Damsels, Knights And Dragons

Damsels and Knights take on the dragon.
They fill up their mugs from the flagons.
But who can defeat great Krakow there?
Who can survive in a dragon's lair?

A flame so hot that the shields melt.
His hide is tough like a leather belt.
They gird up their loins and fight.
Each knowing it will be a long night.

Krakow teasingly invites them in.
He asks, "Do we begin, again?"
"Would you steal my treasure?"
"You want to stop and measure?"

"Trying to take what is mine?"
"True. Great gold can be thine."
"But ye willing to pay the price?"
"My flames are not always nice."

"Enter my cave if you would dare."
"But don't be naive and just stare."
"So drink well from your flagons."
"Because here there be dragons."
