Oath
Down hallways dark
Of echoing stone
Pasting unseen doors
All closed on this night
Eyes are covered
Unneeded now
Trusting those
Who lead the way
Echoes felt
Tell of the path
Where we are
And where we’re bound
Long hours worked for now
Weeks of studies now done
Tested on this night
To prove our worth
Or to fail on this day
Now enter in a great hall
Now see by candlelight
Sword now offered
We must draw
An oath we must swear
