[hometext] => The full title wouldn't fit: The Burning of Most of Eldore Except for the Rich Parts Which are Surrounded by Very Large and Pretty Stone Walls
[bodytext] => Dragons dragons all around I see people all abound I see people all a-soaring Fires raging Dragons roaring Houses crumble at the sight People scream with all their might Sheep are eaten Straw is burnt People whining that they’re hurt Great destruction everywhere Noble people laugh and stare Peasants dying Horses Flee Glad the dragons don’t see me No no children go away In this nice spot I will stay All surrounded by fine brick Find a savior I’m not it Oh my Jesus they’ve seen me! Dragons flap against the breeze Can’t escape Brick traps in How ironic it’s an oven The original account of the burning of Eldore stops abruptly at this point, severe burn marks were found on the latter half of the parchment. The peasant Jason Black has not been seen since.
