"The beginning of the poem describes the heroism of Arthur's knights as they seek the Grail, imagining that the vision of the Grail is also a vision of the Cross. The latter part of the poem challenges its readers to live by their knightly ideals." —Ann F. Howey and Stephen R. Reimer, <i>A Bibliography of Modern Arthuriana, 1500–2000</i>
First appeared in a temperance-themed poetry anthology, The Cross and the Grail, published in 1887 by the Woman's Temperance Publishing Association.
