Well, I should have remembered to save a copy. Cailin's box also turned out to be full at the time, so I don't have it.
It went something like this:
Why do the blameless fear the starless night?
'Tis under shield of dark when curséd deeds
Are done. There are no prying eyes to see
The guilty wolves attack, and nighttime shields
Their horrid plots. And so tonight 'tis doomed
That fair Kitanna, hapless maid, shall fall.
In darkness she shal dwell forever more
And to the shadows sing her tale of woe.
That's not quite it, but it was similar. Anyway, it's a line shorter, which considering the quality of my poetry is probably a good thing.
