      @@t.wcharles2171The epics of old were meant to be told time and time again. Each generation adding their own spin on the story, giving them new meaning. Just because this is based off a Victorian-era poem doesn’t mean it isn’t still retelling the epics of old. I think it’s a shame such things don’t happen much today.

    What is now known as Glastonbury was, in ancient times, called the Isle of Avalon. It is virtually an island, for it is completely surrounded by marshlands. In Welsh it is called Ynys Afallach, which means the Island of Apples and this fruit once grew in great abundance. After the Battle of Camlann, a noblewoman called Morgan, later the ruler and patroness of these parts as well as being a close blood-relation of King Arthur, carried him off to the island, now known as Glastonbury, so that his wounds could be cared for. Years ago the district had also been called Ynys Gutrin in Welsh, that is the Island of Glass, and from these words the invading Saxons later coined the place-name "Glastingebury".

    That part hurts for me, having lost a lot of my old friends over the years. It gets worse when you remember that Bedivere was one of King Arthur's first and was the last of his Knights at his King's side.

    Hey, I like the Final Fantasy version of Gilgamesh, and one of my favorite animated series as a kid was "King Arthur And The Knights Of Justice," which was basically an Arthurian-flavored "Masters Of The Universe"/"Power Rangers" mashup.

    Ac yn awr, O farwolaeth Arthur y canaf.
    A sut, I'r ynys Avalon hwyliodd.
    Y brenin unwaith ac yn y dyfodol.
    Ar fynydd a ger môr y gaeaf, marchogaeth din tarian a chleddyf. Syrthiodd dyn bwrdd Arthur Arthur wrth ddyn i gyd am eu harglwydd.
    Yna beiddgar Benevere yn gweld ei gelwydd, gyda'i glwyf yn rhy ddwfn i wella. Diflaswch y brenin yng ngolau lleuad, i gapel ger y cae.
    Yna dywedodd y brenin "Cymerwch nawr fy nghleddyf a chyda pha nerth y gallwch chi; I mewn i'r llif dŵr dyfnaf Excalibur fy brand"
    Gyda'r holl nerth y gallai ddod o hyd iddo.
    I ddiweddu nid oedd yn gwybod ble. Bwriodd Benevere y Blade Brenhinol yn awyr gyfnos y bore.
    Felly cwympodd y brand Excalibur.
    Ond yna cododd llaw. I fyny o'r dyfroedd yn dywyll ac yn ddwfn. Daliodd y brand nerthol.
    Tair gwaith fe wywodd Excalibur, a thrwy'r awyr fe lewyrchodd. Yna i ddyfroedd du suddodd; dim mwy i'w weld.
    Wele gwch cysglyd yn ymddangos. Trwy gysgod yn symud ymlaen. Yna dywedodd y Brenin Arthur yn anadlu'n galed "Yr amser hwn roeddwn i wedi mynd."
    "Yn fy ngalluogi yn y cwch" meddai. Felly i'r cwch daethon nhw.
    Estynnodd tair morwyn dyner eu dwylo a galw'r brenin wrth ei enw.
    "Nawr. Fi yw fy mrenin yn unig!" Gwaeddodd Benevere yn uchel. "Wither a af fy mrenin. Nawr mae ein byd wedi marw."
    Bu Syr Benevere yn hir. Mewn tristwch; edrych ymlaen.

    And now, Of the death of Arthur I shall sing.
    And how, To the island Avalon he sailed.
    The once and future king.
    By mountain and by winter sea, rode the din of shield and sword. Till Arthur's table man by man all fell about their lord.
    Then bold Benevere seeing his liege, with wound too deep to heal. Bore the king by light of moon, to a chapel near the field.
    Then said the king " Take now my sword and with what strength you can; Into the deepest water fling Excalibur my brand"
    With all the strength that he could find.
    To end he knew not where. Benevere cast the Royal Blade in the morning twilight air.
    So fell the brand Excalibur.
    But then there rose a hand. Up from the waters dark and deep. It caught the mighty brand.
    Three times it wield Excalibur, and through the air it gleamed. Then to waters black it sank; no more to be seen.
    Behold a dusky barge appeared. Through shadow moving on. King Arthur breathing hard then said " Tis time that I were gone."
    "Lays me in the barge" he said. So to the barge they came.
    Three gentle maids stretched out their hands and called the king by name.
    "Now. I am alone my king!" Benevere loudly cried. "Wither shall I go my king. Now our world has died."
    There long stood Sir Benevere. In sadness; looking on.
    Until the ship was one black dot against the verge of dawn

    A bard, in antiquity, is an official of a bardic system, specialized in the administration, the education, the laws, the arts and the letters; in everything related to memory, culture, justice, science and poetry (literally: lay authority, author of Lays, secular).
    late and by extension, the word bard is used as a synonym for poet or singer Breton (barz), Welsh (bardd).
    In modern Gaelic languages, a bard (bard) or a bardesse (bana-bhàrd) is a person who composes poetry, declaims it or
    puts it to music, most often to the harp (clàrsach).
    Gaelic words are derived from Old Irish and resemble Gallic Bardos and Greek Frázw.

    The tale of Arthur and Excalibur was one that my father told me when I was a tiny child. It has always stayed in my memory. Why is it, Peter Pringle, that I always sense with you that you compose and perform this type of song because you have known life in the times you sing about. I believe in reincarnation - do you? I think you deserve even greater recognition, even though I know you have a large loyal fan base. Keep composing and performing. You are unique.

    You sir, are a true delight. I always appreciate the attention you give to your video descriptions. I love that you teach us about the instruments and corresponding time periods that go with them. I would love to hear more of the Epic of Gilgamesh that one is my favorite.

      It is really interesting how old this instrument is, the gurdy existed throughout the medieval era. Apperantly there used to also be a stationary variant with an assistant operating the crank.

    When I was small In my aunts place in my old country there was a book on the Knights of the round table. Very well done (non Color) drawings. Eg. There was one of a dragon lizard on a mountain and a knight facing it. and Merlin trapped in a cave hitting against the door rock. Modred charging Arthur. Especially I remember the drawing of this scene - with the knight watching the glowing boat sail away. Sadly after all the years now I never found the book online...cant remember the name.
