Excerpt from The First Wardens, Poems The King's Fool A Fool it was, and took his Soul Within his hollowed hands, He took his Soul and smoothed it calm, And loosed its strained bands. "O Soul, " he cried, "you bear the stain Of chain-gyves interwove! Who did this thing?" The Soul replied: "It was the friend I love." "O Soul, you have a flaming brand Burned on your nakedness! Who did this thing?" The Soul replied: "That was a pure caress." "O Soul, a fissure shows your heart Like wound of bloody sword! Who did this thing?" The Soul replied: "That was a friendly word."
