Lore
Rhyming poems exist in Common, Erithi, and Inyexi and are taught to all children on Atan Irith. The Common translation is below:
Bark as white as birch,
Flower pale as death,
Leaves with hints of green, take away your breath.
Play in its shadows,
Smell all its flowers,
Touch not the leaves, or death comes in hours.' — Flora of Atan Irith: A Guide to Some of the Continent's Unique Flora
