Excerpt from Queen Eleanor's Vengeance and Other Poems Quenn Eleanor's Vengenace. Queen Eleanor's is a deadly hate; It dogs her foes down keen as fate. And woe to those who the dark Queen scorn, Better far had they never been born! Than the Poitevin Queen should have on them frown'd, They'd have better been tracked by a black sleuthhound. Be they ever so high who court her frown, Her Aquitain hate will pull them down. Be they ever so fair her love who cross, Let them ware of deadly peril and loss.
