swords. The knights who guarded the chapel were ghosts.

Sir Lancelot enters the Chapel Perilous

So Sir Lancelot entered the Chapel Perilous. There were no windows in the walls, but many lamps hung from the ceiling.

lTheChapPerilous

Strange shadows moved on the walls. At the end of the chapel, there was a large, flat stone. The body of a knight was lying on this stone. Lancelot went to the body and saw that it was covered with a silk cloth. He cut a piece of the cloth with his swordandhelditihandhis .

Suddenly, there was a sound like thunder. Then the floor moved. Lancelot walked back to the doorway and went

Lancelot heard their terrible voices.

'Knight! Do not take the cloth from the chapel,' they said. 'If you take the cloth, you will die. And you will never see Guinevere again.'

'Ghosts! You have no power over me,' said Lancelot. 'Let me pass.'

not fight them. The knights did not have bodies like living men. Instead, they pushed against Sir Lancelot like the thick smoke of a fire.

'The Lady Gilbert is dead,' said Sir Lancelot. 'I have brought a cloth from the Chapel Perilous to heal your wound.'

'I will return to Camelot,' said Lancelot. 'And I will tell the

t	No man had seen Elaine. She lived in the highest room of

the tower. The room's walls had no windows, but it was bright because light came through windows in the ceiling. There were many mirrors on the walls that reflected this light. Elaine looked at the mirrors and she saw the world outside her tower.

A minstrel40 comes to Camelot

King Arthur sat at the Round Table and Lancelot and Gawain sat opposite him. But the seat between Lancelot

and Gawain, the Siege Perilous, was still empty.

'No man has ever sat in the Siege Perilous,' said Arthur. 'Merlin told us many years ago that only the purest knight

Camelot,' said Gawain.

'Sire,' said Lancelot. 'A minstrel has come to Camelot who plays a harp41 and tells stories. He has travelled to Ireland and knows many stories. Perhaps he can tell us the name of a famous knight whom we do not know.'

So Arthur called the minstrel to the great hall. All the knight ans theid ladier sa anwaited fominstredth e lttelo l

The minstrel was tall and he had a fair face. But his clothes were poor and his shoes were old. He held a harp in his hand. toucheH thstringde so thf hare witp fingerhis

The story of Tristram

'I will tell the story of Tristram,' the minstrel said in a clear voice. 'Tristram is a knight of Lyonesse - a land in the far west. King Mark of Cornwall is Sir Tristram's uncle.

'Before Arthur became king, there was war between

Cornwall and Ireland. The rulers of Ireland were King Gurman

eyes and strong hands. He left Ireland and went to Cornwall.

He spoke to King Mark.

'"The people and the land of Cornwall belong to King Gurman of Ireland now," said Marhault. "You must send a gift to Ireland. You must send fifteen boys and fifteen girls to be servants in Ireland.'"

Tristram and Iseult

Thelovepotion

'Iseult's servant did not like the sea. She felt ill, so she lay down and slept. And while she slept, Tristram saw the bottle of wine. "Let us drink and be happy," he said to Iseult.

Tristram and Iseult drank the love potion. Already they loved one another and the potion made their love stronger. Now they loved one another until the ending of the world, and they loved with a love greater than any in the world.

'The ship reached Cornwall and King Mark welcomed Tristram. "You are my greatest knight and my champion," said King Mark. "And Iseult is the fairest maiden in the world. We shall be married immediately."

'So, King Mark married Iseult the Fair. But Iseult loved Tristram and after her wedding to King Mark, Queen Iseult met Sir Tristram in secret. They met in forests and places where no one saw them. But people soon began to talk about Iseult the Fair and the king's champion. The other knights spoke to King Mark. "Your wife and the Champion are untrue to you. They are lovers," said the knights.'
