“While coyness, shyness and flirtation are good for getting a man, sometimes after all that, you still have to hit him with a stick and drag him home.”<\/p>\n

Once there was a northern lass
\nwith hair as red as fire
\nHer heart set on a fencing man
\nwho filled her with desire.
\nShe vowed that she would have him
\nand someday be his bride –
\nEven if the fencing lad
\nrather would have died….<\/p>\n

So go the women of the Northern Army
\nmarching into love!
\nNo cupid’s bows – their siege engines
\nrain passion from above.
\nYou’d best be heavy shielded
\nand in sturdy armor bright
\nif a woman of the Northern Army
\nhas eyes for you tonight!<\/strong><\/p>\n

This lady was in love with him –
\nshe made up her mind.
\nShe might just have to jump on him,
\nor hit him from behind!
\nAfter all her plotting,
\nthat northern lassie fair,
\nthought he might best be taken
\nwhile sleeping in his chair.<\/p>\n

*chorus*<\/strong><\/p>\n

She stelthily attacked him
\nwith motions strong and bold
\nbut he slept with his schlauger on –
\ntwas quite a fight all told –
\nthough the maid did surprise him
\nhe was ready with his steel;
\nthey fought until exhausted
\nand then had their first meal…<\/p>\n

*chorus*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now the two of them quite merrily
\nand regularly fight,
\nthey argue in the morning
\nand brawl all through the night.
\nBlessed are they with true love
\nso it is seen and said…
\nthough when her eyes alight with fire –
\nhis often fill with dread!<\/p>\n

*chorus*<\/strong><\/p>\n
