Across the sea they heard the callnBlood to spill and gold in handnCharged to flash their deadly steelnAnd defend this fruitful landnStraightaway they waged their warnAnd swiftly came the victorynAnd all of those that were left behindnBeheld the messengers' signnAnd the ships filled the shorelinennBound for famenWith three great ships they camenRiding the wavesnTo the fraynThey soared across the spraynLeading the waynSouls aflamenThey made their masters slavesnDestined to reignnFoes forlornnA sacred myth was bornnWrought a new agennWith gathering strength and growing willnThey turned to bite the hand that feedsnThe worthless host harried and slainnFrom the east to western seasnAltars razed by iron and firenThe pious slaughtered ruthlesslynThe survivors fled to cower in the woodsnFor a life of ignominynOr sadly crossed the sea
