And Modred whom he left in charge of all��
The traitorAh sweet lady�察�the King's grief
For his own self�察�and his own Queen�察�and realm��
Must needs be thrice as great as any of ours。
For me�察�I thank the saints�察�I am not great。
For if there ever come a grief to me
I cry my cry in silence�察�and have done。
None knows it�察�and my tears have brought me good��
But even were the griefs of little ones
As great as those of great ones�察�yet this grief
Is added to the griefs the great must bear��
That howsoever much they may desire
Silence�察�they cannot weep behind a cloud��
As even here they talk at Almesbury
About the good King and his wicked Queen��
And were I such a King with such a Queen��
Well might I wish to veil her wickedness��
But were I such a King�察�it could not be。'

   Then to her own sad heart muttered the Queen��
'Will the child kill me with her innocent talk��'
But openly she answered�察�'Must not I��
If this false traitor have displaced his lord��
Grieve with the common grief of all the realm��'

   'Yea��' said the maid�察�'this is all woman's grief��
That she is woman�察�whose disloyal life
Hath wrought confusion in the Table Round
Which good King Arthur founded�察�years ago��
With signs and miracles and wonders�察�there
At Camelot�察�ere the coming of the Queen。'

   Then thought the Queen within herself again��
'Will the child kill me with her foolish prate��'
But openly she spake and said to her��
'O little maid�察�shut in by nunnery walls��
What canst thou know of Kings and Tables Round��
Or what of signs and wonders�察�but the signs
And simple miracles of thy nunnery��'

   To whom the little novice garrulously��
'Yea�察�but I know�此 �the land was full of signs
And wonders ere the coming of the Queen。
So said my father�察�and himself was knight
Of the great Tableat the founding of it��
And rode thereto from Lyonnesse�察�and he said
That as he rode�察�an hour or maybe twain
After the sunset�察�down the coast�察�he heard
Strange music�察�and he paused�察�and turningthere��
All down the lonely coast of Lyonnesse��
Each with a beacon´star upon his head��
And with a wild sea´light about his feet��
He saw themheadland after headland flame
Far on into the rich heart of the west��
And in the light the white mermaiden swam��
And strong man´breasted things stood from the sea��
And sent a deep sea´voice through all the land��
To which the little elves of chasm and cleft
Made answer�察�sounding like a distant horn。
So said my fatheryea�察�and furthermore��
Next morning�察�while he past the dim´lit woods��
Himself beheld three spirits mad with joy
Come dashing down on a tall wayside flower��
That shook beneath them�察�as the thistle shakes
When three gray linnets wrangle for the seed��
And still at evenings on before his horse
The flickering fairy´circle wheeled and broke
Flying�察�and linked again�察�and wheeled and broke
Flying�察�for all the land was full of life。
And when at last he came to Camelot��
A wreath of airy dancers hand´in´hand
Swung round the lighted lantern of the hall��
And in the hall itself was such a feast
As never man had dreamed�察�for every knight
Had whatsoever meat he longed for served
By hands unseen�察�and even as he said
Down in the cellars merry bloated things
Shouldered the spigot�察�straddling on the butts
While the wine ran�此 �so glad were spirits and men
Before the coming of the sinful Queen。'

   Then spake the Queen and somewhat bitterly��
'Were they so glad�拭�ill prophets were they all��
Spirits and men�此 �could none of them foresee��
Not even thy wise father with his signs
And wonders�察�what has fallen upon the realm��'

   To whom the novice garrulously again��
'Yea�察�one�察�a bard�察�of whom my father said��
Full many a noble war´song had he sung��
Even in the presence of an enemy's fleet��
Between the steep cliff and the coming wave��
And many a mystic lay of life and death
Had chanted on the smoky mountain´tops��
When round him bent the spirits of the hills
With all their dewy hair blown back like flame��
So said my fatherand that night the bard
Sang Arthur's glorious wars�察�and sang the King
As wellnigh more than man�察�and railed at those
Who called him the false son of Gorlois��
For there was no man knew from whence he came��
But after tempest�察�when the long wave broke
All down the thundering shores of Bude and Bos��
There came a day as still as heaven�察�and then
They found a naked child upon the sands
Of dark Tintagil by the Cornish sea��
And that was Arthur�察�and they fostered him
Till he by miracle was approven King��
And that his grave should be a mystery
From all men�察�like his birth�察�and could he find
A woman in her womanhood as great
As he was in his manhood�察�then�察�he sang��
The twain together well might change the world。
But even in the middle of his song
He faltered�察�and his hand fell from the harp��
And pale he turned�察�and reeled�察�and would have fallen��
But that they stayed him up�察�nor would he tell
His vision�察�but what doubt that he foresaw
This evil work of Lancelot and the Queen��'

   Then thought the Queen�察�'Lo� �they have set her on��
Our simple´seeming Abbess and her nuns��
To play upon me��' and bowed her head nor spake。
Whereat the novice crying�察�with clasped hands��
Shame on her own garrulity garrulously��
Said the good nuns would check her gadding tongue
Full often�察�'and�察�sweet lady�察�if I seem
To vex an ear too sad to listen to me��
Unmannerly�察�with prattling and the tales
Which my good father told me�察�check me too
Nor let me shame my father's memory�察�one
Of noblest manners�察�though himself would say
Sir Lancelot had the noblest�察�and he died��
Killed in a tilt�察�come next�察�five summers back��
And left me�察�but of others who remain��
And of the two first´famed for courtesy
And pray you check me if I ask amiss´
But pray you�察�which had noblest�察�while you moved
Among them�察�Lancelot or our lord the King��'

   Then the pale Queen looked up and answered her��
'Sir Lancelot�察�as became a noble knight��
Was gracious to all ladies�察�and the same
In open battle or the tilting´field
Forbore his own advantage�察�and the King
In open battle or the tilting´field
Forbore his own advantage�察�and these two
Were the most nobly´mannered men of all��
For manners are not idle�察�but the fruit
Of loyal nature�察�and of noble mind。'

   'Yea��' said the maid�察�'be manners such fair fruit��'
Then Lancelot's needs must be a thousand´fold
Less noble�察�being�察�as all rumour runs��
The most disloyal friend in all the world。'

   To which a mournful answer made the Queen��
'O closed about by narrowing nunnery´walls��
What knowest thou of the world�察�and all its lights
And shadows�察�all the wealth and all the woe��
If ever Lancelot�察�that most noble knight��
Were for one hour less noble than himself��
Pray for him that he scape the doom of fire��
And weep for her that drew him to his doom。'

   'Yea��' said the little novice�察�'I pray for both��
But I should all as soon believe that his��
Sir Lancelot's�察�were as noble as the King's��
As I could think�察�sweet lady�察�yours would be
Such as they are�察�were you the sinful Queen。'

   So she�察�like many another babbler�察�hurt
Whom she would soothe�察�and harmed where she would heal��
For here a sudden flush of wrathful heat
Fired all the pale face of the Queen�察�who cried��
'Such as thou art be never maiden more
For ever� �thou their tool�察�set on to plague
And play upon�察�and harry me�察�petty spy
And traitress。'  When that storm of anger brake
From Guinevere�察�aghast the maiden rose��
White as her veil�察�and stood before the Queen
As tremulously as foam upon the beach
Stands in a wind�察�ready to break and fly��
And when the Queen had added 'Get thee hence��'
Fled frighted。  Then that other left alone
Sighed�察�and began to gather heart again��
Saying in herself�察�'The simple�察�fearful child
Meant nothing�察�but my own too´fearful guilt��
Simpler than any child�察�betrays itself。
But help me�察�heaven�察�for surely I repent。
For what is true repentance but in thought
Not even in inmost thought to think again
The sins that made the past so pleasant to us��
And I have sworn never to see him more��
To see him more。'

                 And even in saying this��
Her memory from old habit of the mind
Went slipping back upon the golden days
In which she saw him first�察�when Lancelot came��
Reputed the best knight and goodliest man��
Ambassador�察�to lead her to his lord
Arthur�察�and led her forth�察�and far ahead
Of his and her retinue moving�察�they��
Rapt in sweet talk or lively�察�all on love
And sport and tilts and pleasure�察。�for the time
Was maytime�察�and as yet no sin was dreamed�撮�
Rode under groves that looked a paradise
Of blossom�察�over sheets of hyacinth
That seemed the heavens upbreaking through the earth��
And on from hill to hill�察�and every day
Beheld at noon in some delicious dale
The silk pavilions of King Arthur raised
For brief repast or afternoon repose
By couriers gone before�察�and on again��
Till yet once more ere set of sun they saw
The Dragon of the great Pendragonship��
That crowned the state pavilion of the King��
Blaze by the rushing brook or silent well。

   But when the Queen immersed in such a trance��
And moving through the past unconsciously��
Came to that point where first she saw the King
Ride toward her from the city�察�sighed to find
Her journey done�察�glanced at him�察�thought him cold��
High�察�self´contained�察�and passionless�察�not like him��
'Not like my Lancelot'while she brooded thus
And grew half´guilty in her thoughts again��
There rode an armed warrior to the doors。
A murmuring whisper through the nunnery ran��
Then on a sudden a cry�察�'The King。'  She sat
Stiff´stricken�察�listening�察�but when armed feet
Through the long gallery from the outer doors
Rang coming�察�prone from off her seat she fell��
And grovelled with her face against the floor��
There with her milkwhite arms and shadowy hair
She made her face a darkness from the King��
And in the darkness heard his armed feet
Pause by her�察�then came silence�察�then a voice��
Monotonous and hollow like a Ghost's
Denouncing judgment�察�but though changed�察�the King's��

   'Liest thou here so low�察�the child of one
I honoured�察�happy�察�dead before thy shame��
Well is it that no child is born of thee。
The children born of thee are sword and fire��
Red ruin�察�and the breaking up of laws��
The craft of kind
