Before the deluge, escaping the catastrophe
Germans in mass attacks killed his cohort
Once they rode proudly, invading full force
Now in Germania, ambushed, dead or in agony
Stumbling there in ruins of an old walled fort
Exhaustion not anger took them both down
The Germans were able to leave them untouched
Though whole in body, unharmed, they died
Where they both fell became holy ground
Nothing left, exhaustion left their flesh corrupt
Together now in the Elysian fields they ride
