EAnF#d the bold man carrying cross Had told all one of Asa bay EThF#e God of all man woman child had come To thEem all sDave EAnF#d to thank Lord of Heaven One should build to God a house EAnF#d to save one's soul from Hell E D (...E D) One should be baptised and say vows
EA man of pC#ride with the Hammer told new God To buHild his house on own And spokAe loud of the Gods of their fathers GisNot toEo long timeD gone The rumours said the man with a beard like fire And the Hammer in chain By men in armour silenced was and by Their swords was slain

EStF#ill he heard from somewhere in the woods E (hold) Old crow of wisdom say F# ...people of Asa land, it's only just begun...
