    Has Widimir ever heard of a tale of frog legs and the princess daughter of Thiudareiks? He scrunched his face as he thought over this for a few minutes. He did remember once there was a folk song that was going around the village people for a while.

    I do remember something of a little song we use to sing when on the march at night in camp. It went something like this:

    Widimir let out a little chuckle as he saw Amalasuntha's face turn red and everyone look over at her.

    Sing a song of rye bread
    Fresh she made it with her hands
    Served up warm before we bed
    She moved from clan to clan


    Hopped from man to man collected
    Treasure for her father they says
    How could the princess do it?
    Well I guess she had frog legs!


    When great Theoderic heard
    That which she had done
    So much he was enraged,
    That she gathered her gold and was gone
