QUEEN MARGARET'S BOWER

Queen Margaret of Scotland & the Isles

Photo by Photography on the Run.

There she weaves by night and day A magic web with colours gay. She has heard a whisper say, A curse is on her if she stay To look down to Camelot.

Click here to read The Lady of Shalott, a work that has a lot of meaning to me personally.

Remember what it felt like to watch it on the Big Screen? Braveheart: The Trailer

XVII. Unmarked, at least unrecked, the taunt, Careless the knight replied, "No bird whose feathers gaily flaunt Delights in cage to bide; Norham is grim and grated close, Hemmed in by battlement and fosse, And many a darksome tower; And better loves my lady bright To sit in liberty and light, In fair Queen Margaret's bower. We hold our greyhound in our hand, Our falcon on our glove; But where shall we find leash or band For dame that loves to rove? Let the wild falcon soar her swing, She'll stoop when she has tired her wing." --from Marmion: A Tale of Flodden Field by Sir Walter Scott
