Bedivere

How like a frenzy is his hatred!

Lucan

He is narrowed to one point, vengeance. Look, what’s yonder?

Bedivere

A damsel riding hither from Joyous Gard.

Lucan

Upon a milk-white ass! Look, a gleam follows her from the stormy heaven. A happy omen!

Bedivere

She is in white; like a white dove; like peace. Go, Lucan, go to meet her. (Lucan advances. A distant trumpet sounds from Launcelot’s side.) A trumpet sounds from Joyous Gard. Is it peace at last?
