Prayer to Death

Hooded master,

Scythe in hand,

Take me now

Into your land.

I lay myself

Down at your feet,

My time is gone,

My bones are weak.

Hooded master,

Scythe held high,

Take me with you,

Pray I die.

Across the river,

I must sail,

Past other souls,

So lost and pale.

Hooded lord,

I beg of you,

I know not what,

But death, is true.

I've tuppence 

For the ferryman,

So may my life

End by your hand.
