A is for Azuth, and other Gods

A is for Azuth, and other Gods was a collection of childrens' rhymes made to help remember the names and portfolios of the deities of the Realms.

Description
These books were split into several different volumes, each containing a few verses about the gods of Faerûn.

Volume I
Amaunator, sun's bright light

Shines the truth into man's laws.

Speak His name to stop a fight;

Then, invoke a legal clause.

Beware dread Asmodeus

Both His word and promise sweet.

More able to betray us

Than the devils at His feet.

Auril is merciless and cold

the winter's icy breath.

Spare Her a little food and gold;

So you won't freeze to death

Volume II

 * Azuth the god of wizards all
 * Bane the tyrant, the Black Hand
 * Beshaba (who will) bring forth your doom

Volume VI

 * Ilmater (who) hears the martyr's cries
 * Jergal
 * Kelemvor, Lord of the Dead

Volume XI
Selûne guides us through the night

She is the moon, the stars her tears.

Her sister tries to douse her light,

But she protects us from our fears.

Shar will take your sorrow from you

But beware: her night is dark.

She'll hide your pain, and secrets, too.

And all your joy, and all your spark.

Silvanus, god of all that's wild.

Of nature's danger and its charm.

His glory's not to be defiled,

Or you yourself will come to harm.
