“And when the gyre slowly turn
\nAnd cut into the bone
\nThe fire lit, the soul will burn
\n Til nought be left but stone<\/p>\nThe ageless one can sleep no more
\nThe Wraith has circled thrice
\nThat He may rise who came before
\n To weave His ring of ice<\/p>\n
What is up shall then be down
\nWhat is far be near
\nFor He shall come to wear the crown
\n And He shall rule by fear<\/p>\n
And nought but they who know the book
\nCan hope to break His spell
\nYet well we know a single look
\n Can burn the Devil well<\/p>\n
Sing the ancient words aloud
\nWrite them on the air
\nTurn His mantle to a shroud
\n His glory to despair<\/p>\n
Oh ageless one I call ye now
\nI call thee from thy sleep
\nA single strike upon His brow
\n And let the blade go deep<\/p>\n
Oh let the gyre slowly turn
\nAnd cut into the bone
\nA fire lit, a soul to burn
\n Til nought be left but stone”<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
