Where therein the Black Rose Ball is held
When there are no leaves, and the winds do blow
As dancers twirl with elegance beheld
Carefree in the hall’s comfort and free of snow
Here therein, a solid story forthwith
Of one when called, dropped all to lend their aid
Haring through the days for kingdom and kith
Showing how they enjoyed this roll they've played
For their staunch persistence on every task
Their joy when enacting this vocation
Favored such acclaims so now they can bask
In clear light of deserved recognition
This day's praises sung to the assembled throng
As described forth, they're set to go on strong
And such by Our will, We declare for Meara MacNeil this Barony of the Court is theirs,
With these arms
-SPACE FOR ARMS-

Let it be known that, We, Matthew and Fiamuin, Majesties of this Eastern Realm, by right of Arms in this office today, in Our Barony of the Bridge, have this to say:
Where therein the Black Rose Ball is held
When there are no leaves, and the winds do blow
As dancers twirl with elegance beheld
Carefree in the hall’s comfort and free of snow
Here therein, a solid story forthwith
Of one when called, dropped all to lend their aid
Haring through the days for kingdom and kith
Showing how they injured this roll they've played
For their staunch persistence on every task
Joy when enacting their volition
Favored such acclaims so now they can bask
In clear light of deserved recognition
These praises sung to the assembled throng
As described forth, they're set to go forth strong
And such by Our will, Meara MacNeil now named Thane
With arms
SPACE FOR ARMS
Stands, in strength before you
