3.It's been 56 years.
4.That the giant of Africa started to burn.
5.Emulating The fierce sun.
_
6.For fire the giant had called play.
7.Destiny of the giant rests in burning hands.
_
8.Little had the giant known.
9.About the dragon fire.
Before it made heat its aura.
10.And 'burning! burning! ', the giant shall cry.
