fallen in Spring Crown Tourney, A.S. XLII

Rise my lord, and see
Unending victory
Dry your lady’s tears
Obliterate her fears
Lift your standard high
Proudly toward the sky
Heralds cry your deeds

Face your willing foe
Eyes dart to and fro
Kneeling now you yield
Torn upon the field
Every man will say
Reign you will, one day

— Mistress Finella Harper
...is a late 13th C. Irish woman who has found herself in Spain, mourning the passing of Alfonso X.
