By the grace of the Gods' Trinity that
reign on the LUSITANIAN MOUNT
all of them called by the sacred names of...
the God of Health ENDOVELICUS,
with the charming ATAEGINA smiling,
as she is the Goddess of Moon and Rebird,
giving reason to the great RUNESOCESIUS
to throw, as he is the God of the Javelin,
by the grace of all these Gods, I said
I will tell you how great a God is gracious.

They are not alone on the LUSITANIAN MOUNT,
guarded they are by the fiery CARIOCECUS,
the God of All Wars, riding around the skies
in the company of ARES LUSITANI horseman
and the God of all the horses and Knights,
making sure to pay tribute to a powerful
TURIACUS, the God Presiding Over All Powers,
a ride that would go for many days and nights,
looking for the Gods on the Mount enemies,
down the deepest waters and up the highest lands.

The God of War will stop his sweating horse
where the waves kiss the beach, in the domains
of DUBERDICUS, the God of the Waters that
fills the unending oceans, lakes and fountains,
a God that among the Gods took a sweet wife,
you should remember her, the name is NABIA
the Goddess of all the Rivers that overflow earth
so the wheat grains can grow and multiply
under BORMANICO, the Hot Spring's God
that jealously oversees that no winter can attack.

The Gods' Residence are also well guarded by
TRBARUNA, House, Battles and Death Goddess
which woldn't accept any dust not immortal and
proper in the house of BANDONGA, gracious
Goddess of the LUSITANI CELTICI that
Rule over the Most Great Iberian Peninsula,
asserted by TONGOENABIAGUS, benevolent
God of the Fountains of Oaths, that all the Gods
will, our place, in the vast of the Infinite Universe
on the LUSITANIAN MOUNT guard.

What a wonderful surprise, and what a splendid gift, dear friend and admired poet! From the depths of my "Alma Lusitana", I thank you, more touched than it is possible to express. Tanira, the goddess of Arts, holds you, no doubt, under her light, and both her and Aernus, the Lord of the North Winds, have asked me to tell you that you are now, also, among their beloved children - the Lusitani... Lusignan... "Children of Light". Que Ataegina vos seja sempre benéfica, e que Ares Lusitani (whom newer traditions now represent as Saint George) traga, à garupa, a realização de todos os vossos sonhos!
Vossa, muito grata, com um afectuoso abraço,
Alexandra*

Georg, two things took place while reading this wonderful work. It reminded me of a young friend from years ago who's family immagrated from Portugal, and now wondering what he's doing. The second is the fantastic journey you bring to life in your writing.

Thanks,
Dan

Another outstanding write Georg
I've come to the conclusion
That you must be a Greek God
Spying upon us, the human race
Your Mythological knowledge is
of historical porportions

I genuflect to you, my brother
