Embalmed in amber every pirate lies,

Embalmed in amber every pirate lies.”

Then this did the noble lady say:

“Bird, do you dream of our home-coming day

When you flew like a courier on before

From the dragon-peak to our palace-door,

And we drove the steed in your singing path—

The ramping dragon of laughter and wrath;

And found our city all aglow,

And knighted this joss that decked it so?
