He’s some kind of vagrant.

A tramp.

Not from here

Couldn’t be, or he’d never dare

To tread sacred earth!

Sacrilege! To see someone here.

To hear a voice!

You’ve gone too far and trespassed

On a sacred grove where water blends

With liquid honey and flows from lustral bowls.

Beware, stranger, go no further—

Stop now and back away.

Do you hear?

Decrepit beggar.

If you’ve something to say, say it

But not on sacred land.

Speak to us from a place where words are allowed.

Keep silent until

You have left forbidden ground.
