All right, so here it comes.
"'Majesty!'- I'd greet
you if we should meet
though long before me
your realm seemed to be."
"Majesty, thou bold!
What thou hadst was gold
but tell me, what's there
the two of us share?" "Your men bring to fight
their spears in the night
If just mine could, too,
pierce hearts like yours do!"
"Majesty! My throne
in cold, dark, and stone
but of thine who knows?
And who were thy foes?" "Majesty, it's late:
Black pit is your fate
as it has been said
But I am long dead."
Enjoy riddling
