[[Karelia's Song]]<br />
<pre><br />
Now the Baron of Eastmarch's fair sorcerous daughter<br />
was enamored unseemly with the fool of her lord.<br />
Though her Duke was deemed handsome, he'd a soul vain and petty<br />
and a dark mind as empty as last summer's gourd.<br />
<br />
And the fool he was clever and he sang for the lady<br />
like a nightingale piping in a deep forest grove.<br />
But his station was lowly and his body was ageing<br />
and their love was as hopeless as if he was stone.<br />
<br />
So the lady has led them, the fool and her husband<br />
to her cool secret garden by the midsummer's moon.<br />
And she’s danced them a spell there of shifting and changing<br />
and left them dumbfounded by sorcery's boon.<br />
<br />
She has left a fool crying to the gods of his fathers.<br />
She has led her duke laughing to her high chamber door.<br />
And she's kept him there softly, through two days bright dawnings<br />
while her servants all gossiped in wonder and awe.<br />
<br />
So the fool died in madness, saying he was ensorcelled<br />
and the duke only smiled him a sad secret smile.<br />
Now her duke rules his people with wit and good humor<br />
and he sings for his lady like the nightingale's song.<br />
<br />
And she's borne him five children, two sons and three daughters<br />
and they've grown straight and handsome, and sorcerous all.<br />
And they dance in the garden and they sing in the moonlight,<br />
like nightingales piping in green forest halls.<br />
