Wold - An Habitation Of Dragons And A Court For Owls lyrics

There shall the great owl make her nest And lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch And the dust thereof into brimstone And the land thereof shall become burning pitch It shall not be quenched night nor day The smoke thereof shall go up forever: From generation to generation it shall lie waste None shall pa** through it forever and ever But the cormorant and bittern shall possess it The owl also and the raven shall dwell in it And he shall stretch out upon it the lines of confusion And the stones of emptiness They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom But none shall be there And all her princes shall be nothing And thorns shall come up in her palaces Nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof And it shall be An habitation of dragons, and a court for owls The wild beasts of the desert Shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island And the satyr shall cry to his fellows The screech owl also shall rst there And find for herself a place of rest There shall the great owl make her nest And lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow
