Violet Grey - The Order of the Silver Brooch

They that form beauty that reflects their heart 
Everything that Our Violet Grey has held
Has become fine and celebrated art
This public honor, that is proud to boast

At Southern Region War Camp this late spring
Through her creations We have seen her skill
With successful and manifold approach

Marx Grob von Appenzell - Order of the Silver Tyger

Culann and Honig, Majesties Royal:
In Them is bounty, wisdom, governance. 
Their path in this Kingdom East ever shall
Be to hold forth! Give fruitful abundance.
Turn to Marx Grob von Appenzel at once
They’ve noticed him whose presence has enhanced
 And with such prowess We’d see him advanced
For Marx in word, in work, in countenance,
In presence and on the field of battle 
Coupled with his support and steadfastness 
His throughalness in the combat scrabble 
With such valor proves he does not dabble 
His gentle heart is of great humbleness 
With time long past coming, let's now address
 That his valor so proved, We are moved to 
Proclaim Silver Tyger as is his due 
Done at Tournament of the Daffodils and Thrown Weapons Champions in the canton of Midland Vale, Anno Societatis LX* 

Done in Rhyme Royal after Chaucer’s translation of his contemporary, the Swiss-French poet, Othon of Grandson.
