description= _ "There once was an elf by the name of Beirand, who set out on a journey to a distant land.
|
||||
Thirteen days he rode, no rest did he take, ‘til a nymph’s abode he entered, ‘side a lake.
|
||||
“Lo, Narya!” Came a cry of glee, “Spy thee yonder apple tree?”
|
||||
The response, a neigh, she jumped with delight, then set off in a canter spright.
|
||||
“Look there, Narya!” Came a cry of glee, “Do thee spy that yonder apple tree?”
|
||||
The response, a neigh, she jumped with delight, then off she skipped in a canter spright.
|
||||
Not a moment passed ‘ere a gusting blast, blew all around, an airy voice cast:
|
||||
“Hold there, thee elf, this grove is mine — no fruit shall I yield you, nor your equine.”
|
||||
Came the reply, “Please grant us respite. Long have we traveled; surely see thee our plight!”
|
||||
“That, I consider, is your case, but to earn my favor, let’s have a race.”
|
||||
To this, the rider did consent, and toward the tree, off they went.
|
||||
Next came the reply, “Please grant us respite. Long have we travel’d; surely see thee our plight!”
|
||||
“Fatigue, I perceive, that is your case, but to earn my grace, let’s have a race.”
|
||||
To this, the rider did consent, and toward the tree, then off they went.
|
||||
A howl, a rush, a flying gale, the wind left the rider back on its tail.
|
||||
But in a flashing streak, a gallop sleek, rider and horse past the wind did squeak.
|
||||
In augmented time, back and forth they sped, ‘til at last, fleet elf landed ahead.
|
||||
“Well done,” spake the sprite, as she blew in, “my grace I shall grant thee and all of your kin.”
|
||||
Beirand and Narya thus took their leave, carrying forevermore, the nymph’s reprieve.
|
||||
But in a flashing streak, a gallop sleek, horse and rider past the wind did barely squeak.
|
||||
In augmented time, back and forth they sped, ‘til at last, fleet elf arrived ahead.
|
||||
“Well done,” spake the spirit, as she blew in, “my grace I shall grant thee and all of your kin.”
|
||||
Beirand and Narya thus took their leave, bearing evermore, the nymph’s reprieve.
|
||||
|
||||
The truth of this tale, one can only surmise, but beyond doubt, Outriders the fastest do comprise."
