:Sir Galahad
Sir Galahad was the noblest and purest of the Knights of the Round Table. Because he is entirely free of sin, Galahad succeeded in finding the Holy Grail while many other knight of King Arthur failed.
Galahad was the son of the knight Lancelot and the lady Elaine. He was brought up by a nun until, at age 15, he was introduced to his father, who made him a knight and accompanied him to Arthur’s court. There Galahad went directly to the seat called the Siege Perilous, which was reserved for the knight so pure that he would someday find the Holy Grail. All others who had tried to take the seat had been swallowed up by the earth. At the time the knights there found a great stone with a sword stuck in it. On the sword were these words:“No one shall draw me out of this stone except the Knight at whose side I am to hang. And he must be the best knight in the world.” Many of the knights tried, but none could draw out the sword. But Sir Galahad drew it easily from the stone.
During the search for the Grail, Galahad showed himself to be a superb knight. He succeeded in finding the holy object not because he was strong or skillful in fighting, but because he was pure in heart. After finding the Grail with two other knights, Percival and Bors, Galahad became King of Sarras. He died one year later.
加拉哈德爵士
加拉哈德爵士是圓桌騎士中最純潔高尚的一個。由於他清白無瑕,最終找到了聖盃。而其他大多數騎士則無功而返。
加拉哈德是朗斯洛與伊蓮的兒子,由一個修女撫養大,15歲時時見到朗斯洛,朗斯洛把他訓練成騎士,帶到亞瑟王的宮廷裡。加拉哈德見到圓桌旁的“危座”,徑直走過去坐下來。“危座”是留給能找到聖盃的最聖潔騎士的,以前曾有人嘗試入座,都被大地吞了下去。此時,騎士們發現一塊巨石,巨石中插有一把寶劍,劍上刻有銘文:“此劍屬於世上的最佳騎士,只有他才能拔出此劍,佩帶身邊。”很多人試過,但只有加拉哈德一人不費吹灰之力就拔出了寶劍。
在尋找聖盃的過程中,加拉哈德做的每一件事都使他無愧於最佳騎士的名聲。他的成功並非因為他有過人的力量和武藝,而是因為他的聖潔。與另外兩位騎士博斯和珀西瓦爾找到聖盃後,加拉哈德當上了薩拉斯的國王,一年後死去。
題外話:到底是中世紀的傳奇,更看重聖潔,而不是蠻悍。與現代美國電影中的英雄大不相同
:The Holy Grail
The Holy Grail is the cup that Jesus Christ used at the Last Supper. Joseph of Arimathea, theman who gave up his own tomb so that Jesus could be buried in it, kept the Grail and collectedJesus’ blood in it when Jesus was put to death on a cross. Joseph was wupposed to have takenit to Britain, where the cup was passed down from generation to generation in his family.Because the Holy Grail had belonged to Jesus, it had magic powers. It could supply food forthose without sin, and make people who were not pure enough blind or mute when they cameclose to it. Later, however, when the Grail fell into the hands of a man who was evil andunworthy of owning it, it disappeared.
One day, when the Round Table Knights gathered in a hall in Arthur’s castle, the Grail appearedfor a moment in the air accompanied with lightning, though most of the knights could not seeit. Then 150 knights decided to sarch throughout Britain for the Grail. The knights wentthrough many dangerous adventures during their search. Lancelot failed in the search, becauseof the sin of his love affair with Guenevere; Gawain gave up the search. Only three knights---Bors, Galahad, and Perceval---were pure enough in life to find the Grail in the castle ofCorbenic. They took the Grail to the distant city of Sarras. There, after Galahad died, Bors andPerceval saw the Grail rise into heaven. According to the legend, no one has been seen theHoly Grail since that time.
