The answer is: the sadness of the queens.

The excerpt from "Morte d'Arthur" the author Alfred Lord Tennyson makes reference to the three queens' weeping and sad sounds. Because King Arthur is dying, they feel so dismal that their painful lament makes the stars tremble. Finally, they cry heartbroken with Arthur on the barge.
