BOHORT. Arthurian.
A knight of the Round Table. Brother of
King Ban, and uncle to Lancelot du Lac. Also see Bors.
(An Explanatory and Pronouncing Dictionary of the Noted Names of
Fiction, Wheeler, 1898)
... Sir Bohort prepared to
rescue his brother. But he looked on the other side of him, and
saw a knight dragging along a fair gentlewoman, who cried out,
"Saint Mary! succor your maid!" And when she saw Sir
Bohort she called to him and said, "By the faith that ye owe to
knighthood, help me!" When Sir Bohort heard her say thus, he
had such sorrow that he wist what to do. "For if I let my
brother be, he must be slain, and that would I not for all the earth;
and if I help not the maid, I am shamed for ever."... (Age of
Chivalry, Bulfinch, 1900)
