"..But who hath seen her wave her hand?
Or at the casement seen her stand?
Or is she known in all the land,
The Lady of Shalott? "
"...There she weaves by night and day-- She has heard a whisper say,A curse is on her if she stay
To look down to Camelot. "
"...And moving through a mirror clear--that hangs before her all the year, Shadows of the world appear."
"...From the bank and from the river-- He flashed into the crystal mirror,..by the river sang Sir Lancelot."
"...She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the room,
She saw the water-lily bloom, She saw the helmet and the plume,
She look'd down to Camelot.
:..The mirror crack'd from side to side; "The curse is come upon me," cried The Lady of Shalott. "
"...Lying, robed in snowy white
That loosely flew to left and right -- The leaves upon her falling light -- Thro' the noises of the night, She floated down to Camelot.."
"..she reached upon the tide, the first house by the waterside
Singing in her song she died, The lady of Shalott"
"...Lancelot mused a little space
He said, "She has a lovely face;
God in his mercy lend her grace, The Lady of Shalott."
*When they found her dead on the boat in Camelot, she had a letter for Lancelot in one hand and a bunch of lillies on the other.She died of heartbreak for she could never get Lancelot's love. Although!! the letter said that he pay for her funeral with his gold!! ..GO lily maid of astolat..the Lady of Shalott! That was ttly midIEVAL :)
