Meliot hath great pity thereof in his heart, and saith to himself that he will die there sooner than Messire Gawain shall die. He clappeth spurs to his horse when he cometh nigh the knights, and overtaketh one of them with such a rush that he thrusteth his spear right through his body, and beareth him down dead. The other was fain to go to the castle for succour when he saw his fellow dead.
For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. Elihu spake moreover, and said, Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?

Death is God's sergeant, God's bailiff, and he arrests in God's name when he comes, but seldom gives warning before he clappeth us on the shoulder; and when he arrests us, though he may stay a little while, and give us leave to pant, and tumble, and toss ourselves for a while upon a bed of languishing, yet at last he will prick our bladder, and let out our life, and then our soul will be poured upon the ground, yea, into hell, if we are not ready and prepared for the life everlasting.
"Sir," say the two Masters to Perceval, "This house that you see here so rich, is the hall royal." "By my faith," saith Perceval, "So ought it well to be, for never saw I none so much of worth." He Looketh all around, and seeth the richest tables of gold and ivory that he saw ever. One of the Masters clappeth his hands thrice, and three and thirty men come into the hall all in a company.
