    For love she did defend
    Dust covered dreams of wedded bliss
    Crushed beneath her feet over one kiss
    Promised to be wed to the King’s son
    But by the King’s knight, her heart was won

    Found was she, kissing the King's knight
    Drawn into his arms, it felt so right
    Was it wrong to love a man so worthy?
    now her knight has met a fate worst than she

    Her actions to the King, she did defend
    She's left to ponder passion’s wretched end
    Now all her hopes and dreams lay vanishing
    Damned because she was so ravishing

    Tossed was she, into a darkened cell
    For evermore her life's a living hell

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
