Florentijn, daughter of Rodelioen from Abelant, hears of him and sees much of herself in Gloriant's way of doing.
Floerant, Rodelioen's cousin, finds them there; he takes Gloriant's sword (Brant) and betrays them.
Rodelioen is outraged and imprisons Gloriant and Florentijn in order to kill them.
Just before her death Gloriant leaps forward, kills Rodelioen and takes Florentijn to Bruuyswijc to marry her.
