And horrid words; of hot-headed sailors
Lust left the vikings, cold
Controlling; made the navy's food mould
Arrogance left the army, wounded
Stealing left the man; looted
It was guilt that took Henry the eight
Jealousy took those; with violent faith
Manipulation removed the king from power
But it was love; the freed the princess from her tower
