Orion The Hunter

As Orion, hunting, spurs Pegasus  
armoured and armed as if for cosmic war  
and takes as comrade brave, strong, Perseus,  
 
Perseus, then seeks aid from Centaurus  
on their ride to save Andromeda, more
as Orion, hunting, spurs Pegasus.  
 
She was chained as sacrifice for Cetus  
her father, implored, " Save my child " then roared  
" And take as Comrade that brave, strong, Perseus!"  
 
Perseus enlisted stout Centaurus,  
the bloodhounds canis major and minor,  
as Orion, hunting, spurs Pegasus,  
 
Her folks doomed her then changed their minds " Hark us  
Zeus, " they cried "save our daughter from death's door"  
and take as comrade that brave, strong, Perseus.  
 
As they speed their way via Arcturus  
Lit by Perseus' bright meteors,  
Orion, hunting, spurs on Pegasus  
And takes as comrade that brave, strong, Perseus.
