Excerpt from The Romance of Palombris and Pallogris: The Second Magic Tale But when this tale begins, there dwelt an old lord in the tower, his name is not written, but he was an old man, white-bearded, tall, and so straight that no lance could be straighter. A proud man he was, too, and much given to thinking over old times and long past days. He had a little grandson, whose name was Palombris. Palombris had no father or mother, nor remem brance of any, but he had a nurse for foster mother, a strong handsome quean of the wood people. He grew up in the wood like Percevale in the ancient stories, knowing nought of the world beyond. He was small, yet strong for his age, and round of face and dark of hair, and a dreamer of dreams, as was like to be: for what he did not know he filled up to his own content out of thoughts and fancies, and things gathered from ballads and stories, which he pieced together in his mind.
