7. Sunstreaker
Of warriors, the Autobots hadde plenty.
Some, in themselves, were worth twenty,
nane moreso than Sunstreaker, a rogue
resplendante in gold veneer. His brogue
was stronge and arrogante as a Lord's,
his style mercenarie, his brusque wordes
oftene scalding, his actions rashe,
but his skill in every bataille, skyrmish, clashe
unsurpassed. His shoulder-artyllery
precyse in clypping back the airbourne fryllery
of the enemie's ruff, his instynct for warre
kene as the edge of a sylver razorre.
But just as a nick, or kinke caused by stresse
would dym swych a razorre's effectivenesse
so too was Sunstreaker made blunte, sore
as a madde dog, snortiousse as a boare
by the mooste pytiful and palest marke
upon his lustrousse bodieworke.
His pryde and artystikke temperamente
extended to his chassis. He spente
long houres loste in selfe-admyratione
(more than he spente at his bataille statione)
and as swyche, was unpopulare,
but, being so colde, did not care.
