Title 4/ Dauntless
Quote:
"Put on the dauntless spirit of resolution." William Shakespeare
My daring and intrepid knight so strong,
this message is an urgent plea to you.
For your sweet kiss and fond embrace I long.
I have been captured. Now what can I do?
You promised me your hand in marriage, and
you're resolute; your promises you keep.
I’m in the tower of the castle grand,
held here by the king’s son. I weep and weep,
for knowing you are far away, yet I
have faith that you will come and rescue me.
My messenger will give me your reply.
I pray each day your face once more I’ll see.
Oh, dauntless knight, make haste because my fate
is in your hands. For your return I wait.
