Here I sit in the house of your family
On the seat of you father
On the plinth of your forebears
There is news of great beauty; The news of greatness
A beauty within, a beauty without
The future is certain, a life of no doubt
I can think of no other, a spirit of power
I have with me a charge, some tower of strength

A life created, a life with no doubt
Be strong my friend - be bold
Take arms my friend - whenever truth is untold
I know now the feeling, I know now the power
Be not untrue, be not unheard
With the strength of your father
With the heart of your mother
Be heard!

.

Make of that what you may. I make no apology and accept no accolade. It is what it is and I hope that someone may take some comfort of it.

Do not feel that now I belittle it because I return to the comfort of my tankard, such is life and hope that one day I may understand fully the joy that a new life gives.
