whose turn about is in
discovering that his idol's feet
are indeed made of imperfect clay
oh how then he must so pain to
readjust his trembling faith
I pity such ignorant fools and
their doting kings
for Christ's precious blood alone
offers man a much better way
so give up all the antics
trinkets and toys
and follow the soul's joy
for Jesus is the finest fisher
of all souls..................
