Sir Launcelot got the news about the Queen Guenevere and took off as fast he could. Sir Launcelot took the water to Westminster Bridge; his horse had to swim across the Thames into the Lambeth. Sir Launcelot traveled for awhile until he came upon the spot where the Queen’s knights and Sir Meliagrance battled over Guenevere. He came upon some of Sir Meliagrance’s men. They told him, he had to get rid of his horse if he wanted to continue on.

            Sir Launcelot argued with them until they got fed up with him, and stabbed his horse. After the knights impaled Sir Launcelot’s horse, he went on foot and spotted a chariot with two carters in it. Sir Launcelot asked the carters if they would give him a ride to Sir Meliagrance's castle. It was only a couple of miles away. The carter said there was no way he would help him. Sir Lancelot got mad and jumped on the carter and killed him, then dropped his body on the ground. The other carter was afraid that Sir Launcelot was going to kill him. The carter pleaded with him and asked to spare his life, if he did the carter would help him get to the castle.

         Queen Guenevere was waiting in a bay window with her ladies in waiting. One of the ladies spied a knight in a chariot with a horse following after it. She told the queen to look, and she did, Guenevere found that it was Sir Launcelot. His horse was walking with its guts hanging out of its stomach.

         Sir Launcelot came to the gates of the castle and called out to Sir Meliagrance.  He yelled, "Come out, you traitor knight," and fight me.
