Couplet
Wear out patience in the lowest
Dungeons of the sea
Searching through the stranded shipwrecks
For the golden key
Push on to the world's end pay the
Dread guard with a kiss
Cross the rotten bridge that totters
Over the abyss.

Couplet
There stands the deserted castle
Ready to explore;
Enter climb the marble staircase
Open the locked door.
Cross the silent empty ballroom
Doubt and anger past;
Blow the cobwebs from the mirror
See yourself at last.

Couplet
Put your hand behind the wainscot
You have done your part;
Find the penknife there and plunge it
Into your false heart
