How the blog works

The poems on this blog are mostly written on the basis of my historical reading and are intended to be both educational and entertaining.
Recently I have also begun posting some of my work with Anglo-Saxon charms. This work is somewhat speculative and is conducted as an amateur researcher and keen Pagan historian.

Please feel free to use anything on this site as a resource if you think that it may be relevant to your needs.

Dragon's Quarters

Some fun casting the quarters with dragons

Dragon’s Quarters

Flying cockatrice guard the east,
Air dragon we doth bid thee hail.
Protect our circle with thine power,
From the other world lift thine veil.

Firedrake guard the gate to the south,
Oh great beast fortify the door.
Shield us here with thine fiery breath,
From thy wyrm bed return we implore

Sea serpent seal the western gate,
We doth water dragon call thee.
From thine watery depths arise,
We bid thee our rite oversee.

Crouching basilisk guard the north,
Earth dragon open thine dark eyes.
Serpent king we doth bid thee forth,
From long mists of time now arise.
