Ah, Agravaine, Agravaine, Jesu forgive it thy soul, for the evil will thou and thy brother Sir Mordred haddest unto Sir Launcelot hath caused all this sorrow." There came one unto Sir Gawaine, and told him how the Queen was led away by Sir Launcelot, and nigh a twenty-four knights slain.
Meanwhile Sir Modred, in great fear and pain, fled from the court, and rode until he found King Arthur, and told him all that had befallen. But the king would scarce believe him till he came and saw the bodies of Sir Agravaine and all the other knights. Then felt he in himself that all was true, and with his passing grief his heart nigh broke. I may not with my honour spare my queen."
She is literally marooned in Class A, all by herself. Yet she insists that she is plain. What do you make of it? The Wise Man stroked his beard. 'My son, he said, 'the matter is simple. True love takes no account of looks. 'No? said Agravaine. 'You two are affinities. Therefore, to you the outward aspect is nothing. Put it like this. Love is a thingummybob who what-d'you-call-its.
'Who was it thou didst see me coming down the road with? 'Aye, who was it I did see thee coming down the road with? 'Who dost thou think thou art? 'Who do I think that I am? 'Aye, who dost thou think thou art? Agravaine could make nothing of it. As a matter of fact, he was hearing the first genuine cross-talk that had ever occurred in those dim, pre-music-hall days.
For he put to the worse Sir Gawaine, Gaheris, Agravaine, Bagdemagus, Kay, Dodinas le Savage, Sagramore le Desirous, Gumret le Petit, and Griflet le Fise de Dieu. All these the first day Sir Palamides struck down to the earth. And then all manner of knights were adread of Sir Palamides, and many called him the Knight with the Black Shield. So that day Sir Palamides had great worship.
Galahad on my right, Agravaine on my left. Squires out of the ring. Time! A speculator among the crowd offered six to one on Galahad, but found no takers. Nor was the public's caution without reason. A moment later the two had met in a cloud of dust, and Agravaine, shooting over his horse's crupper, had fallen with a metallic clang. He picked himself up, and limped slowly from the arena.
After the first day Sir Sagramore forgot all about the giant, and seemed to want to do nothing else except have Yseult show him how to play cat's cradle. They were married two months later, and my father sent my sister Elaine to Camelot to ask for a knight to protect us against a wild unicorn. 'And who bit? asked Agravaine, deeply interested. 'Sir Malibran of Devon.
'Father, I love him. He released her wrist, and stared at her in the uncertain light. 'You love him! 'Yes. 'Then what ? Why? Well, I never did understand women, he said at last, and stumped off down the passage. While this cryptic conversation was in progress, Agravaine, his worst apprehensions realized, was trying to batter down the door.
'I'm beginning to see, said Agravaine. 'What I meant was this. Love is a wizard greater than Merlin. He plays odd tricks with the eyesight. 'Yes, said Agravaine. 'Or, put it another way. Love is a sculptor greater than Praxiteles. He takes an unsightly piece of clay and moulds it into a thing divine. 'I get you, said Agravaine. The Wise Man began to warm to his work. 'Or shall we say
For I was sent for unto my lady your queen, I wot not for what cause; but I was not so soon within the chamber door, but anon Sir Agravaine and Sir Mordred called me traitor and recreant knight. They called thee right, said Sir Gawaine. My lord Sir Gawaine, said Sir Launcelot, in their quarrel they proved themselves not in the right.
