How King Mark, Sir Lamorak, and Sir Dinadan came to a.
castle, and how King Mark was known there.
THEN they rode forth all together, King Mark, Sir Lamorak, and Sir Dinadan, till that they came to a bridge, and at the end thereof stood a fair tower.

Then saw they a knight on horseback well armed, brandishing a spear, crying and proffering himself to joust.

Now, said Sir Dinadan unto King Mark, yonder are two brethren, that one hight Alein, and the other hight Trian, that will joust with any that passeth this passage.
Now proffer yourself, said Dinadan to King Mark, for ever ye be laid to the earth.

Then King Mark was ashamed, and therewith he feutred his spear, and hurtled to Sir Trian, and either brake their spears all to pieces, and passed through anon.
