Ganelon went enraged, fearing that he would die at the hands of Pagans.

- The fight turned against the Franks. Almost all of Roland's men are dead. He blows his oliphant even though he knows that it was too late to save him and his men, but Roland wants the emperor to see what happened and avenge them.
