``Was it in battle that Lancelot de Lac and Sir Tristram won renown?
we were Tristram and Yseult, we were all the great lovers in the Pantheon of love.
One might just as well try to make out that the history of Guarino Mezquino, or of the quest of the Holy Grail, is false, or that the loves of Tristram and the Queen Yseult are apocryphal, as well as those of Guinevere and Lancelot, when there are persons who can almost remember having seen the Dame Quintanona, who was the best cupbearer in Great Britain.
