Matthias Mouse
Grown up in the abbey,
The poor orphan mouse,
Mathias he listens,
There is an attack on his house.
Cluny he comes,
His tail like a whip.
His title the Scourge;
A blade at his hip.
"Find the great sword!"
Young Mathias he calls,
"Before that rat Cluny
Shall tear down our walls!"
The search led at last
Into a snakes nest.
Hypnotic eyes dead,
Mathias put him to rest.
"Cluny," young Mathias, he calls;
Great sword raised high,
"I've come to fight you,
And send your soul to the sky!"
A fierce battle raged
Around the abbey's huge bell,
Then Cluny, he stumbled,
Crushed by his death knell.
A young orphan born
Forestalled an attack on his house.
Redwall Abbey's great savior:
Matthias, the warrior mouse.
