SynopsisExcerpt from The Story of Elaine, the Lily Maid of Astolat: From the Arthurian Iegends Collected by Sir Thomas Malory, and Later Writers; With Nine Illustrations Malory, it is a legend ranking with the highest e'brts of more ambitious genius. That the graceful story, so beautiful and touching, should so long have been overlooked by the genius of more modern writers is surprising; but in our times it has assumed a form in which the delicate gradations of the young girl's love and innocence are subtly delineated. In the older form of the legend the picture is presented in a framework of chivalrous adventure; and, as rendering the story more varied and complete in its accessories, the compiler of the following version has preserved the characteristics of the older writers. In the Illustrations Gustave Dor has shown how fully he has appreciated the sentiment and pathos of the legend, and some of them are acknowledged to be among.
