                                                 The king laid down his ring
                                        As he lay in his bed.
                                        In peace lay there the king,
                                        Because the king was dead.

                                        In splendor did he lie;
                                        His realm lay to the west,
                                        But as he chanced to die,
                                        The king was laid to rest.
