The Sword of Arthur
Looming darkly over granite rocks up on high the arch is seen, the entrance to to Tintagel Castle Arthur’s home of this Cornish King.
A mystic man of Camelot times, who’s father Uther Pendragon , seduced another mans Queen and Arthur became Cornwall’s King.
But Merlin was not amused that another mans wife was sorely abused, he took the Sword of Excalibur might and cast it deep into a lake at night
But Pendragon begged mercy for what he had done and asked Merlin to give the sword to his only son.
So on a dark winters night long ago, Merlin and Arthur waited by the deep lake of lost souls, Merlin gave a mystic sign as a hand did rise, the sword held tight as the blade did pass onto Arthur that fateful night.
Use it well Merlin said for if you don’t Excalibur will strike you stone dead its the truth that unfolds here for the knights of the round table still whisper
his name, King Arthur the brave who fights with his sword all those who would conquer Cornwall’s shores
