The High History of the Holy Graal

-Originally written in Old French, sometime in the early half of the 13th Century A.D., as a continuation of Chrétien de Troyes' unfinished work "Perceval, or the Knight of the Grail":

This history saith that the land of this King was full far away from the land of King Arthur, and that needs must he pass two seas or ever he should approach the first head of King Arthur's land.
