Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Avalon: And Other Poems I know it well, that green and tranquil isle, Encircled by the arms of summer tides That sway and smile, and whisper of the sea. Not far away it lies its fragrant Shades Shot through by golden lances of the sun, And stirred by gentle airs that wander Still, On noiseless feet, to find the chamber fair Where, couched on mystic herbs and asphodel, Healed of his hurts, King Arthur lies asleep. Oft have I found its shelter. When the stress Of warring winds, and Sharp tumultuous storms Have left me spent and breathless on the field, Then my swift thoughts, for healing and for rest, Bear me away to peaceful Avalon. The sweet enchantments of the bounteous queen Have changed the shifting waves to fields of rye, And seas of meadow-grass, that softly break Against the low-browed wall that shuts about The blessed trees, veiled in eternal bloom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Arthur I cannot better begin the few remarks that it seems to me fitting to prefix to this poem, than by acknowledgments sincere and earnest to those whose approbation of the earlier portions honoured my experiment and encourage its progress; - I venture to hope that the work, as now completed, will not forfeit the indulgence that they bestowed on the commencement; indeed, it is almost the necessary condition of any fiction, planned with some forethought, and sustained through some length, that the passages most calculated to please the reader, should open upon him in proportion as he habituates himself to the style, and becomes familiarized with the design, of the author - while it is obvious that such merit as the work may possibly be entitled to claim on the score of art, or consistency, can be but imperfectly conjecture by specimens of its parts. Whatever the defects of this Poem, it has not been hastily conceived or lightly undertaken. From my earliest youth, the subject I have selected has haunted my ambition - for twenty years it has rested steadily on my mind, in spite of other undertakings, for the most part not wholly ungenial, - since a lengthened and somewhat various practice in the conception and conduct of imaginative story, ought to be no disadvantageous preparation for a poem which seeks to construct from the elements of national romance, something approaching to the completeness of epic narrative.

Download or read book Avalon written by Stephen R Lawhead and published by Lion Fiction. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rousing postscript to Lawhead's bardic Pendragon Cycle . . . Playing off snappy contemporary derring-do against the powerful shining glimpses of the historical Arthur he created, Lawhead pulls off a genuinely moving parable of good and evil.'Â Publishers Weekly It has been foretold: In the hour of Britain's greatest need, King Arthur will return to rescue his people. In Portugal, the reprobate King Edward the Ninth has died by his own hand. In England, the British monarchy teeters on the edge of total destruction. And in the Scottish Highlands, a mystical emissary named Mr. Embries-better known as "Merlin"-informs a young captain that he is next in line to the throne. For James Arthur Stuart is not the commoner he has always believed himself to be-he is Arthur, the legendary King of Summer, reborn. But the road to England's salvation is dangerous, with powerful enemies waiting in ambush. For Arthur is not the only one who has returned from the mists of legend. And Merlin's magic is not the only sorcery that has survived the centuries.

Download or read book King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table Vol 1 written by Charles Morris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 764 pages. 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.
