Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, Vol. 1 of 3: A Modernized Version of the "Morte Darthur" This is history as Geofi'rey Of Monmouth under stood it, but hardly so in the modern sense, and Arthur remains as mystical a figure as Achilles, despite the efforts of various writers to bring him within the circle Of actual kings. After the Romans left Britain, two centuries passed Of whose history hardly a coherent shred remains. This was the age of Arthur, one of the last champions Of Celtic Britain against the inflowing tide of anglo-saxon invasion. That there was an actual Arthur there is some, but no very posi tive, reason to believe. After all the evidence has been offered, we still seem to have but a shadowy here before us, a king of shreds and patches, whose history is so pieced out with conjecture that it is next to impossible to separate its facts from its fancies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, Vol. 1: A Modernized Version of the "Morte Darthur" The ballads and romances in which the King Arthur of mediaeval story figures as the hero, would scarcely prove pleasant and profitable reading to us now, however greatly they delighted our ances tors. They are marked by a coarseness and crudity which would be but little to our taste. Nor have we anything of modern growth to replace them. Milton entertained a purpose of making King Arthur the hero of an epic poem, but fortunately yielded it for the nobler task of Paradise Lost. Spenser gives this hero a minor place in his Pairie Queen. Dryden projected a King Arthur epic, but failed to write, it. Recently Bulwer has given us a cumbersome King Arthur, which nobody reads; and Tennyson has handled the subject bril liantly in his Idyls of the King, splendid suc cesses as poems vet too infiltrated with the spirit of modernism to be acceptable as a reproduction of the Arthur of romance. For a true rehabilita tion of this hero of the age of chivalry we must go to the Morte Darthur of Sir Thomas Malory, a writer of the fifteenth century, who lived when men still wore armor, and so near to the actual age of chivalry as to be in full sympathy with the spirit of its fiction, and its pervading love of adven ture and belief in the magical.

CHAPTER I. HOW TROUBLE CAME TO LIONEL AND HECTOR. After the strange deeds and adventures that have just been described, a season of war came again to King Arthur and his realm, through which he won great honor and renown. For Lucius, the Emperor of Eome, sent ambassadors to Arthur, demanding tribute; and when he proudly refused this demand Lucius gathered a great army and invaded the tributary domains of Arthur, in Gaul. Long and fierce was the war that followed, for Arthur crossed to Gaul with all the power of his realm; fought and killed, single-handed, a huge giant who dwelt on St. Michael's Mount; defeated the army of Eome, and killed the emperor in single combat; and in the end was crowned emperor, in the imperial city of Eome. All this story the chronicles give at length, and tell us also that in this war the noble Lancelot du Lake, son of King Ban of Gaul, gained his first measure of renown. 147 After the war had ended and the victorious host returned to England, many adventures came to Lancelot, some of which we must here tell. Great indeed was the valor and might of this worthiest of knights, who in after years proved himself in knightly prowess and chivalrio honor the noblest of men. In tournaments and deeds of arms, in sportive war or battle for life or death, he passed all other knights, and was never overcome but by treason or enchantment. After Arthur's return from Eome sports and feasts were given, and jousts and tournaments held, in which the Knights of the Bound Table took part, many who had gained no great fame in the war now proving themselves able and worthy warriors. But above them all Lancelot displayed such skill and prowess that he increased in honor and worship beyond any knight of...
