Like the leaves of the forest when Summer is green,
That host with their banners at sunset were seen:
Like the leaves of the forest when Autumn hath blown,
That host on the morrow lay withered and strown.

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!


from: THE DESTRUCTION OF SENNACHERIB
by: George Gordon (Lord) Byron (1788-1824)

The Destruction of Sennacherib

The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold,
And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold;
And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea,
When the blue wave rolls nightly on deep Galilee.

Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green,
That host with their banners at sunset were seen:
Like the leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown,
That host on the morrow lay withered and strown.

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed:
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!


And there lay the steed with his nostrils all wide,
But through it there rolled not the breath of his pride:
And the foam of his gasping lay white on the turf,
And cold as the spray of the rock-beating surf.

And there lay the rider distorted and pale,
With the dew on his brow and the rust on his mail;
And the tents were all silent, the banners alone,
The lances unlifted, the trumpet unblown.

And the widows of Ashur are loud in their wail,
And the idols are broke in the temple of Baal;
And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword,
Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord!

ok just joking with you lol, I guess it's not really plagiarism with the authors name below. I look forward to the event!! I'll actually be able to make it this time since i'm off work on Mondays! I usually don't get to make the events since I work third shift.


After reading the poem though I think that theres going to be a white dragon in the event, I could be wrong but that's just what comes to my mind after reading it.

We have received a pair of summons that seem mutually exclusive...

Queen Dawn requests that the royal guard the Knights of the Crux Ansata and all others loyal to the crown join her at the throne room of Castle Britannia on February 14th 2011 at 7:30 EST.
Virtuebane demands that all those who serve in his name gather at the altar on the Isle of Pride on February 14th 2011 at 7:30 EST.
