A
Lovely legend, to go with your tea:(Author) Geoffrey of Monmouth notes briefly in
his History that King Arthur was carried to the Island of Avalon for the
healing of his wounds. In a later work, The Life of Merlin, he elaborates
upon this, saying Avalon is ruled by nine sisters, the eldest and wisest being
Morgan. It is an earthly paradise, also called The Island of Apples or the
Fortunate Isle, where crops grow untended, apple trees spring up from the
short grass of its woods, and men live for a hundred years or more. Geoffrey
obviously associated its name with Welsh afellenau = apple trees and with
classical descriptions of the Fortunate Islands.
