The Medici's Daughter by Lady Briana MacCabe Written for the Bard of Altavia contest, A.S. XLIX (2014) and dedicated to Her Excellency of Altavia, Mistress Cecilia Medici
In fair Florence, I was born A child of rumor, a child of scorn From Lady Catherine's arms, I was torn Never to be the Medici's daughter
A childhood of sadness was all I knew And a forced marriage was fated, too So from her cage this bird did flew Away from the Medici's daughter
Around the world, I soared in flight Clothed as a boy, I learned to fight Steady of hand and keen of sight So far from the Medici's daughter
Now stronger and wiser to Firenze I return With a brave, noble husband and lands I have earned Bring a lesson my false family must learn I AM ALTAVIA's DAUGHTER!
