we defend our kingdom against attack, <br />our king so full of joy, <br />his court full of guests and guards, <br />as our soldiers defend us well, <br />the saxons try to take us by force, <br />as we defend our walls from destruction, <br />they sigh that they have lost, <br />our defenses too strong for their arrows, <br />and surrender to our guards.<br /><br />Nicholas Spandrel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-duties-of-the-king/
