Love Is Enough

Love is enough

by William Morris

'Love Is Enough' is a long narrative poem by William Morris, written in 1873. It's a tale of chivalry and courtly love set in a medieval world, where the protagonist, a knight named Geoffrey, is torn between his duty to his king and his love for a lady named Enid. The poem explores themes of love, duty, honor, and the power of nature, while also offering a critique of the social inequalities and injustices of Morris's own time.
