Truly, I told him that he bare the same shield that Sir Mordred beareth.

Will ye do well?
said Sir Mordred; I am hurt and may not well bear my shield nor harness, and therefore put my shield and my harness upon Sir Dagonet, and let him set upon the Cornish knight.

That shall be done, said Sir Dagonet, by my faith.

Then anon was Dagonet armed him in Mordred's harness and his shield, and he was set on a great horse, and a spear in his hand.

Now, said Dagonet, shew me the knight, and I trow I shall bear him down.
