Heads: the diademed Silver Lady,

Mother, looks to the left.

Tails: tails flying, Sire,

the Stallion of Three Tails

gallops to the right.

 

Such was the coinage

of the Dobunni, Keltic

People of Two Bands,

ancestral to the Hwicce,

Anglo-Saxon Tribe

of Witches.

 

In those days, my heart,

we had our own currency:

witch-money, ours to us.
