Legend Land, Vol 3

by Lyonesse

Legend Land, Vol 3 PDF edition and other Lyonesse books available for free download from our library.

This third volume of Legend Land tells some more of the old stories of those peoples, kindred in origin, the Welsh and the Cornish. They are mostly the old tales that have survived—who shall say how many generations?

If you look into them, with the eyes of imagination, you will see behind them the simplest romances of a very simple people; a people that explained some uncomprehended thing with some comprehensible story, or who would invest the memories of their great men and women with records of wonderful achievement often formerly attributed to some yet earlier hero. But that is a student’s occupation. Many weighty tomes have been written upon the origins of folk-lore.
