1、夏洛特夫人（The Lady of Shalott）
简介：
故事开始于亚瑟王与圆桌武士的时代。夏洛特是一位美丽的女郎，住在一个离亚瑟王王宫不远的一个孤岛上的城堡里。仙女告诉她，她生来被诅咒，永远不能离开城堡，离开会带给她可怕的厄运。究竟是什么，却没有详述。夏洛特有一面镜子，这面镜子是她生活的重要部分，每天，她在城堡的塔楼上从这面镜子里看身后的世界，这是她唯一与世界沟通的工具。她从镜子里看到进进出出王宫的骑士和平民，也常常看到情侣在河边散步。她就把看到的场景用充满魔力的织布机织成挂毯，边织边歌唱。外面的人们常常听到她的歌声隐约响起，却从未见过她。
一天，圆桌骑士中的第一骑士兰斯洛特（Lancelot）的身影在镜子中出现了。夏洛特一看见他，便无可救药地爱上了他。她决定要去王宫找兰斯洛特，就在她刚刚踏出城堡的门槛的时候，镜子突然碎了，她知道她的厄运就要来临了。但为了向往的爱情，她选择了坦然面对，她要离开囚禁她的湖，乘船划向那个卡米洛城。如果能够见到他心爱的兰斯洛特，死又何惜。生命，不就是在追求之中完整的么？她把亲手编织的美丽挂毯铺在船上，松开缆绳，唱着生命中最后的悲歌，她任由小船顺流而下，穿过黑暗的森林，向着卡米洛城。
这是一次注定永远没有出口和尽头的黑暗旅行。这个为了向往的爱情而解下系在柳下小船顺着河流漂流而去的美丽姑娘，最终死在了船上。在黑暗的旅途中，她雪白的衣襟在风雨中飘摇，她最后的歌声穿过了山丘与原野，在卡米洛城久久飘荡。在最后的时刻她在船头刻下了自己的名字。她的歌声渐渐微弱，她的眼眸也随着黑夜降临，逐渐黯淡至无。

On either side of the river lie
河流的两岸
Long fields of barley and of rye,
狭长的田野遍布着大麦和黑麦
That clothe the world and meet the sky;
在大地上无尽地延展到天际
And thro' the field the road run by
一条大路穿过田地
To many-towered Camelot;
通到那高耸入云的卡米洛城
And up and down the people go,
人来人往
Gazing where the lilies blow
凝望着百合盛开的地方
Round an island there below,
那里鲜花环绕
The island of Shalott.

Willows whiten, aspens quiver,

Little breezes dusk and shiver

By the island in the river

Flowing down to Camelot.

And by the moon the reaper weary,

Piling sheaves in uplands airy,
一捆捆的麦束堆积在风吹过的高地
Listening, whispers "'tis the fairy
听呀，仙女在和谁在低语呢
The Lady of Shalott."
