| So it happed there was a duke that hight Ansirus, and he was of the kin of Sir Launcelot. |
|
| And therewith Sir Launcelot alighted, and tied his horse to the same tree, and prayed the lady to unarm him. |
|
| Then Sir Launcelot drew his sword and put the stroke aback, and clave his head unto the paps. |
|
| Launcelot entered in so armed, for he found no gate nor door but it was open. |
|
| But Sir Launcelot rode overthwart and endlong in a wild forest, and held no path but as wild adventure led him. |
|
| And then Sir Launcelot told them how he had been obliged to put himself into a cart. |
|
| What, said Sir Launcelot, is he a thief and a knight and a ravisher of women? |
|
| Or, sometimes, she was the Elaine of an unknown Launcelot, safely guarding his shield. |
|
| I am not causer, said Sir Launcelot, for with falsehood ye would have had slain me with treason, and now it is fallen on you both. |
|
| When Sir Launcelot heard this he was passing heavy, and wist not what to do. |
|
| Then Sir Launcelot alit and entered into the chapel and there he saw an old man dead, in a white shirt of passing fine cloth. |
|
| Then forthwithal Gareth rushed upon Sir Launcelot, and gave him a great stroke upon his helm so hard that he was astonied. |
|
| Wherefore the king called unto him Sir Launcelot, and prayed him to encounter with that knight. |
|
| But what Sir Launcelot did was of his great gentleness and courtesy. |
|
| But Sir Launcelot would joust only when a great tournament was held. |
|
| So Launcelot sailed to his Duchy of Guienne with his following, and Gawaine soon followed with an army, and he beguiled Arthur to go with him. |
|
| It was a pedigreed dog, named Darley's Launcelot of Middlesex. |
|
| There was presently an incident which centered the general interest upon this Sir Launcelot. |
|
| Thereupon Sir Launcelot alighted, and tied his horse to the elm. |
|
| Among their great leaders may be mentioned Pascal, Nicole, and Launcelot. |
|
|
|
| Well, it was noble to see Launcelot and the boys swarm up onto that scaffold and heave sheriffs and such overboard. |
|
| A trap is laid for Launcelot, by the king's command, and Sir Launcelot walks into it. |
|
| Nor can we give great praise to the characterisation of Sir Launcelot. |
|
| There Sir Launcelot unarmed him, and set his harness by him, and went to bed, and anon he fell on sleep. |
|
| Now, damosel, said Sir Launcelot, will ye any more service of me? |
|
| Sir Launcelot met up with old King Agrivance of Ireland unexpectedly last weok over on the moor south of Sir Balmoral le Merveilleuse's hog dasture. |
|
| Then Sir Launcelot went into the hall, and there came afore him three score ladies and damsels, and all kneeled unto him, and thanked God and him of their deliverance. |
|
| Well, there couldn't be a more contented or comfortable sight than Sir Launcelot in his noble armor sitting in gracious serenity at the end of a yard of snowy church-warden. |
|
| Truly, said Sir Launcelot, yonder one knight shall I help, for it were shame for me to see three knights on one, and if he be slain I am partner of his death. |
|
| Well, as to that, said Sir Launcelot, advise you well, for ye may choose whether ye will die or live, for an ye be yielden, it shall be unto Sir Kay. |
|
| Then came Sir Pertolope from the castle, and there encountered with him Sir Lionel, and there Sir Pertolope the green knight smote down Sir Lionel, brother to Sir Launcelot. |
|
| New to the troupe will be Matthew Barksby in the role of the much-wooed wealthy heiress, Portia and Paul Thomas as Launcelot Gobbo and lady in waiting Nerissa. |
|
| Jamie Beamish is at his hipshaking, lip-curling best as he transforms servant Launcelot Gobbo into a gloriously over-thetop Elvis Presley impersonator. |
