I thought all the eggheads kept saying the King Arthur stories are apocryphal and that he probably never existed, and this story appears to be saying just the opposite.
GGG ping.
I saw one documentary where “Arthur” was said to be really a great ancient general and warrior chief with the luxury of having some time in between battles. How he got from there to being “King Arthur”, I have no idea.
I wonder how a castle with walls one meter thick can become buried and stay hidden for 1400 years.
ARTHUR:
It’s true! It’s true! The crown has made it clear.
The climate must be perfect all the year.
A law was made a distant moon ago here:
July and August cannot be too hot.
And there’s a legal limit to the snow here
In Camelot.
The winter is forbidden till December
And exits March the second on the dot.
By order, summer lingers through September
In Camelot.
Camelot! Camelot!
I know it sounds a bit bizarre,
But in Camelot, Camelot
That’s how conditions are.
The rain may never fall till after sundown.
By eight, the morning fog must disappear.
In short, there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here
In Camelot.
Camelot! Camelot!
I know it gives a person pause,
But in Camelot, Camelot
Those are the legal laws.
The snow may never slush upon the hillside.
By nine p.m. the moonlight must appear.
In short, there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here
In Camelot.
It is a silly p(a)lace.
Interesting. Thanx for posting! A break from all the political drama....
What else could thy possibly be?
1st knight: “camelot!”
2nd knight: “camelot!”
3rd knight: “camelot!”
Valet: (mumbles) “It’s only a model!”
All: “shhh!”
