Your spirit, and my spirit, and that one

Who stands between us; and I see the realm,

I dreamed to make one flawless crystal, cracked

To fragments; and the loss, the waste. But now

I am come, through anguish and against my will,

Into a light that shows me what I am,

And where I go, and what endures beyond.

Were it not for the pain, I had not known.

In ignorance we tear each other’s hearts.

Know you, Gawaine is gone, dead of his wound?
