The Legendary Ten Seconds - Mer De Mort

The Privy Seal and the Royal Shield

Roger led men from his estate
Defeat at Bannockburn was their fate
Protecting the flight of their King
Of Roger's honour I will now sing

I will now sing
I will now sing
Of Mortimer honour I will now sing

The privy seal and the royal shield
Lost to Scotland on the battlefield
Left behind by the English King
Of Roger's honour I will now sing

I will now sing
I will now sing
Of Mortimer honour I will now sing

Rather than a ransom given a task
Was it demanded or did someone ask
To return the seal and the royal shield
And the bodies of two nobles who had been killed

Roger returning with the shield
Two dead nobles who had been killed
And the privy seal lost by the King
Of Roger's honour I will now sing

I will now sing
I will now sing
Of Mortimer honour I will now sing
I will now sing
I will now sing
Of Mortimer honour I will now sing
