Touch flax with flamea glance will servethe liars��
Ah little rat that borest in the dyke
Thy hole by night to let the boundless deep
Down upon far´off cities while they dance
Or dreamof thee they dreamed notnor of me
Theseay�察�but each of either�此 �ride�察�and dream
The mortal dream that never yet was mine
Ride�察�ride and dream until ye waketo me��
Then�察�narrow court and lubber King�察�farewell��
For Lancelot will be gracious to the rat��
And our wise Queen�察�if knowing that I know��
Will hate�察�loathe�察�fearbut honour me the more。'

   Yet while they rode together down the plain��
Their talk was all of training�察�terms of art��
Diet and seeling�察�jesses�察�leash and lure。
'She is too noble' he said 'to check at pies��
Nor will she rake�此 �there is no baseness in her。'
Here when the Queen demanded as by chance
'Know ye the stranger woman��'  'Let her be��'
Said Lancelot and unhooded casting off
The goodly falcon free�察�she towered�察�her bells��
Tone under tone�察�shrilled�察�and they lifted up
Their eager faces�察�wondering at the strength��
Boldness and royal knighthood of the bird
Who pounced her quarry and slew it。  Many a time
As onceof oldamong the flowersthey rode。

   But Vivien half´forgotten of the Queen
Among her damsels broidering sat�察�heard�察�watched
And whispered�此 �through the peaceful court she crept
And whispered�此 �then as Arthur in the highest
Leavened the world�察�so Vivien in the lowest��
Arriving at a time of golden rest��
And sowing one ill hint from ear to ear��
While all the heathen lay at Arthur's feet��
And no quest came�察�but all was joust and play��
Leavened his hall。  They heard and let her be。

   Thereafter as an enemy that has left
Death in the living waters�察�and withdrawn��
The wily Vivien stole from Arthur's court。

   She hated all the knights�察�and heard in thought
Their lavish comment when her name was named。
For once�察�when Arthur walking all alone��
Vext at a rumour issued from herself
Of some corruption crept among his knights��
Had met her�察�Vivien�察�being greeted fair��
Would fain have wrought upon his cloudy mood
With reverent eyes mock´loyal�察�shaken voice��
And fluttered adoration�察�and at last
With dark sweet hints of some who prized him more
Than who should prize him most�察�at which the King
Had gazed upon her blankly and gone by��
But one had watched�察�and had not held his peace��
It made the laughter of an afternoon
That Vivien should attempt the blameless King。
And after that�察�she set herself to gain
Him�察�the most famous man of all those times��
Merlin�察�who knew the range of all their arts��
Had built the King his havens�察�ships�察�and halls��
Was also Bard�察�and knew the starry heavens��
The people called him Wizard�察�whom at first
She played about with slight and sprightly talk��
And vivid smiles�察�and faintly´venomed points
Of slander�察�glancing here and grazing there��
And yielding to his kindlier moods�察�the Seer
Would watch her at her petulance�察�and play��
Even when they seemed unloveable�察�and laugh
As those that watch a kitten�察�thus he grew
Tolerant of what he half disdained�察�and she��
Perceiving that she was but half disdained��
Began to break her sports with graver fits��
Turn red or pale�察�would often when they met
Sigh fully�察�or all´silent gaze upon him
With such a fixt devotion�察�that the old man��
Though doubtful�察�felt the flattery�察�and at times
Would flatter his own wish in age for love��
And half believe her true�此 �for thus at times
He wavered�察�but that other clung to him��
Fixt in her will�察�and so the seasons went。

   Then fell on Merlin a great melancholy��
He walked with dreams and darkness�察�and he found
A doom that ever poised itself to fall��
An ever´moaning battle in the mist��
World´war of dying flesh against the life��
Death in all life and lying in all love��
The meanest having power upon the highest��
And the high purpose broken by the worm。

   So leaving Arthur's court he gained the beach��
There found a little boat�察�and stept into it��
And Vivien followed�察�but he marked her not。
She took the helm and he the sail�察�the boat
Drave with a sudden wind across the deeps��
And touching Breton sands�察�they disembarked。
And then she followed Merlin all the way��
Even to the wild woods of Broceliande。
For Merlin once had told her of a charm��
The which if any wrought on anyone
With woven paces and with waving arms��
The man so wrought on ever seemed to lie
Closed in the four walls of a hollow tower��
From which was no escape for evermore��
And none could find that man for evermore��
Nor could he see but him who wrought the charm
Coming and going�察�and he lay as dead
And lost to life and use and name and fame。
And Vivien ever sought to work the charm
Upon the great Enchanter of the Time��
As fancying that her glory would be great
According to his greatness whom she quenched。

   There lay she all her length and kissed his feet��
As if in deepest reverence and in love。
A twist of gold was round her hair�察�a robe
Of samite without price�察�that more exprest
Than hid her�察�clung about her lissome limbs��
In colour like the satin´shining palm
On sallows in the windy gleams of March��
And while she kissed them�察�crying�察�'Trample me��
Dear feet�察�that I have followed through the world��
And I will pay you worship�察�tread me down
And I will kiss you for it��' he was mute��
So dark a forethought rolled about his brain��
As on a dull day in an Ocean cave
The blind wave feeling round his long sea´hall
In silence�此 �wherefore�察�when she lifted up
A face of sad appeal�察�and spake and said��
'O Merlin�察�do ye love me��' and again��
'O Merlin�察�do ye love me��' and once more��
'Great Master�察�do ye love me��' he was mute。
And lissome Vivien�察�holding by his heel��
Writhed toward him�察�slided up his knee and sat��
Behind his ankle twined her hollow feet
Together�察�curved an arm about his neck��
Clung like a snake�察�and letting her left hand
Droop from his mighty shoulder�察�as a leaf��
Made with her right a comb of pearl to part
The lists of such a board as youth gone out
Had left in ashes�此 �then he spoke and said��
Not looking at her�察�'Who are wise in love
Love most�察�say least��' and Vivien answered quick��
'I saw the little elf´god eyeless once
In Arthur's arras hall at Camelot��
But neither eyes nor tongueO stupid child��
Yet you are wise who say it�察�let me think
Silence is wisdom�此 �I am silent then��
And ask no kiss��' then adding all at once��
'And lo�察�I clothe myself with wisdom��' drew
The vast and shaggy mantle of his beard
Across her neck and bosom to her knee��
And called herself a gilded summer fly
Caught in a great old tyrant spider's web��
Who meant to eat her up in that wild wood
Without one word。  So Vivien called herself��
But rather seemed a lovely baleful star
Veiled in gray vapour�察�till he sadly smiled��
'To what request for what strange boon��' he said��
'Are these your pretty tricks and fooleries��
O Vivien�察�the preamble�拭�yet my thanks��
For these have broken up my melancholy。'

   And Vivien answered smiling saucily��
'What�察�O my Master�察�have ye found your voice��
I bid the stranger welcome。  Thanks at last��
But yesterday you never opened lip��
Except indeed to drink�此 �no cup had we��
In mine own lady palms I culled the spring
That gathered trickling dropwise from the cleft��
And made a pretty cup of both my hands
And offered you it kneeling�此 �then you drank
And knew no more�察�nor gave me one poor word��
O no more thanks than might a goat have given
With no more sign of reverence than a beard。
And when we halted at that other well��
And I was faint to swooning�察�and you lay
Foot´gilt with all the blossom´dust of those
Deep meadows we had traversed�察�did you know
That Vivien bathed your feet before her own��
And yet no thanks�此 �and all through this wild wood
And all this morning when I fondled you��
Boon�察�ay�察�there was a boon�察�one not so strange
How had I wronged you�拭�surely ye are wise��
But such a silence is more wise than kind。'

   And Merlin locked his hand in hers and said��
'O did ye never lie upon the shore��
And watch the curled white of the coming wave
Glassed in the slippery sand before it breaks��
Even such a wave�察�but not so pleasurable��
Dark in the glass of some presageful mood��
Had I for three days seen�察�ready to fall。
And then I rose and fled from Arthur's court
To break the mood。  You followed me unasked��
And when I looked�察�and saw you following me still��
My mind involved yourself the nearest thing
In that mind´mist�此 �for shall I tell you truth��
You seemed that wave about to break upon me
And sweep me from my hold upon the world��
My use and name and fame。  Your pardon�察�child。
Your pretty sports have brightened all again。
And ask your boon�察�for boon I owe you thrice��
Once for wrong done you by confusion�察�next
For thanks it seems till now neglected�察�last
For these your dainty gambols�此 �wherefore ask��
And take this boon so strange and not so strange。'

   And Vivien answered smiling mournfully��
'O not so strange as my long asking it��
Not yet so strange as you yourself are strange��
Nor half so strange as that dark mood of yours。
I ever feared ye were not wholly mine��
And see�察�yourself have owned ye did me wrong。
The people call you prophet�此 �let it be��
But not of those that can expound themselves。
Take Vivien for expounder�察�she will call
That three´days´long presageful gloom of yours
No presage�察�but the same mistrustful mood
That makes you seem less noble than yourself��
Whenever I have asked this very boon��
Now asked again�此 �for see you not�察�dear love��
That such a mood as that�察�which lately gloomed
Your fancy when ye saw me following you��
Must make me fear still more you are not mine��
Must make me yearn still more to prove you mine��
And make me wish still more to learn this charm
Of woven paces and of waving hands��
As proof of trust。  O Merlin�察�teach it me。
The charm so taught will charm us both to rest。
For�察�grant me some slight power upon your fate��
I�察�feeling that you felt me worthy trust��
Should rest and let you rest�察�knowing you mine。
And therefore be as great as ye are named��
Not muffled round with selfish reticence。
How hard you look and how denyingly��
O�察�if you think this wickedness in me��
That I should prove it on you unawares��
That makes me passing wrathful�察�then our bond
