And fail not to withstand
The venture thou wast fain
To take unto thine hand!”

My edit: My OTPs in Arthurian Legends [3/?]: Mordred & Guinevere – The traitor of Camelot and the Fair Queen
(someone was interested about this ship? Maybe @fuckyeaharthuriana ?)
Well, yes, I ship them. Never forget that in older versions of the arthurian tales (like the Historia Regum Britanniae of Geoffrey of Monmouth, dated 1136, or the Romans of Brut, a translation in French dialect of the Historia of 1155) Guinevere cheated Arthur with Mordred and not with Lancelot (Lancelot was created by Chretien of Troyes in his famous poem
Lancelot ou le Chevalier à la charrette)
I’ve some headcanons about them, you could read them under the cut
All right, I finally did it and just bought the Camelot audioplay from 1968 with Patrick Macnee as King Arthur. The label says Patrick Macnee acts the role of the King (so I guess there will be not singing, and I’m not sure if I should be glad about it or unhappy…).
Label : World Record Club Records (T851)

These images are from
The History of the Valiant Knight Arthur of Little Britain. A Romance of Chivalry. This new edition “with a series of plates, from illuminated drawings contained in a valuable MS. of the original romance” was published in London in 1814 by White, Cochrane and Co.This is one of 175 small copies of a reprint of a 16th century book printed by
Robert Redborne in London.The engravings are signed C. Heath or Chas. Heath, likely Charles Theodosius Heath (1785-1848) an English engraver who was the son of James Heath, also an engraver. Heath’s work was much in demand, and he excelled at small plates for book illustration. He is also credited for producing the first British plates engraved on steel rather than copper in 1820.
