So all these knights rode to a woodside, and abode till King Mark came by the way.

Then they put forth Sir Dagonet, and he came on all the while his horse might run, straight upon King Mark.

And when he came nigh King Mark, he cried as he were wood, and said: Keep thee, knight of Cornwall, for I will slay thee.

Anon, as King Mark beheld his shield, he said to himself: Yonder is Sir Launcelot; alas, now am I destroyed; and therewithal he made his horse to run as fast as it might through thick and thin.

And ever Sir Dagonet followed after King Mark, crying and rating him as a wood man, through a great forest.
