As soon as his hand had touched the hilt he knew it for his sword Excalibur. "You have been too long from me," he said, "and no small damage you have done me. Treason has been at work, and treason shall have its deserts." Then, seeing the scabbard hanging by Accolan's side, he sprang suddenly forward and wrenched it from him, flinging it across the field as far as he could throw it.
That some treason had been practised on him he felt sure, for his sword bit not steel as a good blade should, while the sword in Accolan's hand seemed to have the trenchant edge of Excalibur. "Sir knight," said Accolan, "keep well your guard if you care for life." "Thus will I," answered Arthur, and he dealt him a blow on the helm that nearly brought him to the ground.
Eagerly to battle went the two knights, hewing at each other like giants with their swords. But Arthur's blade bit not like Accolan's, which wounded him at nearly every stroke, so that soon his blood was flowing from a dozen wounds, while his opponent remained unhurt. Arthur was in deep dismay on beholding this.
