NEolithic and Megalithic
\nNot far from Long Compton,made
\nUp of oolitic limestone
\nThe Whispering Knights
\nOr so they claim
\nWere the first
\nA dolmen,
\na burial place of sorts
\nFollowed by the Kings Men
\nAlways in our thoughts
\nThe third it was the Kings Stone
\nA monolith although
\nWas put there in the bronze age
\nA long long time ago<\/p>\n
Rollrights “wheel enclosure groove”
\nA narrow valley near
\nWas it Mother Shipton a witch
\nWho it seemed was clear
\nTo pitch up camp when
\nThe soldiers came
\nAnd of course that was denied
\nTurn back she cackled King and all
\nAnd do not try and hide
\nThats the way they talked in them days
\nStanding on her own
\nAnd now a lot of druids come
\nWith robes and swords and their beating drum
\nThey walk the circle They sup their mead
\nThey light their fire , and yes indeed
\nSee Chipping Norton down below
\nThe southern portal it be there
\nFields of Barley fields of wheat
\nWith the labyrinth beneath their feet<\/p>\n
