Description
Excerpt from A History of English Literature
Then from the dawn it seemed there came, but faint As from beyond the limit of the world, Like the last echo born of a great cry, Sounds, as if some fair city were one voice Around a king returning from his wars.
Here we have in the ancient story of Arthur the earliest strand in our literature - the Celtic element; though the legend of the Mysterious Passing was interwoven with it at a later date by the French Romancers.
