11. PAGE 127.--_Lancelot's adventure with the beast._ This is a condensed account of the well known story of _The Fahe Claimant_. Two versions of this story have already been given in this series, the dragon adventure in _Tristan_ (No. II) and that of the stag in _Tyolet_ (No. III.); this is inferior to either, but appears to combine characteristics of both. I have discussed it fully in Chapter III. of the _Lancelot_ studies, before referred to, and have there compared it with the similar adventure also attributed to that knight in the Dutch compilation.
12. PAGE 128.--_Had it not been for a ring which Lancelot wore._ This is evidently the ring given him by the Lady of the Lake, and referred to in _The Charrette_ (ll. 2348 et seq). It had the power of detecting enchantments.
13. PAGE 142.--_King Arthur--held captive the king, who had erst made him a prisoner._ There seems to be a confusion here; from Gariet's account it was the King of the Saxons who captured Arthur; here he has disappeared and everything is attributed to the King of Ireland.
Probably they were allies; but it is also possible that confusion may have arisen from the fact that the King of Dublin was at one time, as in the Tristan legend, a Viking, and the poet has not distinguished clearly between the nationalities of these sea-robbers. If so, it would seem to indicate an early date for this particular story.
