--The Battle--

Five days out on an infinite sea, they prayed for calm on an ocean free,
But the surface of the water ws indicating some disturbance.

The raft was hurled by an unseen source, two hundred feet, with Frightening force
And a dark mass rising showed to be a giant porpoise 

Rising out of the angry sea, towered the creatures' enemy, 
And so the two sea monsters closed for battle

CHOIR
Crocodile teeth, lizard's head, bloodshot eye, stained ocean red 
Moving close to their raft's side, the two men prayed as one and cried
 "Save me, save me, save me, save me"

The serpents' fight went on for hours, two monsters soaring up like towers 
And driving down to the depths in a single motion

Suddenly, the serpent's head, shot out of the water bathed in red 
And the serpentine form lay lifeless on the ocean 

CHOIR
Crocodile teeth, lizard's head, bloodshot eye stained ocean read 
Battle won, a victor's pride, the three men thanked the Lord and cried
"Praise God, praise God, praise God, praise God." 

(Cumulus clouds formed heavily in the south, like huge wool packs heaped up in pictures ques disorder. Under the influence of the breezes they merged together, growing darker, forming a single menacing mass. The raft lay motionless on the sluggish wavelets sea and in silence they waited for the storm.)

(For four days the storm had raged as they clung to the mast of their raft for safety. Finally, with their raft wrecked after being bashed against the reefs, they lay sheltered from the pouring rain beneath a few overhanging rocks where they ate and
slept. The next day all trace of the storm had disappeared and what remained of their stock seemed intact. Checking [bad word] brought only heartbreak as it showed that a chance of wind during the storm had returned them to just a few miles north of Port Grauben. So, deciding to try and find the original route they advanced with difficulty over granite fragments mingled with
flint, quartz, and alluvial deposits, eventually reaching a plain covered with bones. like a huge cemetery. mile further on, they reached the edge of a huge forest made up of vegetation of the Tertiary period. Tall palms were linked by a network of inextricable creepers, a carpet of moss covering the ground and the leaves were colorless, everything having a brownish hue. Exploring the forest they discovered a heard of gigantic animals, Mastadons, which were being marshaled by a primitive human being, a Proteus. He stood over twelve foot high and brandished an enormous bough, a crook worthy of this antediluvian shepherd.)

-----------The Forest---------------

Journey on through ages gone, to the centre of the earth
Past rocks of quartz and granite, which gave mother nature birth

Burial ground of ancient man, his life no more is seen, 
journey through his time unknown, I wonder where he's been

CHOIR
Wonder where he's been, wonder where he's been, wonder where he's been

The shore now gone behind the hills, a forest in our sight,
Rocks and distant mountains, bathed in waves of blinding light

Forests from far gone time, no living man has seen, 
private prehistoric world, for you and I a dream

Brownish hue dictates my eye, no colour hides their fear, 
Flowers faded, dull and cold, now bleached by atmosphere

Creatures twisting under trees, huge monsters soaked with rage 
Hidden deep below our earth, a frightening, bygone age

Their shepherd came, now long extinct, a huge primeval man 
The three men filled with disbelief, just turned as one and ran.
