In this story, in rhyme, I narrate as best as I can

Of a creature and a place unknown to any man.

Motives of people who are dear to your heart,

And of an odd adventure that almost came apart

Tragically; but let me not spoil the little surprise

That awaits your expedition into my enterprise.

When you have read this you'll see what I meant

I hope your time with this strange tale is well spent.
