The lamentation of King Arthur for Sir Gawain in The Fall of Arthur papers is at once in the very earliest stage of composition and unhappily in my father’s most inscrutable hand. After much study this is the best rendering that I have been able to produce.

Then gloom fell grey on the good king’s heart

and he groans amid gliding tears

looking upon his eyes now closed for ever

and his lips like lead and [? lily faded].

Then his [? crown] he cast down crying aloud

‘Dear kinsman in care am I left

now my glory is gone and my grace [written above: good]

ended.

Here lies my hope and my help and my helm and my sword

my heart and my hardihood and my ..... of strength

my counsel and comfort

of all knights the [?? noblest].

of all [?kings] the ............. Christ lived

To be king .............. I the crown bore.

I am ...... [?utterly ruined] in mine own lands.

Ah, dread death thou dwellest too long,

thou drownest my heart ere I die.
