The Legend of Lilith

He sent his heralds to inquire of its lady
But Lilith fed his heralds to her lions
The great prince sent an army
But the marilitu's destroyed his army

Finally the great prince went
When he saw the beautiful orchards
When he saw the six-armed marilitus
The great prince knew the lady was Lilith
In fear he disguised himself as a woman

The great prince went to Lilith's temple
His disguise fooled the people
But the lions knew his scent
The two lions warned Lilith
So Lilith prepared a trap

Lilith summoned thirty-six young men
She filled a hall with thirty-six silver platters
She ordered thirty-six beasts slaughtered
At last she was ready
She invited the people to the feast

People came from all over the land
The great prince came too
The great prince arrived in disguise
But Lilith knew him eagerly
She welcomed him as an honoured guest

The great prince accepted her hospitality
He sat before all the people
The thirty-six young men were brought forth
"Please choose a man," Lilith commanded
Not wanting to be rude the great prince chose one

Lilith bade the great prince to sit beside the young man
The silver platters were brought forth
The people feasted on the meat of thirty-six beasts
Great gifts were brough forth
Lilith gave the gifts to the great prince

Confused the great prince accepted
Then the feast was finally over
Curious, the great prince questioned Lilith
"Do you always give such grand gifts to strangers?"
"Only when someone is married," Lilith answered

Realizing what had happened the great prince became angry
He ripped off his disguise
He drew his sword and his dagger
"Why have you made me marry this man?" he demanded
"Because you can never marry me," Lilith answered

Enraged the great prince attacked Lilith
The two fought endlessly for Lilith was very strong
Whenever the prince would get too bold
Lilith would change into a bird
The great prince fell to the ground and wept in despair

The great prince professed his love
He promised that he would never quit
He prepared to cut his own throat
Finally Lilith grew tired of this game
She felt pity for the great prince

"I will grant you one kiss," Lilith declared
Desperate the great prince accepted
The moment the great prince's kiss had been dealt
His body flooded with life and then death
So great was the pleasure of one kiss that he died

Lilith wept for the great prince
But the great prince remained dead
Saddened Lilith knew she could never love
No mortal man could taste her kiss and live
Her tears brought life, but her kiss brought death
