Less lustrous, life.html">life's loud thanksgiving
Laughed, as from all that clamorous fight
Who fain had found his kingliest knight.html">knight
But Merlin gave his soul to see.html">see
And all the sorrow that should be
My battle," Arthur said, "before
Balen and Balan, Pellinore,
"Balen shall be not long away
Shall bring his brother back to say

The doom that songs unborn should sing,
Of blithe and bitter days to spring
And on the king for fear.html">fear's sake fell

And help of man may speed me not,"

A knight that made most heavy cheer,
Or pity give my heart to hear
Fain were I thou shouldst overtake
No word of answering grace to make
By force or by goodwill, shalt bring
Quoth Balen, "and a greater thing
Were heavier than your sovereign word
