Violet Grey - The Order of the Silver Brooch

Our eyes search for those that have excelled

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

Bestowed by Royals Culann and Honig 

In Barony Carillion, Our set host

At Southern Region War Camp this late spring

Through her creations We have seen her skill

With successful and manifold approach 

We admire and praise all that she’s built 

Now to present Violet with Silver Brooch 

  The Myriad forms of Violet Grey’s art

Are the best exemplar of the East’s heart

Ābele Bierznix - Order of the Silver Brooch

Shall We start to sing

Shall We start to recite

Of Our bold Ābele Bierznix

Bold of delving into deft skills

Of Firing, dyeing, forming 

Myriad of materials

Come let us put hand in hand

And finger in finger-grip

Each grip in the other’s grip

With Majesties

Culan Honig

Heads of Eastern

Tygers therein

Proceed to Panteria’s place

Approached Ābele in order

To bequeath the bright medallion

Found in a box

Betwixt the thrones

A pendent of

Silver and blue

The Silver Brooch brought before

And afforded to Ābele

Anno Societatis LXI

Yasamin Al-Sardaniyya - Order of the Silver Brooch

If one does never want to be ruler, then never enter the tourney.

For without risk, King Donovan and Queen Meghanta would not be before us today at the Yule Revel of the Barony of Bhakail, this Anno Societatis LX

If clothes make the person, then those that make the clothes make the dream. 

For Yasamin al-Sardaniyya has expanded her creations with needle and thread.  Dressing herself and others to suit any situation. Proficiency expanded to match needs.

If one does well, one will have well. 

For Yasamin will ‘have well’ today indeed! Recognition brightly bestowed! And thus, We most happily present Yasamin Al-Sardaniyya the Silver Brooch

Mathghamhain Ua Ruadháin - Silver Brooch

Mathghamhain Ua Ruadháin 
His particular pedantry we praise  
Always East’s set to agree  
That his cognition is key

Being the same as a thing of beauty

Duty Done manipulating 

Tailoring Numbers, turning 

Producing paradigms as used en masse

Class-es those new and Confused

Leaving the learn-ed Effused

Matthew and Fiamuin, Monarchs royal

Toil to find one that marks

The aether with such sparks

Thus as  Occurred In Our Østgarðr today 

Say He shall now reap regard: 

Silver Brooch, so We have charged

This Anno Societatis LIX at The Coronation of Our Heirs
