When men were giants in the land
And custom held one kissed the hand
The dragon was the primal fear
And jousts were fought both far and near.
These were the times when men were brave
And sped their steeds to maidens save
The simple facts were brought to mind
And courage was not hard to find.
But now this is a newer age
And life has found a diff’rent stage
As truth is hid behind each door
The glory waned and is no more !
