/*
And all men praised Herzeleide, the queen, as both fair and true,
And the queen of three kingdoms was she, of Waleis and fair Anjou,
Of these twain was she aye the ruler; and beside them in far Norgals      705
Did she bear the crown and sceptre, in the city of Kingrivals.
And so dear did she hold her husband, if never a maid might win
So gallant a man, what recked she? She counted it not for sin.

As for half a year he was absent she looked for his coming sure,
For but in the thought of that meeting might the life of the queen endure.      710

Right-hand line numbers

Enclose poetry in no-wraps unless the project comments say otherwise. Replicate any indentation. If there are line numbers, keep them and place them at least six spaces past the right-hand end of the line, even if they are on the left side of the poetry in the original (as shown in the next example).
