Harvesting The Crop The Chaste Verdict Of Neglige lyrics

The story of kings' and their kingdoms', is herewith about to be told;

Of strife and political govern, and the anguish to be overthrown

One kingdom was gleaming and golden, its castle was built out of strain;

It was ruled by a merciful monarch, who's justice was widely acclaimed

Elected to power by voting, by his fellowmen that he had been;

A prospering nation of justice, where each owned as much as their kin

The other domain was of silver, its regent was righteous and grand;

He governed his kingdom by justice; and rendered his ruling by hand

The monarch had come into power; by seizing his govern by force;

He considered himself to be able, and by cunning he managed his course



Each kingdom prevailed independent, their riches continued to grow;

But then came a sudden disaster, of drought that obstructed the growth

Starvation was sudden and heartless, for the king in the golden domain;

He had labored his folk for the kingdom, convoking their goods and their
grains

But the people he reigned were neglected, and the virtue of personal gain;

And soon he was stranded with nothing, but the cast of a social charade

The kingdom of silver and marble, was likewise affected by drought;

But merely in petty proportions, as govern was slightly unlike.

The people had land that they planted, to nourish themselves and their king;

Profusion was not for the kingdom, but earnings for personal strain



The people of silver had plenty, preserved since the time of excess;

Diverse to the folk who had nothing, who's earnings had mothered distress

He pleaded, he begged and he bellowed; that his neighbors should part with
their gain;

And contribute avail for his people, the king of the golden domain

The people considered his motives, but seemly rejected his plea;

They replied that the rate of survival, was an issue for nature to deem

The king was provoked by this answer, and shortly resolved to wage war;

In attempt to ensure his persistence, and the life of his people of course

But the force he unearthed was brutal, and too meager he was his cause;

Let nature decide who is able, or be reckoned for judgement by force
