From Tristan by Fottfried von Strassburg. Pgs 302-305.
Tristan's honor makes him not want to love Isolde but everything else tells him that he needs to be with her and love her. Love is a forbidden fruit for them and because of this they want each other even more. Connection: This story makes me think of the Princess Bride and how Wesley who was Buttercup's "farm boy" loved her and she loved him but they were afraid to tell each other.
