He can cast any spell he has prepared at any time, assuming he has not yet used up his spells per day for that spell level. For example, a 3rd level paladin can prepare four 1st level and two 2nd level spells. He can cast 1st level spells four times and 2nd level spells two times in the course of the day. He might end up using the same 1st level spell four times, or one 1st level spell two times and another 1st level spell two times, or any combination that adds up to four uses of any of his 1st level spells. If a paladin knows any metamagic feats, he applies them to his spells when he prepares his spells for the day. | He can cast any spell he has prepared at any time, assuming he has not yet used up his spells per day for that spell level.
