On the Rolling Hills of the Famine King

 

There were Seven men in Seven rooms who gave up the Kerish. 

 

First was King Edward on throne, 

who called the islands his home. 

Second was Minister Mathews on stage, 

who carved out the borders on page. 

Third was Treasurer Ravethelen in book, 

who turned all the profit and took, 

Fourth was Lord Catesbyrne in castle, 

who wed eviction to death and hassle. 

Fifth was Abbot Heathroe on pulpit, 

who the sale of the Kerish soul was culprit. 

Sixth was God Almighty in Heaven, 

who blighted the crop for all Seven.

And worst, 

worst of all measure, 

Seventh, the men who came after, 

who claimed it never was.
