Some family trees from Mike Dixon’s dictionary!
“Child, it is yours to go with Iseult to King Mark’s country,
for you love her with a faithful love. Take then this pitcher and remember
well my words. Hide it so that no eye shall see nor no lip go near it: but
when the wedding night has come and that moment in which the wedded are
left alone, pour this essenced wine into a cup and offer it to King Mark
and to Iseult his queen. Oh! Take all care, my child, that they alone
shall taste this brew. For this is its power: they who drink of it
together love each other with their every single sense and with their
every thought, forever, in life and in death.”
Day 2: Tristan and Iseult (yes my definition of “British” folklore is very loose)
I love this story– it’s amazing that a romance based on a love potion can still be so moving and heartbreaking.
