Roswall and Lillian
''Roswall and Lillian'' is a medieval Scottish chivalric romance.〔Laura A. Hibbard, ''Medieval Romance in England'' p290 New York Burt Franklin,1963〕 A late appearing tale, it nevertheless draws heavily on folkloric motifs for its account of an exiled prince, reduced to poverty, who rises from it to win a princess.
==Synopsis==
Roswall frees some of his father's prisoners, and so is exiled. The treacherous steward who accompanies him threatens to murder him if he does not hand over all his possession and swear to become his servant; then he abandons him to find finer servant. A woman takes Roswall in and sends him to school with her son; he does so well as to impress the master, who brought him to the king to take into service. The king's daughter Lillian fell in love with him.
A tourney is held, to honor Lillian's marriage with the treacherous steward. Roswall goes hunting, but a white knight finds him and gives him a horse and armor to fight with, and he wins but flees before recognition; the next day, a gray knight; the third, a green knight.
The night before the wedding, the knights come and salute the king and queen and Lillian, but not the steward. When asked why, given that he's their king's son, they say they do not see their king's son, but then they find him. The king asks, and Roswall tells his story. The steward is hanged, and Roswall marries Lillian and rewards the old woman who had given him shelter.
