The Yankee asks Sandy to tell her about the knights they had just captured, and immediately regrets the decision, since it starts her talking nonstop again.
Sandy speaks of the exploits of Sir Gawain and Uwaine. The Yankee periodically interrupts to point out their wastefulness and the general absurdity of their exploits.

The sun eventually sets, with Sandy only just getting around to telling the Yankee about the knights they captured.
The pair stop for the night at a castle. Sandy says she doesn't know who runs it.
