The Lady of Shalott


She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the room,
She saw the water-lily bloom,
She saw the helmet and the plume,
She look'd down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
"The curse is come upon me," cried
The Lady of Shalott.

  1. Hi Diane!
    Dad said that this poem has actually been put to music by Loreena McKennitt. It lasts 11 minutes. I asked him if it was good and he offered to let me listen to it.
    He said that it is very good. Contemporary Celtic music.
