Aucassin et Nicholette is a medieval French chantefable (sung story) probably from the 13th century. Aucassin, a Christian count's son, and Nicolette, a Saracen slave girl, desperately want to marry, but the count forbids it and imprisons the lovers, who eventually escape. After many romantic and occasionally farcical adventures, Nicolette is revealed to be a Saracen princess and the lovers wed.
