But the queen, his sister, took the piece of sword-blade and put it safely by, for she thought that some day it might help her to revenge her brother's death. Meanwhile, Sir Tristram, being sorely wounded, sat down softly on a little mound and bled passing fast; and in that evil case was found anon by Governale and King Mark's knights.
Then the queen gave Dame Bragwaine, and Governale, Sir Tristram's servant, a little flask, and charged them that La Belle Isault and King Mark should both drink of it on their marriage day, and then should they surely love each other all their lives. Anon, Sir Tristram and Isault, with a great company, took the sea and departed.
So the battle was ordained to be fought in an island near Sir Marhaus' ships, and there Sir Tristram landed on the morrow, with Governale alone attending him for squire, and him he sent back to the land when he had made himself ready. When Sir Marhaus and Sir Tristram were thus left alone, Sir Marhaus said, "Young knight Sir Tristram what doest thou here?
Governale was ever ill at a deception, and began to stammer. 'My lord, he said, 'I fear me there is none other. 'Ah, said his master, 'and where got you that? 'The gentlewoman of my Lady Isoude, said he, 'brought it and bade me mix it in your lordship's wine. 'What? cried Sir Tristram, rising angrily. 'What means this? What trickery is this? 'Oh, my lord, forgive me, cried Governale.
So Sir Andret rode into Cornwall, but Sir Tristram rode after the two knights who had misused him, namely, Sir Sagramour le Desirous, and Sir Dodinas le Savage. And before long he saw them but a little way before him. "Sir," said Governale, "by my advice thou wilt leave them alone, for they be two well-proved knights of Arthur's court."
Then went young Tristram to the fire and loosed the queen from all her bonds and delivered her from death. And after a great while by his good means the king again forgave and lived in peace with her, though never more in the same lodgings. Anon was Tristram sent abroad to France in care of one named Governale.
Midway through the hall there met her Sir Tristram himself with his squire Governale, and the queen sped to him and would have run him through, but for Governale, who snatched the sword from her, though she wounded him in her wrath.
