Legents:Excalibur

A long time ago, so the story goes, a young boy called Arthur became the King of England after he pulled a sword out of a stone.


The sword was Excalibur. It had a lot of  power. The lady of the Lake gave it to King Uther but asked him to give her his first born child.Uther became powerful. When  his first  child  was born , Merlin the magician came to take the baby. Uther tried to stop him but thieves attacked him.Before he died , he put Excalibur into a stone and asked Merlin to make his son a king.Merlin promised that only someone with a pure heart could pull it out and become the next King of England.

When Arthur pulled the sword out people were  surprised.

Merlin explained that Arthur was Uther's  son and the people were happy.

Arthur was a good king.He built a big castle, Camelot and ruled over England with his knights. He called them the knights of the round Table.Together they made England a strong country.

Can you explain the words?

pull out ,give become, attack, die, put , promise, explain, build, rule, call, make

Next are you able to tell the legend of King Arthur?
