"Sir," say the most part, "Yea, he is there within in this castle, but never was he so destroyed nor so scared as he is at this present. For a knight warreth upon him against whom no knight in the world may endure." Perceval rideth on until he cometh before the master hall, and is alighted on the mounting-stage.
And this had been confirmed by St. Paul's saying in the Epistle to the Romans, "The good which I would, that I do not, but the evil, which I would not, that I do," and again, "I delight in the law of God after the inward man. But I see another law in my members, which warreth against the law of my mind.... O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?"
After that they would have the Psalter; of the same they were soon weary; when it was translated, then they desired other books. All are acceptable, so long and until our giddy brains be satisfied; afterwards they let them lie, and seek after new things; therefore in the end there must come errors among us. That Christ warreth with great Potentates.
"Sir," saith he, "Meseemeth you are without joy." "Lucan," said the King, "Joy hath been somewhat far from me sithence that the Queen hath been dead, and Gawain and the other knights have held aloof from my court so that they deign come hither no longer. Moreover, King Claudas warreth upon me and conquereth my lands so that no power have I to rescue me for default of my knights."
"No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please Him who hath chosen him to be a soldier." Not to be entangled with the affairs of this life! and my heart and soul were in a whirl of them; I might say, in a snarl. And true the words were.
"Sir," saith she, "I have made vow thereof, and moreover a holy hermit hath told me that the knight that warreth upon us may not be overcome of no knight, save I bring him not some of the cloth wherewith the altar in the chapel of the Grave-yard Perilous is covered.
If that he warreth upon you toward the West, send thither one of the best knights of your court that may maintain the war and defend the land against him." The King sojourned at Cardoil of a long space. He believed in God and His sweet Mother right well.
"The Lord's work the Lord's work!" repeated Fleetword, "then go forth; why didst thou not confirm me that before? and I would have hastened, not retarded thee; for, of a verity, my outward man warreth with the inward, and these supporters of the flesh," pointing with his forefinger to the thin and meagre limbs that scarcely merited the compliment, "grow weary in well doing."
'This to my face! Beshrew thee for a knave! replied Sir Wulfric. But the appeal seemed to have gone home. 'Yet thou sayest sooth, he added thoughtfully. 'Go where thou wilt, he added nobly, 'thou art free. Wulfric de Talbot warreth not with babes, and Jakin here shall bear thee company. 'All right, said Robert wildly. 'Jakin will enjoy himself, I think. Come on, Jakin.
And when it came to the morrow and Messire Gawain was minded to depart thence, the Vavasour saith to him, "Sir you may not depart thus, for this door hath not been opened this long while save only yesterday, when I made it be opened before you, to the intent that you should meet on my behalf a certain knight that is fain to slay me, for that the King of Castle Mortal hath had his hold herewithin, he that warreth on the Queen of the Maidens.
