As
soon
as
he
had
landed
,
he
saw
come
riding
towards
him
,
a
knight
dressed
all
in
red
,
upon
a
horse
trapped
in
the
same
colour
.
When
the
red
knight
saw
Sir
Balin
,
and
the
two
swords
he
wore
,
he
thought
it
must
have
been
his
brother
(
for
the
red
knight
was
Sir
Balan
)
,
but
when
he
saw
the
strange
arms
on
his
shield
,
he
forgot
the
thought
,
and
came
against
him
fiercely
.
At
the
first
course
they
overthrew
each
other
,
and
both
lay
swooning
on
the
ground
;
but
Sir
Balin
was
the
most
hurt
and
bruised
,
for
he
was
weary
and
spent
with
travelling
.
402
So
Sir
Balan
rose
up
first
to
his
feet
and
drew
his
sword
,
and
Sir
Balin
painfully
rose
against
him
and
raised
his
shield
.
403
Then
Sir
Balan
smote
him
through
the
shield
and
brake
his
helmet
;
and
Sir
Balin
,
in
return
,
smote
at
him
with
his
fated
sword
,
and
had
wellnigh
slain
his
brother
.
So
they
fought
till
their
breaths
failed
.

Then
Sir
Balin
,
looking
up
,
saw
all
the
castle
towers
stand
full
of
ladies
.
So
they
went
again
to
battle
,
and
wounded
each
other
full
sore
,
and
paused
,
and
breathed
again
,
and
then
again
began
the
fight
;
and
this
for
many
times
they
did
,
till
all
the
ground
was
red
with
blood
.
And
by
now
,
each
had
full
grievously
wounded
the
other
with
seven
great
wounds
,
the
least
of
which
might
have
destroyed
the
mightiest
giant
in
the
world
.
But
still
they
rose
against
each
other
,
although
their
hauberks
now
were
all
unnailed
,
and
they
smiting
at
each
other
s
naked
bodies
with
their
sharp
swords
.
At
the
last
,
Sir
Balan
,
the
younger
brother
,
withdrew
a
little
space
and
laid
him
down
.
405
Then
said
Sir
Balin
le
Savage
,
What
knight
art
thou
?
for
never
before
have
I
found
a
knight
to
match
me
thus
.
406
My
name
,
said
he
,
all
faintly
,
is
Balan
,
brother
to
the
good
knight
Sir
Balin
.
407
Ah
,
God
!
cried
Balin
,
that
ever
I
should
see
this
day
!
and
therewith
fell
down
backwards
in
a
swoon
.

Then
Sir
Balan
crept
with
pain
upon
his
feet
and
hands
,
and
put
his
brother
s
helmet
off
his
head
,
but
could
not
know
him
by
his
face
,
it
was
so
hewed
and
bloody
.
409
But
presently
,
when
Sir
Balin
came
to
,
he
said
,
Oh
!
Balan
,
mine
own
brother
,
thou
hast
slain
me
,
and
I
thee
!
All
the
wide
world
saw
never
greater
grief
!
410
Alas
!
said
Sir
Balan
,
that
I
ever
saw
this
day
;
and
through
mishap
alone
I
knew
thee
not
,
for
when
I
saw
thy
two
swords
,
if
it
had
not
been
for
thy
strange
shield
,
I
should
have
known
thee
for
my
brother
.
