Prologue

Two families both alike in life,
Where ancient grudge brings about strife,
In Hogwarts England where our play is set,
Where civil wizards make life a bet,

From the views of these two foes,
Brings about piteous overthrows,
A pair of lovers hang up their wands,
When they die, realization dawns,

The fearful journey of this improbable love,
Sends their sould to unite above,
The continuance of their parent's loathe,
Brings the two hour traffice of the present show,

For those who are patient to have the story told,
We shall come to miss those who lie cold.
