The Chronicle of the Black Sword

(Moorcock)Now begins the tale of Elricproud prince of ruinswho bore The Black Sword...
Here is the Chronicle of that albino lord
Who came to be called The White Wolf
Who was called The Kinslayer
Who was called Womanslayer
Who was doomed to be tornbetween Chaos and Law
Who was born to be the pawnof the Cosmic Balance
Who was at once, more his own masterthan any who had lived before
And was at the same time slaveto bloodshed, cruelty, and war
Listen, listen now...
Listen to the tale of howthe White Wolf came by his Weird
Listen to how Elric earned
The Bane of The Black Sword
Elric of Melnibone
The Sailor on the Seas of Fate
Elric
Who battled to bring about the End Of Time
Elric
Who bore the sentient sword Stormbringer
And who killed the only two mortal women he ever loved
This is his sad, his terrible
Aye, and his heroic Saga
The Saga men call
The Chronicle of The Black Sword...
