Book Three: Thalia
Ethiopia was hit with a ring
They were attacked by Cambyses the king
Cambyses was an extremely mad man
Ew. Yuck. Gag. How I despise those bed pans
Good fortune was received by Polycrates
Oh my! What has my Pepper gone and ate?
Periander had an obstinate son
Mu Wa Ha! My work has only begun!
Two of the Magi revolt in Persia
Good spices are loved in Arabia
The dear Magi were removed by seven
That random kid can count to eleven
Then Darius the first came to power
You can see there were twenty satrapies
And India collected gold strangely
And then five gates caused a flooded valley
Then Oroetes schemed against Polycrates
Pepper jumped into another flame, great
A wise physician was Democedes
Oh I hope I don't get a strange disease
Samos's governor was Syloson
Then Zopryus defeated Babylon
Oh, my light is no longer very bright
I'll be continuing tomorrow night
