Listen you battleaxe and listen well
There's not enough mace - this tastes like hell
I wanted a horseman's pick not this pike
You're a hellburner- you did this for spite!
A man catcher you're not- nor a mercygiver
I'd rather eat my cuir bouilli than your chopped liver
Powerful but fun words. Enjoyed that.
