CLAUDAS. Arthurian.
The name of a Frank king. It is a form of Latin Claudus
(q.v.), from
the vocabulary word claudus, meaning "lame.
... King Arthur was at Cardoil,
and so were his knights together with him. He thought to be
assured in his kingdom and to live peaceably; but what time he sate at
meat one day in Cardoil, behold you thereupon a knight that cometh
before the Table Round without saluting him. "Sir,"
saith he, "Where is Lancelot?" "Sir," saith
the King to the knight, "He is not in this country."
"By my head," saith the knight, "that misliketh me.
Wheresoever he be, he is your knight and of your household; wherefore
King Claudas sendeth you word that he is his mortal enemy, and you also,
if so be that for love of him you receive him from this day forward, for
he hath slain his sister's son, Meliant of the Waste Manor, and he slew
the father of Meliant likewise, but the father belongeth not to King
Claudas... (The High History of the Holy Graal, Evans-Gollancz,
1921)
