How Merlin, mightiest of magicians, was bewitched by a woman's spell is among the most compelling, and the strangest, of episodes in the Arthurian story.
In this striking poem, Ralph de Tunstall Sneyd, himself all but wizardlike in his lifetime's explorations of arcane and curious lore, vividly illuminates the electric charge of emotion, bridging the extremes of years between the betrayed and betrayer.
Beautifully apt illustrations by respected Arthurian artist Ian Brown enhance the pleasure of rediscovery.
