In Britain's land beyond the seas
The wind blows ever through the trees;
in Britain's land beyond the waves
are stony shores and stony caves.

So begins The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun, an early but seminal work that grew, along with the two "Corrigan" poems presented alongside it in this volume, from a comparatively short but intense period in Tolkien's life when he was deeply engaged with Celtic, and particularly Breton, myth and legend.
Aotrou and Itroun are a Breton lord and lady residing "in Britain's land beyond the seas" during the mythic age of chivalry. Childless and desperate for an heir, Aotrou seeks out a magic potion from a corrigan, or malevolent fairy. When the potion succeeds, the corrigan returns to demand her fee, and Aotrou is forced to choose between his marriage and his life.
Originally written in 1930 and long out of print, The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun may be set alongside Tolkien's The Legend of Sigurd and Gudr n, The Fall of Arthur, and The Story of Kullervo. Like these other retellings of myths and legends, it was a powerful influence on Tolkien's own legendarium.

Wouldn't buy again

I have mixed feelings about this. I want to like it - and for the most part I do. However, I cant give it full marks because the item I received looks dirty. I'm not sure if there was dirt or something else in the mold or material that was used to make the plastic on the nail clippers, but there is clearly dirt or mold imbedded into the plastic. It looks horrible and makes me question the sanitariness of the items which is not something I want when it comes to items for a baby. Everything else looks ok for the most part. The brush is soft, the scissors are nice and they cut well. The nail files are similar to those you'd find in press on nail kits and they're very small making them a bit harder to use. I like that this comes in a nice case to keep everything together. I do feel this is a bit overpriced in my opinion though.
