A Heart So Green (Fair Folk #3)

A Heart So Green (Fair Folk #3)

By Lyra Selene

Part One Fire in the Head

Part One

Fire in the Head

I am the wind on the sea;

I am the wave of the sea;

I am the bull of seven battles;

I am the eagle on the rock;

I am a flash from the sun;

I am the most beautiful of plants;

I am a strong wild boar;

I am a salmon in the water;

I am a lake in the plain;

I am the word of knowledge;

I am the head of the spear in battle;

I am the god that puts fire in the head.

Who spreads light in the gathering on the hills?

Who can tell the ages of the moon?

Who can tell the place where the sun rests?

—“The Song of Amergin,” translated by Lady Gregory
