![Page 8: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Tennyson wrote two versions of the poem, one published in 1833, of twenty stanzas, the other
in 1842 of nineteen stanzas.

(No. LXXXII in the collection Cento Novelle Antiche), with the earlier version being closer to the source material than the later

No time hath she to sport and play:
![Page 51: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Her weaving, either night or day,

To look down to Camelot.

She knows not what the curse may be;

The sheepbell tinkles in her ear.
![Page 62: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Before her hangs a mirror clear,

And as the mazy web she whirls,

She sees the surly village churls,
![Page 66: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
And the red cloaks of market girls
![Page 67: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)

Sometimes a troop of damsels glad,

Sometimes a curly shepherd-lad,

Or long-haired page in crimson clad,

But in her web she still delights

Part III
![Page 87: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
A bow-shot from her bower-eaves,
![Page 88: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
He rode between the barley-sheaves,
![Page 89: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
The sun came dazzling through the leaves,
![Page 90: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
And flamed upon the brazen greaves
![Page 91: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Of bold Sir Lancelot.
![Page 92: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
A red-cross knight for ever kneeled
![Page 93: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
To a lady in his shield,
![Page 94: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
That sparkled on the yellow field,
![Page 95: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Beside remote Shalott.
![Page 96: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
The gemmy bridle glittered free
![Page 97: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Like to some branch of stars we see
![Page 98: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Hung in the golden Galaxy.
![Page 99: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
The bridle bells rang merrily
![Page 100: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
As he rode down to Camelot:
![Page 101: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
And from his blazoned baldric slung
![Page 102: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
A mighty silver bugle hung,
![Page 103: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
And as he rode his armour rung,
![Page 104: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Beside remote Shalott.
![Page 105: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
All in the blue unclouded weather
![Page 106: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Thick-jewelled shone the saddle-leather,
![Page 107: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
The helmet and the helmet-feather
![Page 108: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
Burned like one burning flame together,
![Page 109: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
As he rode down to Camelot.
![Page 110: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
As often through the purple night
![Page 111: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Below the starry clusters bright,
![Page 112: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Some bearded meteor, trailing light,
![Page 113: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
Moves over still Shalott.
![Page 114: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
His broad clear brow in sunlight glowed;
![Page 115: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
On burnished hooves his war-horse trode;
![Page 116: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
From underneath his helmet flowed
![Page 117: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
His coal-black curls as on he rode,
![Page 118: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
As he rode down to Camelot.
![Page 119: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
From the bank and from the river
![Page 120: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
He flashed into the crystal mirror,
![Page 121: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
“Tirra lirra," by the river
![Page 122: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Sang Sir Lancelot.
![Page 123: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
She left the web, she left the loom,
![Page 124: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
She made three paces through the room,
![Page 125: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
She saw the water-lily bloom,
![Page 126: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
She saw the helmet and the plume,
![Page 127: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/127.jpg)
She looked down to Camelot.
![Page 128: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/128.jpg)
Out flew the web and floated wide;
![Page 129: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/129.jpg)
The mirror cracked from side to side;
![Page 130: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/130.jpg)
“The curse is come upon me," cried
![Page 131: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/131.jpg)
The Lady of Shalott.
![Page 132: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
Part IV
![Page 133: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
In the stormy east-wind straining,
![Page 134: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/134.jpg)
The pale yellow woods were waning,
![Page 135: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
The broad stream in his banks complaining,
![Page 136: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
Heavily the low sky raining
![Page 137: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)
Over towered Camelot;
![Page 138: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)
Down she came and found a boat
![Page 139: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/139.jpg)
Beneath a willow left afloat,
![Page 140: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/140.jpg)
And round about the prow she wrote
![Page 141: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/141.jpg)
The Lady of Shalott.
![Page 142: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
And down the river’s dim expanse,
![Page 143: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/143.jpg)
Like some bold seër in a trance
![Page 144: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/144.jpg)
Seeing all his own mischance--
![Page 145: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/145.jpg)
With a glassy countenance
![Page 146: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/146.jpg)
Did she look to Camelot.
![Page 147: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
And at the closing of the day
![Page 148: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/148.jpg)
She loosed the chain, and down she lay;
![Page 149: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/149.jpg)
The broad stream bore her far away,
![Page 150: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/150.jpg)
The Lady of Shalott.
![Page 151: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/151.jpg)
Lying, robed in snowy white
![Page 152: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/152.jpg)
That loosely flew to left and right--
![Page 153: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
The leaves upon her falling light--
![Page 154: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/154.jpg)
Through the noises of the night
![Page 155: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
She floated down to Camelot:
![Page 156: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/156.jpg)
And as the boat-head wound along
![Page 157: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/157.jpg)
The willowy hills and fields among,
![Page 158: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/158.jpg)
They heard her singing her last song,
![Page 159: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/159.jpg)
The Lady of Shalott.
![Page 160: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/160.jpg)
Heard a carol, mournful, holy,
![Page 161: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/161.jpg)
Chanted loudly, chanted lowly,
![Page 162: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/162.jpg)
Till her blood was frozen slowly,
![Page 163: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/163.jpg)
And her eyes were darkened wholly,
![Page 164: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
Turned to towered Camelot.
![Page 165: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/165.jpg)
For ere she reached upon the tide
![Page 166: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/166.jpg)
The first house by the water-side,
![Page 167: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
Singing in her song she died,
![Page 168: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)
The Lady of Shalott.
![Page 169: Tennysons' the lady of shalott poem with images](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103110/546fd102af7959f3518b47ea/html5/thumbnails/169.jpg)
Under tower and balcony,
