Lancelot is riding through a forest and meets a wood nymph, who leads him to a cave and spends some time in a love-nest with him. Then he goes to war, and switches his attention to Queen Guinevere. The wood nymph pines away, and the members of Arthur's court see a boat drifting down the river with her corpse on a bier on the deck.
Tells a story similar to the well-known tale of Elaine of Astolat (the Lady of Shalott).
