THE SCENE: 12 Grimmauld Place. KREACHER tells HARRY a syncopated 
story of R.A.B.'s heroic death.

KREACHER:
One day Reggie, lookin' dingy, 
Came all by himself:
"You-Know-Who said, `Don't be stingy,
I'm in need of your elf.'"
Voldy took me into a cave out 
Of the way
To drink a brew he gave out
Given in the worst way
Though my anguish made the Dark Lord smile
I soon left, with a crack
I returned from Voldy's isle
All thanks to Regulus Black

HARRY/KREACHER:
Regulus Black/ uh hu hu hu
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs, Harry
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs, Harry
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs

KREACHER:
Reg said, "Look for
.

HARRY:

.locket


KREACHER:

Take me 


HARRY:

.to the cave!"

KREACHER:
Drank all the potion

HARRY:
Locket he


KREACHER:

to me gave. 

BOTH:
He resolved to die a hero's death
He quite soon was attacked
By some folk who had zero breath
So ended Regulus Black

HARRY/KREACHER:
Regulus Black/ uh hu hu hu
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs, Harry
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs, Harry
Regulus Black/ Hated DEs

KREACHER:
As I from that isle went, Reg said, "Stay mum!"
I kept silent, never told Reggie's mum.
But I have tried each elfish magic spell
A success I lack
Have I failed to execute my Reggie's request..?

HARRY:
His final behest

KREACHER:
I am so distressed

BOTH:
The locket I/you got from Reg



KREACHER (spoken, breaking down):
Oh, I'll never crush it ...never ...never...never ...never! 

HARRY (comforting the elf):
Easy, Kreacher!
We'll avenge Reg Black!
