Cover and Introduction

The cover of Galehaut (or Gallehaut as I sometimes called it).  Someone once defaced it with a coffee mug. The pattern is based on  a William Morris design (I drew all of it).. I was a  member for the Morris Society for years. And I had the privilege to stay in many rooms of the Manor where they had original Morris wallpaper.

The second page. The wreathing calligraphy in the middle says "Meleager"

Now will I weave white violets, daffodils     With myrtle spray, And lily bells that trembling laughter fills,     And the sweet crocus gay: With these blue hyacinth, and the lover’s rose         5     That she may wear— My sun-maiden—each scented flower that blows,     Upon her scented hair. Right. Now I can get on about how I delivered the flowers and got my clothes clean.
