THE CUIRASSIER'S GRAVE
Raven plume on riven helm,
Rider in an unknown realm;
Rider in an unknown realm;
Thou hast ta'en the final journey,
Thou hast made the final tourney,
Thou hast made the final tourney,
Shivered thy lance, broken thy sword,
Ended allegiance to thy lord.
Ended allegiance to thy lord.
So fares each knight encountereth
The pale horse and his rider Death!
The pale horse and his rider Death!
