Inspiration is to be gripped by the godly example.

Grail by Nina Sombart

To become a grail knight one must learn to speak right. It is a training in authentic and original and heart-felt speech, which holds at its golden cupping heart: peace. The knight rides his horse with silent alertness.
The training means

• To suspend judgment, criticism, cynicism
• To ward against bad habits, trite remarks or casual cusses.
• Undergo mockery and sharp tongues if need be. Rather act the fool than the smart-alec.
• To refrain from gossip .
• Don't complain, explain, be argumentative or feign politeness
• Selfmastery is to aspire like a singing lark (=Aluade = Al+Aude= high+song- Celtic)
  
  The Lark Ascending, by Vaughn Williams

Rainer Maria Rilke:

Sonnet 7, First Part

Praising, that's it! One appointed to praising,

he came like the ore forth from the stone's
silence. His heart, o ehemeral press
of a wine that for men is unending.

His voice never flags in the dust,
when the godly example grips him.
Everything turns to vineyard, to grape,
ripened in his sentient South.
. . .
He is one of the staying messengers,
who still holds far into the doors of the dead
bowls with fruits worthy of praise.
