Document Summary
Prince arthur meets with una great- ly with those newes distrest. This canto is divided into two parts: the orgoglio episode, and una is going to come across arthur, who is going to help the rck. Just when you think that nobody can help them, arthur comes to the rescue. She fownd not in that perilous house of pryde, Where she had left, the noble redcrosse knight, Her hoped pray, she would no lenger bide, But forth she went, to seeke him far and wide. Ere long she fownd, whereas (where) he wearie sate, To rest him selfe, foreby (beside) a fountaine side, And by his side his steed the grassy forage ate. Character at rest, no amour on, just letting his horse eat: this is all not good news. Note that the horse is relaxing too; it gets what it wants, since horses usually represent (a figure of ) passion in these works.
