Horns call your name!
The thrum of your blood in your ears beats in answer.
Your rivals should be taught to hear its song!
Bring your sons and daughters and show them the power that is their birth
right! Show those who follow in your prints what it means to be born of your
blood! But when the ardor of the battlefield at last cools in the dusk, remember these are our brothers, by better than blood. Sheathe the heralds of death and take back your cup and plate! Light roaring fires, bring gifts and
tales! Clasp again the hands of neighbors in boasts of what has been and toast to what shall be!
