When
Una came of age,
Suitors
came on her life’s stage,
Among
them a dreaded prince.
That
dreaded prince
(Whom
Felix fenced)
Was
the Prince Aethelbald.
That
lovelorn prince
She
had hated since
The
day that she had met him.
Princess
Una said
“I
refuse to wed
That
odd Prince Aethelbald.”
Her
loathing grew
After
quite a few
Restless,
hot nights.
During
those nights,
Una’s
ring became tight
And
singed her finger.
Prince
Aethelbald tried
To
help her fried
And
aching dainty hands.
But
Una did not relent
To
this poor kind gent
And
instead walked away.
She
soon fell in a trance
Of
sighing romance
Swooning
for the king’s jester.
The
jester, she found out
Though
people thought him a lout
Was
Prince Lionheart in disguise.
She
gave him her ring
(And
inside, it made him sing!)
And
joyfully, he departed.
But
he soon betrayed
Una,
that fair maid
And
gave her ring away.
Una
finally became
No
longer quite so tame
When
she became a dragon.
But
lo and behold,
That
prince so bold
Rescued
Princess Una.
By
the prince’s arts,
He
changed her heart
Formed
it like his own.
Una
relented,
Formally
repented
And
gave up her hardness of heart.
So
Una finally married
And
then she got carried
To
Aethelbald’s kingdom.
And
so it ends
All
become friends
And
live Happily Ever After.
