Which – in my world – means reading something completely different.
I’ve not picked up the biography of Malory (in the picture above) for years. But, for some strange reason, I felt like dipping into it today.
Y’all know what Friday is, yes?
POETS DAY
Confession. I struggle with Le Morte d’Arthur almost as much as I struggle with Spenser’s Faerie Queene. Sigh. Very wordy.
“Yet some men say in many parts of England that King Arthur is not dead, but had by the will of our Lord Jesu into another place; and men say that he shall come again, and he shall win the holy cross.”
― Thomas Malory, Le Morte d’Arthur
And as an added bonus : I’d forgotten that the shelf, upon which this book is, faces into the room, away from sunlight, so it’s the ONLY shelf that has kept my original handwritten quote legible.
OMG —–I’m LOVING the fact that the DIVINE POET Rumi survived time and fading :o)
