The Four Horsemen

When the next seal had been opened,
I looked, and behold a white horse.
As a crown was placed on his head,
Pestilence broke out on the Earth.

Soon there went out, a crimson horse,
When the next seal had been opened.
And a great sword was given him,
As War descended on the Earth.

The black horse followed close behind,
Placing it's curse over the land.
When the next seal had been opened,
Famine was loosed upon the Earth.

Lastly there came forth a pale horse,
And he who sat on him was Death.
Hell was unleashed upon the Earth,
When the next seal had been opened

Oooh! A Quatern!

Four quatrains where the first line repeats on lines 6, 11 and 16, with each line having 8 syllables. Really good!
