There once was a saint, most fair and kind, who was known
for his axe, a use he never Could find.
But merely came a man in black,
and burned down his town, to every brick and every thatch.
Forgiveness was taught by this good saint,
but nay’ was there a soul to his words would taste.
On the saint flew, with rage in his heart,
and from his good vows did he decidedly part.
But alas the blood of his vengeance drove him to martyr,
and so died the saint, but his soul make no departure.
Bloody his axe was, and bloody it will always be.
Let the one that knows this weapon wish it nay’ bear on he.
