from my book The Virgin Chronicles and Song Book by Louis Marshall Gould available on Bokus m fl


The Prince of Nine

The Prince of Nine
said to the Lady of Eight
"I thought that you would
be on time but I see that
you are quite late".
Arrogant building masters sift through
the falling plaster as
the the Duke of Seven calmly
contemplates the sky blue heavens.
Meanwhile the Lord of Six is charged
with a a daring wager.
Thousands gather in the
Castle's square and streets
to see if he can come up
with a winning way and satisfy
the bet collectors eagerly
waiting for their pay.
The odds are set.
The dice are thrown,
the damsels moan
the horses rear, the end to our tale is
closing near.
The Prince of Nine says
to his companion the Lady of Eight
"Hurry, let's leave this place
through the garden gate
and it's been a merry twist to leave the
the dice unto our fate.
So come, let us repair to our fine home
and upon soft cushions recline and count
our lucky share of the plate
my fine and fortunate Lady of Eight".
