" King of England art thou none. " Hoary stones for ever be " I myself an Alder Tree. " Stock still stood the war-king His warm blood froze to stone. On Cotswolds wind-swept upland He stands to this day alone. Behind him stand his army Stones weather-worn and grey. Nor ever shall their war-cry Ring o'er the hard fought fray. His knights stand in a cluster Changed by the Witches spell ; Treason plotting against him When doom on them befell. Silent, remote, for ages. Weather beaten and gray, Army... and Knights and King Stone Have stood there to this day. Page thirteen LEGENDS OF THE ROLLRIGHT, II. The Lord of the Manor of Rollright one day. Determined the King Stone to carry away. ' O'er the Rollright brook it will make a sound bridge, ' More useful by far than stuck up on this ridge. " So he called his men. Who with pickaxe and spade, Round the base of the King Stone a deep trench made. Then with ropes they encircled the massive block, And a horse attached, to pull over the rock. They sweated and struggled, they hauled, and they shoved, But never an inch had the giant stone moved.
