“Indeed,” said the doughty knight, and doffed his high helm, And held it in his hands as he offered his thanks, “I have lingered long enough—may good luck be yours, And He reward you well that all worship bestows! And commend me to that comely one, your courteous wife, Both herself and that other, my honoured ladies, That have trapped their true knight in their trammels so quaint. But if a dullard should dote, deem it no wonder, And through the wiles of a woman be wooed into sorrow, For so was Adam by one, when the world began, And Solomon by many more, and Samson the mighty— Delilah was his doom, and David thereafter Now these were vexed by their devices—‘twere a very joy Was beguiled by Bathsheba, and bore much distress; Could one but learn to love, and believe them not. For these were proud princes, most prosperous of old, Past all lovers lucky, that languished under heaven, bemused. And one al all fell prey To women that they had used. If I be led astray, Methinks I may be excused. (SGGK )

2 Samuel 11 (New International Version) 1 In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king's men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem. 2 One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, 3 and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, "Isn't this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite?" 4 Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. (She had purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then [a] she went back home. 5 The woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, "I am pregnant."a
