The dove escaped from enemy whose aim
Was to destroy the castle. The costliest thing
Was there preserved; somebody craves to bring
Down to the son of dawn his dream, to maim
The Universe, and he would be the king
Of the false kingdom, but from filthy flame
The dove escaping flew because her name
Was Eclairmonde, and her world-winning wing
Touched here the mossy mountain in the space
Where springs the Katharina-bourn; no beast
Sees itself in this mirror, but her face
I saw among the violets; the least
Germ thrives in Germany, where thence her grace
She left and flew for ever to the East.

Your opinion is always interesting, aber hier ist auch das Echo von Monsalvat.
