I want to read this again, it being sometime since I read it (and I doubt I fully understood it back then). I remember loving it though, and it stuck in my head enough that when I looked at the painting I knew immediately what it was of, so though I remember little about it I'm sure it was good.

«Oyeron un himno doliente y sacro
cantado en alto, cantado quedamente,
hasta que se heló su sangre despacio
y sus ojos se nublaron del todo...»

I have a fondness for Arthurian lore and I enjoyed the poem--it's pretty hard to ruin Tennyson. BUT not a fan of the illustrations by Genevieve Cote. Some were lovely and added an eerie quality to the story but I didn't like how some looked like modern landscapes, it felt very strange and incongruous.
