A Crimson Dawn Or An Overture To The Raven-Feathered Queen
I: (The harbinger Morrigan)
Blear with dew came the morrow
And winds rustled aloud.
Down by the rill where purled the flow
The Washer1 washed the shrouds
And Nemain2 sang of woe and sorrow.
""O black-feathered Morrigan""
II: (O'er bleak winds of death)

""Thrilled by rankling fury, as I hearkened direful voices,
The red blaze of death aroused my vengeful moods.""
""The glorious grandeur of battle, at this blood-tinged dawn,
Made boil my ebon ichor, glinstering as steel whirled.""
