''by Madrigal ap Unafel Colwythh'' 
''Shadow Poet of the Shimmering Veil '' 

To touch the fatal face 
That hovers past the Pale, 
Observe the lovely grace 
Of a stillborn's mother's wail. 

To hear the ancient note 
That sings you to your rest, 
Grab your lover by the throat 
And give your strength a test. 

To taste the bitter fruit 
Of years lived unfulfilled, 
Pull up your rotten root 
And pray you will be tilled. 

To see the spark that dies 
When life at long last ebbs, 
Listen for the orphan's cries 
While watching Widows in their webs. 

To smell the subtle scent 
Of death long overdue, 
Seek out the faithful penitent 
And with cold steel be true. 

And cast aside the glove 
That binds your soul to thee, 
And let the crimson stains of love 
Set all your senses free.
