A troubadour from foreign lands

Puzzle

A troubadour from foreign lands.
To a lady fair came singing;
"O lady bright,
from thine own true knight
A message I am bringing:
He lies in the mountains near my first,
He dares not come to thee;
The foe accurst would on him'burst,
He therefore sendeth me.
And he biddeth me tell thee to seek my next,
Where he will surely meet thee;
O! be not vexed,
nor with fear perplex'd,
For thine own true love shall greet thee."
Like a t.mid fawn,
at early dawn,
To my second the lady hied;
And at his word, she met her lord,
Who had my whole supplied.
