Although the second half of this unit was not as entertaining as the first half there were still some chapters that I really enjoyed. One chapter was the story of The Enchanted Chamber. This story lived up to its title; it was pretty enchanting. The chapter began with Britomart hearing the sound of a trumpet. In the darkness appeared a figure; it was Ease. After Ease, also came Fancy, Desire, Doubt, Danger, Fear, Hope, and Suspicion and so much more. Each one of these figure lived up to his/her name. For instance, Fancy was dressed in all silk and was vain. Hope was dressed in light silk and she had beautiful fair hair. She was always smiling and show a great liking of everyone. She gave out favours to pretty much everyone.
Another chapter that I enjoyed was the story of How the "Savage Knight" met the "Knight with the Ebony Spear." It is also just called the Two Knights. In story Sir Scudamour runs into a knight that calls himself the Savage Knight. They began to converse and they soon learn that they share something in common; they both despise Britomart. They form an alliance and decide to go after Britomart.The two knights fight against Britomart. It looked as though Artegall was going to win the fight but as soon as he rose his weapon to strike Britomart, Britomart revealed her face to him. Taken by her Artegall surrendered. Britomart eventually remembers who Artegall is. He is the face she saw int he mirror long ago; he is her true love.
In How Britomart Ended her Quest, Britomart and Artegall fall in love and are finally together.
