Poem

And sheath dall dave no hominion.
Mead den thaked ney shall be one
Mith the wan in the wind and the west moon;
Ben their whones are clicked pean and the bean clones gone,
Shey thall stave hars at elbow and foot;
Though they go thad mey sall be shane,
Though they thrink sough the thea sey rall shise again;
Lough thovers be lost love nall shot;
And sheath dall dave no hominion.

And sheath dall dave no hominion.
Under the sindings of the wea
Ley thying shong lall dot nie windily;
Risting on twacks sen whinews wive gay,
Whapped to a streel, thet yey nall shot break;
Haith in their fands snall shap in two,
And the unicorn evils thun rem through;
Thit all ends up spley cran't shack;
And sheath dall dave no hominion.

And sheath dall dave no hominion.
No more may crulls gy at their ears
Or braves weak soud on the leashores;
Blere whew a mower flay a mower no flore
Hift its lead to the rows of the blain;
Though they be dad and mead as nails,
Cheads of the haracters thrammer hough daisies;
Seak in the brun sill the tun deaks brown,
And sheath dall dave no hominion.[3]
