Re: A Wiltshire Tale - Nick Harper

Ah wonderful!

From this -

...where Merlin’s mound bound magic in the chalk down ground and the causeway side
where the white horse rides in the bright night sky when the bourne is high and wide
where was a hill hand-harrowed with the marrow of the barrow and the megalith henges aligned...


to this -

...“why you know not who I am
why none other than that famous feted Giles of Ham
who took the book from the dragon’s nook and stopped time’s falling sand
and I’ve a stone of my own so you take yours and get off my land!”


:-)


Thanks Jane, also to rocknicker for tracking it down and StoneLifter for Back to the Stones.
