In its present shape it is certainly posterior to the appearance of the Galahad _Queste_, to which it contains several direct references; such are the hermit's allusion to the predicted circumstances of his death, which are related in full in the _Queste_; the prophecy that Perceval shall "aid" in the winning of the Holy Grail, a quest of which in the earlier version he is sole achiever; and the explicit statements of the closing lines as to Galahad's arrival at Court, his filling the Siege Perilous, and achieving the Adventures of the Round Table.

Who acts: tradition, predicted circumstances, prophecy, Perceval, Queste, Holy Grail · What happens: be, contain, predict, aid, fill, achieve · To what, where: present shape, several direct references, full, winning, sole achiever, Siege Perilous
