He Came With Death Held In His Paw Which No Rat Born Could Face Oh Woe To Those Who Break The Law Of Sunflash And His Mace!

But The Warriors True, The Brave Of Heart Who Valiently Upheld The Right They Are Raised On High To The Velvet Sky Bringing Light To The Darkness Of Night

The Young Mouse's Eyes Snapped Open, Clear And Bright. He Swung The Ancient Sword High And Struck At The Giant Adder. He Struck For Redwall! He Struck Against Evil! He Struck For Martin! He Struck For Log-a-log And His Shrews! He Struck For Dead Guosim! He Struck As Methuselah Would Have Wanted Him To! He Struck Against Cluny The Scourge And Tyranny! He Struck Out Against Captain Snow's Ridicule! He Struck For The World Of Light And Freedom! He Struck Until His Paws Ached And The Sword Fell From Them!
