But Lancelot, who defended himself very well, managed to slice a piece of flesh from his side, right from under the knight's raised, sword wielding arm. But this deft strike of Lancelot's also caused more than half a foot of his sword blade to break off. Fuming, and cursing his death and obstinate courage, the giant knight quickly yelled out, "Vassal, now you will die for sure!" And he quickly rushed at him, believing that this brash charge would bring everything to an end.

Instead of backing away from his spot, Lancelot went forward to meet him, and without caring for what it might cost him, he seized the knight's third sword, which was hanging at his side. Now that both of them had sharp steel swords again, they began fighting once more, testing their helmets, hauberks, and bright armor, and using only the cinches of their shields as protection for their heads. Many times, their blows dug into raw flesh and opened wounds, causing a lot of blood to gush and spurt out.
