Take the Cross and Die |

Knights of Christ who praise his

Martyred first in Philip's flames |

That not enough, martyred then again |

The Chivalry of Europe saddles up |

Always asking...
Whom does one serve by virtue of serving the Grail?" |
|

|
|

Did the Templars acquire the
oriental vice and wander in the ubiquitous haze? |
|

Inheritance... thru time and space |
|
| |
|
in days of old
when Knights were bold when maidens were fair, and dragons flew in the
air |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Inheritance... of blood, name and
soul |
|
| |
|
of days
when the Maid of God and most beloved of the Angels could die in fire
and pain |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
and
what man said the words; "may God forgive us, we have just burned a
Saint"? |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Like Royalty in exile |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Exiled... thru time and space |
|
| |
Exiled... to a infinity of
incarnations |
|
| |
Exiled... to making the same stupid
mistakes over and over again |
|

this woeful Knight |

as his own infinity of outrageous
fortune |
|
| |
engulfed him |

How can it be that you know me not? |

Are we not brothers of the League? |

Did we not together make the great
journey to the |

East? |
|
| |
|
|

Did we not fight terrible battles
against men and |
|

monsters, dragons and demons? |
|

Did we not leave vast fields of
smoke and slaughter? |
|
| |
Did we not suffer wounds grievous to
the body, |
|

heart, mind and soul? |
|

|
|

Well know I of Leo and the great
journey to the East. |

And in that last moment, standing on
top of the wall that stands at the edge of the world... he sees it |

It is there, shining in light,
before him, and in that radiance is a cross before which the young
knight kneels, and through his tears he thanks God for the blessing he
has received |

"He which hath no stomach to this
fight, let him depart; his passport shall be made, and crowns for
convoy put into his purse. We would not die in that mans company that
fears his fellowship to die with us. This day is called The Feast of
Crispian. He that outlive this day and comes safe home, will stand
a'tiptoe when this day is nam'd. And rouse him at the name of Crispian. He that shall
live this day, and see old age, will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbors and say;
"Tomorrow is Saint Crispian." Then will he strip his sleeve, and show
his scars, and say; "These wounds I had on Crispian's day." Old men
forget; yet all shall be forgot, but he'll remember, with advantages,
what feats he did that day. Then shall our names, familiar in his
mouth as household words, Harry the king, Bedford and Exeter, Warwick
and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester, be in their flowing cups freshly
remembered. This story shall the good man teach his son". |
