Testo Nigel's Poem

I was there in olden times
When flaxen-haired maidens
Roamed the countryside
And wild boars
Groveled at the feet of kings
When great stone palaces loomed over the land
And every river ran to the sea
I was there when dragons flew
From cloud to cloud
And eunuchs danced in the village halls
When a man's bare foot was his word
And a simple song, his bond
