When a Girl of 16 Years Old Saved France

It'd been a war that went on for decades
Aptly called the Hundred Years War
Fought between English and French
A young woman came forward
From the village of Domrémy
She bore a divine vision
How to save France
Brought before Charles VII
Not yet crowned the king
Counseled by advisers
To send her away
Not trust in her, send her off
He was moved, by her
Had the sense to say yes
Yes we need her, she was given a role
To end the siege of Orleans and at Patay
French forces came close to ending the war
