The Salute of the Scribes

The Salute of the Scribes
As translated from ancient sources
by Baroness Scylla vom und zu Karybdis DBE*

Dedicated to George Soros


Ceaselessly through the ages do we labor
Setting quill after quill remorselessly to paper
Thoughts, emotions, the weight of the World upon us -

Morituri te poetamus

...

*This most sacrosanct of appellatives, "Daughter-Regnal of the British Empire", is relatively unknown at the present time to the common person. Begun secretively during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, a mere 32 women of august station have been so honored to the present day, Baroness Scylla being the most recent investitee. - Enid
