Love walked alone. The rocks cut her tender feet, And the brambles tore her fair limbs. There came a companion to her, But, alas, he was no help, For his name was Heart's Pain.

There was crimson clash of war. Lands turned black and bare; Women wept; Babes ran, wondering. There came one who understood not these things. He said: "Why is this?" Whereupon a million strove to answer him. There was such intricate clamor of tongues, That still the reason was not.
