Then Ulfius and Brastias told the kings of the adventure at their passages of the eight knights.

Ha! ah! said Ban and Bors, they were my good friends.

I would I had wist of them; they should not have escaped so.

So Ulfius and Brastias had good cheer and great gifts, as much as they might bear away; and had their answer by mouth and by writing, that those two kings would come unto Arthur in all the haste that they might.

So the two knights rode on afore, and passed the sea, and came to their lord, and told him how they had sped, whereof King Arthur was passing glad.
