Gareth, in
Sir T. Malory's Morte d'Arthur (1470), the youngest son of Lot, king of
Orkney, and Morgawse, Arthur's half sister. His mother, to deter
him from entering Arthur's Court, laughingly suggests that he should
conceal his name and serve for twelve months as a kitchen
scullion. He accepts the challenge. Sir Kay, the king's
steward, nicknamed him Beaumains, in ridicule of his large hands.
When Linet besought Arthur to send one of his knights to liberate her
sister Liones from Castle Perilous, Gareth volunteers and despite the
lady's contumely succeeds in freeing Liones. (Heroes and Heroines of
Fiction, &c., Walsh, 1915)
