Merlin is a book written by Edwin Arlington Robinson. This book is a narrative poem that tells the story of the legendary wizard Merlin who has been imprisoned by the Lady of the Lake. The story is set in the time of King Arthur and his knights, and it revolves around Merlin's attempts to escape from his captivity and regain his powers. The book is divided into three parts, and each part tells a different aspect of Merlin's story. In the first part, the reader is introduced to Merlin and his predicament. The second part of the book focuses on Merlin's visions of the future, including the downfall of King Arthur and the rise of Mordred. The final part of the book deals with Merlin's final fate and his eventual release from his captivity.Throughout the book, Robinson's poetic language creates a vivid and mystical atmosphere that captures the essence of the Arthurian legend. The book is also notable for its exploration of themes such as power, destiny, and the consequences of one's actions.Overall, Merlin is a beautifully written and engaging narrative poem that offers a fresh and insightful perspective on one of the most enduring legends of Western literature.And many a moving candle, in whose light The prisoned wizard, mirrored in amazement, Saw fronting him a stranger, falcon-eyed, Firm-featured, of a negligible age, And fair enough to look upon, he fancied, Though not a warrior born, nor more a courtier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
