi par qui cest ovre sort Sont devenu taisant et sort, Qar bien sevent Tristran s’en vet; Molt grant dote ont qu’il nes aget. Li rois prist par la main Dinas, Par ire a juré saint Thomas Ne laira n’en face justise Et qu’an ce fu ne soit la mise. Dinas l’entent, molt a grant duel.

In a lengthy and greatly elaborated exchange with Mark (395–468), fundamentally different from the corresponding passage in O,44 she reiterates this admission (Tristran tes niés vint soz cel pin, 415), developing a familiar theme in familiar vocabulary: flatterers have made Mark believe that she and Tristran are guilty of illicit love, but they are innocent (Qar tu penses j’aim Tristran Par puterie et par avien, 407–8, Je t’ai voir dit; si ne m’en croiz, Einz croiz parole fole et vaine, 412–13, Mais li felon, li losengier, Quil vuelent de cort esloignier, Te font acroire la mençonge, 427–9).
