On The Day Of The Dead
Written by Susan Cooper writer of The Dark Is Rising Sequence

On the day of the dead, when the year too dies,
...

Where there is sword fighting there is danger.
Where there is sword fighting there is courage.
Where there is sword fighting there is adventure.
Where there is sword fighting there is cabbage.

Who has once
Been from home

...

Nature destroys Nature in storms and earthquakes
Man destroys man on the battlefield
And man destroys Nature because of the blood that they shed
Sinks, to the center of the Earth
