Chuckle they not to hear men say:

“The King is dead: Long live the King?”

The fame he wooed my name shall wed,

A world shall bend beneath my sway,

For every crimson drop he shed

Full flood will I, from out this day

When first in battle-stained array

I heard my blooded sea-dogs sing,

Standing above him where he lay:

“The King is dead: Long live the King!”
