"How Sir Gallahad proffered Sir Fauntleroy a joust, and how he did freely
submit to Sir Fauntleroy's will"
Therewithal came Sir Gallahad horsed, and approacheth he slow to the trot,
and each man beholdeth other long time. Then at long last spake Sir
Fauntleroy and said, why cast thou thy wretched gaze in mine direction?
Sir Fauntleroy I know thee well, spake the knight, for long and far hast
traveled thine reputation in the field. Masculine knight, my name is Sir
Gallahad, who cometh by way of a merry land wherest I am wont to cavort
gaily with gentlemen after mine own kind.
And what kind be that, other than that of treachery? asketh Sir Fauntleroy,
concealing not his passing wroth born ever without sound reason, save that
he was greatly loathe to converse or to have fellowship with any man or
woman of this earth at any time, and enraged twice-over that this man boast
to dwell in a merry land.
Those kind that might seek a joust from a knight of thine quality and
repute, that is, if ye feel fresh in the spirit of brotherly contest.
Never do I yearn for anything brotherly, said Sir Fauntleroy, rather it is
my custom to serve a loathsome and merry knight such as thee to the earth
and do my darkest will upon him. Meseemeth ye wist not mine reputation, for
if so ye didst ye wouldst yield to me upon sight. Now dress thee for battle,
Sir.
And with that Sir Gallahad made ready and took up his spear, and each rode
eagerly toward other. But whenst their spears should meet, Sir Gallahad gave
an awk glance and feigned swoon to the ground and avoided his horse. Then
Sir Fauntleroy alighted of his horse and believed Sir Gallahad at a great
disadvantage. Yield unto me now Sir, said Fauntleroy, else before thou art
slain I shall maketh a battle bride of thee.
I yield not unto thee, sayeth Sir Gallahad, nay even though thou hast
wounded me sore, I should rather ye to have thine way and slay me than to be
disgraced by yielding unto you after but a single stroke.
I expect, said Sir Fauntleroy, you are certain soon to regret that choice.
And with that Sir Fauntleroy lashed with rope Sir Gallahad to a shepherd's
fence by the hands and feet, then loosed his belt and pleats and defiled him
in most lewd a manner. At that the victim groaned feverishly, but never a
woeful complaint did pass his lips as Sir Fauntleroy performed on him that
odious deed. And when at last the enormous knight delivered his vile seed
and withdrew, Sir Gallahad quickly and deftly shed his ligatures and was
immediately on his horse a-riding. Then striketh he Sir Fauntleroy's steed
so as to send it reeling away in the wood long out of reach.
Confounded am I, calleth Sir Fauntleroy to the departing knight, that
beseemeth me thou couldst have escaped mine stern rebuke at any time. Why
then didst thou suffer it?
Now halting briefly on his horse, Sir Gallahad blushed and turned to speak.
As to that, said he, I will say only that if ye enjoyed this encounter as
much as I, then perhaps ye should avail thyself of the land from whence I
dwell, wherest ye may cavort with gentlemen of the same nature, and may we
all serve of each other likewise as thou hath just served unto me most
graciously.
And with that Sir Gallahad rode off gleefully by his way, leaving Sir
Fauntleroy to ponder this mysterious exchange.
