Entertainment / Literature / Rash Boon: A motif in folklore and in Celtic and Arthurian literature in which an individual too hastily promises to fulfill another character's request without hearing exactly what that request is. For instance, in the first tale in The Mabinogion, 'Pwyll, Prince of Dyfed,' Pwyll promises to give Gwawl son of Clud whatever he requests. Gwawl demands that Pwyll give him his wife, Rhiannon, much to Pwyll's dismay! In the French Erec et Enide, we see the knight Erec involved in such a motif. In The Wife of Bath's Tale, the rapist knight makes a rash boon to the aged hag--and the hag later claims that boon before Gwenevere's court, demanding that the knight marry her.
