Sonnets for Drachenwald 20th Year

Recently, Countess Judith of Northumbria asked me to write a set of sonnets for the Masque she was planning for the Drachenwald 20th Year celebration. Each poem was to introduce a particular dance performance, and I was given a particular subject for each from Classical mythology and history. I had to do at least a little research for each one, which was quite educational. They were written to be performed in the following order:

  1. Gifts of the Gods
  2. Penthesilea
  3. The Loves of Aeneas
  4. The Sabine Women
  5. Rome and Carthage
