Here is A Rhyme About 1066 And All That



A THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
THE BAYEUX TAPESTRY THEY DID SEW,
AND IN IT THEY DID SHEW,
HOW THE BATTLE FOR ENGLAND DID GO

THERE WAS A LOT OF BLOOD,
AND MANY DID DIE,
AND THE ENGLISH KING HAROLD,
GOT AN ARROW IN THE EYE,
AND EVERY NIGHT,
IN THE STARRY SKY,
A FIERY COMET FLEW BY

THE BATTLE OF HASTINGS,
WILLIAM OF NORMANDY WON,
AND WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR,
THE NORMAN King DID BECOME

BUT TO THE ENGLISH TODAY,
IT IS AS IF IN SOME WAY,
IN THE CONQUEST OF THIS LAND,
THAT WILLIAM ENDED UP,
NOT AS A FOREIGN INVADER,
BUT AS AN ENGLISH KING,
AND AN ENGLISH MAN
