Soon
after
,
they
saw
before
them
a
city
passing
fair
,
and
between
them
and
the
city
was
a
meadow
newly
mown
,
wherein
were
many
goodly
tents
.
“
Seest
thou
yonder
blue
pavilion
?
”
said
the
damsel
to
Sir
Beaumains
;
“
it
is
Sir
Perseant
’
s
,
the
lord
of
that
great
city
,
whose
custom
is
,
in
all
fair
weather
,
to
lie
in
this
meadow
,
and
joust
with
his
knights
.
”
852
And
as
she
spake
,
Sir
Perseant
,
who
had
espied
them
coming
,
sent
a
messenger
to
meet
Sir
Beaumains
,
and
to
ask
him
if
he
came
in
war
or
peace
.
“
Say
to
thy
lord
,
”
he
answered
,
“
that
I
care
not
whether
of
the
twain
it
be
.
”
So
when
the
messenger
gave
this
reply
,
Sir
Perseant
came
out
to
fight
with
Sir
Beaumains
.
And
making
ready
,
they
rode
their
steeds
against
each
other
;
and
when
their
spears
were
shivered
asunder
,
they
fought
with
their
swords
.
And
for
more
than
two
hours
did
they
hack
and
hew
at
each
other
,
till
their
shields
and
hauberks
were
all
dinted
with
many
blows
,
and
they
themselves
were
sorely
wounded
.
And
at
the
last
,
Sir
Beaumains
smote
Sir
Perseant
on
the
helm
,
so
that
he
fell
grovelling
on
the
earth
.
And
when
he
unlaced
his
helm
to
slay
him
,
the
damsel
prayed
for
his
life
.
“
That
will
I
grant
gladly
,
”
answered
Sir
Beaumains
,
“
for
it
were
pity
such
a
noble
knight
should
die
.
853
”
“
Grammercy
!
”
said
Sir
Perseant
,
“
for
now
I
certainly
know
that
it
was
thou
who
slewest
my
brother
,
the
Black
Knight
,
Sir
Pereard
;
and
overcame
my
brothers
,
the
Green
Knight
,
Sir
Pertolope
,
and
the
Red
Knight
,
Sir
Perimones
;
and
since
thou
hast
overcome
me
also
,
I
will
do
thee
homage
and
fealty
,
and
place
at
thy
command
one
hundred
knights
to
do
thy
bidding
.

But
when
the
damsel
saw
Sir
Perseant
overthrown
,
she
marvelled
greatly
at
the
might
of
Sir
Beaumains
,
and
said
,
“
What
manner
of
man
may
ye
be
,
for
now
am
I
sure
that
ye
be
come
of
noble
blood
?
And
truly
,
never
did
woman
revile
knight
as
I
have
done
thee
,
and
yet
ye
have
ever
courteously
borne
with
me
,
which
surely
never
had
been
were
ye
not
of
gentle
blood
and
lineage
.
”
855
“
Lady
,
”
replied
Sir
Beaumains
,
“
a
knight
is
little
worth
who
may
not
bear
with
a
damsel
;
and
so
whatsoever
ye
said
to
me
I
took
no
heed
,
save
only
that
at
times
when
your
scorn
angered
me
,
it
made
me
all
the
stronger
against
those
with
whom
I
fought
,
and
thus
have
ye
furthered
me
in
my
battles
.
But
whether
I
be
born
of
gentle
blood
or
no
,
I
have
done
you
gentle
service
,
and
peradventure
will
do
better
still
,
ere
I
depart
from
you
.
”
856
“
Alas
!
”
said
she
,
weeping
at
his
courtesy
,
“
forgive
me
,
fair
Sir
Beaumains
,
all
that
I
have
missaid
and
misdone
against
you
.
”
“
With
all
my
heart
,
”
said
he
;
“
and
since
you
now
speak
fairly
to
me
,
I
am
passing
glad
of
heart
,
and
methinks
I
have
the
strength
to
overcome
whatever
knights
I
shall
henceforth
encounter
.
”
857
Then
Sir
Perseant
prayed
them
to
come
to
his
pavilion
,
and
set
before
them
wines
and
spices
,
and
made
them
great
cheer
.

So
they
rested
that
night
;
and
on
the
morrow
,
the
damsel
and
Sir
Beaumains
rose
,
and
heard
mass
.
And
when
they
had
broken
their
fast
,
they
took
their
leave
of
Sir
Perseant
.
“
Fair
damsel
,
”
said
he
“
whither
lead
ye
this
knight
?
”
“
Sir
,
”
answered
she
,
“
to
the
Castle
Dangerous
,
where
my
sister
is
besieged
by
the
Knight
of
the
Redlands
.
”
“
I
know
him
well
,
”
said
Sir
Perseant
,
“
for
the
most
perilous
knight
alive
—
a
man
without
mercy
,
and
with
the
strength
of
seven
men
.
God
save
thee
,
Sir
Beaumains
,
from
him
!
and
enable
thee
to
overcome
him
,
for
the
Lady
Lyones
,
whom
he
besiegeth
,
is
as
fair
a
lady
as
there
liveth
in
this
world
.
”
“
Thou
sayest
truth
,
sir
,
”
said
the
damsel
;
“
for
I
am
her
sister
;
and
men
call
me
Linet
,
or
the
Wild
Maiden
.
”
“
Now
,
I
would
have
thee
know
,
”
said
Sir
Perseant
to
Sir
Beaumains
,
“
that
the
Knight
of
the
Redlands
hath
kept
that
siege
more
than
two
years
,
and
prolongeth
the
time
hoping
that
Sir
Lancelot
,
or
Sir
Tristram
,
or
Sir
Lamoracke
,
may
come
and
battle
with
him
;
for
these
three
knights
divide
between
them
all
knighthood
;
and
thou
if
thou
mayest
match
the
Knight
of
the
Redlands
,
shall
well
be
called
the
fourth
knight
of
the
world
.
”
“
Sir
,
”
said
Sir
Beaumains
,
“
I
would
fain
have
that
good
fame
;
and
truly
,
I
am
come
of
great
and
honourable
lineage
.
And
so
that
you
and
this
fair
damsel
will
conceal
it
,
I
will
tell
ye
my
descent
.
”
And
when
they
swore
to
keep
it
secret
,
he
told
them
,
“
My
name
is
Sir
Gareth
of
Orkney
,
my
father
was
King
Lot
,
and
my
mother
the
Lady
Belisent
,
King
Arthur
’
s
sister
.
859
Sir
Gawain
,
Sir
Agravain
,
and
Sir
Gaheris
,
are
my
brethren
,
and
I
am
the
youngest
of
them
all
.
But
,
as
yet
King
Arthur
and
the
court
know
me
not
,
who
I
am
.
”
When
he
had
thus
told
them
,
they
both
wondered
greatly
.
860
And
the
damsel
Linet
sent
the
dwarf
forward
to
her
sister
,
to
tell
her
of
their
coming
.
Then
did
Dame
Lyones
inquire
what
manner
of
man
the
knight
was
who
was
coming
to
her
rescue
.
And
the
dwarf
told
her
of
all
Sir
Beaumains
’
deeds
by
the
way
:
how
he
had
overthrown
Sir
Key
,
and
left
him
for
dead
;
how
he
had
battled
with
Sir
Lancelot
,
and
was
knighted
of
him
;
how
he
had
fought
with
,
and
slain
,
the
thieves
;
how
he
had
overcome
the
two
knights
who
kept
the
river
passage
;
how
he
had
fought
with
,
and
slain
,
the
Black
Knight
;
and
how
he
had
overcome
the
Green
Knight
,
the
Red
Knight
,
and
last
of
all
,
the
Blue
Knight
,
Sir
Perseant
.
Then
was
Dame
Lyones
passing
glad
,
and
sent
the
dwarf
back
to
Sir
Beaumains
with
great
gifts
,
thanking
him
for
his
courtesy
,
in
taking
such
a
labour
on
him
for
her
sake
,
and
praying
him
to
be
of
good
heart
and
courage
.
And
as
the
dwarf
returned
,
he
met
the
Knight
of
the
Redlands
,
who
asked
him
whence
he
came
.
“
I
came
here
with
the
sister
of
my
lady
of
the
castle
,
”
said
the
dwarf
,
“
who
hath
been
now
to
King
Arthur
’
s
court
and
brought
a
knight
with
her
to
take
her
battle
on
him
.
