Fortress On High

https://m.soundcloud.com/user-921599710/fortress-on-high Fortress on high, stands fortified Tower of the valley and countryside Bow and arrow, sovereign sword Comfort chamber, homely lord Magnificent halls of grand prestige Throughout the ages castles besieged Guard protection, tall high tower Stronghold defence of such great power Order of the king, show loyalty Rebellion against the royalty Blacksmiths, merchants, products sold Working life for adult role Wealthy lords and active knights Poor pheasants of lesser rights Assembling of the scaffolding Labours loading, strong building Distant castle stands remote A gatehouse, keep, chapel, moat Conquered lands, mass invasion Rebuilt towns of restoration Written by Geraldine Taylor ©
