Gone is his laughter, his bellow, his cheer
Gone too his patience, his welcome, his grin
Cynagua mourns, the Mists also,
All the West, across the Known World:
Obadiah the Obstreperous, to Valhalla fairs.

Let him be named with the ones gone before
Let him be writ in the rolls of the slain
The souls too soon taken, reeved from our midst,
Thieved from the mead-hall, the list-field, the land
Stolen from sight, but not from our hearts.
