Le Morte Darthur: resumen de Chapter 440

Chapter 440 de 503 · 4 min para leer el chapter

In Chapter 440, Sir Launcelot and Sir Lavaine drive back King Arthur’s knights, but Launcelot’s unknowing kinsmen attack him and Sir Bors wounds his side. Lavaine supplies another horse, allowing Launcelot to continue fighting, defeat his attackers, and spare three relatives when he sees their faces.

Qué sucede

  1. Sir Launcelot and Sir Lavaine unhorse many opponents and restore confidence to the side opposing King Arthur.
  2. Sir Gawaine suspects Launcelot’s identity but doubts it because of the red sleeve; Arthur knows but refuses to name him.
  3. Nine of Launcelot’s relatives attack without recognizing him, and Sir Bors leaves a broken spearhead lodged in his side.
  4. Lavaine takes the King of Scotland’s horse and helps Launcelot mount despite the surrounding attackers.
  5. The wounded Launcelot defeats his relatives but spares Bors, Ector, and Lionel after seeing their faces.
  6. Launcelot unhorses more than thirty knights with his sword, while Lavaine knocks down ten Knights of the Round Table.

En qué fijarte

Arthur’s deliberate silence preserves the gap between Launcelot’s identity and what the other knights know. That gap allows his relatives to attack him unknowingly.
