      Great Times - Magnus King

      (2) REVENGE IS NO SEASON IN HELL

      Revenge is no season in hell

      For there’s no unbeliever there

         They all sing and praise

         They do shout and hail

         The King of Glory

      The gates never close to open

      The sealed doors, not next to broken

         The streets, ever dark

         Windows ever mark

         The men of folly

      It’s never the Son of their vows

      Nesting beneath the Hades South

         Where no rain nor cool

         Neither fist nor duel

         O LORD Almighty!

      AUTHOURS’S NOTES: aabbc, ddeec, ffggc

      In each stanza, the first two lines has the same syllable count. Likewise the last three lines in each stanza. More like 8-8-5-5-5, 8-8-5-5-5, 8-8-5-5-5

      Truly, there’s no unbeliever in hell

      Luke 16:19-31

      It’s not the Son of their vows nesting beneath Hades south: it’s not their wish to be in hell.

      No rain nor cool, no fist nor duel: there’s no rage nor quarrels of some kind nor fighting in hell.

      All praise God and further intercede on behalf of those who are not yet dead to perhaps see if that might save they themselves.

      So, who ever said Revenge is a season in hell?

      (3) A KNIGHT MEETS THE QUEEN OF ASIA

      Knight: Hello! My Lady

      Queen: Hi! Sir King

      Knight: Now, permit this Knight to ask one thing of you.

               Permit this Knight to ask a question of fate

      Queen: OK

      Knight: No my Lady. You should say Granted

               Or proceed with courage and fill my ears with delight

      Queen: Very well Sir King….Granted.

      Knight: Has my Lady a king?

               Or has another noble man fixed the sun on her fourth
