       My summary begins after the death of a man, and Galahad told knights to go to the tomb and lift it up.

      

       So he did, and heard a great noise; and he said, "that all men might hear it" Sir Galahad, the servant of Jesus Christ, make me go again there where I have been so long. But Galahad was nothing afraid, but lifted up the stone; and there came out so foul a smoke, and after he saw the foulest figure leap. He then blessed him and wist well it was a fiend.

      

      Sir Galahad rested him there that night; and upon the morn he made the squire knight, and asked him his name, and of what kindred he was come. come of kings and queens, now look that knighthood be well set in you. Then that he will suffer me to ride with you in this quest of the Sangreal, till that some adventure depart us. I grant you, sir said Galahad.
