ღღღ ♥♥♥ Sir Lancelot & Queen Guinevere ♥♥♥ ღღღ Lord Alfred Tennyson immortalized the doomed lovers in a poem: Sir Lancelot and Queen Guinevere Like souls that balance joy and pain, With tears and smiles from heaven again The maiden Spring upon the plain Came in a sunlit fall of rain. In crystal vapor everywhere Blue isles of heaven laugh'd between, And far, in forest-deeps unseen, The topmost elm-tree gather'd green From draughts of balmy air. Sometimes the linnet piped his song; Sometimes the throstle whistled strong; Sometimes the sparhawk, wheel'd along, Hush'd all the groves from fear of wrong; By grassy capes with fuller sound In curves the yellowing river ran, And drooping chestnut-buds began To spread into the perfect fan, Above the teeming ground. Then, in the boyhood of the year, Sir Launcelot and Queen Guinevere Rode thro' the coverts of the deer, With blissful treble ringing clear. She seem'd a part of joyous Spring; A gown of grass-green silk she wore, Buckled with golden clasps before; A light-green tuft of plumes she bore Closed in a golden ring. Now on some twisted ivy-net, Now by some tinkling rivulet, In mosses mixt with violet Her cream-white mule his pastern set; And fleeter now she skimm'd the plains Than she whose elfin prancer springs By night to eery warblings, When all the glimmering moorland rings With jingling bridle-reins. As she fled fast thro' sun and shade, The happy winds upon her play'd, Blowing the ringlet from the braid. She look'd so lovely, as she sway'd The rein with dainty finger-tips, A man had given all other bliss, And all his worldly worth for this, To waste his whole heart in one kiss Upon her perfect lips. ♥♥♥ ♥♥♥ ღღღღღღ ♥♥♥ ♥♥♥ Adjusted size and color/hue/saturation, detail/clarity, brightness/contrast using PhotoFiltre 7 software/freeware.
