Llewellyn Flinthaven - Fighter Poem - Englynion

Llewellyn Flinthaven
fallen in Fall Crown Tourney, A.S. XXX

(Englynion)

Llewellyn Flinthaven lies -
Far away from hearth and home
Nevermore to trod the loam.

Llewellyn Flinthaven lies -
Huntington has cut him down
Sent him to another round.

Llewellyn Flinthaven lies -
Sir Donald took up the slack
And dealt him a mighty whack.

Llewellyn Flinthaven lies -
'Neath the cold and headless land
Sword and shield near to hand.

Llewellyn Flinthaven lies -
Marina's tears, they are keen
Until Crown comes with the Spring.

-- Mistress Philippa Llewelyn Schuyler

...always pleased to spin a yarn
