From Morte D’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory Then Sir Bedivere departed and went to the sword and lightly took it up, and so he went to the water’s side; and there he bound the girdle about the hilts, and threw the sword as far into the water as he might. And there came an arm and a hand above the water and took it and clutched it, and shook it thrice and brandished; and then vanished away the hand with the sword into the water. So Sir Bedivere came again to the King and told him what he saw. “Alas,” said the King, “help me hence, for I dread me I have tarried overlong.” What is the main idea of this passage?
