Iggwilv's verse

"The Horn of Iggwilv
pierces the heart—
look over your shoulder
before you start.
how many sorrow?
foolish men,
because they didn't
turn back then.
"

"The Horn of Iggwilv
Pierces the heart—
Look over your shoulder
Before you start.
How many sorrowed,
Fooled again,
Because they didn't
Turn back then.
"
