His span of years no mortal knows,
Of two and ten months each composed;
Mad and fearless, wise and meek;
Seven gods do make a week.

 From Mount Olympus, from Asgard's Hall
A challenge comes: answer the call.
Seek you, then, each mystic leaf;
The hapless soon will come to grief.

If a-questing you would go--
In lea and forest, to and fro;
With wit and valor arm thyself,
Knowledge finds the greatest wealth.

But even gods may utter lies,
To lead astray all but the wise;
Sometimes victory has a price:
Be prepared to sacrifice.

Shun false counsel, trust your heart,
And from your wisdom never part;
They who keep these words in mind
The abbey's door will soonest find.
