And
now
King
Arthur
,
having
utterly
dispersed
and
overwhelmed
those
kings
who
had
so
long
delayed
his
coronation
,
turned
all
his
mind
to
overthrow
the
Saxon
heathens
who
yet
in
many
places
spoiled
the
land
.
Calling
together
,
therefore
,
his
knights
and
men
-
at
-
arms
,
he
rode
with
all
his
hosts
to
York
,
where
Colgrin
,
the
Saxon
,
lay
with
a
great
army
;
and
there
he
fought
a
mighty
battle
,
long
and
bloody
,
and
drove
him
into
the
city
,
and
besieged
him
.
Then
Baldulph
,
Colgrin
s
brother
,
came
secretly
with
six
thousand
men
to
assail
King
Arthur
and
to
raise
the
siege
.
182
But
King
Arthur
was
aware
of
him
,
and
sent
six
hundred
horsemen
and
three
thousand
foot
to
meet
and
fall
on
him
instead
.
This
therefore
they
did
,
encountering
them
at
midnight
,
and
utterly
defeated
them
,
till
they
fled
away
for
life
.
But
Baldulph
,
full
of
grief
,
resolved
to
share
his
brother
s
peril
;
wherefore
he
shaved
his
head
and
beard
,
and
disguised
himself
as
a
jester
,
and
so
passed
through
King
Arthur
s
camp
,
singing
and
playing
on
a
harp
,
till
by
degrees
he
drew
near
to
the
city
walls
,
where
presently
he
made
himself
known
,
and
was
drawn
up
by
ropes
into
the
town
.
183
Anon
,
while
Arthur
closely
watched
the
city
,
came
news
that
full
six
hundred
ships
had
landed
countless
swarms
of
Saxons
,
under
Cheldric
,
on
the
eastern
coast
.
At
that
he
raised
the
siege
,
and
marched
straight
to
London
,
and
there
increased
his
army
,
and
took
counsel
with
his
barons
how
to
drive
the
Saxons
from
the
land
for
evermore
.

Then
with
his
nephew
,
Hoel
,
King
of
the
Armorican
Britons
,
who
came
with
a
great
force
to
help
him
,
King
Arthur
,
with
a
mighty
multitude
of
barons
,
knights
,
and
fighting
men
,
went
swiftly
up
to
Lincoln
,
which
the
Saxons
lay
besieging
.
And
there
he
fought
a
passing
fierce
battle
,
and
made
grievous
slaughter
,
killing
above
six
thousand
men
,
till
the
main
body
of
them
turned
and
fled
.
But
he
pursued
them
hotly
into
the
wood
of
Celidon
,
where
,
sheltering
themselves
among
the
trees
from
his
arrows
,
they
made
a
stand
,
and
for
a
long
season
bravely
defended
themselves
.
185
Anon
,
he
ordered
all
the
trees
in
that
part
of
the
forest
to
be
cut
down
,
leaving
no
shelter
or
ambush
;
and
with
their
trunks
and
branches
made
a
mighty
barricade
,
which
shut
them
in
and
hindered
their
escape
.
After
three
days
,
brought
nigh
to
death
by
famine
,
they
offered
to
give
up
their
wealth
of
gold
and
silver
spoils
,
and
to
depart
forthwith
in
their
empty
ships
;
moreover
,
to
pay
tribute
to
King
Arthur
when
they
reached
their
home
,
and
to
leave
him
hostages
till
all
was
paid
.
186
This
offer
,
therefore
,
he
accepted
,
and
suffered
them
to
depart
.
But
when
they
had
been
a
few
hours
at
sea
,
they
repented
of
their
shameful
flight
,
and
turned
their
ships
back
again
,
and
landing
at
Totnes
,
ravaged
all
the
land
as
far
as
the
Severn
,
and
,
burning
and
slaying
on
all
sides
,
bent
their
steps
towards
Bath
.
187
When
King
Arthur
heard
of
their
treachery
and
their
return
,
he
burned
with
anger
till
his
eyes
shone
like
two
torches
,
and
then
he
swore
a
mighty
oath
to
rest
no
more
until
he
had
utterly
destroyed
those
enemies
of
God
and
man
,
and
had
rooted
them
for
ever
out
of
the
land
of
Britain
.

Then
marching
hotly
with
his
armies
on
to
Bath
,
he
cried
aloud
to
them
,
Since
these
detestable
impious
heathens
disdain
to
keep
their
faith
with
me
,
to
keep
faith
with
God
,
to
whom
I
sware
to
cherish
and
defend
this
realm
,
will
now
this
day
avenge
on
them
the
blood
of
all
that
they
have
slain
in
Britain
!
189
In
like
manner
after
him
spoke
the
archbishop
,
standing
upon
a
hill
,
and
crying
that
to
-
day
they
should
fight
both
for
their
country
and
for
Paradise
,
For
whoso
,
he
said
,
shall
in
this
holy
war
be
slain
,
the
angels
shall
forthwith
receive
him
;
for
death
in
this
cause
shall
be
penance
and
absolution
for
all
sins
.
190
At
these
words
every
man
in
the
whole
army
raged
with
hatred
,
and
pressed
eagerly
to
rush
upon
those
savages
.
