We served our master for many years

Before he was named Emperor of Rome

Though times were hard, he was not cruel

And we called his home our home

I worked for him as a fire tender

Until there came a war

He then called together an army

To keep the enemy from our shore

First in line came his generals

a cunning and sly gang

They all vowed to serve him truly

And his praises they all sang

Following close was his cavalry

Overflowing with arrogance

They cared only for their steeds

And never even gave us a glance

The vats legions were next to pass

With helmets made of steel

They were so many in number

That it made our senses reel

Supply wagons followed by hundreds

Stuffed with meat and grain

With weapons and equipment

More than enough, it was plain

Finally cam perfumed carriages

While we returned to our chores

They called themselves the Silken Women

The vain and pompous whores

We wre then quick to close our gates

Before there came in time

The thieves, spies, and cowards

That we called human slime

The troops all soon departed

All of them history bound

Though numbers would soon fall in battle

A few their glory found
