It is no wonder that we read of Guenevere taking Launfal aside for a little private conversation in her pleasaunce.
She is loved as dearly as was Guenevere, but she gives him neither scarf nor glove.
In one window I beheld four and twenty damsels, and the least fair of them was fairer than Guenevere at her fairest.
So when they drew near the King's palace, word was brought to Guenevere of their approach.
She was presented to Arthur and Guenevere, and was no longer a "lothely" lady.
