Legend now both fair and true?
Hello everybody.
I'm reading 'Little Women' by Louisa May Alcott chapter 46.
Upon the last lid’s polished field—
Legend now both fair and true
A gallant knight bears on his shield,
‘Amy’ in letters gold and blue.
Is there any legend carved into the lid of the chest? Or the writer means Amey the owner of the chest got married with a man who was like a gallant knight?
Thanks for the help ??!
