As darkness befalls them, <br />The men rejoice to the sound of prince bard’s horn, <br />His armies defeat the Saxon warlords as they ravage the lands, <br />As soon as the light comes the Saxons are as dead, <br />While the mighty prince drinks his mead he dies of poison, <br />Which someone had hidden, <br />As soon as he dies the darkness befalls the land, <br />And all become sad.<br /><br />Nicholas Spandrel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-tale-of-bard-prince-of-men/
