Upon high throne the Iona queen doth sit From lofty seat she lauds over us all The servile answer to her every call She wields a most authoritative hit None shall try to take her top position For she is regent of the regal realm Verily preordained twas her supreme helm We subjects recognize this condition Our eyes are trained on her everything Wavering our attentions must not be She wears the crown of importance so well Hail her reign may it continue to ring The peoples of her land filled with glee Her majesty hath a rule which is so swell

The Queen Of Iona (Italian Sonnet)
Upon high throne the Iona queen doth sit From lofty seat she lauds over us all The servile answer to her every call She wields a most authoritative hit None shall try to take her top position For she is regent of the regal realm Verily preordained twas her supreme helm We subjects recognize this condition Our eyes are trained on her everything Wavering our attentions must not be She wears the crown of importance so well Hail her reign may it continue to ring The peoples of her land filled with glee Her majesty hath a rule which is so swell
