Throughout this land and
history, the bards have raised their voices in Praise and Honor of Meridies.
They have moved us to laughter and to tears. They have inspired us to war and
to peace, and given us memory and ideals for the future. On this day, one voice
has risen above all others within the spirit of Meridies. We, (Sovereign's
name) and (Consort's name), name Our subject (Recipient's name) as Kingdom Bard
for the duration of Our Reign and charge [him/her] to sing the glories of Our
Realm, to inspire Our people, and to represent Meridies to all the Known World.
Done this (number) day of (month) Anno Societatis (Society year), being (year)
Gregorian.
-To be signed by Sovereign
and Consort, with space for their seals.
