Classic Starts · 17 The Story of King Arthur and His Knights Howard Pyle
Conclusion Of course, things are rarely that simple, and this was no exception. Arthur did not immediately become king. While many were happy finally to have peace in the troubled land, others still refused to accept the outcome. Instead they demanded that Arthur go through further trials. For the sake of peace, the Archbishop agreed. He ordered a second sword challenge
当然,事情很少这么简单,这次也不例外。 亚瑟王并没有立即成为国王。 虽然许多人很高兴终于在这片动乱的土地上实现了和平,但仍有人拒绝接受这一结果。 相反,他们要求亚瑟接受进一步的审判。 为了和平起见,大主教同意了。 他下令进行第二次剑斗
at Candle-mas, where the entire process was repeated again. There was then a third challenge at Easter and a fourth at Pentecost. After the fourth trial, most people were not only convinced, but by then loved Arthur completely. Finally the Archbishop made it official. With Merlin's help and good advice, Arthur built a great and powerful kingdom called Camelot. He also made friends of other kings. While Arthur's few enemies remained and waged war against him, he was able to hold off their attacks and win the wars. He drove his enemy King Pellinore away from his possessions and into the forest.

members of Arthur's court. As peace settled upon the land, Arthur's greatness, as greatness will, began to attract more greatness still. Men of noble souls and great skill, who also wished to achieve glory at arms in the courts of chivalry, began to gather around the king. These worthy men would be known as the Worthies, the Knights, or the Ancient and Honorable Companions of the Round Table. Their noble stories shall also follow.
亚瑟王的宫廷成员 随着和平降临,亚瑟王的伟大,正如伟大的意志,开始吸引更多的伟大。 有高尚的灵魂和高超的技巧的人,他们也希望在骑士的法庭上获得荣誉,开始聚集在国王周围。 这些有价值的人被称为“有价值的人”、“骑士”或“圆桌的古老而光荣的同伴”。 他们高尚的事迹也将随之流传。
