    “scarce other than my king’s ideal knight” (I. 7). However, once this connection is established, the list of characteristics which Tennyson attributes to both the fictional King Arthur and the Prince Consort actually serves to prove the deficiencies in the King. For example, despite the claims that Arthur “spake no slander, no, nor listen’d to it” (I. 9), at several points he is actually “vexed at a rumor issued from [Vivien]/ of some corruption among his knights” (VI. 151-152).
