As in his father's palace, he

In the wild woods will dauntless be.

Whene'er he lets his arrows fly

His stricken foemen fall and die:

And is that prince of peerless worth

Too weak to keep and sway the earth?

His sweet pure soul, his beauty's charm,

His hero heart, his warlike arm,

Will soon redeem his rightful reign

When from the woods he comes again.
