The Fabled Hare
Maddy Prior

I shall goe until a harenWi sorrow and such mickle carenI sall goe in the devil's namenAn while I go home againnnnI am ruled by the moonnI move under her mantlenI am the symbol of her moodsnOf rebirths cyclennI am companion to the GodsnI can conceive while I am pregnantnI call the dawn and spring innI am the adventnnI bring life from waternIn a cup that must be brokennI whisper to the bursting eggnI'm Aestre's tokennnnScent of dog, scent of mannCloser closer, smell them comingnHot breath, hot deathnCloser closer, hard the runningnnTongues pant, hearts thumpnCloser closer, through the fieldsnTeeth snap, bones cracknCloser closer, at my heelsnnNearer, yet and nearernI can hear the hunter's knifenHe is running for my dinnernI am running for my lifennnWinter wakeneth al my carenNou this leues waxeth bare;nOfte y sike ant mourne sarenWhen hit cometh in my thohtnOf this worldes joie hou hit geth al to nohtnnnMan sprays no weedsnThe scythe cuts, the corn bleedsnLeverets trapped in a harvest bladen'Tis the time of man, the hare saidnnHere's the tractor, here's the ploughnAnd where shall we go nownWe'll lie in forms as still as the deadnIn the open fields, the hare saidnnNo cover but the camouflagenFrom the winter's wild and bitter ragenAll our defence is in our legsnWe run like the wind, the hare saidnnnI've been cursed, I've been despisednAs a witch with darkest powersnI shall goe until a harenI've been hunted trapped and punishednIn these my darkest hoursnWi' sorrow and such mickle carennI've been thrown into the firenBut I do not fear itnI shall goe until a harenIt purifies and resurrectsnAnd I can bear itnWi' sorrow and such mickle carennI've outrun dogs and foxesnAnd I've dodged the tractor wheelsnI shall goe until a harenI've survived your persecutionnAnd your ever-changing fieldsnWi' sorrow and such mickle carennI will run and run forevernWhere the wild fields are minenI shall goe until a harenI'm a symbol of endurancenRunning through the mists of timenWi' sorrow and such mickle care
