Alfred, Lord Tennyson Quote

The king who fights his people fights himself.
And they my knights, who loved me once, the stroke
That strikes them dead is as my death to me.


Idylls of the King (composed 1833-1874)


The king who fights his people fights himself. And they my knights, who loved me once, the stroke That strikes them dead is as my death to me.
