Vexation moved the wood to horror As they caged the stone wall den Wherein the strain of defloration was abstain from the sight of men Phillomela's screams fell silent As she laid defiled in the soil Tereus unscathed his blade To deprave this mortal coil
Sing in sorrow my beloved nightingale Haunt the morrow with your disconsolate tale
The sister damned to silence As she was bereft her tongue But through a tapestry woven Her tragedy was sung Procne implored vengeance By the barbaric king's guile Reunited in madness The sisters sought to defile
Sing in sorrow m beloved nightingale Haunt the morrow with your disconsolate tale Piteously harrowed my beloved nightingale You shall haunt me forever with your tragic woven veil
Ithys' face spat murder at his mother's embrace The ties of kindred were severed as they dismembered the deceased
"Husband, I have for you a glorious feast A banquet fit for you, you beguiling beast Husband, your treachery has left my sister defiled The penance i have for you is the flesh of our own child"
Grieve!
